:yes

another prime eg. Gorillaz

+ I remembered GReeeeN's lead singer HIDE said that they will only reveal their faces only if their daytime jobs's bosses are OK with it

I still find it hard to believe that they're trained in dentistry :O

apple-pi 11th November 2008 02:28 PM

^WHAT. They're dentists? No way O__O

I know O_O

which probably explains why the band's logo's like a shape of a mouth & etc ? :shrug

Covers for Tobira are out !

CD Only :

http://wiki.theppn.org/images2/b/bf/TobiraG.jpg

2 CDs :

http://wiki.theppn.org/images2/5/5d/Tobira_2CD.jpg

The 2 CDs cover's so nice & christmas inspired , kinda a no brainer as to why there's a door for the CD only's case

apple-pi 13th November 2008 10:10 AM

^CD-only cover reminds me of Ai Uta! And is it just me, or is the Christmas tree in 2CD made out of numbers?

BTW people, a radio rip of the song leaked. I downloaded it but for the life of me cannot upload it and I have no idea why. I don't think we can post other people's leaks at AHS, so I'll just add a link to the topic @ KMC. If anyone else could post it here, that would be great :)

The song's really good :heart It's another feel-good one, and it's laid-back and sweet~ yay~

KarenPang 13th November 2008 10:16 AM

awesome thanks a lot for the link for Tobira , will download it now <3 & yes the 2CDs only of Tobira makes up of the no. 4 which I think implies the no. of people in the band

EDIT - Tobira sounds great , it's very christmas inspired though

apple-pi 17th December 2008 04:48 PM

omg I totally forgot about checking this single's sales.
so anyway, I just looked at oricon, and if anyone's curious, 1st + 2nd week sales = 55629 copies sold so far.

kenniFlyHigh 17th December 2008 10:51 PM

yay, tobira and the other new songs from their single sounds great, i really love them so much

this I HAVE to HEAR in due time man :laugh

Tobira was just released a mere 2 weeks ago & in comes another new single :O

I doubt it can go #1 because their new single will be released on the same day as KinKi Kids's Yakusoku T_T

kenniFlyHigh 18th December 2008 05:56 PM

thanks for the news on the new single
haha the title cracked me up

ahhh, Kinki Kids.... when these other boy bands release, it's hard to beat them, especially Johnny's

apple-pi 18th December 2008 07:01 PM

Hahaha. Hahahahahahahaha XD
I just got CDJapan's upcoming artist newsmail on this, nice title lol XD but since "ayumi" apparently means "to walk/step" or something like that, it actually sounds very GReeeeN-ish for a song title~
And yeah, man, this was FAST! Tobira has barely been released! How awesome!

@ Karen, yeah - anything beats HIGH G.K LOW in sales~ that single was a sad case :no and probably the reason the Ai Uta PV turned out so freaking cheap. XD

Though, I think the success of Kiseki and their latest album is helping them out, cause Tobira seems to be selling better than the rest of their non-hit singles... I think their pre-Kiseki singles all sold around 40k overall, right? (there's no wiki to check T_T)

kenniFlyHigh 18th December 2008 07:38 PM

^ yeah, that's right... Tobira is their best selling single after their hit ones
you can check their sales at Wikipedia
since the other wiki isn't working, i started using that one >.<

Universal's sure daring to go up against Johnny as this will be the 4th time that GReeeeN will be going up against a JE band

Actually I'm surprised that HIGH G.K LOW did so poorly in terms of sales & chart rank , I thought it might have been better but that really surprised me

it's too bad because I like that song even though it sounds whack in a way :laugh

at least after Ai Uta , things have been going well for them since then & Kiseki just propel them up even higher than ever

kenniFlyHigh 19th December 2008 08:46 PM

i like HIGH G.K LOW too. it's such a fun song
when i saw it's sales, i almost flipped...i didn't think that it would be so low

apple-pi 19th December 2008 09:58 PM

I guess people just don't care so much for GReeeeN's crazy, more hip-hoppy songs... like HIGH G.K LOW, Party People, Reggae Reggae, Boyonka Boyoyonka~ I think they're all hot though XD ESPECIALLY Party People and Reggae Reggae :heart those songs are CRACK XD

but since they weren't popular back then and were just starting out, they should've kept just the pop songs to release as singles~

BTW, am I the only one who thinks almost all of their b-sides were just as good as the a-sides? I REALLY hope they'll release a b-side best one day :(

erm I can't comment much on that because so far Tobira's the 1st single I heard of the guys in full

kenniFlyHigh 20th December 2008 10:09 PM

i love their b-sides just as much as their a-sides
the songs are fantastic!
