OMG i heard the new single too!

YOU KNOW YOU WANT KAT-TUN SINGLE

Its....wow!!!

Le Ciel~ Link: http://www.sendspace.com/file/uex64g
------------------
My Comments: THis song is beautiful. No jin....and its not like techno either. Its slow and it sounds Christmasy....i really really like it....but who is singing Jin's part (the french part is excluded....i meant the middle part when jin sings) and the instrumental is pretty too...i love the beginning of the piano....
Please you guys i KNOW theres no jin *cries* yeahh i miss him >_____< but if u critique try to think of it as just the song itself not "the song minus jin" *Sighh i miss him*

Way of Love~ Link: http://www.sendspace.com/file/ceyqbt
-------------------
My Comments: XD.....Well this is NOT a ballad lol Le Ciel was....I feel like I'm listening to a mix of arashi and SMAP..with a touch of a KAT-TUN song i really don't prefer of....ehhh Miracle/Gloria instrumental feeling somewhere?? But thats me..hahah but since its KAT-TUN i still like it...nothing TOO special

If you're missing Bokura no Machi de

---------------------------

PV Will be out soon!!!
Someone has already gotten to it...i've seen the screencaps
but i'm not a member of that chinese forum
Everything i upload will be on the DL thread
I'm uploading the instrumental there too!

Hahah yeah i don't mind you can do whatever you want
As long as you think of the song as a whole and not like some people i've run across who just blatantly say "cuz jin's not in there it doesn't sound good period"
At least thats for Le Ciel~
As for the way of love criticize all u want lol cuz its just "ok" ever however i just hope people don't trash them XD.....

anyways i know you'll give good constructive criticism anyways and won't be unfair
Lol i have my own objections

note to everyone: maybe we can also add what we like about it and not what we don't like kidding i hope u guys do like it

heres my take neh~

Who was the guy who first sang on Way of Love? And also the 3rd? Are they immitating Jin's vocals? I think its better to stick to their own voice.
If its good or not I really dont know. Its nice for a pop song but it doenst have any something that you'll say 'wow' I really like it. Koki's rap is his rap, Im glad they put a rap on the song bcoz its really poppish. The powerful sound sometimes in their songs has gone. I couldnt really say anything about the song bcoz its not as if they're playing riffs there.

Le Ciel~ Im just not into the song so I couldnt see the difference w/ or w/o Jin.

waaa..
LE CIEL was great!!! i can't believe it!!
they sang great as usual, and the songs.. whew!
but can't erase the fact that there's just something missing..
*doiing!* *entering "I Miss Jin" zone agaaainn!!*

*sigh*

SHARING TIME!
CREDITS, CREDITS TO MAKERS and MAGS XD

ryu-chan thanks for the pictures!!

LOL yaone after reading ur commentary i had to relisten to the song
since i didn't listen much to this song *not really my preference*
listen again and again to the beginning

OK people i'm really bad at some voice recognitions

Hmm wooah yeah the first person sounds like jin style

LOL but this song the beginning starts off too low for ALL of them

i Think its maru first, and maru has a REALLY really good voice in some songs he sings I thought in the beginning if there was jin replacement maru would do most of those lines >_____< holy crap that sounded like jin LOL

second is junno i think...and it was a little too low for him

third i think was koki....it didn't sound like kame to me O_O
lol koki sounding like jin? hahaha his voice isn't that good......maybe better when it was that low?
hahahahah! its a funny thought

wait...i wouldve thought ueda would sing a line
duude something is wrong with my matching up then

ahhaha i don't think/ hope that anyone is intentionally trying to sound like jin O_O???
Just like pi wasn't intentionally wanting to look like jin in the best of artist
i guess we all miss jin so much we're always thinking of him and thinking someone is trying to replace him
luckily no one isn't right?? LOL

as for KT style
They're trying new styles i guess
i mean none of these songs sound like regular KT songs
I didn't like signal much cuz that was not kt to me AHHA
gosh there is NO group with a variety like this...O_o

Kimi~chan,
nah!
You could immitate someones vocals. Almost every jrock vocalist are tryng their best to immitate Kiyoharus' voice during his indies. Kyo did it in Gauze(its not perfect anyway) album but he couldnt lately on their latest. Then loads of jrock vocalist is trying to immitate kyo bcoz its easier than Kiyoharu.

