Music Lovers [2010.08.22]

This was awesome. An hour long mini-Arashi concert with one of the best/funniest interviews ever. 

Songs they performed are (I think this was the order)

- Moving On 

- Troublemaker

- Medley (Happiness, Believe)

- Yurase Ima, wo (guys only)

- A Day in Our Life (guys only)

- Fight Song (guys only)

- Refrain (SO BEAUTIFUL OMG)

- Summer Splash (end credits only D=)

and during the interviews they asked questions regarding 'Who is the most OO', really funny. They were rated by 100 girls, Kuroski Meisa and themselves <3 Haha. Poor Aiba got bullied a bit. and Nino got bullied at the very end to. They did this special portion where they performed just to a bunch of guys and it was so cool. They looked like they were having lots of fun singing to the guys and the guys looked like they were having a huge amount of fun too. It's nice to know guys like Arashi so much. Haha. 

and the performance of Refrain at the end was so beautiful and cool and nice and.. kyaa~ *fangirl squeal*. It was a really cool episode. People should see it =) I laughed really hard watching it. ^^;; 

Arashi on M-Sta

This isn't so much as a "news" post so much as a flail post xD

Arashi's going on M-Sta for the 1000th episode special, but that's not the good part. The good part is they're performing Troublemaker AND Yursae, ima wo =D=D Yay!

but I don't know if I'll be able to watch it. M-Sta is on Fridays at 8pm and I have to study until 9:40pm... ugh. so trouble some

FNS 2009

I did manage to catch the later half of it. That means I managed to catch Arashi's performance of Ashita no Kioku and DBSK's performance of some songs I don't know cause I don't listen to DBSK xD

I missed their first perf. but ah well.

I'd just like to say they all looked gorgeous in their silver suits. ^^

stupid of me - I have exams today but I didn't study at all. *laughs*

NINO ON SCP!!

OH MY GOD YES! FINALLLY!!

I AM SO HAPPY!! *Dies*

Ever since I watched my first SCP episode I wished that all the Arashi members would go on and couldn't wait for Sho and Nino's turn. When Sho's episode was announced I was happy but NINO - I've been waiting on Nino's the most (no offense Sho >_<'')

I've always found Nino so interesting, so I hope his interview will also be very interesting ^^ Cannot wait!

Waah... so happy la..

oh and I watched Yasahii Jikan with Nino and Nagasawa Masami and it's so cute <3. I think I love this drama. ^^

Sho on SCP ^^

yay~!
Sho-kun will be the next guest on SCP!!
it will be on Sunday, June 14th at 18:00 (2:00am for me T.T)

Can't wait =D

Me oozing disgustingly -_-''

oh. my. god. Performance for Crazy Moon~Kimi ha Muteki~ on Utabana

The performance.. so... good. Dancing. Oh my god. *dies* Like... okay, Truth perf. was nice but THIS performance was like "ASDFJMGFDFD!!!" No joke. It just made me like the song THAT much more...... (which means I'm LOVING the song *laughs*

And they all looked so good...

BUT even after all that hot... hot.. H- *cough**ahem* - even after all the nice dancing, I'm still missing the really happy cracky songs. T_T

but still. So... good... so gooood!! *puddle of goo*

2009.04.26 - Utaban perf. - Crazy Moon ~Kimi wa Muteki~

Enjoy watching =D

Ohno on M-Sta

Apparently Ohno is going to be on M-Sta alone singing his own song Kumori Nochi Kaisei. ^^

I think it'll be interesting to see riida alone without any of the members with him xD I bet all 5 of them (especially MatsuJun and Nino) will watch him when the episode airs on TV =D

::EDIT::

February 27th (Friday)
(20:00) - Ohno on Music Station [Asahi] - (3:00)

aww... it's going to be weird seeing Oh-chan all alone without the members there...

Some bad news and some good

As always, good news first.
This doesn't directly involve an Arashi member but...

January 29th (Thursday)
(21:00) - Oguri Shun on Tunnels no Minnasan - (4:00)

eh.. even if you're not a Shun fan, if you're a MatsuJun fan you might want to watch
Apparently Shun will talk about his private relationship with Jun.
=D
As it's well known, these two are pretty good friends
so. it's something worth watching (^_^)

now... the bad news...

*sigh*
I was reading Tenjo Style's vox and...
Apparently this Friday - Uta no Onii-san will not be airing.
(>_<!!)
We have to wait 2 weeks for episode 3!!!
*cries*
I was really looking forward to the next episode though （´△｀）

so.. there you have it. Some good news, some bad.

