Endlicheri Spring Tour 2007
Just as I thot I could have some breathing space for a few months (albeit, a lot of heartache to finally give up going to watch the harmony of december concert)........Keli does it again!
He just announced his Spring tour dates.
Feb 23rd, 24th, 25th, 27th and 28th
Mar 2nd, 3rd and 4th
Thats.......tats tats really fast leh. My bank account has not really gone up by a lot, and you know whats the worst part, its gonna be in Sendai !
Uuuuuurgh, its one of those unreachable places again!
Good :
1) not many people will want to go all the way there, so I guess tickets will not be that tough
2) Good chance for me to go jalan jalan in a new place outside of Tokyo. Last time I went was to catch Zero at Sendai Macana and I din really have anytime to go look around the place
Bad:
1) Freaking far.
2) No direct flight from Singapore, which means I need to go via Tokyo. Now I need to blow more money on the shinkansen tickets!
3)Logistics and accomodations nitemare - do I lug everything to Sendai or stopover at Tokyo? (hehe...... a little voice in me tells me that if I watch the same days as Scenic's Mucc tour, my barang barang can just very thick-skin-ly free load on her for one nite when I am in Sendai.
4) Its gonna be cold!!!!!! Yes Sendai is COLD COLD COLD!!!!!!! And although i like winter, the last experience was quite bad. My knees were frozen as I combed the streets in search of Sendai MCN in some obscure underground location!
5) I really need to rob a bank for this
6)Its gonna impact my Kinki 10th anniversary honey pot for sure.
7) I will kill myself if keli decides to start touring to other parts of Japan, coz if there is going to be sthg in a not so godforsaken place, I would drop the Sendai leg
Okay, all that said, I should still seriously think about the shows on 24th and 25th Feb. (this is related to pt 3 under Bad above....Really, damn shameless these days! Nyek nyek nyek)
ooops....almost forgot ~~~~ MERRY XMAS to all!!!!!!

无聊笑话
騎白馬的不一定就是王子,說不定是只跳蚤.
上面的笑话, 大家凑和着看吧!是在乐趣某个我经常出没的同人论坛上流传的笑话。
我看了之后,就不停的笑。。。。不停的笑!
(部落格 : 你以为放个无聊的笑话,就能弥补你长期漠视本部落格的存在的罪孽吗!
BH:恐怖!部落格都嫌弃我了!)
对了,今天TV MOBILE播映了DN II的短片。好期待!
周末3姐妹出没电影院~~~~~闲杂人等还是避开为妙了!

别哭,我最爱的人
别哭,我最爱的人,今夜我如昙花展放。
在最美的一刹那凋落,你的泪也挽不回的枯萎。
别哭,我最爱的人,可知我将不会再醒。
在最美的夜空中眨眼,我的梦是最善良的星光。
是否记得我骄傲的说,这世界我曾经来过,不要告诉我永恒是什么,我在最灿烂的瞬间毁灭。
是否记得我骄傲的说,这世界我曾经来过,不要告诉我成熟是什么,我在刚开始的瞬间结束。
中学时代很喜欢和喜欢的歌曲。
很喜欢郑智化有点破破的嗓音,很喜欢歌曲的编排,很喜欢歌词的简短确又那么令我感动。
对于歌手本身的记忆不多,只记得他称新加坡为被阉割了的男人,那时候新闻闹得很厉害。
昨天打理了一些旧的卡带,这张已经不能听了。发霉发得太厉害。不过歌曲在我心里一直很清晰,虽然已经很久没有听了。意外的,歌词记得很完整。
能感动我的歌曲,果然在记忆深处永远有一个属于它的地方。以为忘记,却原来还记忆犹新。

KINKI KIDS 学年历
明年的学年历是两人组。。。名副其实的夫妻档出击!!!
果然,10 周年是不同滴!!!!!!(我到底用了多少惊叹号了!)
J老头的抢滩计划正式揭开序幕。我干脆在他家开个定期户口算了。要不然你以为怎样,除了endli2+shock+久违了的双人版学年历, 如果不再弄个10周年全日本演唱会+10周年精选DVD/CD + 10 周年CM特集etc....那就不是J家了!
觉悟吧!众多kinki扇子姐妹们!