Im not saying they immitated it perfectly, its only Jin's lower tones of the 1st voice. Koki(if thats him) the part where ...something like... ka ke teru? obviously I dont know the lyrics) Ive listened to Jin hard to not know his tones. Im not talking of how they sing but just the tones (since its the easist).

Well Maru has a nice lower tone but range?? Does he has like Jin? or voice control? And Jin has the growl and scowl in his vocals. Koki has too but joining growl and scowl while singing is something thats not easy. Thats a talent that could be learned probably or inborn.

Its nice but its really poppish but then again, you know me. Im listening mostly to rock so what may sound to me might be different to you neh~

omg!
it's bee a while since i posted here and it's already 8 pages?
wow.

anyways, how is everyone?
what is the lastest KT news?

yeaah i know what you meant~
that low part! i was like O_O
maru has a pretty good range but i mean no one can go nearly as high as jin~
Not so much the third singer as the first
dude it sounds like half maru half ueda but i'm leaning towards maru still

Lol doesn't matter...if someone can kinda copy jin its like woow thats cool but if anyone could copy him entirely....thats impossible HAhaha!

Nuuh....in Le Ciel
i think its ueda?? not sure!!! sounding kinda sad/soft
guhhhhh ahhhh

LOL and the person harmonizing with kame
i think its junno! is it?
wth doesn't sound like kame is in the harmonization!

see....this is what happens when jin is gone
you think too hard XDD trying to figure whos singing his lines D:

NINKI POLL NUMBERS for single thanks to kandi @ BNS

263.40 KAT-TUN - Bokura no Machi de ("Real Face" got 209.40 -- "SIGNAL" got 188.50)
221.20 Koda Kumi - Ｃｈｅｒｒｙ　Ｇｉｒｌ／運命
117.90 EXILE - Ｅｖｅｒｙｔｈｉｎｇ
75.70 WaT - ボクラノＬｏｖｅ　Ｓｔｏｒｙ
62.90 REIRA starring YUNA ITO - Ｔｒｕｔｈ

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

KEEP IN MIND THESE HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH NUMBER THAT WILL BE SOLD BUT MORE AS WHAT RANKING THEY WILL BE....THE POLLS ARE PREDICTING THAT KAT-TUN WILL BE ONE ON THE ORICON RANKING BUT WE KINDA EXPECTED IT SHOULD BE RIGHT? CLOSEST THREAT TO THEM IS KODA KUMI FOR THAT DAY.

400 (ok probably more) RANDOM PEOPLE ARE POLLED. DUNNO HOW IT WORKS XD
ONLY TELLS POTENTIAL RANKING

EX.....KODA KUMI HAD POLL 272.20 AND SOLD 983 359 COPIES WEEK ONE
SIGNAL HAD POLL 188.50 AND SOLD 450 752 COPIES WEEK ONE
REAL FACE HAD POLL 209.40 AND SOLD 754 234 WEEK ONE

Lol don't worry just cuz BnMd has higher than Real Face doesn't mean they're gonna sell more...thats nearly impossible! I believe its just comparing it to what else is available at that time or WHO is polled...so it shouldn't mean much.

Anyways people are wondering will jin's hiatus improve or lower that number of sales

If it does improve this is what is possible:
NO its not cuz Jin is gone (ok thats ridiculous)
Many fangirls are scared that because jin is gone KT will sell a lot less
Therefore they buy like freakin 10 copies cuz they're insane.

if KT sells less then its cuz well....jins gone
As for me Cuz signal sold 450,00 copies
i want BnMd to try and maybe strive for 325-350,000 for week ONE
i mean i'm sure there are 125,000 fans that won't buy it cuz jins not there XD

but the the polls could mean nothing for sales
its possible KT could sell a lot less than expected and koda kumi selling tons more and beating them...so please i hope they get to the 300,000's area....

O____O

So much bold and colourful text. @___@"

haha I downloaded the single! 8D
Yay for that~! Haha, I just figured it out when I logged on I was like WHAT?!?!? O__o
=_= Still have to listen to it...