[SCP] Guest - Arashi

My review for SCP - the best fricken interview EVER. I hope they have a 2nd one .. or a deleted scenes. Cause they probably talked for 2 hours AT LEAST. >_>

The Talk:
50 minutes was too short. (>_<!!) They should've talked for like.. two hours or something! Actually, they technically only talked for about 40 minutes if you take away the performances. WHY?! Arashi is so interesting. *sigh* But... anyways, to the actual talk. I loved it. Somehow, after every interview, no matter how many things you hear over again you always learn something new out of it. ... They talked about a lot. First impressions of each member, important moments in their Arashi career, their debut etc. etc. The interview was... gah! It just gave off this really warm "I love Arashi" sort of feeling. ... I can't explain (-_-;;)

First Impressions:
Ohno
Sho - Seems to be good at dancing
Nino - Picked his nose without doing the dance practice

Ohno? Picking his nose and not dancing? Believeable. A rebel? Haha, oh that makes me laugh. But I guess he wasn't really being a rebel, he was.. just... being Ohno? I don't know, it's cute. He was told to go home, and he went home xD Oh Riida... you deserve a hug *hugs* I think bottom line is... the rest of the Arashi members thought Ohno was just plain weird but.. they all know better. ^_^

Sho
Aiba - Wearing a school Uniform
Nino - He got angry with me

The starter of many things in the JE world. The "Daigaku" Boom, the Rapping era (It's hard to believe Koki was inspired by Sho.. I mean... the difference between Sho's rapping and Koki's is... >_<;;) Anyways. Haha. Sho. His temper, it's probably not something that is funny, because it seems like a pretty scary temper but when you see Sho (the mother hen) no.. how can it not be funny? I read from 嵐's vox that the kid who threw the noodles into the sink was Kame? Oh, poor Kame xD But it's a bit ironic, Sho can't stand it if people don't clean up his mess... and apparently his room is freakishly messy. *tsk**tsk*

Jun
Aiba - Small but speaks with a lot of confidence
Nino - Dancing with a lot of effort

Aiba. I love you. His view of things is so... haha xD He says he was suprised that Jun was so "authoritive" even though he was short... but.. wasn't Sho like.. puny? I think Aiba needs to re-think many of his theories about people. Also.. somehow.. Jun. He was so serious, even as a kid. Maybe a bit too serious (^^;;) But that's cute. I <3 (I am sooo biased xD)

 Nino
Sho - good at baseball
Jun - liar

Nino. Such a twerp even at a young age. I feel sorry for Jun, I swear, Jun and Nino probably didn't get along as Juniors. I make a bet, Nino probably made fun of Jun when they were juniors. I mean.. you can easily assume that from their first impressions of each other. But.. I love Nino. He's my niiban. Such a sneaky little bastard xD And Sho, your impression of Nino is not an "impression" it's a known fact. =D

Aiba
Sho - Who is this guy?

They should stop bullying Aiba. (T_T) I wanted to know like.. the other members first impressions of him. In fact, I wish I could heard EVERY MEMBERS impressions of EVERYONE. Not just two (or in Aiba's case - one) for each. It's not enough. What did Jun and Nino think of Aiba (they were all in MAIN together), and.. seriously.. what the hell did Ohno think of everyone?

Beautiful Days: - It was pretty. The set was pretty, but they don't really do much in it but stand. Although it's a good song... okay, I said I liked all the performances but.. it's not a lie. I mean I didn't dislike the performance it's just.. they didn't really do much for me to judge (^^;;) The set was nice though!! (I know I said it twice xD)

Past the first impressions each member talked about how much they wanted to quit when Arashi was about to debut. Okay.. well.. Nino, Ohno and Sho. Thank GOD THEY DID NOT QUIT!! Oh my god.. but you know. It's a surprise isn't it? You make a group, where three people are wanting to quit, and somehow, they manage to pull through 10 years later as one of the most popular, closest groups. It's.. really sort of like "wow" and it's when you learn these things that you feel greatful. I mean, if Nino, Sho or Ohno quit.. Arashi wouldn't be Arashi. I'm so greatful.. so glad Aiba had a passport, so glad Ohno didn't just... drop out, so glad Nino and Sho decided to quite in December and not earlier, because any earlier, they wouldn't have been in Arashi.

But it's sort of amusing. Sho and Nino were like "Shit.. we're gonna Debut!!" and totally thinking it was the end of the world. Normal people would probably be like "WOOOOOO!!" xD Again, thank you god.

Kaze no Mukou e: - The beginning was cute. Did anyone spot the Juntoshi love right there? =D The dance is so cute/funny, I have to admit I started laughing halfway through the performance because it was just.. really ridiculous. But it fits the song, the dance. Very up-beat, fast, doing a lot, Jun's hairstyle is different xD Good performence, I'm happy they added in some choreography. - Oh... Sho.. pants + Shoes combi? No. Ugly. Bad (-_-;;) (oh and I'm not sure when this song comes up... so I'll just insert it here)

Then they talk about special memories. Well.. the talk about Nino, Sho and Ohno wanting to quit stemmed from Ohno saying how debuting was a special memory. But. Past that.

