[alan] Love is the Power in alan's 36th Thread~♥

[pommy48]

They were pretty well done! But even alan said she thought Kanashimi wa Yuki ni Nemuru could have been better haha

I can't really think of a bad alan PV...I guess the Love Moon Light MVs looked kinda weird with that weird glowing ball in My Moonlight representing the moon XD
But I love her Japanese PVs~ ♥

SERIOUSLY?! LOL! I wonder how Avex and the director felt about alan's honesty?

I do wish that there would have been a non movie clip version of 赤壁 〜大江東去〜 and a special version of 久遠の河 with the same PV as the Chinese version like with 心·战～RED CLIFF～/RED CLIFF ～心・戦～.

[pommy48]

Lol I love her for her honesty XD

And it's hilarious because she replied to a fan that was like "alan! I love the PV! It was sooo great!" XD

And oh! Here's a really interesting/funny article from Anecan that tenshi no hane translated! She hasn't posted it here...but I hope it's ok?

Spoiler:

ALAN THE WORLD

Singer and AneCan model alan: her present, past & future.

My family consists out of my father, mother, big brother and me. My father is kind; he’s like a friend to me. My mother gets worried easily. And she’s also kind of scary (laughs).

When I was a real tomboy and about to enter elementary school, I injured the palm of my right hand and needed to get 22 stitches. It was a really big wound. It should’ve hurt but I didn’t feel any pain. It was a strange feeling. When I showed my wound, my mother got realllllly mad and hit me. My father started crying. His face was sopping wet with tears and his nose was running. He was a mess. My father held me the entire time while I got my stitches in the hospital. He seemed to be in more pain than me and he kept on crying.

I have grown into more of an adult since then. To me, ‘no longer getting injured’ equals ‘turning into an adult’. Because I don’t want to make my parents worry about me.

When I went to Tokyo at 20 years old, my parents were really worried. When I first went to Japan - before my debut - my mother came along with me. Some time later, in August 2007, I went to Japan by myself. At first I lived in a monthly apartment of only 18 square meters! Girls have lots of luggage, right? But I didn’t have enough space for all my things. I stuck it out for about a year and a half in that room. If I hold on, my room will become wider and bigger. That gives me a sense of accomplishment. I have currently moved to a slightly bigger room. My mother recently came to see my room for the first time, but it seems she had pictured a slightly bigger room (laughs). The fact that my previous room was only 18 square meters would just worry her.... so I definitely can’t tell her.

Since I entered in junior high school, my mother and I lived in Beijing and my father and brother stayed in our home town to work, so we were far apart. I am constantly wishing that someday our entire family can live in the same house. I think I will also have a husband and kid(s) at that time.

When you’re in love, I think a partner that’s the same age as you is nice. But if I’m looking for a husband, I think a person that’s a bit older than me would be better. To be blunt, if it was a guy of my age, he would want to play around more, right? And I would also want to play around. But if he was an older person, he might not play around that much anymore? I think he would really cherish family. I wonder if there are a lot of young people that are like that?

Love is important. Marriage? Someday. But what’s most important right now is to let much more people hear my music! ....Also because I want to get a bigger room (laughter).

edit: Same here about 大江東去...She really looked so gorgeous in the MV >_< It's a shame that we saw more of the movie than her in the MV
But at least they did something different with both PVs instead of like Shin Sen and Xin Zhan with just one video, but 2 versions.

That article is awesome! I especially LOVE the ending line! It made me laugh.

[pommy48]

Haha isn't she just adorable?

It is because of the ending line that I've decided I must buy all 3 versions of that best album (if it's true)...Who cares if I starve and die? I want to help alan get a bigger room

[Queen Bee]

We must all help alan get a bigger room!

I really want to tell alan on twitter that I want to photograph one of her single covers and an entire album cover and booklet one day but I'm so nervous!

[pommy48]

Lol that'll be cute~ You should totally tweet that to her! (And if you do shoot her..make sure you don't make her wear a weird wig and outfit like for my life's booklet haha)

But tweet to her in a few more days/weeks

She hasn't been online a lot because her doctor tells her not to use her computer so much~

[Queen Bee]

I would definitely not want to make her wear a wig, I love her natural hair. I imagine something with lots of colors and maybe under water.

