Work is crazy, so I destress by being random

So I was reading the je_secrets comm, and the comments because I am masochistic perhaps, it's interesting to see the kind of wankery that people get up to.

And I realized, I am That Kind of Fan. That got into Arashi because of the music.

Yeah, you heard me. XDDD )

links, meta, thinky, random, attempting to convert people to boybands, arashi, ficrecs, music, my brain is a strange place

I love Arashi's music, for most of the same reasons you mentioned. It makes me happy. :) My favourites, though, hm...

Subarashiki Sekai - I find that I listen to a certain Arashi song a lot for a particular span of time, and this one I listened to almost constantly during my last practicum block whenever I felt lonely or unsure or isolated, and I hadn't seen my friends for weeks. For some reason, the line (君の街まであと少し) really resonated with me, that feeling of almost there.

Kaze - I love how hopeful this one is, and I love the Time Concert MC version. One of the things I love best about concerts is being able to see their faces and expressions while they sing; even when I'm listening later on my iPod to a song, I can remember just those flickers of emotion and it sort of adds an extra layer to the lyrics.

Kaze no Mukou e - This is one of my 'do-your-best' songs, possibly my favourite Sho rap of all time. I like walking to this song.

Kimi no Tameni Boku ga Iru - I listen to this whenever I'm feeling down, and it always does the trick.

Kitto Daijoubu - My first, and favourite Arashi song. It's happiness and sunshine and rainbows, all together. :)

Hmm, I could go on forever, but those are my top few. :D

Mmmmmm, Subarashiki Sekai is a gorgeous song, thank you for reminding me. Their solos are so lovely. Oh! That's the line for your Saudade-verse story!

Kitto Daijoubu's not on my list, but I love how so many people in the entertainment world like this song. :D Did you ever see that clip of Ken Hirai talking about it during one of his concerts? And Eiji Wentz from WaT sang a bit on Utaban, hee.

I need to look up the lyrics for Kaze and learn what they're singing~ Ah, the UraArashi parts of concerts are so cool.

If you want to go on, please do. I'm loving this discussion, so many songs to revisit! ♥
