THINGS I HAVE LEARNT:  NEVER LISTEN TO LADY GAGA UNLESS YOU WANT IT IN YOUR HEAD FOREVER.

Anyway.  I should have replied to everyone who requested an item for direct sale, if I missed someone please email me at amaiakuyume AT hotmail DOT com.  People who bid on the auctions don't have to worry about it yet.

I'm working every day this week, but I have the first half of Friday free, so if anyone can get their payment to me before then(i.e. tomorrow), I'll try and post your item on that day.  I don't know what my work roster is going to be after Sunday, but I'll work it out as I go.  I should have a free day or two next week, so there's no rush ^_^

There were a large number of people who wanted Making Sense of Japanese, so I thought I'd point out that it's on sale at Amazon.com at the moment.

Also, ryuik  posted an interesting short video from very early in Gackt's career, so I did a short translation.  The usual disclaimers apply about mishearings being possible when I don't have a text to read from, but I'm pretty sure the gist, at least, is correct.

Hi

Gackt here.

My album MARS came out on the 26th of April.  Um…well, I hope you feel something in it when you listen.  When I was making it, I thought of it as something like a mirror that would reflect the heart of the person that listened to it.  It doesn't matter how you listen to it, or what you take as the point, if everyone who listens to it feels, if there is something they can feel, that is the greatest happiness for its creator…well, I think there will be a lot who felt something, who will feel something, but please let me hear your impressions.

Gackt over and out.

If anyone wants to check this for mistakes, here's what I thought I heard (brackets are bits I'm really dodgy about)

Hi

Gacktです。

四月の26日にアルバムMARSが出ました。あの...まぁ、聞いて何かを感じてくれたらいいなぁっておもっています。(きっとは)その聞く人の心を映し出す鏡みたいなものじゃないのかなと作ってって思いました。こう風に聞いてるか、こうがポイントだとかそうなのはどうでも良くて聞く人みんなが感じるまま、何か感じれるものがあったら、それで...作った本人として一番幸せなのかと...まぁ、何かを感じた人たち、ころから何かを感じる人たちいろいろあると思いますがまた感想でも聞かせてください。

Gacktでした。