8人boyband ~~~lucky 8
首张单曲「禊 -MISOGI- 」听说销量好过很多唱家班!
电视节目,杂志访问(而且是主流音乐杂志如oricon!)统统能看到8位帅哥的踪影。
12月初, 8位艳男的第2张单曲和DVD同时发售~~
∞SENSE 「禊-MISOGI-」DVD
M-1. 禊-MISOGI- *特典映像付き
「Re: dear...」限定盤
M-1.Re: dear...
作詞:飯島 愛 作曲:清春 編曲:d-stilla
M-2. LEMURIA
作詞:大澤 恵子 作曲:真白 リョウ 編曲:d-stilla
特典DVD付き
反正他们打的不是唱功或音乐。。。。。这年头,只要噱头够,谁都能上排行榜!8位都是店里当红的男公关,制作班底也大有来头 --- 饭岛爱填词,清春作曲,想不卖都难啦!女人钱有时候真的蛮容易赚滴!
可看度:☆☆☆☆☆(男公关喔,而且是当红的,我怕少放一颗会被他们众多扇子踩死)
骚度: ☆☆☆☆☆(理由同上)
唱功: ☆
音乐 : ☆☆☆☆ (没有,只是纯粹对清春有信心罢了。单单清春这个logo也值回这4颗星星了。)
放眼看看J家另一组8人boyband ~~~関ジャニ∞。
可看度: ☆☆☆☆ (其实,这个组合没有特别有杀伤力的男生。只是他们整体feel很好!)
唱功: ☆ 8个当中,只有涉谷昂能唱,其他都在跑龙套。
骚度: ~~~~嗯,他们属于可爱类型,所以。。。。。
音乐 : ☆☆☆☆☆ (J家制作班底,什么时候让你失望过。打着流行演歌的旗号+大阪特有的民族色彩。。。不是我那杯茶,不过他们有好几首single我都会哼副歌部分。)
原来打着偶像梦工厂的J家和舞男俱乐部。。。。卖的东西其实都一样。他们都努力为我们这群很石化的人营造一个梦,顾客群也许有点不同,不过原理都是一样滴!
Am I jaded? Yes, I am.。所以有时候其实很乐意假手与别人帮我制造一个梦想,尤其是这个别人制造出来的梦想能用钱买到就更加方便了。