Hmm.. ok.. I just listened to the whole single. I just wanted to say that Way of Love is pretty cool. Way out of the style of K-T, but we all know that K-T doesn't have a style lol. Funky in a way XD
Le Ciel in the other hand, I think it's just unexceptable... They used a KAT-TUN song WITH Jin in it and now they left him out. That's just not right. It's like singing "Never Again" without Jin's voice ._."

UNEXCEPTABLE!

And wtf O_O" BnMd has a higher rate then Real Face and Signal?
That makes me worry. That actually proves that K-T can do it without Jin ._."
Well.. we all know Jin's not favoured by Johnny, maybe he can get rid of Jin know he knows KT-TUN can sell without Jin too...

I'm being paranoïd? O no, it is possible that would happen ._."

sorry, can the songs be uploaded in MU? SS is not woring for me these days? I'm not sure why.

Stop getting paranoid minna.......
I'm getting worried too!

I think Maru has the best voice (after Jin) but no matter how good they are now they were better before. I'm sure Johnny and everyone can see that. And I think when and IF Jin decides to come back it'll be ok. It HAS TO BE!!!!!

Anyone watched the PV yet? Sure is the best PV after Real Face... *sigh* I miss Jin ;_;

Bokura no Machi de PV

THANKS FOR THE LINK!!!!!!
*bows*

i haven finish the pv yet..
i only watched like 1 min of it..

BUT I'm EXCITED!!!
i dunno y...

ahhhhhhhhhhhhh

EDIT!

okayi finished it!!

it was nice!!!!!!!!
but really really different from real face and signal...


i'm not sure if its my imagination...
but during the pv when all 5 of them are standing together....
i notice that there was a space..
isit for jin????
they miss jin too much ne...

maybe i was thinking too much... sorry x)

gosh~ I nearly cried when watching that PV...why? Eveyone got that sadden face and yeah~ there was a space left between junno and kame ... wonder if that's for Jin. The PV's nice and the song, Hopes this album sells well. I gonna get my copy for sure this time.

Oh puhleeze ayumi you cannot be that biased
Just cuz jin's not there its a bad song? lol i think you should try to think of the song as a song itself than closing your mind to it....if you plainy say you don't like a song because perhaps you just don't like how its slow, or you prefer jin's harmonozation to junnos (o god junno lol) then itd make sense...but i mean just to think "the song is unnacceptable cuz they did it without jin" seems unacceptable to me too O_o or maybe i'm being crazy and i just wanna read what people really think on the song broadens my thoughts on things
Then again i'm glad you listened to it cuz there are those other fans that don't bother to even DL it cuz jins not in there ^____^;;;
Keep in mind its just a remix version and they can well do the ORIGINAL with him later....

And i think the french was entirely taken out i didn't hear the beginning of the song of course. And Koki's rap wasn't in french this time either....for the most part the song was altered >_<
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AS FOR MY EARLIER POST
DO you guys really seriously think that this single would do better than their DEBUT single? In all honesty? Their debut single with JIN in it? I say no. Once again these just depict possilbe ranking, and like i said there's nothing entirely accurate---there couldve been more KT fans polled or something since it was random. And also, like i said, fans are trying to buy more singles to make up for the loss of jin fans buying it cuz they are worried....but yea i doubt it would sell higher than real face. Lol....800,000 for the first week of this single is a pretty impossible reach. think about it ne?

Plus keep in mind there are fans of the COMPOSER
There are fans of the DRAMA that are not necessarily fans of KAT-TUN
I mean in all honesty there are no fans of DoCoMo that would buy a Docomo theme song...O-o i think
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
pv besides the fact that the audio was off the picture i managed to watch it
It was nice....different
Lonley of course
5 looks SOOO much less than 6 doesn't it?
Everyone looked gorgeous in this
So if jin were there he wouldve looked like his gorgeous self times 10

those songs above were the songs that are going to be in their upcoming single right? and debut single is real face?

i think the new songs are really good still! still support KT100% even without Jin currently, but he will be back! =)

New songs: Way of love, bokura no machi de, and the le ciel REMIX (original is in the DL thread)
Debut single WAS real face

yosh!
time-out
SHARING TIME!

