I don't see why the lip syncing discussion is still even going on. :shrugs Comapred to other places, Japan has the most lip syncing. If you watch any Korean live performance, it's usually always live. Japan has usually almost lip syncers. It's not just Arashi. I honestly don't see the big deal.

Anyways, I need to watch the new HnA!! I can't believe he got picked! :weep

^Huh? I read it's the other way around. I can't say for sure, though, but that's what I read.

mmm maybe you're right Aga to a certain extent

Because I support practically the whole of Johnny's bands except for SMAP & TOKIO at the mo , I do watch a LOT of their live performances & etc & unfortunately I have to say that I realise ARASHI tend to be the one that lip synchs the most

I don't know if that's considered a good or bad thing (when I see NEWS , Tegomass & KAT-TUN's live performances in variety shows & concerts , they sound raw which's a good thing to me)

ANYWAY ....

my sister's excited to watch this week's HnA . I almost unwillingly give her spoilers & etc OOPS :lmfao

she was like DON'T TELL ME DON'T TELL ME :laugh

ka♡ri. 10th July 2009 02:16 AM

^That's what I don't like. When groups go on TV and they aren't prepared and sound a mess. I'd rather have a lip synced performance than one that sucks. Like that terrible KAT-TUN MS Medly.... :no They should've just lip synced and spared us omg.

aga;; Koreans really stress live performances. And I've only been into Kpop for a year and singing live is a really big thing. I've hardly seen people lip sync. And when they do, it's for a certain reason. Which I'm sure is what Arashi does.

I don't think KAT-TUN screwed up that 10 songs MS special medley imo & I think it flows quite well from the start to the end & to think I thought they might go according to single releases sequences but I like that they mix it up here & there which's cool & unexpected .

Frankly I will hate it if they lip synch . It will be too perfect for my liking & that's what live performance's all about .

It's not easy to sound the same live as what you hear on a CD (I only can think of 4 artistes that's able to do that & no they're not Johnny's at all) & if things start to get too perfect , isn't that creepy ?

other than supposedly concealing their fatigue , the only thing I can think of's they try to concentrate on their dance moves on those fast ones like Crazy Moon & Believe

lol. Actually you've got it pretty backwards. Until recently Japan was known as a country that rarely lip synchs. Its unfortunately starting to get more common, but its still better than most countries. I don't know about Korean acts these days (although it seems some artists are making more of an effort to sing live) but traditionally, Korea has been pretty much all lip synch all the time for the most part.

The reason why Arashi lip syncs? I personally think its because their live voices often do not mesh well with one another. Its obvious they weren't chosen as a group because they harmonize well together. :) When they sing individually their voices are fine, but in total live performances when they sing together with no use of a back track sometimes it can honestly sound close to a train wreck. haha. Just check out old performances on Domoto Kyoudai for example.

ka♡ri. 10th July 2009 05:54 AM

^They used to be definitely. But nowadays it's really frowned upon. In Japan, not so much. To be honest I didn't even notice that so many Japanese artists lip sync until now.

Karen;; I said nothing about the flow. They sounded terrible. I think they might have the worst lives, IMHO.

anyways, i still think people should get over it. it's not that big of a deal. i'd rather hear a perfect performance than risk hearing a cracking voice or something out of pitch. :rolleyes

Aga-chan 10th July 2009 06:48 AM

^Well, I can be more tolerant about lip synching when it comes to TV performances than concerts. If it's a long setlist and they need a break, it's OK. But when most of it is lip synched, there is no need to hold a concert. Like Karen said, you could just listen to the CD.

KAT-TUN doesn't even harmonize well on CD. xD It's quite apparent that they weren't formed to sing. lol

ll moments ll 10th July 2009 07:59 AM

^ KT was a dance group, initially. i didn't think Koichi Domoto was expecting his temporary back-dancing group to become who they are today, LOL. ^^

well, kaori, you did bring the topic up again & keep pressing it anyway, so why can't we talk about it? no harm having a conversation about it, really. we're just having a honest conversation about it. this is what the thread is for.

& LMFAO 4EVER @ thinking KAT-TUN may be the worst live performers. wow. i'm not even going to comment on that one. :)

Aga-chan 10th July 2009 08:56 AM

^Yes, I know. And it shows. lol Taguchi and Ueda usually stick out.

:roflmao which's NOT a bad thing since they're both my fave DoM & DoS in the group :smitten

===

anyway YAY I got hold of Everything earlier on at the local HMV alongside with Tanabata Matsuri :

eee I love that pic inside the Everything CD sleeve :luv2 & Lisa I will be mailing out your copy tomorrow which I'm so excited to do so :D

ka♡ri. 10th July 2009 02:17 PM

Actually Irene you did. o: And you have for the past few threads. :shrugs

But KAT-TUN is. o:
If they're not even in harmony on the CD how can they do it live?
I'm just speaking honestly. :yes
They might not be my favorite group, but NEWS does really well live with synchronization and harmonies, Arashi does too when they sing live, but KAT-TUN doesn't and I have yet to see a performance where they have. I mean I know they're your favorite group, but geez~ :shrugs

And anyways. I'm over it. :)

minna 10th July 2009 02:56 PM