禁忌小子
都说了他们俩只是禁忌小子,也不管fan里头有小妹妹或像我这样的一只花,他们就爱在演唱会上开一些很变态很色情的笑话。。。而且要是很道地日本人才听得懂的冷笑话。
我这个单纯单细胞动物回来后查了字典才“阿~~~~~~”知道是怎样一回事。
~~mirror27日ero笑话一则~~
话说王子唱了开场的deep in you hear后的第一段mc,他忽然很老头样的嚷着说掉了很多金玉(kintama)。会场爆笑连连,我也笑到了弯下腰,不为什么,只是觉得王子在台上走来走去不停去捡掉落地上的金色亮片 (因为他的服装上钉了许多亮片)…很滑稽。
王子还不断的唠叨说~~ “这边有, 那边也有。。。。。”
台下观众大喊~~ “顶戴!”
王子竟然回答说~~~ “不行哦,明天还要用的!你那么想要我的金玉吗?
我回来翻了字典:
金玉 ~~~ 睾丸(こうがん)の俗称, testicles (<---- BH满脸黑线,绝对绝对是故意的。堂本光一你太太太恶劣了!)
~~26日endlicheri ero笑话一则~~
keli是个单细胞动物,所以他的ero笑话比较直接我还好听得懂,没有王子那个那么后知后觉。
应该是第2段黑暗中的MC.
观众嚷着 ~~~ “爱你!”
keli ~~~~“皆の愛を僕の。。。。え~~と、僕のおケシの割れ目に突き刺してもらおうかな~~~~OK?結構難しい。。。”
意思是叫大家把爱刺入他的股沟!!!
BH~~~~ 晕倒,满脸黑线,瀑布汗。绝对100%是欲求不瞒,是分开solo太久了吗?
你去找上面那个ero王子把爱刺入你的股沟!别把我们一票教徒拖下水!
王子死光我可承受不起!
接下来报告进度:
MUCC REPO – 15%
MIRROR 27/28日精髓 – 0.001%
YUKKE INTERVIEW – 10%
楽しみに~~~~~~
99回ENDLICHERI FUNKY PARTY
前千秋乐哦。。。。很好玩, 非常非常感动!
因为之前从MIRROR会场赶过来,然后SCENIC误入歧途走向别的地方~~~~~我还以为就失散了呢,还好虚惊一场~~~~。。。。所以心跳得很快,情绪一直保持在很high的状态!
开场的BLUEBERRY。。。。。KERI大人竟然绕着双腿坐在台中央!!!!!可爱指数 ~~~~~~爆表!!!!!!
今天服装还是亮晶晶的粉紫色西装,不过比起26日的头带,今天的小绒帽可爱多了。
今天屁股扭得特别厉害,我看那个左右摇摆的幅度比26日晚上大了大概45度左右~~~笑!
尾段部分,KERI大人举起他那纤纤手指提醒观众跳跃次数 ~~~哦,我快幸福的溶掉了,我对这个部分最最最没有免疫力。完完全全刚式的表现方法!看到观众很听话很整齐的一起跳。。。。刚的笑脸可爱指数~~~~~~~严重爆表!
扭扭刚一直持续到NIGHT DRIVE (对对对。。。。虽然圆滚滚,不过腰身可是软乎乎滴!)
今天吉他部分比较久,在 A HAPPY LOVE WORD感觉上比26日长一点,一直持续到灯光变暗, 他才停下来。 接着就是黑暗中的小小对话了~~~~~~与其说是对话,不如说是一票教徒在那里尖叫, 然后KELI就有点欲拒欢迎的挑逗大家 , 很可爱的说了“ありがとう” (怎么感觉好像自己在写BL中的H情节。。。。人家明明已经很久没动笔了的说!)
黑暗中看到工作人员把特制MIKE STAND摆了出来 ---没错,就是PINK的时间了。INTRO由 十川老师弹了一段keyboard,把大家很高昂的tension沉淀下来。我觉得这个部分的气氛营造得很厉害,尤其是整个会场安静下来后,特制MIKE STAND在吉他过门时忽然就亮了起来, 感觉很棒。整个会场的灯光采用偏暗的效果,而且简单朴素,很适合歌曲想表达的东西。最震撼的部分是中间吉他独奏,全场灯光暗掉,只采用strobe light 射向负责独奏的西川老师。。。。。这个部分melody的编排把tension拉到一个很高的地步,然后吉他独奏后马上引进strings的舒缓效果~~~~~~就好像紧绷后放松那种释然。最后刚飚高音的时候~~~~~厉害,太厉害了!技术方面不说(是完全没有走调,声音亮度盖过了band sound和chorus),可是那个声音里面所蕴藏的emotions。。。。。全省鸡皮疙瘩都到来了。(这个部分是我的最爱,之前的Si到现在的水槽。。。。PINK这首歌曲在每一场LIVE中都带给我不同的惊喜!)
PINK之后是成名曲街。重新编曲过,很folk 的曲风,隐隐带出了歌曲的悲伤。热泪盈眶~~~当时的我就是这幅德性。前面的两个女生哭得比我更惨。(对啦。。。这个我死爱面子滴。。。。很多时候都是自己在厕所里,蹲在马桶上哭的。。。。BH的眼泪很珍贵地,不是那么容易看到的哦。。。。汗)。演绎得很完美,真的全身神经麻得不得了。。。一直希望他就这样唱下去。唱这首的歌刚, 让我觉得他是有点不顾一切一直这样唱下去。。。。不知道为什么,心里很不安, 又有点心疼。义无反顾的刚固然光芒四射。。。可是却是令人担心的。。。我也不知道为什么?WHY?
街尾部几个清唱式的拉音掌握得很好~~~只是听后自己的鼻子有点酸酸的。。。。一点点啦。
这个部分结束后,会场又是一片黑暗, 观众报以很热烈的掌声。
KELI, TSUYOSHI, TSUYO---各式各样的叫声此起彼落。
忽然,刚以他招牌的可爱仓鼠VOICE应了一声 --- 嗯!
哗~~~~~~~不行了,全场观众(包括我)陷入疯狂休克状态!当我快要双脚发软时。。。。刚又说了一句 :我在这哦!
啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊 – 无敌小刚出现了!没事干嘛用那种软乎乎,甜腻腻的声音说话!!!(别管我了。。。。我已经完全中毒当中!)
接着是Saturday 和see you in my dreams。
再下来时每晚都有微妙变化的member介绍时间。
和之前一样,刚带了keli头套,玩了他最近常玩的effect吉他,扭阿扭的, 然后很夸张的不停玩pedal制造各式各样的distortion音响。今晚的solo比26日长号多。 到了例牌的放下吉他, 任pickup自己继续, 跳啊跳的到了后台,再快步跑到台前,作了个侧手翻~~~~~这个部分超爆笑------ keli的大头套尾巴部分因为空翻的关系跑到了前面, 所以本来很帅的侧空翻就变得有点滑稽了。Keli很可爱的用双手遮住了脸扮害羞 ----哇哈哈哈哈哈, 就绕了我吧~!(我快要举白旗投降了!)
然后就是那晚的特别fan service ~~~~~ keli因为之前的侧手翻作得不好,又跑到了台中央,再作了一次 ---这次是完美的哟!!!!!!
好了。。。以为就这样吧?还没呢。。。。今晚的重大发表----- keli又跳跳跳到了shoko-san那边,示意shoko-san 让位给他~~~~~~~接下来就是keli打鼓时间!超惊讶 ~~~~~我的嘴巴大概成 O 型了!!!!之前有看过光一打鼓(有够手忙脚乱的。。。。笑!),再后来听说rosso的时候刚也有示范打鼓,不过没机会看!今天是第1次看生刚的drum solo。虽然离厉害还有点远,不过看得出他有认真在学,并不是那种为了演唱会玩票性质而摆的架势!好萌哦。。。。。。!!!!(听说千秋乐,keli还玩了转鼓棒的特技,而且drum solo玩得更长~~~~没能看到,残念!)
玩了drums, keli又到台中央把吉他拿了起来,就退到旁边去了。这时,live的另一个高潮 –
西川进老师的印度舞时间到了!!!!!keli和两个dancer跳了超级芭辣的印度舞蹈。。。。。很刚式的舞蹈,一点都不帅气(瀑布汗),不过很好玩哟!我都笑到脚软了!
最最最最最好玩,也是这次the rainbow star3 个系列都保留的chance comes knocking超high时间紧接着而上。一听到过门音乐, 整个会场的观众都很熟悉的一边跳一边做手势!这个部分完全把整个会场气氛炒热了起来。中间ringo和chaka的双簧 (???)更是一直把大家的情绪挑到最高点!很累,脚都快不行了,可是一直这样跳啊跳的。。。。真的很满足(我是说我啦!)到了歌曲的最后部分,keli站到了高台上,由他清唱带领大家一起大合唱~~~~~真的很感动,感动度铺满全身血,快要溢出来的窒息感充斥了我整个脑袋。
keli一句很认真的 – 我真的很爱你们! ~~~~~ 脑袋里酝酿已久的某种东西,忽然就‘砰“一声,炸开了。
演唱会尾声- keli唱了6 pack和the rainbow star. 我好舍不得呢。
Encore部分,唱了新歌。(我蛮喜欢的,希望尽快能出single)。 新歌不是太强劲,反而刚用了很多很多的转音 ~~~ 很美的音色!
结束的时候,keli很认真的诉说自己18-23岁时,一直一直活得很没有自信,对很多东西都觉得有点恐惧。那个时候,就是爱和友情让自己一步一步这样走过来的。现在,已经很少哭了,因为眼泪要是高兴的时候留下来,要比不快乐的时候珍贵的多。音乐是生命中很重要的东西,所以希望一直一直坚持下去
真的真的走出来了~~~这是我脑里面唯一的想法。很安慰, 很放心。一直以来,keli 的性格就是敏感又有点内向,所以看他能够这样坦白的说这那段panic disorder时期的事情,应该是能够坦然面对了。真的长大了,他已经不是在荧幕前扮可爱的小孩了。现在是一个努力中的艺人,不断不断的努力来回报大家的爱戴。
演唱会就再keli和大家分享了自己的本音后结束。
会场外面播了vtr, 到了chance comes knocking ~~~~higher higher higher 的部分,全场的fans竟然大合唱!!!感觉很棒~真的觉得大家都是喜欢着keli的音乐而不停不停的支持者他。
看了3 个系列的keli, 我真的为这个小鬼感到骄傲。
尤其是这个系列,因为有scenic陪同,更觉充实。
It was a perfect show, really.
I could not have asked for more.