CREDITS TO MAKERS AND MAGS XD

BOKURA NO MACHI DE PV IS OUT

http://www.sendspace.com/file/m2o8dg

WOOO WATCHING PV RIGHT NOW!
^__^ Just finished downloading it from lj. =_=

Anndd my computers going slow so it's taking a while to open the filee... WAIT! O_O It's started!

- I like Kame's shoes
- I also like Ueda's clothes
- PV is kinda boring, but most slow song PV's are so I can't blame them
- ... I think I've run out of comments for the PV already. =_= And I'm not even finished watching itt...
--waits for the Kame solo part--
- o_o I'm surprised I know the chorus lyrics for this. Haha
- ... I like Kame's coat as well.
- Along with Maru's tie? +_+

All in all, PV wasn't TOO bad, but not one of my favourites...

like the what?!

nah its the same one as on the site but it actually syncs together
dunno where its from its definately NOT jp television

utawara perf of bokura no machi de is out 2006.12.3

http://www.sendspace.com/file/cbfatg

*ITS LIVE
*ITS GOOD....THEY SOUNDS EXCELLENT...KAME SOUNDS GOOD
*PRETTY SET...feathers fly
*ABC DOES BACKUP DANCING...THEY LOOK GOOD LOL
*I LIKE HOW KAMES NOT IN THE MIDDLE...THO HE IS IN THE FRONT LOL
*UEDA AT THE END...SMILES AFTER DOING THE CHEESY HAND MOVE LOL
*IS IT ME OR WILL THERE BE MARUXKAME IN EVERY PERFORMANCE

lol i've uploaded so much concerning their single XD wheres katz usually shed do this

waaaaahhhhh!! i cant wait to get home and
DL this utawara perf...they are all so gorgeous!

part of it is live for sure....i think most of it should be
i know for sure kames beginning lines are live and so is some of the middle
Esp compared to the best artist perf
lol i listened to the song that much

katz i didn't understand ur question in the jin thread gomen

easy 2 point out whats live & not
am not complaining if it wasnt live
even really prof singers has a hrd tym freestyling singing
so accurate & perfect entrance, lines et al.
without really hearing themselves

hmm yeah it was easy to tell what was live and what wasn't
chorus i don't think was live cuz it was too good
but i know kame added in some voice inflections in the beginning so that mustve been live
after the bridge then for sure it was live too

Kim...oh sorry to make you confused....
i am referring to the links you have posted
but its ok...some of the mp3 are still working!!!

Wow Ryu thanks for the pics. They all look really good.
In the third pics why is Ueda wearing Black and not like
some kind of fur jacket the rest is wearing. hehhe
I like the black jacket on Ueda hhehe

I jusy finish watching the PV it was OK
KT looks really good in it.
Ueda cloths was so nice, he looks so cute in this PV
Maru's jacket was really nice on him too.
Kame scarf is so cute.
But for some reason I was thinking that Koki's hat
didn't seem to fit in with the PV. He still look good but
Koki looked a bit skinny to me.
It is so weird watching the PV without Jin in it.
For some reason I saw the gap between Kame, Junno and
Ueda liek Jin was suppose to stand there.

Utawara Perf Screencaps
credit ruby purple of LJ

lol maru kame alert !!!
and i found it so funny when maru smiled
like "omg this is so silly...these hand moves"

pwahahah! ya...look at Ueda he smirk...
i mean he maybe feel that those hand moves
are so cheesy hahah!

what a day...
PV out
single songs out...
and i have to pending my dl link for dl all of these

okay
the single songs...

bokura no machi de
-no comment-

le ciel
i love this song so much, and surprising me when listening to this xmas version
piano and ballad! that really makes me shock (not to shock, but shocking enough :lol)
it was.. sound beautiful...
so xmas with the bell and piano..
overall its a good song, even without jin soft french line or jin tinny part on the song.
but i love ueda voice here..
straight on the middle of song and sound so good...

