Hello to everyone who found the to my side! And welcome to rotation # 2!! YAYS!
I thought about making a special theme for this rotation. I decided to set the theme "Sadly disbanded", cause it's a very actual theme for me in these days. One of my favorite bands gonna be disbanded in January 2007 and I still don't know if I will be allowed and able to see them on their last lives in Europe ;__; So we have a known band of the last rotation in this again^^
Also, we have requests!! And we have an Anni-chan that couldn't decide to anything this week and totally freaks out and goes hyper xDDD So everything's like always XD
Click here for RULES and REQUESTS :D YAYS! And hooray! Let's jump in the LJ cut!
1]]
Artist: Kagerou
Song: Zetsubou ni SAYONARA
3,13MB // 3:25min // 10/10
Comment: I start the rotation with - of course - Kagerou! I'm so sad! And I'm still angry at myself!! Cause I was able to see them live this year on their concerts, but I didn't went, cause I thought: "Hey, you can go next year! Save your money for something else!" I HATE MYSELF!!!! Kagerou is going to be disbanded and if my stupid mom don't let me go to Berlin I will totally DIE!! >_>**
It was kinda hard for me to decide to ONE song, cause I'm really a fan of Kagerous music! (especially the last three albums were awesome!!) Last rotation I posted a hard and loud song. I thought about a slow and calm song... But no! I posted TWO songs!! Cause I couldn't decide. First one is a fast and restless song and the title means "Despaired Goodbye" and it was my FIRST Kagerou song! X3
Daisukes voice is as breath-taking as it always is! His voice goes high and deep in a so easy seeming way... wow! I love that part at 2.25min and I always scream "SAYONARAAA!" along with Dai-kun! XD And of course the Raaarww ending of the song. Yuanas guitar reminds me of something I heard before, but I can't remember what^^
SAYONARAAA!!! 2]]
Artist: Kagerou
Song: Kusatta umi de oborekaketeiru boku wo sukuttekureta kimi
5,24MB // 5:31min // 10/10
Comment: I just recognized that Daisuke uses a lot of "Arrigatou, sayonara..." in his songs. (I think that's because of his heart-disease...) And it made me cry as I listened to this song a few days ago - I guess that was the time I actually realized that they are really disbanded. And it left me numb.
I can't remember how often I lie on the floor listening to that song and just dreamt. It's a song to dream - it's THE song to dream! All calm Kagerou songs are masterpieces, but "Kusatta umi de..." is the most beautiful and melodic one. You may shouldn't listen to that song if you are an very emotional human or love Kagerou. His vocals and again Yuanas awesome guitar playing is an other reason to loose your soul in this song... or at least your heart...
Follow me... 3]]
Artist: deadman
Song: Please God
3,41MB // 4:43min // 7/10
Comment: I just got into deadman (sounds soooo wrong xDD) and a few weeks later I heard they were disbanded ;__; Life isn't fair. (you see this rotation is very emotional^^)
Mako sings: "Goodbye, kiss me, aishite iru." I think that's a good way to say goodbye to your fans, or? :3 What can I say about this song? It isn't their best, but my fave "Follow the night" has been uploaded way too often in other rotations last time. (of course you can request it and force me let me upload it for you^^) I like the weird noises in the background, which reminds me that Halloween is soon xDDD
Deadman, but not dead, man! XDD 4]]
Artist: Pierrot
Song: Smiley Skeleton
6,07MB // 4:22min // 9/10
Comment: Honesty: I didn't like Pierrot when I listened to them the first time. I didn't like them the second time and the third time not either. I hated Kiritos voice! XP But my opinion change after a while. (Sadly too late T_T) It's weird, but his voice doesn't annoys me anymore, it doesn't gives me negative shudders anymore - I loooove it! x3 His voice is just different and if you don't like the way he's singing I can understand that^^ First I wanted to pick "Neo Grotesque", because it was my first Pierrot song, buuut I changed my mind because of the above story XDD (though I love that song today x3)
Smiley Skeleton is a sexy song in my disturbed opinion. And why the heck do I always feel like I have to save the world when I'm listening to this?? o.O The... noise... asian temple noises.. the ping-ponging... the... >_>** I don't know how to call this... whatever it is, it makes me so spiritual and like I said... I have to save the world now!! XDD
Wonder how a skeleton smiles... XD 5]]
Artist: Clavier
Song: Yume no Hakuchizu
3,35MB // 2:55min // 7/10
Comment: I like listening to that song, cause it's pretty fast and I like the way he sings the "R"s^^ I have just 4 songs from Clavier - I feel like I'm not allowed to say something bad about them^^
This song reminds me of the fasten up song of a *** ** **** song. Don't you think?? Okay, maybe I'm just crazy and listened too much Miyavi last time (which makes me go hyper xD) I dare to say: This is a fast, bit poppish, upbeat song. And you! Don't dare to rest!
Let the clavier play :D Requests!

Artist: D'espairs Ray
Song: Hai to Ame
7,26MB // 5:16min // 10/10
Requested by: Razori!!
Comment: I was asked to upload any Despa song. "Okay, fine", I thought "How the heck should I decide myself to one Despa song??! >_<**" But I picked "Hai to Ame" cause it's my fave at the moment. It's a very catchy, upbeat song from D'espairs Ray which you hadn't expect of them^^ There's a wonderful, dreamy piano (or keyboards o.O) in the background the whole time over. I always feel like I have my head in the clouds, this song is so floating, so soft, but it still got these unmistakable guitar and bass riffs. And Hizumi shows us once that he can really sing! WOAH! Hizumi! I'm proud of you! Good boy! Go to my room... *cough* ^^
Despa!!!

Artist: ELLEGARDEN
Song: Butterfly
4,88MB // 3:09min // 8/10
Requested by: Kayleigh!!
Comment: For all those who didn't know Ellegarden yet: SHAME ON YOU! They are a really punky rockband with a sound we all knew well from american garage bands. Do we?? Ellegarden sounds so western and so different at the same time. My first thought while hearing my first Ellegarden song was: "Hey! A pretty cool american band! Strange... I thought they pissed me off xDD" Then I found a pic and was like: "WTF?! They are japanese!" Yes, most songs are in english, but some lyrics like in this song have some parts in japanese. It kinda embarrasses me that a friend of mine figured out that they were "j-rock", but I didn't! (and he is a anti-j-rock-bastard-guy) >_>** But may I got so close to Engrish (or Kyogrish xD) that I didn't realized the very, very small mistakes in his freakin' awesome english! *bows to him*
Okay... I just talked about the band! XD Let's talk about the song: Some hard screaming parts in here! Believe me: I sing the japanese parts along but fail at the english ones xD There isn't much to say to this song. Give it a try if you don't know them yet. For all the others it's a must-download, I guess^^
Look in my eyes when you talk! 8]]
Artist: ELLEGARDEN
Song: Wannabies

Requested by: Kayleigh!!
Comment: Hey! Ellegarden again! This is a typical catchy tune song! You may not believe it, but you will recognize it when you're humming it in the bus or in the subway xDD This isn't my fave Ellegarden song either, but I still go singing along (I always sing along with Ellegarden songs o.O).
I wanna be Bruce Lee too! :D And as a little extra... You hear Kaoru scream "SUCKERRRR" in the sample of
Agitated screams of maggots!! Tell me... do you love me?? XDDD
So... and what's about rotation # 3?? :D
Leader-sama says: "It's gonna be harder than EVERYTHING before! RRAWARGRHGRRAGHW!!!"
