In old Chinese, 詩 can be used to mean both "poem" & "song", & that transferred to Japanese when they borrowed some characters. 歌 or 謳 are the more common ways of saying "song" now (as with Chinese, we pretty much say 歌 & never 詩).

Ohhh ok now i get it

Thanks Kakeru ^o^

I was just skipping through a lot of Dai's songs again and some of their live material as well and I was wondering if anyone knows a place that lists Ryo's equipment

I love his clean and warm distortion and would like to know which amp, guitar, dist. configuration he's using ^^ I wasnt able to find anything, so I would really appreciate it if anyone could tell me a place

Someone knows who raps in the song "Painful"? I liked a lot that song from the "BREAK OF DAWN" album... but the rap is not credited anywhere... Ryo raps? xD

Kakeru · #**186** 8th May 2006, 12:02 AM

Ya it is Ryo who raps, haha. They've performed that song live & it's Ryo who does it.

~Matt~ · #**187** 8th May 2006, 12:05 AM

Ohh thanks for the info... Ryo has future in rap ^_^

It's a shame... i'm just getting into DAI's music when they are already over...

but i bought Do The Box and i'm amazed by their works *o*

I have lots of questions right now about the band...

They will release their last song "Trust" or not?

there's no way I could afford buying anymore DAI collectible items..

davus0 · #**192** 3rd August 2006, 02:47 AM

Same here

enough = enough

greggerz189 · #**193** 4th August 2006, 12:41 AM

They should do a Do The Box II with a different colored box and calle it COLLECTABLE LIMITED EDITION. XD

~Matt~ · #**194** 4th August 2006, 03:04 AM

I'm happy because they are releasing their previously unreleased concerts ^o^

DerrickRocks · #**195** 29th August 2006, 02:06 AM

DAI must live!!!

xiaou-xijiang · #**196** 16th March 2007, 10:28 AM

Its a shame I became a fan at the beginning of the end of their carrier. :sigh

well in the mail is:
Do the Box (I'm so excited. In these the Albums have extended/extra and remastered tracks right?)
Do the A-side CD+DVD (I was wondering if the DVD has all of their PVs)
and
Do As Infinity Live in Japan

and I just received Do As Infinity Live in Japan II (Tour of Need Your Love)

I was wondering if anyone knew of where I could get some subs or translations for the DVDs and also some DAI fansites that have pics and such. (I already worship Do The Web, does anybody know of any others?)

sora2522 · #**197** 22nd March 2007, 04:10 PM

^ better than me. i just became a fan (well, not true, i've sorta been a fan since inuyasha, but i've got their first album a few days ago)

i wonder if the thread's still active...

xiaou-xijiang · #**198** 22nd March 2007, 04:21 PM

^this thread seems kinda dead, but I've been a fan ever since '05.

(I'm just now buying their stuff however. XD) I'm not gonna buy to much, because after you have Do The Box for the albums, Do the A-side for the Music Videos, everything else just seems to be very repeatitive. (I'm gonna try to get a photobook maybe, and the inst. collection, than I'm done.

)

You got Break of Dawn, that's awesome. I haven't listened to that album al the way through, I'm waiting until my shipments come in the mail, but its so hard.

This thread seems seriously dead though now that DAI has been disbanded for about 1 year and some months, but maybe you and I can liven it up a bit.

sora2522 · #**199** 22nd March 2007, 04:29 PM

^ hooray for me + spazzy posts XD

anyways, my friend has their whole discography, so i'll try to get their stuff from her =D

PSYCHEDELICOdust · #**200** 22nd March 2007, 05:51 PM

lol. It still lives.

I actually gave a listen to DEEP FOREST the other day as I was like, my DO THE BOX never gets any love.

I'd forgotten how much I adore Tadaima <3