Why did her doctor tell her that?

[pommy48]

Yes yes! I really wanted something amazing underwater for Megumi no Ame (but I still love the covers ♥ Black haired alan!)

Oh it's because she got LASIK eye surgery, so it's just to not strain her new eyes haha

[Queen Bee]

Ah VERY good reason not to be on the computer a lot.

Black hair and the jade bracelet! I would also love to do an alan photo book that way I could shoot what I want without having to deal with an art director.

I'm listening to Together and realizing why I love alan all over again.

[pommy48]

Oh right...she actually lost her jade bracelet that her mom gave to her X_X She was really sad about it...

Lol I look forward to your collaboration with alan ♥ You can be the next Leslie Kee for Avex stars

I used to dislike Together, but it's really an amazing song after I saw her perform it on voice of you~ It's just so simple, but so deep and moving at the same time ♥

[Queen Bee]

Aww...that is sad. I thought she was wearing it in the 悲しみは雪に眠る or is that a new one?

I hope I can be as well! There are some other singers I want to work with as well but alan, Ayu, Maki, and Kuu are all at the very top and the past few weeks it's been alan more than anyone else!

The first time I listen to Together I started to cry. I'm not sure why but one minute I was fine the next I had tears running down my cheeks. Very few singers can do that to me. So far only alan, KOKIA, and Ayu.

Edit: I hope they don't think we're spamming.

[pommy48]

Oh she still had it during Kanashimi wa Yuki ni Nemuru's PV~ She lost it like a few weeks ago

♥ And it helps that alan is just so pretty? Haha

I rarely cry with alan songs. When I first hear them, I always get goosebumps and I feel like I'm riding a roller coaster~ I did cry a bit with Shiawase no Kane...I believe alan cried when she was recording it.
I'm more amazed than I am emotional with alan. I think it's just because I'm too busy with my mouth hanging open and drooling to focus on crying XD

Oh no~ We're still talking about alan right? And this is the alan thread... so we're fine

[Queen Bee]

Ah. Now I want to go to Japan and try finding it for her. What language should I tweet alan in?

I find her to be absolutely gorgeous! there is just something about her that I just can't put my finger on that just makes her stand out in a crowd to me.

lol. I did drool a little while watching the 久遠の河 and Diamond PV.

So I have to say that 愛は力 is definitely freaking amazing! I hope alan would do a solo version.

[pommy48]

Umm what languages do you know? She usually reply to Japanese and Chinese and rarely to English~

Same here! I mean she's pretty, but magic just happens when there's a camera~ Even in candid shots, she just have this certain air and vibe to her that makes her stand out ♥

Haha I drooled with Ashita e no Sanka when I first saw the PV. I could not believe my ears and my eyes! (I hate flies, but the PV was just so beautiful with the feathers and the vortex? in the sky!)

♥ 愛は力 is one of the best that alan has done! It truly shows off her potential! I don't know if she'll ever sing it live...but I hope she does ♥

[PoetGirl]

oh, thanks pompom for that post. Im always scared for her. I want her to succeed more than ever. So, Im even more sure that best album is their way to promote the artist / make artist more popular.

[pommy48]

^_^ I'm scared too...But I'm trying hard to have faith in Avex...they would be idiots to drop her lol

I know a little Japanese but I'm pretty sure I could get someone to help me translate what I want to say.

Cameras ♥ alan!

I love the 明日への讃歌 PV but yeah the flies are as creepy as hell...eck creepy flies.

I hope she sings 愛は力 live as well! ♥

I hope this BEST album is just a rumor but if it isn't I'm going to stay positive that Avex won't drop her.

[PoetGirl]

it hasnt passed 5-6 years right, she's here for how many? I still feel like she's newbie. I think its 2 years.

I just checked, Ashita e no sanka was released in 2007! so its 3-4 years

I can't believe it's been 3-4 years myself.
