It's been snowing almost non-stop since like, 8:00 last night. o_O So.Much.Snow!
But yeah, so I watched Tango Argentina / Revue '99 So, 3 hours later... here's my running commentary. It got ridiculously long so, cookies for you if you actually read it all. xD My favourite bit is my reaction over Osa in the line dance. *laugh*
Tango Argentina
- A tango and an Osa solo 4 minutes in, very very very good start! <3<3<3 And Mizu! Hmm, their voices work rather well together. ^_^ Any show that starts with a tango straight away is off to a good start in my books. xD
- ...Mizu hasn't really changed much, has she? I mean, this is from '99, and she still looks pretty much the same. xD
- TAMO~~~! (nice pants *laugh*) Because she can't simply step off the chair, she need people to carry her off of it. *snicker* And dude, what's with the little foot stamping thing??
- Kyaaaa Baby Miwacchi! <33333
- Awww, why'd they change out of tuxes?? TT_TT
- Gah, I keep mistaking Tamao as Miwacchi for some reason o_O
- *giggle* Osa.... <3<3<3<3<3 But where the hell is Asako?? TT_TT
- Tamo has such a nice face....and her smile = *swoon*
- Ooh, I hear Osa. =D Finally, there's Asa.
- MIHOKO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Heh, Asakana moment there. <3
- Mwahaha, Tamao doing Russian dance *laugh*
- Asako: "Oh solomio~~~~~ ...ACHOO" ROFL!!
- Heheh, Osakana. xD OMG that just made my day. xDD
- I love that Osa is leading this scene <3<3<3
- FUU-CHA~~~~~~~~~~~~N!!!!!!!!!
- Awww, Mihoko is so cute *_* Awww, kisses from Tamo <3
- ...Methinks this show is perfect for me since, you know, basically all the music seems to be tango...which I adore. ^____________^
- Uh oh, sullen looking Charlie.
- ...You know what's amusing me? That Midori's character is Marguerite and Mizu's is Otto. Now all we need is Armand, and we'd be set. *laugh*
- Woah, Machikaze Kana sounds like Asuka... I thought that's who it was at first.
- ...Did he just say Armand? *snort*
- I really like Charlie....
- Oh wow, gigolos... again. *snort* What is it with Hankyu and gigolos?? This and "Kohaku-iro--"... and they've both got gigolo songs. xD
- GIGOLO!ERI-TAN!! RANTOMU!!! YUMIKO!! (I'm having deja vu of a certain, amber-coloured rain type...) Awww, gigolo with glasses xD
- Let's play, "How far can I stick my hand up your skirt?"!!
- AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now Osa-tachi (the art students) are wearing those funky gaucho pants! xDDD That whole outfit is somehow both ridiculous and oddly hot xDDD
- LOLOL, when musumeyaku attack. XD
- LOL, Osa: "We'll just stand here with my hand casually lying on your thigh"
- ROFL, mad gaucho!Osa XDDDDD
- And now, we shall have a dance-off, because fighting is for wusses
- TAMO HAS A WHIP XDDD *snicker*
- Marguerite: "No! How could you dance like that in my presence? Why? WHY?!"
- John (Marguerite's brother): "How DARE you stop the police from taking me away! You're a dirty little slut, leave me alone! What's that? I'm a gigolo, you say? Yeah, well that's different!"
- Um...Osa... your bangs don't really have to be that high -_-;; ROFL, pouty-mad!Osa. xDD
- Oh no, a war is starting... LET'S ALL SING!
- Julio: "So, shall we shag now, or shall we shag later?" Marguerite: "But dear, don't you think this chaise is a bit small..."
- Happa-san! ^__^
- RanTomu! Miwacchi! Really... how could you stoop so low as to steal paintings? Tut,tut...
- Damn.... just rip a 3000 franc painting like it's nothing why don't you =P
- Charlie really has that "look" down doesn't she?
- "It wasn't seduction, I love her with all my heart" Ready everyone? AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW~~~!
- Oh yay, Osa-tachi is back <3
- O...kay. Considering he just got shot in the arm, Karl is oddly calm about it o_O
- Heheh, dancing soldiers FTW. Um...what's up with the huge spiky thing on the Germans' helmets?? o_O
- No! They killed Mizu! And Tamao! And Osa is hurt TT_TT But Tamo helped her ^_^ ...er...only to be captured by the Germans. -_-;;
- Lyke, o hei Karl! Fancy seeing you here! How's your arm? Oh, uh, hey dude, no need to point that sword at me...
- Karl: "You obviously love her more than me, therefore I will divorce her as soon as the war ends" Julio: "Really? ...YAY! I WIN!" Karl: *evil glare*
- Damn those are some sweaty otokoyaku. ....did I just say that? ^^;
- ....AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Julio teaching Karl the tango XDDDDD See, that's all we needed to end the war. *snicker*
- O hei, a bomb killed the guy bringing me back to prison...YAY! I'm free! Me: -_-;; How convenient =P
- Happa-san is adorable <3<3<3
- OSA'S ALIVE! And her musumeyaku fanbase (including MIHOKO!) seems to be as well. xD
- YUMIKO SOLO!!!!!! *BOUNCES*
- Lol, she went from having a tango club, to a jazz club. Oh what the war does to people. xD
- My odd little mind is muchly amused by Osa saying "Marguerite" *facepalm* Yes, I do have a one track mind -_-;
- Aww Yumiko, can't you find a partner?
