wow, june?! i thought maybe july would be the release date, but i'm not complaining! can't wait!

[ll moments ll]

JFC FINALLY. i can't wait!

浮世踊りビト = Ukiyo Odori BITO = "Fleeting Life" Dance Beat(?)

i think it's beat, but according to my dictionary beat should be "ビート". but the title sounds depressing, LOL.

[KarenPang]

LOL

I myself got stumped when I put 浮世踊りビト in Google Translate

Yahoo Babelfish gave me an even weirder translation for that

so I wouldn't be surprised if it's going to be a ballad . I already heard how Wonderful World !! sounds like

not very exciting , it sounds like something like what they have done before but hopefully when a HQ version's out , I will change my mind on that

[ll moments ll]

i think it will be very...traditional Japanese. since when i was looking at the word, a lot of "Edo" came up, which is the old word for Tokyo. but idk. LOL.

i'm not sure if any of you have been reading Eito news, but Mama Yokoyama passed away on May 16th.

Yoko's mom, who was 50 years old, was out shopping on the 16th when she collapsed in the store and was sent to the hospital right away by a ambulance. She died the same day at 11:51 PM. It seems it was some kind of heart disease/heart attack.

She didn't have any serious illnesses and she had seemed to be healthy just the day before, so the news was very shocking for Yoko. Yoko still had to perform his solo concert and he didn't want to leave a hole in his work schedule. At the climax of every concert, Yoko sang a song that he wrote for his mom called "Onigishi". However for the performance on the day of his mother's death, he started crying and couldn't continue to sing.

The next day on the 17th, Yoko was supposed to go for a location shoot for their show "Kanjani8 no Jyaniben", but he left that to Yasu and Maru and went to where his mother was. The funeral was held on the 18th, of which all the members of Kanjani8 attended. Yoko returned for work for Jyaniben on the 19th.

Yoko is the oldest of three brothers, and their parents divorced when they were young. When Yoko was small, he couldn't say "onigiri" properly and called them "onigishi" instead. His song "Onigishi" was written with the feelings of his mom working hard to raise her children by herself.


関ジャニ∞ 横山母・急死　　16日買い物中に虚血性心疾患50歳

関ジャニ∞横山裕(29)の母親が16日午前、虚血性心疾患のため急死していたことが21日分かった。50 歳だった。
関係者によると母親は16日朝地元・大阪で近所のス-パ-に買い物に行った際、店内で倒れ、すぐに救急車で
搬送されたが、同日午前11時51分に死亡が確認された。

横山は現在全国ソロコン中で母親が亡くなった当日は午後4時から青森市民会館公演を予定してい た。
大きな持病もなく、亡くなる前日まで元気だったそうで、突然の訃報に横山は大きなショックを受 けたものの
「仕事に穴は開けられない」として、予定通りに出演。クライマックスでは毎回、母への思いを歌 にした
自作の「オニギシ」を歌っているが、この日は途中から涙があふれ出し、歌えなくなった。

翌17日は青森で「関ジャニ∞のジャニ勉」のロケに参加する予定だったが、安田章大(25)丸山隆平(26 )に任せて
母の元へ。夜に営まれた通夜に参列した。18日の告別式には関ジャニ∞のメンバー全員参列。
19日大阪での「ジャニ勉」の収録から仕事復帰した。

横山は男3人兄弟の長男で、両親は幼いころに離婚。子供の頃、おにぎりと言えず「オニギシ」と呼んでいたこ とを
歌った「オニギシ」は、女手一つで育ててくれた母への思いをストレートに込めた。

ツアーは22日から再開するが悲しみを抱えながら横山は歌い続ける。

HOCHI

from what i know about the Yokoyama family...she was a single parent since his parents divorced when he was young. i hope Yoko's doing well and may Mama Yokoyama R.I.P.

[Beauty4123]

aww, i feel so bad for yoko! may his mother rest in peace! it's such sad news to hear

[KarenPang]

I hope covers for Wonderful World !! will be out soon

[KarenPang]

aw very nice , adorable & the rainbow wordings are so colourful xD

but what the guys are wearing in the CD only cover ? T_______________________T

it looks like strawberries patches on there

[Beauty4123]

[KarenPang]

CD + DVD type B cracks me up

I wonder whose shadow's that on the bus xD

[Beauty4123]

omg i just noticed that shadow! may it's yoko? who knows

i found a very small preview of Wonderful World!! in case no one else heard it yet:


it sounds fun! the "wonderful wonderful" parts sure are catchy. i'm so weak when it comes to catchy songs

[KarenPang]

I actually have heard of how Wonderful World !! sounds like before . Someone actually recorded the song from Yokoyama/Murakami's radio show a while back

I don't know if it's cos it's being LQ but it sounds like a standard crazy pop song that they're now known for ._.

I want another Osaka Rainy Blues again T-T

[Beauty4123]

oops, i must have forgotten i'm just waiting until the PV to be uploaded to first hear the song in full

i think it sounds a bit less upbeat compared to other songs, but it still sounds like a fun kanjani8 song to me regardless (i tried to hear as much as i can from that LQ preview )

karen, you'll always love osaka rainy blues? why am i the only one who dosen't care for that song? lol. sukiyanen osaka is still my jam though

[KarenPang]

I like their older works as they were very heavily Enka influenced

I think it's this aspect which I feel makes the group unique . It's a pity they did not utilise this Enka aspect that much as compared to before

I know they still use it in some album tracks of theirs but I do want them to release an Enka influenced single again for once .__.

[ll moments ll]

my favorite song is "Zukkoke Otokomichi".

i think they're doing fun/cracky songs as their main singles because it sells and its an image that works well for them, like how KAT-TUN's all "tough" or whatever, lol. but i enjoy their band tunes more like "Rolling Coaster". i think they were marketed as an enka-influenced group at first because i don't think they were meant to debut nationwide. Osaka is a very festival/traditional/arts part of Japan. their early music reflects that. and by early music, just "Kansha ni Eight". (& even that album wasn't even strictly traditionally Japanese too. there's a lot of pop influence.)

because they have only a few enka-influenced songs if you look at it...pretty much just Naniwa Iroha Bushi, Sakura Enka (Oh!ENKA), Mugendai, etc. to name a few.

[KarenPang]

I like those enka songs you listed down , Eirynne

but yeah I know where you're trying to drive your point at when you mention the crazy siao part in Eito where it does sell & that also implies to HEY I WANT TO EAT YOUR FACE tough image in KAT-TUN x)

PV for Zukkoke Otokomichi is still epic even up to this date xD
