I am going to explode!!!!! It’s 1.30AM and I have been shrieking/clapping/LOLing/kyaaing/bouncing in my chair for the past few hours and I’m barely halfway through the MC collection! I banged my knees on the desk a few times by accident…

but I’ll really implode if I don’t post something.

MC TALKS = KA. WA. IIIIIIII

HOW CAN TWO SUCH CUTE PEOPLE EXIST?

Was just telling ribs that I’ve lost count of the number of msn conversations I’ve ended with people since I’ve started watching the DVDs because my messages have all become incomprehensible and no one has a clue, so they just ignore me… *sniff* But I really cannot control this verbal diarrhoea!!

Just finished watching the Premium Documentary to the Arena and Offshot A (finally!). It took me at least 3 times the actual runtime of the dvd to go through it all, hehe.

Here are just my thoughts on random things… really untidy, but it’s also just so that I can go back and revisit these favorite moments:
- Those silver pants on imai-san… O______________________O his smoking hot body in that tight black shirt and pants
- All the hadaka goodness
- Tsu with his track pants rolled up to his thigh…
- Seeing what they wear in private… kakkoii! I especially like the dark rimmed glasses.
Tsu’s clothes look like they’re from the 5th floor of Shibuya 109-2.
- I’m 95% positive that Takki’s black trenchcoat is the same as Tsu’s in the Potato 2/2008 photoshoot
(Read the rest of this entry)

- Them fooling around during rehearsals…
- Tsu’s silly poses while trying on the costumes. Takki rejecting that orange hat… and in that wig!!!
- Watching takki and jrs rehearse for kimagure jet, and takki approving the drawings for his jet design.. LOL
- Tsu’s adorable smiles when talking to the jrs
- Sanche-san = kawaii
- All the raw live recordings and vocals
- Seeing them enter and leave the same tourbus… yah i’m mad. LOL. especially seeing them enter the same van after THAT love catchball line in kanazawa (context of which Jenn has pointed out on her blog)…
- Watching them seriously discussing stuff during rehearsals… practicing dance together and takki whispering into tsu’s ear in Yamaguchi~~~
- The chotto dumbfounded look on the staffs’ faces when tsu was laying out the costumes for DMC. I was hoping he would whip out the chain and collar then… hehe
- DMC rehearsal…. *dies again* Fabulous example of tsukitty’s many faces… he’s so playful during the rehearsals… you would never think that the final product is what it transforms to on stage. Like eh? This is the same person?! Plus his flexible body… he just makes it look so effortless
- Not to mention all those glances we get of his backbone undies *cough*
- Guessing when tsu will be with hige… without hige… with hige again…
- Takki’s kamikami
- Shiny eyed tsu when takki was rehearsing Journey… takki watching tsu intently from the back while he sings Yakusoku. The editing for these 2 parts was great! That expression on takki’s face is the same expression as when he was watching the Sugao 3 replay while he was on SCP.
- Tsu singing DMC while walking down the corridor backstage LOOL
- Such a thoughtful surprise to the juniors from papa and mama
- Just seeing a small fraction of the work that goes behind the tour, and the fervor of the fans!

This DVD version is definitely a MUST HAVE for any fan. It showcases them in such natural and lovable states, and I lost count of how many times I burst out laughing/clapped out loud/did other exaggerated actions alone in my room.

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know everyone’s talking about it, but I have to talk about it too!!! *dance*

The sales numbers were dwindling the past couple of days, so I didn’t bother posting about them, but what matters is that this is their first ever #1 album. TAKITSUBA… OMEDETOU!!!

(^_^)V Yatta!

I’m so happy for the both of them, especially since this is a special 5th year release. Gives it the extra oooomph.

One more thing I’m so glad about, is that I get to be part of this achievement.
There is no better way to show them that they’re appreciated, than by helping them work towards their well-deserved number 1.
This is like passing the friction point in first gear, now to build up to second within the first few meters! (gomen, I just came back from my driving lesson… lol!)
Can’t wait for more new releases ^^

Still #1, but chotto bikkuri by the much lower number.

