One would think I'd know by now to stop re-watching graduation shows. I must be a secret glutton for pain. I watched Kei-chan's graduation show ( Read more... )

I reeeead your journal, I just haven't been around~

I don't know crap about Momusu.. you're post-Morning, but do you still do stuff with other girls? Or are you solo like Yuko?

Mm, I used to think only Yuuchan read it; she's the only one who commented... ^^;;

It's okay, I know most people are busy. Since I've been recovering (I've been well for two weeks now, recovering my butt!) I've had more time to waste be online, so I know about being busy.

I still work with the other girls, sorta. I help them do vocal training more than anything work-related. Otherwise I'm a soloist like Yuko. We have too much time and they do things like send us to Disney (for Hello! Morning episodes when it's obvious they've nothing better to do. Like making us eat Mickey shaped waffles in early April...). And my solo career is pretty stagnant, because how many people in Japan listen to Mediterranean music?

(And you see how Tsunku seems to love emphasizing his solo artists. Other than Goto Maki and Abe Natsumi, no one really gets a push these days...)

Eh I comment on everything. My mouth's always open, unless I'm eating. Nah, even then.

We have a lot of filler episodes like that, too. My band has two different tv shows, and sometimes we repeat shit we did two years ago when they have brainfreeze. Anything can be interesting with the right people, eh?

What is Mediterranean music? I haven't heard any of the h!p stuff outside of Yuko's and some of the Momusu stuff you can't escape from on the radio, eheh.

People over here are just as fickle with promotion, so I hear ya.

... Doesn't it need to be a little open during eating? ^-^ You seem like such a fun person to talk to, I feel so bad I've a habit of staying to myself so much. Unlike Yuko, I'm much quieter unless around my friends. And I know so little about you...

I think they've run out of things to do on H!M... I mean, six years is a long time but there's only so much you can do when your members graduate and all that. (I will never, never understand why Tsunku someone got the brilliant idea to put a bloody volleyball team in Hello! Morning...) But yes, I think we've fallen victim to that as well. I'm glad we're not alone in reusing tv material.

I've uploaded my first single and my latest H!P performance song (WHY it's not a single is beyond me...) for you to get an idea of my Mediterranean style.

Sakura no Hana ga Saku GoroThey don't play me on the radio. Except during my radio show. (Which is of course Mediterranean themed.) Currently we talk about European movies, play songs from the movies and a song of mine. ( ... )

eheh, I wouldn't necessarily consider my loudness a blessing, it just happens. Yeah, Yuko's not quiet at all either, eh? There's not a lot to know about me, really. I'm a Johnny. Kanjani8 are my guys. I'm blunt, I think I'm funny and I'm an asshole. That's me. :D ( ... )

You certainly sound like such a strong personality :)

The fans'll take anything they're given, you know? Heck I'm sure you saw in jpoproleplay Sakitan's entry about the people stealing the Berryz Koubou banners. That's a little extreme for even us, but really, the fans eat up what they can get. I'm sure they'd like to see us all sit there and watch paint dry. (They found it funny when Yuko and I got foot massages and we went a little crazy... I should find that picture. They put it in the tabloids, no surprise ( ... )

eheh. Mayyyybe.

Yeah, that's crazy, but I'm not surprised either. Beat this TV, balloon-kickin kills pancake-eatin. Intense drama! Yeah well, there's the fans that cry when Ryo-chan talks to 'em. I don't get it, but hey, whatever, keeps me in the best job ever.

I'd love to hear more of your music, actually. Management makes us sing a lot of old shit that's not our music and we hate it, but we just act like retarded asses, so it sort of makes up for it. If you can't have fun while you're doin it, why bother? Case in point. We're mocking paying homage to Shounentai, an older and well-respected group of Johnnys. Way #302 that they get around me having to sing. :D*

Ahhh Uchi-boy already schooled ya, eh? There's a whole crapload of stuff floating around, I wonder what he showed you, since he's been taking a break from the band for the last year. Most people know us by our first two singles [ 1 2 ] back when he was still singin with us, but I kinda prefer the trance version of the first, myself. I have a thing for techno ( ... )
