So here it is :D

http://www.zshare.net/download/50473163f8e602f0/ Suna no Oshiro CM

^^Thanks for the CM and the 3rd Thread!!!! (I was hoping we could use GRACE's title but it doesn't matter!!!!)

I like the CM for Suna No Oshiro! They've made it really effective-looking!!

Arigatou for the CM and yay for the 3rd Thread ^^

Any Kanon news so far?

the b-side hasn't leaked yet?:( i was hoping that would happen^^'

Leaks usually occur with more prominent artists though, right? It seems like we'll have to wait closer to the release date for a chance of a leak.

I really hope it's like really ballet-like. Tchaikovsky-like material would be sweet.

Hurrah! It's November!!! It's almost time for Suno No Oshiro to come out!!!

I'm really excited about her debut album *-* what do you guys think, how will Suna no Oshiro make on Oricon?

less that still doll

I think it will be less than still doll too actually.

why do you guys think it will be less?o.O

maybe because with her debut single, she was new and some people were interested. but now, maybe they just aren't interested anymore? :shrug

VKG is not popular as the first season is and its main and only single tie in...
they didnt even get a single a promotion in tv....and usually people 2nd single sell worse than debiut beacouse people lose a interesed in artist

I don't think it'll reach the top 10. I seriously doubt it. But I can hope...

:( i hope it won't be less than Still Doll, but really... they should promote it more, but i don't think that kind of music is popular in Japan right now o_O

maybe they think that Mana's name in cm gives everything

i hope it will sell good... it is such a good single... but we know what happen to music without promotion : /

I wonder when "skip turn step" will leak.

it is just 9 days we can wait

^True, but I'm really excited for the song. :D
I hope it's not a ballad. I hope it's happy song :yes

I'm hoping Kanon does well she is so talented she deserves it

Really? 9 days? Only?! I lost count :laugh

But that's great! It's coming out really soon!!

for me it is just 7 from now xD

lol I feel like we're waiting for a baby.

boy or girl xDD?
Can we call baby Suna no Oshiro ? <lol> XDDD

There's news about an album? =oo *WANTS*

^^No news yet. We're just getting over-excited....

LOL. :roflmao

6 more day til Suna no Oshiro release.

I was just too dreamy ... :grumpy

I can see the anticipation for this single is huge! I've been counting down the days too.

I don't think anyone has mentioned yet, but Kanon was in the last issue of the magazine FOOL'S MATE, but I'm still looking for scans. I think it's supposed to be an interview about her second single/INDIVIDUAL FASHION EXPO performance, and there's a comment from Mana.

And something cool I found! Someone transcribed the sheet music for still doll. I'm not a Cello player, but that looks complicated to me. >.>

Waw. If that's the sheet for still doll I don't think I want to ever see the sheet of Suna No Oshiro!!!

^Oh my! thanks so much for the sheet! now i can play it in school! but there's so much flat, and i must take a very long time to practice it XP

I want to see the scans! Hope someone is able to find 'em soon.

Also~~~ 4 more days until Suna no Oshiro. :luv2

does anyone have the translation of suna no oshiro? i need it, please

In the quietly waiting casle...
In a thirsty time of change.
Ah ash coloured me...
is just vanishing slowly...
Need to die...

Gather the stars...
and building a casle of sand.
Where i utter a soft prayer...
Ambused by those footsteps.

Falling into dust...
Flowing away...

"Please"...
Someone.
--------
At the first eye catch it seems too less but I think this is it - Kanon just sing slow xD and the repeating parts are removed

^ It's the same thought I had when I saw still doll's translation. Doesn't matter since the lyrics speak alot from little use of words.

3. stinkin'. days. left. Oh boy, am I excited!!! I hope someone uploads the single soon!!!

thanks :love i like it

I like the meaning of Suna no Oshiro.
I really can't wait to hear what skip step turn will sound like :luv2

I have already that pictures of gazette..well someone have this magazine..

How much does everyone thing Suna no Oshiro will sell?
I guess about 12000 units....
Am I totally off?

In it's first week?

In it's first week I'm guessing only about 2-3k. It doesn't really have that much promotion and that's about the same amount still doll sold in it's first week. I still think it's going to sell less than still doll... but... being proven wrong about it wouldn't be a bad thing xD

I found the scans.
Thanks to kozabo on Livejournal~

No new pictures of Kanon but they used my favourite picture of Mana so that makes me happy. *-*

Thanks for the scans! I want her Cello. =D

Thank you for the scans!
The dress is so beautiful!

Thanks for those scans!!! Kanon looks awesome!!!

I found this on Poupee Girl. The Poster looks gorgeous~

I'd love to have it on my wall.

Wow that poster is really awesome!

Did that poster come with the limited edition Suna No Oshiro CD?? Cause if it did, I should be getting it anyday... :D

Another poster? :O
I havent' even put up the first one yet :P

That is the limited edition, but I thought you just got the stickers with the limited edition.

