I do not blog about my life. This is a journal of random thoughts of whatever interests me.
A temporary spot of existence where memories are stored for a period of time until they are forgotten...

As it is a common courtesy to knock before entering, nudge me in any of the comment boxes, and I'll let you in.

I want to keep this post unlocked, so it'll just be me rambling on about two PVs and a little special something after that.



Yuzu's new PV for their to-be-released single titled いちご Ichigo (Strawberry). Truthfully, I didn't really like the song after hearing the demo. But after listening to this good quality, full version, its not too bad. So far this year, they've released a ballad, a folky tune and this time one of their hyper songs. Maybe I'll like this more after watching a live performance. The PV..!! Its weird. ahaha, but very artistic. And I constantly want to burst out laughing. Very very cute.. basically they are ants wanting to taste the sweetness of strawberries. I particularly like their costumes, the additional pair of arms that move along with their original arms result in them looking extremely comical. Like all their previous upbeat songs, its a catchy tune and the PV is hilarious.



Coming Century's new PV for their upcoming new single Hello, Goodbye. Its definitely more classy than Spirit. What pants is Ken wearing?? O.o The song is good I guess, I mean even if its good I rarely listen to JE songs anyway. keke.. The tune is addictive, but it could be a little faster, and the middle stance becomes a bit too repetitive. The PV is surprisingly less idolish. And only 3 people on screen rather than the usual 6 is a little refreshing. Sometimes 6 people are a little too much to concentrate on. I like the concept of the masked people, the black classy couches and their simple attire. I guess they need to add the rabbit with horns to spice that table up a bit, otherwise I don't know what are they going to do with that empty space. Favourite part: probably the clapping parts, I like the sound of hands clapping. hehe..

The guys themselves. Go, unfortunately is aging and shrinking. And I'm not fond of guys wearing (1)inner black sleeves underneath a T-shirt (2)hats ;D & (3) pink. bwahaha.. The first and only thing I constantly noticed about Okada was what happened to his arms?? O.o Its getting way too huge and looks weirdly tight with those sleeves on. Ok, I know that is just my taste XD Ken needs to get his old hairstyle back!!! This is okk.. there have been worst, but I miss his mushroom hair ;D

Some oldies for a change, when chinese music was at its peak. Albums being released nowadays are so crappy. Its good to relisten to old songs for the sake of reminiscence. This song 一剪梅 comes from a 1984 drama of the same name. A very well known song, it has been resang many times. This version I've attached is, I think, by the original singer - the famous 费玉清 Fei Yu Qing. Renown for his soothing voice and duck neck singing style (coined by me XD). He sticks his head out when he sings, oh but he sings brilliantly live. And don't be fooled by his gentleman look, he talks about sick jokes all the time on his music show. I spend an entire bus journey in Taiwan watching a compilation of them ;D

Did a quick scan of interesting pages before I give the book away. Actually, it was really only Ken's I wanted ;D, but decided to do some of the groups that were less likely to be scanned, and some of the actresses that I liked.

*Suppose to have the scan of the cover here,
but what do you know, its a shot of 17 year olds topless.
I was almost too embaressed to pay at the counter.*
