Reintegration.

I’m a music lover. As a kid, I dabbled at enough instruments to know that the only one I could claim even a moderate skill with was my voice, but even so, music remained central to my life. And it didn’t stop with my teenage years; whether it was Duran Duran or The Monkees, the Rat Pack or the Goliards, Paul Winter or Saint-Saëns, I have always

Everything about this post made me so happy! (and I was right there with you on Safe and Sound and Party Poison, I squeed in worlds collide glee!). Recently I've been replaying various Final Fantasy games, and we just bought ourselves an xbox, so I've been going on an old favorite anime downloading spree so I can watch them with the vuze + xbox + tv linkup system. :3

What's especially interesting is one of my favorite series, Violinist of Hamlen, was all about magical music. Incredibly appropriate in the long run as far as my fandoms went/go.

:D

I remember hearing "Safe and Sound" for the first time, it was such a big jolt; I really had completely forgotten how much I loved the sound of Japanese vocalists -- and of course Gerard Way seemed to fit in there perfectly!

I've been replaying all my games too, now that I've got my systems back. Just finished LoZ:TP and am waiting for a repair on my PS2 so I can delve back into FFX...love that franchise SO MUCH. ♥

Adding Violinist of Hamlen to my watch list; it already sounds interesting!

I felt the same way! It had been years since I'd listened to anything j-pop/j-rock/anime related, and then there was Gerard! Singing in a song for a game franchise that defined my high school and college years! And he really did fit so perfectly. And don't get me started on how much I flailed over Party Poison, Trey thought I was insane. XD

Digimon! Hehehehe. :3

The only reason I even ever have a Nintendo system is for Zelda! (I'm just getting ready to head into the Shadow Temple again...heh)

But you'll have to let me know what you think about those other FF games, because to be honest, I've only finished X and X-2 (I know X-2 isn't to everyone's taste, but I am shoujo to the depths of my doki doki heart and couldn't resist it. *grin*) and I don't feel like I can really claim to be a fan of the series until I get my hands on Squall play the other games.
