Koizumi Norihiro directed 2006's Taiyou no Uta which YUI starred in & which Good-bye days was used to promote the movie

Wow so crazy to know it has been 12 years since Good-bye days was released @_@ , still 1 of YUI's best songs to date

Yeah the Blu-ray ISO filesize is so big , it's not funny D:

I downloaded the Blu-ray ISO and the movie itself luckily has English subtitles . I will downsize the file to .mp4 because my mum's netbook cannot play Blu-ray files as the quality is way too big and Blu-ray files keep freezing on me x_x

I hope after I downsize the file , the English subtitles on the file will be intact :x

Alternatively for now , you can watch/stream Taiyou no Uta via https://kissasian.es/Drama/Taiyo-no-Uta/Movie?id=17291

The file that kissasian uploaded on their website , it has English subtitles

If for some reason after I downsize the file from Blu-ray to .mp4 and if there're no English subtitles , the next alternative is that I upload the file for you that kissasian posts on their website

At least for this , the filesize is more manageable but I keep you posted on it

Ok I finished downsized Taiyou no Uta significantly from the Blu ray ISO

The Blu-ray version of Taiyou no Uta is a whopping 32.9GB which's so insane @_@ D: , the downsize file I got after I converted it to .mp4 , it's about 2.61GB haha

However , the downsized file , as expected it doesn't have any English subtitles :x

So now I don't know what're your plans , you still want me to upload the converted raw file or you're ok with the version that kissasian uploads on their website ? :confused

hud 6th June 2018 05:17 PM

omg, thank you Karen! I'm taking that file on kissasian! the size is fine and I'll need the subtitles hahaha it's downloading super fast, so nice!

thank you so much for your help!

Anyway, I'm excited for the release, mostly for the live CD (I doubt I'll get to see the video recording). The poster is really nice. :)

I do agree. SMEJ's 'protectionist' stance is atrocious. This is not healthy business - they're pretty much the largest label in Japan (aside from Avex), but unlike Avex, they're limiting its J-pop videos to Japan only when they don't realize we have foreign fans like us - and some artists do attract foreign fans such as YUI/FLOWER FLOWER and the Sakamichi groups! At least Nogizaka46 started not geoblocking for its newest videos, but it's still a problem with Keyakizaka46 as well.

(Sorry if I already said it before, but this isn't the only area Sony plays the 'walled garden' game: there's also the more well-known PS4 crossplay blocking with other consoles as well. And Vevo doesn't count as well - it's only a band-aid fix, not a 100% fix since, as what Karen said in another thread before, the video quality is sometimes not up to par, which was evident in the Vevo upload for Keyaki's 'Ambivalent' music video.)

Another shotgun marriage...

KarenPang 3rd September 2018 08:13 AM

Yeah it's very obvious it's another shotgun marriage

But at least yui's soon to be 2nd husband is willing to take responsibility for the pregnancy . He could have been a jerk and let yui raise her unborn kid on her own , that would be a lot more worst and terrible

TIMELESS SESSIONS in YOKOHAMA that featured yui & other artistes have been uploaded , which WOWOW aired 2 days ago



http://krmusicblog.com/tv-show-timel...81yuiflower-f/

Psyched to watch the footages later on & from the size of the .ts , it's probably about 2 hours ?

KarenPang 4th September 2018 11:25 AM

I finished downsizing the .ts of June's TIMELESS SESSIONS in YOKOHAMA

WOWOW aired the full concert which's about 2 hours long . yui's performance inclusive of Yaida Hitomi's Look Back Again that both ladies did together is about 30 mins

I haven't watch finish yui's performance but the acoustic performance of FLOWER FLOWER's Powerful is very refreshing , quite different from what I heard in Spotlight CD

Kacku 4th September 2018 11:47 AM

I'm interested in seeing not only yui's part but also NakamuraEmi. 23 parts though... :faint

By the way, has anyone seen the live CD of the Inko no Have a Nice Day Tour up anywhere? I haven't found a download yet but I want to hear the album.

Yeah I never like .ts files to begin with cos the filesize is so big x_x

Ubugoe is the only song that yui sung that she didn't played the guitar alongside (not counting Yaida Hitomi's Look Back Again she did with her) , the other songs yui played it

I didn't know yui knows how to whistle prior to seeing her sing YUI's CHE.R.RY & I'm amazed the song is still so popular after all these years

The audience clearly still love it

All in all TIMELESS SESSIONS in YOKOHAMA is a really nice concert , very different from the typical rock concert I'm used to seeing of any artiste

P.S you might want to check your PM inbox ;)

Thank you very much. :heart

I agree the concert seemed really nice, and yui performed very well. I must say I wasn't a huge fan of this version of Powerful, this song was not made to be performed with a restrained, acoustic arrangement. Coffee and Ubugoe were very good, and CHE.R.RY was a cool surprise. I wasn't familiar with this song beforehand (or any of yui's pre-FLOWER FLOWER material, for that matter), but it was nice and catchy (the whistling!), I'm not surprised people remember it fondly.

