8 - It's Hard Out Here for A Pimp
It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp
Arashi is cooped up in a conference room with a few other people, managers and publicists, discussing damage control. That none of the higher ups are around bodes well and yet, Arashi is silent, except for occasional words from Sho and some sounds of agreement from Jun. Kazunari and Masaki look so serious, as if nothing ( Read more... )

The pictures! Those are freaking hilarious! There should be a rule that scandalous pictures should always, always be funny!
Thanks for reading. Your comments are much appreciated. :)

SO true. i'm cracking up just thinking of ohno's expression in them.
those pics just looked like a guy in his prime having his fun. nothing wrong with that.

Me, too! Just imagining him in all his crosseyed glory is enough to cheer me up. I just hope I am not reminded of those damn pictures when I'm polite company, though.

Whatever it was that he did then, he looked like he was in a really happy place. :)

Ah, the rainbows came from some Arashi PVs, which I think started in the Kitto Daijoubu one! It's one of the best, craziest, most retarded PVs I've seen! The first time I saw it, I was thinking, "What the hell are these guys smoking? I want to have some." XDD
Song recommendations.. What type of songs do you like? I'll look for some you might find interesting.
I'd invite you to listen to these two songs by Ohno, though:
Rain
Song for Me
I hope you like them.
Seriously, although, there are some Arashi songs that I really love, and like most of their music based on principle, I'd say the PVs, the tv shows an the general dorkery are what made me love Arashi in the first place.
It would be much more fun if people can always find their own happy places. Maybe we'd have less wars, too. XD

hmm i like songs that are happy and cute. and emo rock. i like emo rock. just no screaming.
i listened to the songs! can't honestly say that they're my faves right now, i kinda grow to like songs the more i listen to them, so check back on that again. but what i CAN tell you is that i like ohno's voice. he's good.

Me, too. It took me a while to like Amy Winehouse's songs, although I've loved her voice the first time I heard it. But songs by the Beatles, I love them by default. XD
but what i CAN tell you is that i like ohno's voice. he's good.YES. I wasn't very impressed with his voice the first time I heard it; I lean more towards "manlier" voices. But his voice grew on me, I guess. He's definitely no Hyde [L'arc en ciel], but he has his own distinct sound ( ... )

i'm still in the process of downloading the songs. :)))))
thanks for the recs. and i totally LOL-ed at the part about matsujun.
anyway i'm kinda liking "rain" more and more. XDDD
and one more thing. amy winehouse and beatles rock. if only AW would clean up her act. she's got an amazing voice. :(((

Good. Have a great time listening to Arashi!
MatsuJun is not a good singer, he really isn't-- although he can sing backup [especially if the others are covering up his voice. SORRY JUN!], and sing with Ohno [as long as Ohno's is the only voice heard. SORRY JUN!]--but he sure is one hell of an entertainer. He's a good dancer, a promising young actor and Arashi's very own concert planner! He's an Arashi member, and I love him. ♥
Rain. It took me a while to like Rain. My first favorite solo from the One album was Nino's Himitsu but Rain held on to me and wouldn't let go. It's now the second most played song in my iPod. XD
Amy Winehouse. Maybe she and Ohno can share a puff or two. I'm really sad that she can't seem to get a grip on herself. Such a talented young woman, too. Her voice is made of pure magic ( ... )

his heart's gonna break if he sees this.
but you have no idea how loud and long i laughed at this. but wow he's their concert planner?! don't their managers do that or something? guess he isn't just a dork then
my fave song from arashi is still ARASHI. sorry i have no idea where to put the dots to separate them a;lkdjf;ak
AW. yeah. sometimes it's the most talented ones who go down the road of destruction. sad, but... guess you can't have everything in life.
like you said, beatles is loved by default. somehow the retro bands are those that hold on to music fans the longest. beatles, queen, air supply, frank sinatra, jackson 5... music today is nothing like what it was in the olden days.
i'm enjoying their music. they're happy. that's all i need. though my JE shuffle list is hella long thanks to tokio and kt and ( ... )

ROTFLMAO. i just. i have no words. a;lkdfj
so he's basically the pioneer of the whole moving stage thing. good for him. but it's amazing that they get to give input like this, cuz idk i sorta though that artistes had to do whatever management tells them to.
so it's A-RA-SHI. tbh i fell for the song when koki sang it during the lips PV making. when i heard it i was like !!!! nice song!!!!! lol hopefully they will. (but wow TENTH anniversary?! amazing.)
Fame is a bitch
isn't it always? :(
ALL the albums and singles of arashi... WOW. i mean, your wallet's gonna feel a lot emptier. L'arc... is that the one with gackt? or hyde? sry but i don't really venture out of my fandom (KT) much. more like neverkinki kids... i've heard like ONE song of theirs. anniversary. i liked it. T&T not yet. but tokio! tokio is AMAJING. seriously. it's the first band whose music i could concentrate on without wondering about their looks or rumors or gossip or stuff. you can definitely ask me for recs, but i haven't really listened ( ... )

i have no idea what's the smapxsmap concept, but i'm glad to hear that they actually contribute some. songwriting's a given, but i didn't know that they had free reign over things like concerts. i recently heard that whoever is hosting shokura gets to produce it, as in planning/scripting the whole show. it's good that they are given the chance to do things their own way and not just follow instructions. :D
yes koki sang it. it was sorta like a mini jamming session with kame koki and nakamaru. they started with kinki kids' "anniversary" and then koki did a-ra-shi. it was effing cool and made me love them so, SO much.
link's here, if you're interested. XD
