GACKT Blog - 2010/02/10 07:15
I had a little time today so I translated this.
I translated this entry first because it seems more interesting (and serious) than the one on 9th.
The other will be up when I'm back. ^^
Do not repost.
Today too, it's at such a time...
FORDEAR
Ohayou.
This is GACKT still with the neck pain that doesn't go away.
Now, it's just after 7 in the morning.
For the sake of editing the VISUALIVE DVD it's an all-nighter again today...
While my body continues screaming (in protest),
My staff who are helping out are desperately continuing the work.
Seriously, nobody can be a match for them.
Work is finally, ending.
While checking it on the big screen these words spilled out from the mouth of the staff.
[This far exceeds "THIS IS IT"...]
Well, I'm not making a comparison, I think so too.
Michael created and raised the world of POP ART.
What is presented on stage is a continuation of his life.
In that era, he is a genius with that staging concept.
To him, I want to dedicate this work.
In this degraded era, with rotten media pounding incessantly (on him),
(Creating) works not seen in many genres, he who continuously challenged the stage.
We too are doing it,
Not only the stage,
Even the time taken for the editing,
We're trying to bring about a product
that is not seen in this world up till now, a VISUALIVE DVD on a category (of it's own).
If you say [Fraud??] due to the long time taken for production,
And the lateness of work with regards to the release date being pushed back many times,
Understand then the feeling of wanting to deliver this product from the start till the end
The time taken, to finally produce this VISUALIVE DVD.
We have been working overnight in the studio welcoming the finale (of production).
No matter how many times we see this VISUALIVE DVD,
Tonight too, we get goosebumps again and again.
[Awesome---...] these words spilled out of the staff's mouths many times
Very soon, we'll heave a sigh of relief when this product is delivered to all of you.
Recently, I've gotten lots of shout-outs from overseas writers, and people involved in media production saying
[We look forward to GACKT's work!]
They are the same as my fans, they can understand it.
In this world there exist many works that differ greatly,
I,,, We created this stage, this work that is greatly anticipated..
Because filming will start in about 2 hours' time
I've got to return and start preparations.
Anyway, just a bit more and I'll end...
I don't know how many works I'll leave behind.
However, I'm sure about this.
This work is the world's greatest now, nobody can copy it,
It's an irreplaceable work.
When Michael was creating his work, I bet he's seriously embracing this feeling,
Till the curtains closed on his life.
I too don't want to have regrets,
I want to leave in your memories the best passion and courage,
Giving birth to new creators in this world,
Letting all of you continue seeing what a serious and honorable man (I am).
Thank you all for believing in me and waiting.
Now I'll go back to preparing.
This VISUALIVE DVD is dedicated to all fans in the world and
The now deceased KING OF POP Michael Jackson.
