Kasou and Oasis; L'arc en Ciel and Gackt

[bitrswtsymphony]

So I was looking through my order history with HMV and Amazon and realised that the 28th of January was when I placed my first Jrock order. So, I've decided that the 28th is the anniversary day, although January will always be the J-rock month. hehe, i'm so lame sometimes :D

I look back and I can't belive how much money I spended on Jrock - well

I've never listened to Kasou before - thanks for sharing :)

About Oasis - it's also one of my fave song from Gackt. At first I didn't think the song was great, but after listening to it 2-3 times, I became addicted. There's something in the song, I can't explain what it is, but it's like giving you spirit and strength to go on.

The 6th Day & 7 Night Oasis live performance is also my fave, I like the choreography and the costume. His voice was also very powerful there.

your welcome :D did you like it? I can give you the mp3 and/or the video if you'd like.

but it's like giving you spirit and strength to go on.

very true. It's so, so inspiring. I've never had a song that was so inspiring for me. It's something i meant to say but just didn't as i was tired when i wrote this :)

His voice was also very powerful there.
ahh you noticed that too! his voice is powerful in the recorded version, ao to heat it live (well, from the dvd) was just...that much more awsome. I'd love to hear the song live just once, but it's a song he hardly performs live, unfortunatly.

hahaha.. my biggest splurge is when i bought 4 PBs at a go
PB III - PB VI
cuz i saved up a looooong time and bought them at a go to save on shipping. lol...

[bitrswtsymphony]

awsome! now that's quite a splurge! was the shipping you saved a lot? how long ago did you get them? I don't even think you can get any of the older PB's anyomore...

oh how is PB6? that's the 'cowboy' one right?

[pixiezdust]

wah i cant remember how much shipping i saved but i know its definitely cheaper than buying them one by one. although i'll definitely feel the pinch more since its one big scoop out of my account XD

nope. cowboy is PBVII (the newest one :P )
PBVI is the one with blackstone PV/making of (and others) as well as Fort Venus

[bitrswtsymphony]

oh definatly. ha, but at least you got what you saved up more, and as long as it was worth it, it's all good, and you'll recover with the same work you put into for saving up for them ... well theoreticly anyway :)

ahhhh ok ok. I don't followe them that closly as I don't get thoes. ahh so that's where the Black Stone making comes from. (I have it downloaded, as well as Fort Venus).

Wow, now that is a splurge! XD It sounds like my otakon buying frenzy once a year! lol

Kasou is a really good song!! L'arc is so amazing to still be so good after all these years! I really can't wait for their new stuff to be released (which if I remember right is very soon)

Haha, the Oasis PV. I haven't even begun to try to explain that one, lol. The whole "angst in a potato sack" thing just makes me laugh XD But I really love the song. It's a nice treat for the ears because of the interesting and different instrumentals ^^

[bitrswtsymphony]

lol seriously! you do splurges like that once a year? damn!! They must have some pretty awsome stuff then.

this spring they have a new single comming out! as well as all the other compliations and such that's just come out. ah yea, it takes some tallent to still be around for as long as they have been. They are awsome :D

It's a nice treat for the ears because of the interesting and different instrumentals

defiantly the unique twist in the music of this song is one of the best things about the song. it really gets brought out in the live performances. all 2 of them lol :(

[nyanya_nobara]

lol, maybe not *that* bad but Otakon is my big splurge weekend of the year XD

I'm excited for L'arc's new stuff!! ^^ They are an amazing band! =)

Yeah, it does. I love that song live. And I love how Gackt does it different in every live.

[bitrswtsymphony]

haha gotta have at least one right?

me too!! even though I still crave the old stuff I don't have! I finally watched the 15th aniversary concert - oh my god it was awsome! I hope they will eventually do a mini tour in the US. That would be awsome. I want to see them live!

lol well being that he's only performed them twice, and a few years apart, there was going to be a difference. Although, in some ways, there are a couple of similarities. and even with songs he sings more often, he always changes it up in ways :) like Lu:na and Fragrance, for example.
