UGH.
AKDLJAKASJ THIS IS NOT COOL. D:
I'm currently freaking out because of this post at
feel_the_fate. Long story short, apparently, w-inds.' contract ends in 2009, and because of the many Johnnys' groups, their popularity has been going down and because of Johnnys' power in the industry, w-inds. has been prevented from being promoted in TV shows and magazines - the media basically. Anyways, as I said, their contract ends in 2009 and their upcoming release could be the deciding factor for whether the contract is renewed or not. It could just be a load of bs, but I'd rather not take my chances. D: Honestly, I love w-inds. too much to just have them disband because sales are going down. That would suck, since they were, the first boy band I got into and ugh. I'm so emotionally attached to them ♥. 8D; So, I plan on pre-ordering the limited edition of w-inds. upcoming single "Beautiful Life" on CD Japan (YesAsia usually doesn't send their sale reports to Oricon >.<) so it's counted onto the Oricon charts. I do have one question though, and I'm hoping someone on my flist can answer it. D: Do the DVDs that come with the limited editions work on North American (namely Canada) DVD players/computers? Because if it doesn't, then I'll just be buying the normal edition. I hope someone can help me, I would be really greatful. ^^
I also urge you all to support the artists whenever. Really good artists can disappear from the music industry because of low sales, and I think we, as fans, owe them that much for producing great music, ne? ^^
I was actually going to post some stuff concerning RL but I rambled too much about w-inds. ^^;; I'll post about that tomorrow I suppose.
Hope everyone's doing well! ♥