But I can't help but wonder: how much time did yui and Hitomi Yaida have to practice their duet? Because it seemed like they both needed the sheet music desperately. :laugh

KarenPang 4th September 2018 04:39 PM

^ Glad you enjoy yui's performance in TIMELESS SESSIONS in YOKOHAMA :)

Yeah I think Powerful wasn't meant to be 1 of those songs sung in acoustic mode but yui did it pretty well . She probably should have gone for another Spotlight album track , maybe Tokei ?

yui's vocals were on point and her solo songs are still great . I'm surprised out of so many still great YUI songs in her solo discography , CHE.R.RY is probably her most popular , 2nd to perhaps Goodbye days and maybe LIFE

As for yui's duet with Yaida Hitomi's Look Back Again she did with her onstage , lol either yui is not familiar with the song or like what you said , both ladies didn't had enough time to rehearse the duet together

It beats screwing up the lyrics so with them holding the lyrics sheet , at least they had some assurance backup plan , haha

Oh wow . The brief previews posted on Twitter frankly don't do justice , the preview posted on Recochoku is a lot more convincing

Kamisama -band acoustic ver.- still has some gruff & attitude

Kacku 26th February 2019 07:07 PM

Somehow, I had a hunch they were going to do Kamisama... Based on the previews, it sounds... good. It has energy and attitude, but I'm not getting the grit I need from this song. I think I'm just spoiled by the original studio version, it's pretty much perfect and any other version has a tough job trying to match that feat.

You probably might not like Kamisama -band acoustic ver.- then cos yeah it's not as gruff angsty as the original but it's still a nice listen

Kamisama -band acoustic ver.- has a lot more Bossa Nova flair and the Cello presence is quite strong

Based on FLOWER FLOWER digital release catalogue , wouldn't surprise me if they will put out the following band acoustic version songs as per say :

- Aki
- Natsu
- Subarashii Sekai

FLOWER FLOWER's yui is now a mother of 4

Quote:

It's been reported that FLOWER FLOWER vocalist yui had given birth to her fourth child last month.

According to reports, the singer gave birth to her first daughter in early-February. Both yui and her baby are in healthy condition.

Last September, yui married a non-celebrity man who works in the sports industry. At that time, she announced that she was five months pregnant.

yui has a set of twin boys and another boy from a previous marriage (April 2015 - August 2017).

yui will focus on taking care of her children for the time being, but plans to make her comeback in summer.
https://www.tokyohive.com/article/20...-a-mother-of-4

Oh wow that's unexpected o_O but quite hard to believe yui has 4 kids now

At least yui at last have a daughter in the family , I can't believe if all her kids are boys :dead2

But anyway congrats to her

Kacku 5th March 2019 10:54 AM

I didn't even remember Yui had three children already. :laugh Great that she and the baby are healthy, congratulations to the whole family!

Yeah me too , I knew she had twin boys but didn't expect she already had another boy soon after that o_O

At least her 4th baby is a girl which I'm sure she's overjoyed about it

The thought of yui taking care of 4 boys in a household is wow :dead2

And looks like I'm wrong , the latest FLOWER FLOWER digital single is not a band acoustic version song

Instead , it's a new song titled Tomoshibi which can be purchased digitally immediately

Kacku 26th March 2019 03:29 PM

Wasn't expecting a new song, but I can't wait to hear Tomoshibi! I just wish Sony wasn't being weird about releasing their music internationally again, they released the acoustic band version of Tsuki reasonably soon after its original release but no sign of Kamisama or Tomoshibi so far...

And happy birthday to Yui! (And me. :laugh)

FLOWER FLOWER release new song on yui's birthday

Quote:

FLOWER FLOWER has digitally released their new song "Tomoshibi" on yui's birthday, March 26.

FLOWER FLOWER digitally released the band acoustic version of "Tsuki" in January, then the band acoustic version of "Kamisama" in February.

On their new song, yui commented, "With the support of many people, we aged and experienced many things. Because of it, we were able to write this song. The theme of this song is love."
https://www.tokyohive.com/article/20...-yuis-birthday

KarenPang 4th April 2019 05:05 PM

Today is exactly 12 years since YUI released her 2nd album CAN'T BUY MY LOVE

Damn that's so surreal o_o That to me is still YUI's best album to date as up to now I still can remember how most of the album tracks sound like such as How crazy , Thank you My teens and Happy Birthday to you you

Rolling star ftw !
