[discussion] YFCz - One Year Later

Jun 09, 2012 00:39

One year ago today on June 9th, 2011, GACKT called a press conference to promote YELLOW FRIED CHICKENz. The second European tour had been announced shortly before, and everyone was wondering what other announcements GACKT had up his sleeve that would be worthy of a press conference and a Nico Nico broadcast.

He gave us this...

My love for them has grown throughout the year.

I went to Cologen and Amsterdam.

All my Love (the live version, not the CD version!) is my favorite song by them, it made me cry buckets at both lives.

Memories:

Being stalked by Crazy-D and his cam. In Amsterdam he was standing right next to me and filming me for whatever reason. Another memory is being stared and smiled at by G when I sang along All my Love in Amsterdam. Also being in the 1 1/2 row there was awesome.

I know that it won't be the final FINAL live for them, so...

It's been a wild year!

It's been great to see how the band has come together, to meet the members and come to know them. I saw some of their shows in Europe last summer and although the shows and performances were good, it was obvious that they were a new band that hadn't had enough time to prepare and get to know each other. By the time they hit Japan they'd gelled a lot more and it was a delight to see the band grow together. I think my favourite out of all of the GACKT/YFCz lives I've attended was the Swimsuit Live last year because they just cut loose and had fun with each other - seeing those genuine smiles on GACKT's face as he was shooting Jon with a super soaker was amazing.

I've enjoyed the music and I think they have every right to be proud of the album they made in this year (well done Takumi and YOU!) but my favourite aspect of YFCz is the members. They're all adorable and have their own personalities and that shone through.

And hey, who can't love this wonderful piece of choreography!

I really love YFC. They were kind of an instant hit for me when "The End of the Day" came out, and I've loved all of their music they've put out all the way up through YFC I. I think that they put out a spectacular album. I wasn't disappointed at all and I think it felt like a really good sound for them. I've been listening to it non-stop ever since it came out. Takumi and You really showed what kind of composers they are, and I think Gackt and Jon's combined lyricism was really well done. I think all of the members have grown together and they can all now work together well to make music that is pretty unforgettable ( ... )

Well, at first I wasn't sure about it all, but I trusted G and his decisions. And, I wasn't disappointed <3. That's pretty much everything in a nutshell XD LOL

My memory? That bit of time they had after the one show and right before Berlin, G had time to answer alot of emails, including mine. That made my whole year <3.
