HONEY BEAT -The Johnny's Entertainment Sempai Thread #3- ♪

[Mr. Goto]

i like v6 and SMAP. i only started listening to v6 cause their early stuff is really similar to Namie Amuro's early stuff. cheesy eurobeat ftw As for SMAP i love their show SMAPxSMAP and Utaban (Nakai is a host) so i eventually decided to try their music. TOKIO, T&T, and Kinki have some really good songs too but I've never heard a full album by them.

thanks for the link karen i was meaning to look for subbed episodes of Mr Brain, even better that its streaming

oh and Coming Century album...from what i've heard their music isn't that good (their song ROCK THE HOUSE is one of the worst JE songs I've ever heard in my life). hopefully the new stuff is good.

[KarenPang]

lol Eirynne , my younger sister is scared of Gackt @_@

V6 - I start to follow their music from Chou onwards . Some of their previous works which were used to promote dramas & anime , I also like them like CHANGE THE WORLD , Darling

KinKi Kids - they're ace . When Secret Code was released , they were pretty much the last group I expected them to do a jazz influenced no. & they did it quite well somemore <3

[KarenPang]

V6's Spirit is getting a Taiwan press release next Fri , 2 days after the original release date in Japan

收錄於06/19 預定發行單曲「V6 / 精神」中

i hope he releases material...i quite like Koichi's solo stuff too. it's been forever since "No more".

[KarenPang]

you can download V6's Spirit full single via http://community.livejournal.com/music_mind/97382.html

Eirynne , how different/simliar is Koichi's solo tunes if you compare it alongside with Tsuyoshi ?

[ll moments ll]

totally different. lol.

Koichi is more KinKi Kids, than Tsuyoshi is. Tsuyoshi has always been somewhat experimental with his solo stuff. Koichi's solo material is somewhat more theatrical...it's quite similar to 99%LIBERTY, Bonnie Butterfly, Yakusoku, etc.

my favorite Koichi solo is "Tsukiyo no Monogatari" found on KinKi Kids' F Album, but his (only) solo album "mirror" is great as well.

[KarenPang]

oh that's neat , thanks for explaining

[Mr. Goto]

Question Eirynne , this's Koichi's 1st single in how many years exactly ?

& this update goes straight to the 1st post too

[Mr. Goto]

x->1->1->1 - V6 - 27,063 + 19,173 + 6,824 = 53,060
x->2->2->3 - K-On (Akiyama Mio) - 10,851 + 7,924 + 3,703 = 22,478

I hope they can reach 100k total sales. I finally heard the full Spirt single and it was better than I thought it would be. CHANCE! is really good . From the second disc red by 20th Century is good too, and the two Coming Century songs! I'm looking forward to their album now.

YESSSSSSS NEW KOICHI DOMOTO SINGLE. finally, JE's making the sempais active. WHOOO! & Karen, his last solo single was last year's "No more" but under the name of Maizu Tsukasa for the "Sushi Oji!" movie. but as Domoto Koichi, "Deep in your heart/+MILLION but -LOVE" was released July 2006.
