I honestly don't know what album or singles to try to get into Mihimaru GT at all...what songs/albums do you recommend?
I still consider the girl's voice to be too high...but I'll still give it a shot.
It still would have been better if Double's sister's vocals were in the song somehow....so its a true DOUBLE & Namie collab.
Overall, it's a great song.
Perfume lovers, I come bearing gifts! It's "HAPPY!" Perfume's TV SHOW! that I found on Veoh....
The program, titled "Friday TV Lab HAPPY," will air on NTV at 12:25am on Friday nights. The show will have Perfume reporting and discussing interesting entries gathered from various celebrity blogs throughout the week. Also on the show are popular model Naoko Tokuzawa and comedienne Sumiko Nishioka.
Double and Namie Amuro will collaborate on DOUBLE's Collaboration album called, ":The BEST COLLABORATIONS" It will come out on May 28th!
I apologize for not being on much, I'm busy with school..and it's finals week for moi. I could use some additional prayers if you can spare any for me.
I love MISIA, you must try her out soon! Doctor Groove Heroine's orders...ne?
MISIA is a female Japanese R&B artist that debuted in 1998 under the BMG Japan label. In 2002 she changed to Rhythmedia Tribe (affiliated with avex). On May 1st, 2007 MISIA left avex trax to go back to her former record label, BMG Japan. In 1998 she debuted with the single Tsutsumi Komu You ni... was one of MISIA's best selling singles.
She first appeared in 1998 after being spotted at an BMG Japan audition in '97. After that, Misia gave herself the name "Misia" is a combination of "Misaki" and "Asia."(other saying goes "Messiah" and/or "Asia"). One of her claims to
fame is the ability to cover 5 octaves when singing, something she puts to good use in her songs. To date she has released 12 albums, and though her popularity isn't as huge as some others artist that are the same genre, she commands a decent following. While it's common to find Misia described as an R&B artist, her music has a more soulful, even bluesy, quality to it, something her voice complements well.
She is one of the few artists in Japan to have never performed on any TV music shows and fewer to be as popular despite this. Her live performance is acclaimed byAlthough I have listened to GAME in full for two days, its safe to say that this album will do well on Oricon, this album is very cohesive and strong. The melodies of each track is infectious, cool, and can be used in any club scene (regardless of language...). This album has me so convinced that I'm going to buy it, my first jpop purchase (despite the fact that the price is a little high for my taste). The issue here is, will the Japanese people love it and will it sell?
I watched their episode of MusicLovers and the crowd was loving them, literally. They were dancing, singing along, shouting, they were so enthusiatic...and Perfume looked happy to be on stage.
Sure, you have to give all the credit to Polyrhythm (their 5th single) but I think Pefume was bond to get in the eyes and consciousness of the Japanese people & worldwide (hell, I love these girls...they are addicting!) It was just a matter of time.
I just checked their charting today, it's number one for their first day...I hope they get at least number 1 for the first week or at least SOMEWHERE in the top 10!
I want to thank: my neighborhood (Vox), Livejournal friends, International Wota friends, last fm friends, UO friends, MSN messenger contacts, online friends who visit, people who stopped visiting (try to come back and check up on GH, will you?!)
I hope I can stay around as long as I can, although I originally wanted to shut down GH as soon as I reached 100,000 which was my original goal. But, being that I seem to get more visitors now recently...I've decided to keep it.
Thanks for being so nice and kind to me (even though I still consider myself a novice in terms of Asian Music) and thanks for just being "you", who I have come to respect and enjoy!
"The Cradle Song" which is track 5 off of the album, the PV here is set to their first single's PV "One More Time" which is a cover.
