whitedove 1,849 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Remember that ONTD post about Jpop a while ago? It mentioned Babymetal as one of the acts in decline. Well guess what? They got it wrong again. Not in decline but on the rise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitedove 1,849 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) What if there's too much Arashi topics here? I think its only fair for their fans to celebrate a bit. I'm so excited about Captain America Civil War. Hoping it'll fix my AoU disappointment (wtf bruce/nat) Exactly! Hey not to rain on anyone's parade either, but I'm a regular here and I love METAL RESISTANCE. To put it simply, that album is musically brilliant.

whitedove 1,849 Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I don't know whether to barf or laugh out loud at this article's misconception, misinformation and lacking of research about Jpop (and according to BABYMETAL fans, the author even got tons of their info wrong). Anyway, go read it if you want some amusement for today: http://www.inquisitr.com/3057208/babymetal-why-is-the-hybrid-metal-and-idol-group-the-most-popular-j-pop-act-internationally/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitedove 1,849 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 1. Diana Aggron is a random fucking person to write a song about 2. What a fucked up song "Love is my profession – Until I become a mom" WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS? I cringed so hard at those lyrics... :( And while I don't know anything about Dianna Agron except that she was on Glee, apparently she went to Yale. How is that 'empty-headed'? So not only is Akimoto sucks as a lyricist but he also can't do anything as simple as research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitedove 1,849 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 I think it's impossible for them to return to their older sound, and should they do it in one way or other, there will be people who wouldn't care as the damage is already done. Should they say goodbye (I project EXILE's -the group as we know it- life expectancy to 2020) I wish at least they go off with a bang, not a whimper. As a former EXILE (and FLOWER/Happiness) fan, I couldn't agree more with you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitedove 1,849 Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Oh, you were? As.... lesser as they may become, I hope at least that they make justice to their legacy when waving goodbye. This is one of the reasons I want them to perform in the 2020 Olympics. Yeap. 2011 was the final year of me being active in EXILE/LDH fandom. I'm not sure if you were also around at that time, but you'd totally find me in EXILE and LDH-related forums over here back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitedove 1,849 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 (edited) Just watched the latest PV previews for that "High & Low" LDH project and I'm not here for any of it. *sigh* I'm really looking forward to what Atsushi and his band releases from now on. I'm glad he doesn't bow down to conventions but instead releases music he's passionate about while still implementing contemporary sounds to his music. He's the only LDH act that still holds my interest musically. Yes. Any Short J-Drama recommendations? By short I mean nothing more than like 8 episodes. I want to watch something, but I don't have too much time to commit to something long. I have no genre preference, I'm really down for anything Try Samurai Sensei: http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Samurai_Sensei Edited June 3, 2016 by whitedove Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitedove 1,849 Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 And yeah....what's with all the drama involving Yoochun? Are the accusations actually true or are people jumping to conclusions as per usual? I was never a fan of DBSK, or idol groups in general, but he seemed like the most mellow, laid-back and docile member out of the bunch. I hope all parties get things sorted out. Four women have come to the front now. The second one made her report before any details leaked to the press, and it turns out to be eerily similar to the first victim (who was allegedly threatened by the mobs to drop the suit). As for Yoochun being the most mellow, laid-back and docile member, definitely never. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitedove 1,849 Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 Does anyone know where I can find any of Ryo Nishikido's solo songs to download? My links are dead, but you can try asking at Kanjani8's thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitedove 1,849 Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 I wish Miliyah had the same popularity as Kana She has had her chances. Kana is just more consistent with her hits, Miliyah didn't. Her releasing more mediocre materials than Kana doesn't help either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitedove 1,849 Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Guys distract me, I'm in a bad mood. My day was going great till I got back home just now, and found out my parrot (the one I loved the most and that was bonded with me) died. He gave me no signs of being sick, when I left him he was okay, which is why I'm crying my eyes out. Oh no! *hugs* I totally understand when a beloved pet died. Sorry to hear that. :( 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitedove 1,849 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 (edited) Do Arashi have at least one good song in all their discography?

whitedove 1,849 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 (edited) Damn at Japan 4x100 team winning silver. Congrats.When I saw them starting at lane 5 I immediately thought, damn they sure posted a really good time in the qualifying round to be there. Apparently they renewed Asian record in the quali and renewed it again in the final. Also saw many people (non-Japanese) questioning the identity of the anchorman Asuka Cambridge, not realizing he's half. Edit: Oops sorry for the double post!

whitedove 1,849 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Yes they beat Jamaica in the heats I was surprised. Lol yes but he really gave Bolt a run in the final stretch,but they showed overall good team work, and lot's of practice it payed off. Yeah it's the relay so anything can happen. Those with the cleanest and smoothest of baton exchange (which requires lots of practice!) will have the best advantage. Today is the 4x400. Who do you guys think will win?

whitedove 1,849 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 The meltdowns next month when EXILE block Utada with their best album and she underperforms sales-wise are going to be glorious. Well considering EXILE haven't been selling well for like 3 years now and sales have been dropping with each album... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitedove 1,849 Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 I think people are really overestimating Utada. Unless she decides to actually do some promotion, I really think people will be surprised but we'll have to wait and see. I don't think this will be an easy victory for Utada as EXILE are still somewhat of a force while she still has to prove what her current selling power is. I think they both will flop.