Kanon will be in the December issue of ARENA37, so I'll be looking out for scans~

Kanon will also be doing a performance, as I understand it, at the Laforet Underground Party, which is in the Laforet Museum Harajuku, which is on November 23. Here's the official site although Kanon's name isn't on the performance list yet. I also understand that the latest Picture Diary entry is going to be shown in an exhibition in the hall on that day, and entrance to the event is free.

Also, the ConnecteD page is up, and there's a link on the Kanon's site, which means if you have brought the Suna no Oshiro CD then you get to access the special content.

Come on, i thought it would leak today :(

Ugh, still no leak? *frowns*

Today 28 for Kanon

^^Ummm.... I don't think that's good enough :( Suna No Oshiro deeserved a lot more...

No leak yet? That's sad :(

No leak yet?
... I hate this.

only 28? O_O

unfortunately..yes ... I hope that in the next few days goes better

I have to go pick up my package tomorrow since I missed the delivery (:(), so I'll upload it then if no one beats me to it.

Thank you!!

at least it's in the top 30 in oricon, right? i never knew when it actually stops. like is it top 20, top 30, top 50? :laugh

but anyway, i hope the single leaks soon.

I was planning to upload the single myself sonsidering I had ordered it... but Yesasia had to cut off my order because my credit card no. is still hacked :weep I'm so disappointed!! I'm sorry everyone!! I hope the leak comes soon!!

:lech

^^Thanks!!!

EDIT: OMG!!!!! I just heard skip turn step and it is AWESOME!!!! Totally different from Kanon's older stuff but it is so amazing!! It has that Vampire Knight-ish theme to it too... so that makes it all the better. Oh, and it's catchy! :P

Wow! I love skip turn step! It's both the longest song in Kanon history and the most upbeat and the one closest to happy.

I don't like the b-side very much :( maybe i need to get used to it...

I 100% agree with you! I absolutely love it~
Actually listening to it a few times it reminds me of a lot of one of MALICE MIZER's early songs. I just wish I could remember the name of the song. X3

It took till about halfway through, but I like skip step turn~ Not as much as her previous b-side, but it's cute <3

I really like skip turn step. It's really close to what I was hoping for ^_^ I can't decide if I like it better than Black Birdcage, but they'll probably end up being on the same level.

The orgel version of Suna no Oshiro really isn't as scary as I thought still doll was. But I like it.

I think it's impressive she broke into the Top 30. I mean, her style kind of appeals to a certain demographic, imo. It's not like everyone is into that genre of music. Vampire Knight must be popular in Japan...

I really adore skip step turn! The song is so happy!

EDIT: At the end of Suna no Oshiro she is whispering something, does anyone know what?

I'm not liking skip turn step♪ much myself. I like that's happy but it doesn't really interest me.

I don't know the original romanji... but whatever she whispers means: "please... someone...."

^ Onegai Dareka

This single is amazing. Definitely better than her debut one in my opinion.

I agree ^.
What are the chart positions so far? Is it doing well?

So has anyone been able to access the special site yet? It won't work for me :(

first day: -- -- -- -- -- --↑28　分島花音 「砂のお城」
second day: -- -- -- -- -- 28＼30　分島花音 「砂のお城」
third day: -- -- -- -- 28 30↓42　分島花音 「砂のお城」
fourth day: -- -- -- 28 30 42↓--　分島花音 「砂のお城」 (out of the top 50)

Okay, thank you!

Can you download something on the special site? I know that the special site for Koda Kumi's album Kingdom, you could download a clock, a wallpaper, a screensaver and something more ...

That's weird~
It says you have to have the CD in your drive and you're supposed to go to the ConnecteD page and click on the button on the bottom of the page, and with the adequate plugins, it should work. If not, you have to go to the ConnecteD home page, and download the stuff from there and that should make it work.

Kanon will be in the December edition of KERA. It says there will be an interview, and that she'll also be in one of the columns to do with culture and music.

She's out of the top 50?:eek This single is soo good it's not even funny.

^ Japan is weird like that =/

^Yeah, it's in the lyrics too.

the girl needs to work on her english though.

^^Lol. Yeah. Did you hear the way she said "skip turn step"??? It sounded like "skeeep ton skeeep". Her voice is cute but her English accent.... :no

That sucks. Already?! it should have stayed in the top 30 for at least a week or something.... :(

I can't even hear Kanon say "turn" in skip turn step. Sounds like "skip step".

^ That's exactly what I heard xD I find it totally adorable though, for some reason.

I like her newest single! <3 It's nice to hear something different from her with "skip turn step!"

You all can't here "turn"??? It's sooo evident!!

I wish i knew the sales of Suna No Oshiro

^ I can slightly hear a "t" sound but not that well. It's like she says it too fast.

I don't hear turn either ...

I hear toe~ X3

I can't find the lyrics for skip turn step♪ anywhere. ;-;