Thank goodness it’s friday even tho i have craploads to study, but my mood has been swinging violently today… from one extreme to another…

I’m over the moon because of what Takki did for Tsu’s b’day!
Such a romantic!!!
When I was coming home from dinner, I saw this man in a grey suit standing by a WHITE LIMO, obviously waiting for his date. I was just grinning away like a nut.
There’s no such thing as Jacuzzis in limos right? XD

Takitsuba = #1 again for the 17 Oct sales

Total sales so far = 32133 copies
Does this mean that this is the actual release date sales? I still don’t know what to make of it

wheeee I survived my exam! that’s another one down ^___^
my bf made an exam quiz on facebook, and I scored a grand total of 47%. It’s time to hit the books again…

but before that, I headed down to the city do run some errands, and had a slice of green tea gateau on behalf of tsu.
the simple pleasures of life!

I wonder how the evening show went… did takki manage to appear or send some form of message? sent his aikata heart marks on his keitai and the radio waves?
(will they be able to do anything special tonight? Tsu only has one show tomorrow.)
I can’t find anything on the bbs…
but the voyeur in me is dying to know!!! dareka oshiete?

ribs!!!! I don’t suppose she’ll come online. haha. To think I nearly irresponsibly decided to attend WWP with her. By some divine intervention, there were no air tickets and I ended up not being able to go. It’s saaaad T_T but I say it’s divine intervention because otherwise, I would be on the sure track of dropping out of uni.

And… Omedetou T&T on the #1!!!!!

19544 copies sold… quite a nice lead ahead of AbingdonBoysSch…
but I can’t tell if it’s a good number or not. This is probably mostly for the preorders?
the weekly ranking is quite formidable

GANBATTE MINNA. Climb every mountain!
Even if you have downloaded it, best of albums are the most worthwhile to collect if you are a lukewarm fan, especially if you like what you hear.
No excuses if you are a crazy fan though, shame on you if you don’t have your hands on one of the albums!!!

I should be last minute cramming for my exam tomorrow, but here I am because I can’t contain my thoughts!
Can’t believe I’m doing the review before the release date.

I really love every single one of the ‘new’ songs. LOVE is definitely the word of the day.

The releases also always end up looking better when they arrive. I really like what they’ve done with the special print. Besides, there’s nothing like the joy of ripping the delivery box open~~~~~
Every fan must at least have the GREEN one!!!

**SPOILERS HIDDEN**

Overture
Don’t know what really to make of this? It’s quite cool.
Feels like I’m speeding through a Takitsuba time warp. I think this is the general feel they’re trying to create with the DVD as well?

Daydreamer
Takes no effort to like this song at all.
Very simple and pretty melody, and of course, takitsuba harmony. Arigatou Fuji-san!
I’m so glad this will be a drama theme! So people will know that they can sing ballads too, besides furitsuke party songs. The drama looks like it appeals to a more mature crowd… and only 8 episodes, but this is the first time they’re singing something for a drama right?

Real Dx
All the jr songs sound so familiar yet so different. Especially this I think… probably because I’ve been used to hearing the song with all the screaming. The background sounds really quiet…
Chorus = Saikou

Words of Love
One of my fav takki solos! I remember when I was a new fan, I used to have ‘aishiteru wakatteru kimo no koto’ perpetually stuck in my head.
hehe, but it’s another song that I need to get used to without the screaming.

Axel
I’ve been listening to the 23-24 rip of Axel with the jazz beginning so much that this original version sounds unoriginal.
lol! I have to stop comparing all the songs to the existing recordings.
It should be interesting to put all the versions of Axel together to hear how his voice has matured.

Journey
It’s no wonder Tsu likes this song. I liked it on first listen too.
My first impression of it is… it sounds really english (the language), especially once it breaks into the chorus.