way of love
this song definitely not my fav
it was sounds like miracle so much!
but yeah, this song is more bout TT-UN
just hear kame sing it one tinny line

im finished dl-ing utawara perform
but not seen it yet..
well, from the screencaps, i guess it will looks beautiful
same like the pv....
but just don't understand this..
why must they do hand move?
i guess it bit silly..
they can do better than that, or maybe, doing nothing (for dancing or hand move or anything else) for this song..
if they can express they emotion during the songs, its more good
cause its kinda like emotional song...

pwahahah! elf...they do the hand moves always....
like harukana....kizuna and the like....but now
their hand move is like so cheesy i mean too girly??
hahah! but its ok...i mean i love the PV...

lolz~~
thanks for the link kimchee-chan!!

anooo.. do you guys know where i could dl the utawara episodes??
starting from the utawara w/o jin up to the latest utawara??

domo arigato

^___^ Thanks Kimchee for the link!!

Lol I still have to download the Utawara link. >:I
I was going to but then I saw the SC and Koyama's new solo up~ And when I finished downloading it my internet went berserk and ARGH!

And I'm currently at school and afraid to watch ANYTHING. +___+
ARGHH~
And I haven't even listened to the new single yet! =_= And I downloaded it. >_<
Boo~! Once I get home I'm going to listen to it!! >:I

You go do that

So... I'm wondering when JpopSuki is giving us the TV-rip one. I dunno why, but I like it when they put the name of the song and artist under in the screen

Hmm.. Kame is so goddamn cool in BnMd I really like his imitation of Jin lol!

/runs away from Kamers

lol.. J/k No really.. I like his outfit

If you're not sure

Jin: black....and messy
Junno: Green and NICE lol
Ueda: Red and long
Maru:Blue...like his writing best
Koki: Purple...and he wrote ONE line....and the poop!
positive its him cuz its the same as his one liner...plus it says koki~ Aahha

Kame: Wheres kames?? lol

all i know is that its congradulatory card...not 100% sure for who but most likely 20th anniversary for magazine

I'm going to go shopping for some japanese magazines can you guys recommend some to me that have tons of JE stuff ?! espicially KT and Pi XD

Ummm well there are the typical Johnnys Magazines...which have for the most part JE guys only lol
Main ones include:

Myojo
Popolo
Duet
Wink Up
Potato

Every month its like loads of JE pics in there...the hard part is picking which ones to buy lol
I Like Myojo and Popolo the best, for they have more pics? LOL
Just look thru and see which ones are best

Also you may want to look through TV guides and Oricon Style, or other fashion magazines....
but NOT if you're looking for pics in general (lol i'm really into KT so i bought oricon style with KT on the front XD for their single). Fashion magazines have better shoots, but very very few pics....so yeah no use in that. Look for the magazines i listed above.

o_o"

[[listening to the KT single right now. @__@"]]

Way of Love: o_o Different. xDD It makes me think: "Ahh now I can't tell the differences between their voices anymore." and "Oh whose singing?! D:"
... I can tell apart Kame's voice.
Also a very... happy... song.. x3 But meh~
Le ciel: HEYY~! O__O I remember listening to this before!!
I must admit piano at the beginning = total <3
I have to think though, X-mas remix 5 version?
O_O" Uhhhhh.... much more happier than the version I listened to before. =_= But I like it!
[[totally Christmas[y]. xP I can hear the bells!! @.@]]

BUT BUTTT BBBUTTTT the hand moves in Bokura no Machi de have significant meanings.. dont they??? arent they sign languages or something so pplz with disabilities can understand the beautiful lyrics too

so i rkn they're pretty cooL

shezz---yeah i think the hand signals were for ppl with disablities too or soemthing. I say its cheesy cuz aren't most hand signals cheesy hahahah. but i mean i'll like whatever they do.....

as for le ciel cuz its xmas i'll probably not listen to it much during the year but take it out during xmas every december maybe when i'm old too....as part of just tradition O_O

hehe yeah i gotta admit its different to usual kat-tun styLe e.g. Real -face semi rock styLe.. hehe maybe because the rocker of the band left ie. Jin so now they're opting for the gentle boyband

ohayo!!!

argh...i havent listen to the le ciel remix...
damn..but i will this evening..

Kim...yeah where's Kame's message? or he is the
one who wrote the KAT-TUN lettering???
