Yeah I'm baaaaaaack!! Hello F-list!!!! How are you? I missed you and all crazy LJ posts xDDD
Nimes and Avignon were nice and pleasant ^^ Pretty cities with a great patrimony. Maybe I should post some pictures if you're interested ^^ *bit lazy for now*
Thank you my dear
absolute_enigma for your waffle! You're sweet <3333 (I never ate that lol)
I saw an "interesting" video on my F-page today. Interesting in a sociological way I mean... I listen to some japanese music (particularly one boysband but that's not the point :p). Japanese pop (J-pop) loves idols who can be cute, smiling, etc. The Japanese consume them : CDs, DVDs, books, ties-in, dramas, shows. Well like us, the Westerns, with our favorite bands/singers. No surprise.
I present you AKB48's "Heavy rotation". AKB48 is the band's name : some girls are underage (not the main ones we can see in the video). The point isn't they are japanese. They could be french, korean, american or russian.
Just watch this :
[PV] AKB48 - Heavy Rotationenvoyé par
Maki-dream.
So the song isnt that good but I don't care. The lightnings are ugly? Yeah that's right xD
Everything is just "WTF they're doing? o_O" We all know "sex" sells well. Very well. Girls in sexy underwears, playing together in a huge bed, eating candies/cakes, kissing each other, mewing on a table (o_o)... I'm sure the perverts are rapturous! But AKB48 have girls, teenagers (and maybe children) among their fans. What kind of image about women does the producer want to show? (okay they don't f****** care about xD) I'm not blaming the singers because the management isn't waiting for their approvement. But geez the two girls in bathtub are 13 and 17-year-old o_O Have you forgotten words like "respect" or "dignity"? I know everything is relative to business/money nowadays but this is too much... What will AKB48 show in the next PV? A "cute" orgy in a swimming pool with naked girls?
Yasushi Akimoto, please : FIND MORE MATURE/INTELLIGENT IDEAS FOR THEIR NEXT VIDEOS ! What? It doesn't matter? I'm even not surprised -_-