Sho - 2000 first concert
.........the costume nearly gave me a heartattack. =D

Aiba - Mayonaka no Arashi
Arashi's first TV show. Where they did daring things... really, the things Arashi goes through in their TV shows... I <3 them. It was a unanimous vote though, that's pretty.. wow. (o_o;;) - Except Ohno, but he's special xD

Sho + Jun - 2002 Here we Go! tour
Heard about this story. I still think it's sweet.. I mean... I think having their "talk" during this tour really helped them pull through. It really seems like without this talk.. they would've disbanded or something. (-_-;;)

Jun - 2005 HanaDan

Of course. HanaDan, Arashi's breaking point. They're popularity sky-rocket... also, the time Jun met Mao. Of course it's memorable for Jun... *winkwink*. *cough* anyways, but really. I can understand why - aside from the JunMao this is a memorable thing for Arashi. I find it sweet that the members are able to watch each other work as just... viewers. It's amusing. Especially the whole "Osaka Jo" dressing room thing. "Where's MatsuJun? Where is he?".... 1 hour later... "ZOMG IT'S MATSUJUN" *CLAPCLAPCLAP!!* xD Oh, Arashi are such dorks.

Ohno, Sho, Nino, Jun - 2006 Asia Tour

Aiba... uh... where are you in this? (he's bullied again xD) but... really their "2nd first concert". It's true thought isn't it? I'm really glad they have a 2nd Asia tour this year to ^_^ Can't wait for an American tour!! =D

Aiba - TV Shows (yet again)

Aiba seems to enjoy variety/TV shows with Arashi more than doing concerts and lives and stuff. But I guess I can understand why. I mean, concerts are fun and all, but it's part of the job, everyone has them, but TV shows ... they're a bit more special in a way. *shrugs* Aiba's a special guy. ^_^

Truth: - I will love this performance, always. The beginning was funny =P Jun teaching Aiba had to do the spinning kick (^_^) It was good, Aiba does such a pretty looking kick *hugs* I love it. It looks so cool, and natural... and... *babbles on for about 5 minutes* - Anyways, awesome. I love performances of Truth =D *ish happy* Everyone looked really cool here!

the end.

My long review... with random hints of me putting my opinions in here and there. If you're an Arashi fan, new or old - I demand you watch this episode of SCP *glares*

Music Lovers

I watched the Music Lovers performance with Arashi thanks to the clips on Tenjo Style's vox. ^_^

I have to admit those fans who got to attend were pretty lucky, it was seriously like a mini-concert that ARASHI held with only 5 songs.

The songs by the way were

-Oh Yeah!
-A Day in our Life
-Love so Sweet
-Kaze no Mukou e
-One Love

although the One Love performance was cut and they just played the song while showing some other videos apparently.

Everyone looked really nice, although I was mostly only paying attention to MatsuJun xD My god there was a moment when the members walked into the crowd (not literally there was probably a walkway or something) and the fans were all like reaching out to touch them xD Lucky lucky girls... I would love to have a grab at Jun =P *cough*cough*

edit -

I watched the talk portion.. laughed so hard xD Members complaining about MatsuJun's huge ass rings and then complaining about Sho's fake jeans. (Sho's thing is totally hilarious... you'd expect an idol to wear something more cool but no, he wears fake jeans that are actually sweat pants).

Arashi + This Week = AWESOME

How can I start off? This week has been filled with some awesome Arashi stuff so far. First there is their appearance on Utaban which was HILARIOUS. My god... I've never laughed so hard at watermelons and waterguns before xD It was really sweet, they celebrated Nakai's birthday... although... *snickers* I'll leave it to you to figure out what happened =P.

Next off, of course we have... *drumroll* the "Truth" and "Kaze no Mukou E" PV's that came out.

FIRST - The "Truth" PV... oh my god.... I nearly died in a puddle of my own goop after seeing this PV. It's so god damn hot, I am sure you've all already seen it but I need to flail about it at the moment. I've seriously replayed the PV so many times over and over and over again it's not even funny xD. One thing that SERIOUSLY got me in this ENTIRE PV... MatsuJun's random KICK. I was like... "dude... wtf?!" and laughed my ass off for the longest time wondering what the point of it was. But I have to admit, he has one NICE kick. Hahaha. =P

Here's some random screenshots. The angst.. the angst!!!

Next I'm gonna talk about the "Kaze no Mukou E" PV to. I find it hilarious... it's a COMPLETE 180 degree turn from the "Truth" PV. It's all light, and happy... but there's no real dancing, but I still love it a lot. We get beautiful shots of Sho's arms and.. in general they just all look so hot xD *obviously I cannot produce a straight thought*. One thing though... if you think it looks like a "backstreet boys" PV - I seriously don't blame ya. =P

I don't really have as much to say, although... what MatsuJun was wearing, it looked retarded but surprisingly it fit him very well =P Haha. That's MatsuJun for you, looks good in anything.

Now.. some random screenshots. 

Obviously.. you can tell I liked how they looked in Kaze no Mukou E more... haha nah, I'm just kidding. I thought they looked awesome in both but the pictures that came out for Kaze no Mukou E just look better than the ones for Truth.
