it's my soul [KJ3 MIX]: i think the album version's more "noisy" (there's extra instrumentals). but yeah, very minimal change.

Osaka Romanesque: like "it's my soul" there's little change. maybe a tweak in the arrangement.

Mugendai: i totally forgot how the single version matches up with the album version, LOL. (i deleted the Sukiyanen, Osaka single off my harddrive. :O)

*nods* at KJ3 mix for It's My Soul . Maybe miminal music adjustments were done up for It's My Soul & Osaka Romanesque

Mugendai - LOL I have the single on hand . You want me to rip it for you ?

4th day:

x->1->1->1->1 - Kanjani8 - 112,568 + 46,726 + 15,575 + 8,206 = 183,075
2->2->2->2->3 - Shounannokaze - 5,525 + 5,208 + 5,361 + 4,495 + 3,370 = 23,959
2->5->3->3->2 - DREAMS COME TRUE - 4,824 + x + 4,261 + 3,692 + 3,381 = 16,158

imo I like it even though I still say that at this point in time I still adore their 1st mini album Kansha ni Eight & KJ1 F.T.O

PUZZLE's having said that & it has Musekinin Hero in there which was the song that changed my whole music perception of the guys

[Maemi]

NEWS is a better band than Kanjani8. Unfortunately, they're like Kat-Tun to me, very ordinary

O_O

are you sure ? I can agree with you on that statement should I didn't listen to all of K8's album tracks since they had cracked & crazy singles & I had that assumption but my mind was changed completely after I heard their material

[Maemi]

Well Karen, it's very possible I wasn't paying enough attention while I was listening to their album, because I was really excited about something So of course I'll give them another chance, I heard only 3 or 4 songs.

ok but I feel that if you have the time & etc , listen to their album discography backwards so that you can see or should I say hear the band's music transition as each album goes by

if you want me to upload their albums or something let me or ll moments ll / Eirynne know about it

a bid way to brainwash (oops I mean convince/persuade) another person to join the crazy zone of Kanjani8

[Maemi]

^It's ok, I have nautiljon <3
I couldn't stand News's color too, and then i realized how catchy it is. Don't you think they're better than Kanjani8? lol

[Beauty4123]

okay, for me personally, i do like NEWS better than KJ8. but i haven't listended to all of kanjani's discography. i only heard their crack singles, lol. i've known NEWS longer and before KJ8, too. so what i gotta do, i guess, is hear more of their discography to actually see who's better. but i'm really bad at choosing, so i honestly just love them both ryo fits better with kanjani8, though. no doubt about that.

[ll moments ll]

i suppose music-wise, NEWS is much more easier to "get into". however, KANJANI8, their strong point is their bond as a group. i'm sure if you see them either live or on TV appearances, your perception will change, i think. LOL. they're comedians outside the music scene, while music-wise, they are a modern TOKIO.

i don't exactly have a problem with NEWS as a group, but they really don't have a certain "strong point" to them. they just....exist.

but i think you have to be really into the JE fandom to figure that out. if i were in JE for the music, i wouldn't even listen to anyone other than KAT-TUN & KinKi Kids, personally. LOL.

no I think both bands are equally talented in their own respective way (ugh biased part in me talking because I support 12 Johnny's bands so )

like what ll moments ll / Eirynne have said & I want to add on , K8 offers something different as compared to NEWS & between both bands , you definitely can tell who has a more stronger & united bond & that goes to K8 .

Even up to now , NEWS hasn't stuck me as a band that feels united & they come together just for the sake of recording/releasing material . I suppose things became a bit better after Uchi & Kusano left

Music wise , I respect both bands . I was so scared of trying K8's music cos I thought maybe their album material is the same as their singles which're so whack & crazy but it's not true anymore

5th day:

x->1->1->1->1->1 - Kanjani8 - 112,568 + 46,726 + 15,575 + 8,206 + 8,528 = 191,603

I don't know who was the guest for SCP & yes I saw it Eirynne

you're not scared that you will get skinned up alive by your mum ?

omg I love their performance of Kawaita Hana (Dry Flower) + Puzzle earlier on that I saw on SCP even though I wish that they did My Last Train

They further proved to me why they're awesome when comes to their album tracks & Maruyama has grown on me a LOT after Uta no Onii-san & Subaru's voice's just wow

I can't help but stared at Okura & Ryo @_@ . Okura looked HOT & spiffy during their Puzzle performance & he looked great when he tied his hair during the performance of Kawaita Hana
