Amazement
January 8, 2009 at 9:56 pm | In Hello! Project, Japan | Leave a CommentSo I downloaded SNSD’s new mini album “Gee” today and it’s totally official. i’m in love with these girls.
I really do love this album! and i’m only the 4th song in so far.
It’s just….. excellent.
The songs are up beat and happy when they need to be and there’s a slow-ish song that really shows off each girl’s voice. it’s really great!
I was walking home listening to Gee the single today and it just makes me smile. it’s such a great upbeat, feel-good song and really made me walk in time with the beat.
fantastic.
Got forced to download Wonder Girls album The Wonder Years last night by a certain someone. and i really am not too sure about it.
I like Tell Me but that’s kind of it. i think i need to listen to it again before i give my absolute opinion though.
but you can’t deny they’re all good vocalists.
*nod*
I’ve been thinking about my japan trip and apart from being totally over the top excited, i’ve compiled a list of things i MUST do while i’m there:
In no particular order:
1~ Go to a Hot Spring – it’s just a must do. i think i’m more comfortable about being naked with people in a giant pool of hot water than a guy would be. but i’m wandering what girlies do about their top…. parts. lol!
i also need to sing Momiji’s song while i’m in there. JUST to be annoying. or the english version.
2~ Visit the H!P official stores – just…. just….. i gotta do it ok??
3~ Visit Otome Road – also another must-do for an anime/cosplay fan.
4~ Go to some kind of H!P concert – what? you mean i can’t go to the country i worship and go to see the music group i also worship while i’m there??? *punch*
5~ Visit Kyoto – i wanna go see some geisha and that awesome huge bridge and feed those deer dammit!
6~ Visit Harajuku – cause i mean, doi, where else am i going to get Takuya Angel stuff??
7~ Visit a shrine and take a photo of or with a shrine maiden – just cause they’re so Moe.
8~ Kareoke! – Cause what’s better than sitting in a teeny sound proofed room and singing your heart out to random songs you hardly know?!
9~ go to one of those awesome underground shopping malls – cause it’s just so japanese, man!
10~ Go to a Purikura boothe – a real one i tell you!
^_^V yey!
Previews!
January 8, 2009 at 10:40 am | In Hello! Project, Japan | Leave a CommentOk so i’ve been cheating and listening to previews of a few songs that are about to be released.
among them are Co.no.mi.chi by Buono! which is very Buono! sounding. i love it but then again i love Buono!
They have a particular sound to them which just reminds me of the summer holidays. i listened to Cafe Buono! almost non-stop last summer and they’re particular sound just brings me back to then. You can listen to a lowish quality version here.
I’ve been trying to scout around for Koharu’s new singles Happy Happy Sundae too but i can’t find anything other than a bad live recording from the Wonderful hearts concert and i must say that at this very moment i’m not very impressed. it just doesn’t sound like it will sound good…. this can also be found here i have to say though that i do like the chorus.
I think Koha lovers will like this. others…. it make take a few listens to get used to it.it doesn’t sound quite as obnoxious as a Papancake which i love so hopefully it won’t be too much like a cheese grater on our brains.
The outfit is very Midori from Guitar Hero too.
I’ve decided i’m completely in love with Naichou Kamo too. it’s just……. great to listen to. here’s a live recording.
I have to say though this song goes weirdly well with the Resonant Blue PV. check it out. either the song goes great with the PV or the person did a great job mixing it.
ALSO!!!!!
Looks like i’ll be able to actually buy Naichou Kamo, Wonderful Hearts and Elder Club, co.no.mi.chi and tonnes of other stuff in april because I’M GOING TO JAPAN! i was worried cause my friend sent such a short reply to a message on facebook i sent her, i was going “shit shit, doe that mean she doesn’t want me to go anymore” but it was only her husband replying! I’m going out there!!! I’m going to be going and staying with her in their apartment, then about mid week we’re gonna head up to Tokyo and spend a couple nightsin Tokyo and then head back down and hopefully stop off at Kyoto on the way back! We’re gonna go to hotsprings and all sorts. I am SO excited! there’s so much i want to do i don’t think i’ll know where to start!
I’ve started to study japanese aswell.
I’m using this book Genki. it’s pretty good. haven’t done anything major yet, gotta wait till Paul finds his copy so we can study it together. lol
but i have a book called essential japanese and i was testing myself in the test sections and i knew alot more than i thought i did. i guess you pic up alot more watching anime than i thought.
anyway, i think i’d be able to get by, i can ask for a lot of things and everything, i just gotta brush up on my hiragana so i can read stuff. >w<
SO HAPPY!!!!!!!!
