[ARASHI] There's only Happiness in our Beautiful World; the 31st thread ♥

preview of Ohno's solo Hung up on



The rap lyrics are written by Sakurai . I don't mind from what I have heard there but yeah there's the autotune :O

At least , it's not a ballad this time round haha

[Midori-chan]

^ Somehow this makes me sad.
I mean, trying out new things is fine with me, but all the recent songs had auto-tune: "Lotus", "Boom Boom", "Mada mune sekai e" and now even Riida's solo.

It seems like the composers think that Arashi's voice are not good enough (anymore) and now they auto-tune them.


But whatever...seems like I have too high expectation in Arashi's music right now, because the last albums were all so nice.

[KarenPang]

it's hard to please everyone at the end of the day . Some will like autotune , some will not

for me , my concern's whether Beautiful World will sound good/consistent because I have listen to albums that consist of both group & solo tracks & usually , either 1 will bring the whole album down

I rather they released Beautiful World in a 2CDs edition like what they have done for Time & Dream"A"Live but guess you can't have everything ._.

But if you really don't like the stuff they're currently doing , there's always their older works to fall back on which I still feel their older stuff has some of their best stuff they did til this date

omg this might just be my favorite solo of ohno's! i've always wanted another hot song from him, since "Top Secret" is so short! i so cannot wait for the full version! i haven't felt a song to be HOT since sho's "T.A.B.O.O.", haha. this is what i love to hear!

...but is it just me or do i not hear auto-tune? i dunno why i didn't want so much auto-tune from arashi when "Mada Minu Sekai e" first leaked, but i really don't care anymore! as long as the song's hot.

i know, i might just be biased. but i can't hate or even dislike an arashi song, to be completely honest. it's the truth.

I really liked Shizukana Yoru ni but I love Ohno's hot dance songs too!! Sounds good!

And I don't think they auto-tune them because they think they're not good enough. They're doing it because it's highly popular right now.

sho's new commercials for Aflac:




sho is just so beautiful in these commercials. i love how he talks!
(lol at the duck wagging it's tail at the end of the first CM )

Suga Shikao is FINALLY going to release his own acoustic take of Aozora Pedal !!!!!!

http://www.office-augusta.com/suga/i...n.html#RELEASE

OMG , this's something I'm waiting to happen for the longest time ever ;___; Sugarless II will be released to celebrate his 15th anniversary this year

He also going to cover KAT-TUN's Real Face *__________________*

[Beauty4123]

YAY! i'm gonna listen to "Aozora Pedal" later just to celebrate!

[KarenPang]

This's going to be oh so good to hear Suga's take on Aozora Pedal & also Real Face

I respect him as a musician as I don't think there's any other person who does such distinct unique stuff unlike Suga

Waiting in anticipation to hear his take on both songs now whee

I agree... It looks too plain...

[Beauty4123]

well, i like the way "World" looks, lol. but i think it's a bit too plain, too.

edit: totally forgot! happy birthday to nino! it's his birthday today, right? or was it yesterday? but either way, i wish him a happy birthday! i'm such a bad fan.

[Beauty4123]

"Toku made" has leaked!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzsOjlIHShw

...and so has aiba's solo "じゃなくて".
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVU7S5oqCHA

i really like both songs! aiba's solo is nice & fun. it's totally different compared to"Magical Song", which was kinda electro-pop(ish) i guess? lol. and "Toku made" is really cute, too! i love the "ready steady go, let's sing a song" parts.

[Bigtop]

It seems the lengths are quite respectable to average around 4 minutes 25 seconds (remember - 18 tracks on one disc, and one disc can only hold up to roughly 80 minutes of music!!!)...

[Beauty4123]

nino's solo, "どこにでもある唄。" has leaked.


wow....nino never fails to give such a beautiful ballad!

[Bigtop]

The covers are out!!! But, I have to be honest about this, I'm thinking that the covers look plain - like that Beautiful World tour logo... (I'm saying that this is not the best cover shoot I've ever seen!)

Limited edition

[Beauty4123]

they may be plain, but i think because the guys look good (to me ) i don't mind, haha. sure, there needs to be some color, but...sometimes simplicity might be the best. i just hope the booklet has just a bit of color, at least, lol.

but anyway, although they could be much better overall, i still like them & totally prefer these covers over Lotus!

[dreamland2.0]

They look cute!

[Beauty4123]

according to tokyograph, arashi is now the first artist to sell 5 million DVDs! that's amazing! everyone must love watching their concerts, and you can't blame them for that! their concerts are always so much fun!! congrats to arashi!
