Thanks for saying that! you made my day! actually this post was made out of spite for my friend who says he is "perfect". i prefer in perfection because perfection itself is imperfect.

Ok there i go again talking so much nonsense. haha. glad you enjoy reading it :D

Your 4th paragraph could be written by me...
I'm sure that his performance on Shounen Club was lip-sinched, as many others performances on the show. I think that the point was to present the music and show a good (dance) performance. I don't have a problem with that.
I really like Kame-chan's voice, not because it's the best, but because it's unique and he portrays so much (and it is very sexy). I think that he could sing better, with more technic (spells?), but I know that isn't the priority on a boy band...
I loved Plastic Tears and the performance showed on SC (I have it on my cellphone, to watch on the way to work).

hmmm, im sorry if there are similar contents but... i did not refer to anybody's work when im doing this. if its the same, tell me again i will try to edit it or do something about it. haha.

wow, yeah, i guess ur right. it was more abt the sleek dance moves than singing.

yes, i do not believe that kame do not lip-synch. i feel that it was kinda obvious that he didn't really sing "live". kame's "husky" voice was not really portrayed out except on the "ahhh" part at the end and the entire song contrasted with that part kinda deeply.

haha, i think his voice is sexy but yup i agree he could do with more technique. anyway, i read somewhere that johnny entertainment's boys have more dance classes than singing classes so yup, we see where their priorities are at.

+1 for the last statement. i have 4 versions of the same thing on my laptop and 1 with translation on my phone :D

Sorry if I didn't make myself clear... I didn't mean to say that you wrote the same as me or anybody else. It's just that I can totally relate to your feelings about KAT-TUN & Kame-chan on that paragraph!

ahhhhh, sou desu ne!

hahaha. well, we are all kame and kat-tun fans yet we can remain objective to know that they are not the best all around. im glad you can relate to what i write XD

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
makes everything i write worth it :D

Thz 4 sharing!!i enjoy reading this and agree with a lot of points
i was also thinking if some parts were lip-sinched...i dun mind though
and the lyrics is...i dun quite understand why it is titled "Plastic Tears". Also some grammatical mistakes are obvious. I'm that kind of listeners who pay much attention to the lyrics,so the feeling is a bit weird.
Oh did i keep criticizing??I hv to say I luv the song and performance very much. Almost perfect dancing(I use the word "almost" coz i dun want to be absolute). I agree that this man cant be more sexy when he was alone, singing "come on.baby" etc. Not juz stunningly beautiful, i cud really feel from his eyes that he was encouraging me to "come on" and when he sang "I can take it", i nearly believed that this guy is going to take sll my sadness and throw it away. Kame's eyes can talk. Always firm and resolute.
Ur ending is fun but i do buy it XDD Yes i'm also a Kame fan so the song can be upgraded simply becoz of the singer.
Anyway thz 4 posting=]=]

heyhey!

i am glad you agreed with me at lots of points! :D haha, you are definitely not criticizing. yes, im curious to why it is titled "plastic tears" too. Do you realise that in the entire song, he or the autotuned voice did not sing "plastic tears" but "plastic"? i always end up hearing plastic but then it was not followed by "tears". honestly the lyrics are so badly coined! the phrases are all too long for the music and kame ends up having to drop some critical words along the way and make the entire thing sound senseless!

haha, i don't really pay attention to lyrics when they sing but i read the lyrics that they sing and evaluate from there. haha, similar observations eh?

+1 for the rest of your comment till the end. kame is a piece of art :D only better, because he is constantly renewing himself for new challenges and to entertain better with BOTH his body and his eyes hahahaha :D

Thanks for reading this too :D

hahahaha!

"plastic tears" was repeated so many times in the song u couldnt miss it so many times, could you?

yes i am glad to FINALLY found someone who has similar observation with me. i felt bad after the big quarrel with my friend about the lip-synching and stuff.

haha. yes the perf is definitely a good vid to start a tedious day at school huh? ^^

hello! Thanks for the review! Did you know (of course you wouldn't, i'm so baka..) that I stopped watching that perf already? because I can't think straight every time I watch it. ^^ and because I am biased, too although I agree with all the reviews you did, I would still rate it 5/5 because KAME sang it. Well, we can't stop being biased can we? ^^.

my favourite member is kame (the rest are all tied in second spot haha).
Absolutely what I feel, too! ^^.

nice review~!!! great assessment!
and I have to agree with you..
yeah.. plastic means fake.. we usually use that metaphor in our country..
and uhmm, I think lip-synching can't be helped, ne?..
and I have nothing to say.. hahaha..XD
maybe I'm the type of person, who focus on melody over lyrics.. but still, it's a nice song and performance, isn't it?..
thanks a lot for sharing your thoughts about it..^0^

thanks for reading my review! :D

hai! i thought so too, but the lyrics do not really match up to the "plastic tears" theme, ne?

haha, yup, it can't be helped, but what does it matter anyway, as long as the voice belong to kame, RIGHT? :D

its a good perf, 5/5 definitely XD

hei_mei December 27 2010, 13:26:29 UTC