Do Me Crazy
Another of Tsu’s dance song…
Everything to love about this song, is in the title and lyrics.
Target ni Shoot! hajimete miserunda *cough*cough*
Then again, it might just be me…

Kamira Tamara
I can’t listen to this song without wanting to wave my hands in the air.
LOL! mich, do you remember how we seemed like the only ones who wanted to do the furitsuke at the concert… I must have watched the harukon dvd too many times. I can even imagine them playing air guitar to the middle parts.
The chorus of this song is saikou too!!! Yappari nothing rivals their harmony.

Koi Yo
I am in love with this song.
It is just sooooo romantic, everything that I associate with it u___u
When will we get the damecon dvd??

Kimagure JET
hehe I was surprised by the opening of the song! so cute!
The melody of this is chou kawaii, all 60s sounding. To hear chibi takki sing it is one thing, but he sounds absolutely adorable here!
hahahahaha I can totally imagine takki shuffling his legs across the dance floor doing the twist and the mashed potato. LOOOOOL

Nagare Boshi
Sounds SO DAMN GOOD.
TSU’S VOICEEEEEEEE. It’s just… ahhhhh just gotta keep playing it on repeat through the earphones.
I know I said this with his Yakusoku, and it’s kimochi warui, but I’ll say it again…
feels like he’s licking your ears. XD
It’s hard for me to listen to this song without picturing him in that blue satin shirt, with sweat streaming down his body.

Aishiteruze, T&T
LOL. So many giggles from this song!!!
They must have had fun in the recording studio. No lyrics printed in the booklet, so I’m having trouble understanding what they’re saying exactly. And who are the ones shouting!!??! haha juniors + staff-san??
Won’t post any spoilers, but the both of them were talking with super seme and sukebe voices. HAHAHAHAHA. I can’t stop laughing… my housemate probably thinks I’ve gone nuts, AGAIN.
It’s taking some time to sink in that this is not a concert recording…

Oh I forgot to mention, Tsu really looks like shinjo-san……

Was about to go to bed when I noticed that Avex changed the flash again. Hurray for Avex!!! *pats* This website is definitely a far cry from what we had before…

So anyways, this new flash deserves a post because it’s too zurui! Each time you refresh the page, the start of the flash changes like this:

(Read the rest of this entry)

Although I do not understand the context of most of it… I assume it’s some sort of clue to what the pictures are going to be like?!

IN THAT CASE……………………………
I NEED TO SEE THE OITA ONE…

Even the fukui one seems REALLY REALLY AYASHII~~~~~~

and what’s nebaneba kei… as in… sticky style?
I NEED TO SEE THIS TOO THEN u_u
will they frolic about in a pool of nattou…?
lol! okay that’s gross. It’s late, my brain is not functioning…

I assume they will keep updating the flash sites until the 17th to keep enticing us? This is more like torture… I really hope kind and loving Jap fans will post at least the juicy ones up.
Onegaishimasu m(_ _)m

(I only just realized today that some parts of my site loos off in IE… my brain cells no longer have the capacity to fix it)

Slept only at 5am last night because we went for a long karaoke session to celebrate the start of 2wk break… but I hate waking up late the next day… makes me feel like I wasted the day away. Shall just take it easy today, sort out to-do list for the coming week.

The purchase sites updated with new album covers. They’re probably preliminary covers since the title of the album is not even finalised yet? I was kind of expecting that the best-of covers were going to be without their photos on the covers, since the takitsuba clips dvd also did not, but I will be very disappointed if the title was just going to be this!

1 month and 2 days is too much to wait for this!! ahh but it’ll be tsu’s 26th birthday by then… how time flies! What’s takki going to get him this year? It’s about he just buy them both a house ^__________^

Honestly, they’re already nearly 30 so I have no idea why my friends still call me a pedophile -.- Which proves my point actually, that T&T are still so sweet and innocent. hehehe
