Goto Maki I -Using Loneliness and SEXY-

[ladytaboo]

Not a fan of what she's wearing, but seeing her singing again has got me sooo excited. Can't wait for the first single!

[♥ you!]

This place is dead!!

-brings back to life-

[♥ you!]

Ohh did you just update the front page? Never saw that picture before.

[♥ you!]

Very pretty

Ohh you have the translated lyrics from how to use SEXY? Would you mind posting the ones for LIFE?

[♥ you!]

Thanks for the translation

I hope we get an announcement for a new release soon.. Hurry Avex!

[♥ you!]

^ Ohhh I want the limited edition! How long will this sale last for?

[♥ you!]

Ohh okay. Thank you so much for the links

[♥ you!]

Ohh I forgot she's at a-nation. Hopefully she's on the dvd

[♥ you!]

^^ have you tried "Ekizo na DISCO". It's from her third album but it fits right in with the How to use SEXY album

Ohh I love her old stuff :<. Mostly the singles though, her album tracks are kinda bleh for me.

[♥ you!]

I thought Maki would be performing at a-nation soon..but it isn't for another like 2 weeks ;-;. I wonder if that duet with Ayu she is supossed to do is true, maybe they will perform Who...again like on Ayu Ready?

[*Petit*]

Wow that training certainly paid off! Good job!

[♥ you!]

"Saving All My Love for You" by Whitney Houston.

I think that she was shouting a little too much, but I did like her control on the last note.

[Amai Yume]

thanks!!!!
I just saw part of the performance and I actually thought she did a good job. Plus she looked great there!!

[Amai Yume]

lol
here's a slightly longer clip of her singing Saving All My Love For You

I'm excited about the prospects of Maki working with the Avex production individuals I'm fans of.

It's highly unlikely that she will perform songs from her H!P discography. In addition to Avex having to license those songs out, I'm sure they want to move away from her idol image. It's sad that her classic tunes will probably be retired, only to see brief appearances at H!P events once in a blue moon. Some of my favorites are:

Scramble
Nagadenwa
Hareta Hi no Marine
Himitsu
Namida no Hoshi
LIKE A GAME

[Amai Yume]

lol, nope
Its always been there hehe
She looks pretty huh?

Huge thanks to Final Wish who translated all the lyrics from How to use SEXY!!!
Here ya go

my eyes become teary
you aren't here anymore
my sadness over time...
my joy over time...
i put it all away in my heart

let's continue to live
without running away
from things we find hateful

because a bright day
will light up again
let's continue to walk straight ahead

because the morning light
will rise again
let's continue to walk on confidently

...

the words are blurring
your words that day
the confusion...
the temptation...
i can't go back to that time

let's continue to live
searching for
the things we love

even in the pouring rain
i guess a plant can wither away
let's continue to live with simplicity

but, once in a while
it's OK to get wet out in the rain
let's continue to walk on confidently

... ...

let's continue to live
without running away
from things we find hateful

because a bright day
will light up again
let's continue to walk straight ahead

because the morning light
will rise again
let's continue to walk on confidently

because the morning light
will rise again
let's continue to walk on confidently

let's continue to walk on confidently

Aw, I love those lyrics. So sad and sweet. Didn't she sing LIFE has her final song when she announced leaving H!P?
