[KAT-TUN] ムラサキ -KAT-TUN Thread #15- ♪

[ll moments ll]

haha, i wonder if Kame will comment on ZEBRA QUEEN.

yeah, i don't think Jin will be there either. he's not going to be in the single, so i don't see the point of going there. maybe he'll comment VTR or something, but otherwise, i'm not expecting him at all.

maybe they'll bring up LA study abroad jokes again.

That would be cool. I think Kame likes Riisa. She was also in My Boss, My Hero with Koki but I doubt they interacted a lot.

"Agent Nakamaru" keeps on being a nice tease!! . In his latest JWeb entry mentions muscular pains and stiffness (poor him XD)and the recording of a funny video to use during the Arena Tour

LOL cute

Kame will be in Dazed & Confused Japan June Issue

awesome , Dazed & Confused Japan has some of the best magazine shots I have seen of a magazine

past Johnny's like MatsuJun & Yamapi were featured on it so I think the photoshoot's going to be amazing to look out for (other than POPEYE among others of course )

All Amercan Tickets has updated with the extra seats for "You&Jin U.S.A" that are still not sold out

I think it will happen soon

[ll moments ll]

All-American Tickets was so confusing, good lord. it wouldn't let me get tix. i suggest Ticketmaster if any of you are going. also, if you buy from All-American Tickets, you'll have to pick up your tix from CLUB NOKIA the day of the show. i don't think there's any other options....

yay for new Kame photoshoot. i'm excited.

omg the screencaps for the Going ! PV looks very good O_O . Very white white & more white . ARGH Ueda @_@ is it bad that I didn't singled out Kame in here xD

& LOL those Agent Nakamaru snippets are hilarious & cracks me up big time xD xD

Pictures and images for the concerts have also been taken and will include swords, according to several descriptions most of the swords look like "European Medieval"

O_O''' indeed

please don't tell me that they will be dressing up as fighters warriors in their upcoming tour ? they so stole that idea from BREAKERZ if it's true xD

And Maru's new section title is "Grandpapa Maru's Lectures"



what ........

[Beauty4123]

the PV reminds me of SIGNAL and arashi's kaze no mukou e because of the white/gray-ish theme. it looks really nice! nakamaru got a haircut, i see, lol. he looks good

[KarenPang]

lol yeah come to think about it , it does , Lisa o_O

wouldn't be surprised if the director's the same for both SIGNAL & Kaze no Mukou e

[ll moments ll]

PV looks crisp & nice! i definitely get a white "SIGNAL" vibe from it. all the boys look wonderful too!

UTB STAFF UPDATE ON YOU&JIN IN USA

UTB Staff Updates their blog on YOU&JIN in USA ticket sales:

"It's been a long time. Everyone, Akanishi Jin-san's concert tickets started selling on the 15th. And now, it's almost sold out. No wonder for a Johnny, such great popularity. Since this is the first America tour for a Johnny's musician. What kind of a concert will this turn out to be, and, what kind of guests will turn up, from now on, this will be greatly looked forward to.

There are almost no tickets left. Definitely get your tickets before it's all sold out~!"

[ll moments ll]

....lol no, i don't think so.

KT-TUN had their open rehearsal today, so here's a potential tracklist for the concerts!

Fall Down
Real Face
ONE DROP
Keep the faith
HELL NO

Going!
喜びの歌 (Yorokobi no Uta)
WILDS OF MY HEART
Peacefuldays
僕らの街で (Bokura no Machi de)

Encore:
Jumpin' Up
Smile

TSUYAKA

looks like Smile will be...either a NEIRO-type ballad (since its encore) or an upbeat song (...since its encore). only Ueda & Junno have new solos. which i assume will be released on KAT-TUN's next single.

this is Kame's solo song from DREAM BOYS:


it's no 1582...but i like the beat! (and apparently he's doing a vampire-influenced solo, L-M-F-A-O) oh Kame...you & your over-the-top self. ahahahaha. ILU.

[KarenPang]

sorry for asking about that underwear issue as a concert good xD . I know I shouldn't but I did ahaha

LOL Rabbit or Wolf as a song title ???? that's so Ueda xD if you ask me

Love music as a Natsu no Basho part 2 ? this I will like for sure

[dreamland2.0]

ooo I like the tracklist... especially Ai no Command!!!

[KarenPang]

me too

it's 1 of my fave tracks on QUEEN OF PIRATES & I'm glad that they're going to do it again live

but I wonder why they didn't include a live performance of SHOT ! in the QoP DVD , they should have ;__;

[Mai82Go]

KAT-TUN at MSte. I still don't really feel the song. Meh...and only Kame talked. Jin, of course, wasn't there. Maybe the others can talk a little bit in the following weeks....but Kame talked to Riisa and he even called her Riisa and not Naka-san or so. haha...

[KarenPang]

I'm not surprised that Kame did most of the talking since he's unofficially the spokesman of the group but yeah I wished that the other 4 would have said something

it's impossible to get Ueda to talk/say something seriously @_@ D:

I remembered that time when they were on HEYx3 to promote White X'mas , that was like the only time that he talked a fair bit cos of Mouse Peace & etc

take 2 of MUSIC STATION next Fri

2010.05.07

1. ikimono-gakari - Arigatou
2. KAT-TUN - Special Medley
3. Kumagai Ikumi - Getsu Koi Uta
4. Suga Shikao - Sayonara Home Run
5. Nakagawa Shoko - RAY OF LIGHT
6. Hilcrhyme - Daijoubu

I hope they're not going to do 12 songs for a Special Medley X_X

Going ! live performance from tonight's MUSIC STATION

after hearing Going ! in full , I have to say that this's probably their weakest sounding single to date X_X

I'm not sure if it's because Akanishi's vocals is not present but there's just something about the song that I feel that's lacking 'something' D:

& is it me or the guys looked unusually happy/upbeat like as if they don't seem to miss Akanishi when they performed Going ! ? hmmm

but they know how to work up a sweat or 2 with the crowd

You know I feel the same. I just cannot get into this song even though I want to. It's so blaa...boring, very Johnnyish, but more something HSJ or NEWS would do. But about the performance you're right, they all looked happy relaxed and like they really had fun. It's a shame that the song sucks so much. And even if Akanishi would sing a line or the chorus, the song would still be bad, I think.

yeah I tried also but it didn't work X_X

it frankly sounds like something the other Johnny's might do & the strange thing's that the writing/composing credits for both Going ! & Love yourself are the same group of people (of sorts)

is it any wonder on the fact that I feel Going ! is not going (pun unintended) to sell as well as Love yourself ?

even both the CD only & CD + DVD limited editions are not as fast as out of print as compared to the 2 CD + DVD's of Love yourself as of now on CDJapan

[Mai82Go]

^thing is people will say it's because of no-Akanishi that they will sell less. I really wanted them to have a strong song, when he's not involved. So we could've seen how they would have done without him. But this is not the case. It's unfair. Going! is not even having a drama just that sports show. I might be wrong, but I think most KAT-TUN listeners are not very interested in sport shows. And with Cartoon KAT-TUN gone, KAT-TUN are really having problems now, I think that even 3 times in a row at MS cannot solve. Maybe it'll be succesful. But outselling Love yourself is impossible, at least this is what I think.