- Julio's back! *cue 'lovers being reunited' music*
The Revue '99
- Oh yay, Misaki Megumi =D
- FEATHERS!!! SEQUINS!!! <3<3<3<3
- Oooh, Charlie looks good in blue.... *_*
- TANGOTANGOTANGOTANGOTANGO!!!!!! OSA! ASAKO! MIZU! FUU-CHAN!
- Have I mentioned how much I love Osa recently?
- Woah, the scene on the ginkyou is very striking with 2 differents parts being sung and just... everyone's voice blends together really well and they all look really good.
- Rockettes! And... and... my mind just exploded when I saw Tamao in that rockette outfit O_O Damn that's a really long line of legs...
- Osa??? HOLY SHIT IT IS HER AND...AND...AND.... *KABOOM* I....I HAVE NO COHERANT THOUGHTS RIGHT NOW... LEGS~~!! HO.LY.MOTHER OF ALL THINGS SHINY. O_O SHE GOT TO DO THE BEST PART OF THE LINE DANCE TOO!!! AND THERE'S ASAKO! AND MIZU! MY BRAIN...MY POOR, POOR, EXPLODED BRAIN. *NOSEBLEED*
- Can-can! Cocktail, anyone? xD
- Oh look, there's Miwacchi, and RanTomu, and Eri-tan. ^___^
- Osa! Slow Boat to China! <3 Asako, Mizu, Yumiko! Aww, Yumiko is adorable! <3 And I keep thinking Tomoyo looks like Touko -_-; Probably 'cause I can't see her whole face =P
- Have I mentioned I love Osa?
- Oh yay, tailcoats! <3<3<3
- That's a sexy sounding saxaphone... I've always loved the baritone sax <3 xD
- Wow, that's a really gorgeous dress....Midori looks good
- WTF is up with the cocktail glasses?? Wrong revue people! xDDD
- Hi there Charlie, that's a lovely frilly, purple shirt you've got there. *laugh*
- Aww, Tamo is cute as the dreamer (carrying around a bird) <3
- Aww, cute little tutu-wearing flamingos!! ^__^ Oh look, I think that's Mihoko! <3 And Miwacchi is supposed to be in there somewhere...
- Tamo singing "Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word" = Much RABU!
Osa singing "SStbtHW" = Even MORE Rabu! xD *gets shot for being biased*
- Oh....wow. Osa.... *speechless* I have a stage photo of Osa as the 愛の鳥, except I didn't know what show it was from. It wasn't until I saw Sora's version of this revue and got to this scene that I realised it. But she is gorgeous here... the photo doesn't do her justice at.all. <3
- By the way, I love osa. ^^
- Oh no! Charlie!Eagle and her little minions! NO! Don't hurt our little white birdies (Tamo & Midori)! TT_TT
- Woah, Rock n Roll Charlie xD
- Bird!Mizu in drag FT..W? She looks kinda... odd. -_-; And she tripped a bit in her dance xD And I don't much like the choreography...
- I feel sorry for the girls dancing around stage on their knees -_-;
- ...Woah! Phoenix!Tamo....
- Oh, but guess what her character name is: Gigolo S. *snort* And what the hell does the 'S' stand for? xD Why hello there, Gigolo!Osa. ^_^
- Finale? Already? =P
- MIHOKO IS THE ETOILE!! MIHOKO IS THE ETOILE!! <3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3 *_* ♪"Revue, Revue, Revue, The Revue!"♪ *laugh* Those are some original lyrics xD God she's amazing....
- Wow...that's a very white outfit Midori xD *blinded*
- Tamo...you're pretty. ^_^
Ooh, it's over. Oh, wait, what's this...?
Omake????
- EHHH? WTF??? OMAKE?? What is this? "レビュー記念日" ....Um...okay. I have no idea...
- ZUNKO!
- Hey, it's the songs from the beginning of the 2007 TCA Special...
- Sorry...but I still don't think much of Tom's voice *is shot* -_-;
- Heh... Midori doesn't seem to fit in with the other top musumeyaku. She seems less...frail. o_O
- ZUNKO. Ai to shi no Rondo. ...KYAAAAAA *dies*
- Hmmm, the song Tom sings is actually pretty cool.
- Eh?? Apparently Tamo wrote the lyrics to the song she sings o_O Heh, the title? "愛の華" (as in 愛華みれ) heheh. Ooh, it's turning out to be a pretty good song. <3<3<3<3 Wow, how's that for blatant fanservice; singing "anata no, anata no, etc"/ "kimi no, kimi no, etc" while pointing at various audience members. xD
- Oh hi, background-Osa. ^_^
Awww, now the video really is over. TT_TT
Final thoughts? I really really really like it. Tango Argentina was good and filled with tangos, which is LOVE. <3 And comparing the revue to Sora's version, I think it kept my attention better. Of course, I am a bit biased but, that's beside the point. =P
And bird!Osa is gorgeous. *happy sigh*
