[NEWS] / [テゴマス] / [山下智久] The 24th ～U R not alone～

Yes I agree , some of the old songs that 9/8 members NEWS sang back in the old days , listening to them now does make me cringe at times

But in a way it's quite a sight to see how much NEWS has progressed music wise . They weren't that experimental in the past but quartet NEWS now has been more bolder in tackling music styles they never done before

I'm surprised that NEWS actually sounds quite good in doing angsty rock like NEVERLAND's BLACK FIRE . I was a bit shocked cos it's not what they're known for but they tackled it quite well

That's what kind of irked me about NEWS in the beginning, Johnny's seemed to throw random pop songs at them. KAT-TUN had a more mature sound, Kanjani8 a more playful sound, but NEWS seemed to not really have a direction. I mean, KAT-TUN and Kanjani8 have all types of different songs, too, but it seemed Johnny's didn't really know what to do with NEWS.
I'm glad when you say that they have a more experimental pop sound now. It seems they found their own sound. ^^

And Nishikido is actually one of the more tame Kanjani8 members. lol Perhaps he just gets swept by all the craziness around him.

It's funny when you say that because NEWS was originally the short form of North East West South LOL.

LOL

But you can't go in four different directions at once, so it makes sense, doesn't it? ^_-