KINKI ファン発見された!
きゃ~~~~~~~きゃ~~~~~
重大発見!
昨日は久しぶりの日本語学校へ行った。同じクラスの生徒、ENDLICHERIの携帯ストラップ (売り切れ第1弾のストラップ!)を使ったのが見つけた。 超SHOCK!びっくりしました!
授業が終わったら、一緒にMRT駅へ行った時、もう一度確認してた。やっぱり、KINKIファン。。。。間違いない。とても若い見たい。。。。可愛い子ね!
私はKINKI以外のJPOPは興味があまり多くない。実は、正真正銘ROCK系ね。。。。でも、同じクラスの中、KINKIファンが見つけた。。。。嬉しかった!

10th Anniversary
Monday, October 30, 2006
69 is over, rainbow star is over.....am feeling an all time low!
just came back from an intensively fruitful trip with scenic and yuj and ah-yee.
The timing was just great. Managed to catch 2 sessions of rainbow star, 2 sessions of Kouchan Mirror solo con and 1 MUCC live.
Mucc - i dun know....how long ago was it when I last watched them? 5 yrs? 6 yrs? 7 yrs? Gee, they were still part of the 密室系folks then and ya....I was quite on about them. Somehow just lost the feeling along the way....and before I knew it the band has moved on with such tremendous pace that this time round I saw them again, I was shocked beyond words. Technically they have gone far ahead, the fan base has grown and perhaps....after this live, I may find that familiar feeling I ever once had for them again! Yosh......well, I was reading yukke's interview in detail on the plane back and suddenly felt quite teary-eyed. I just think the four boys have been through a lot and they def deserve the support they are getting now. I wished there was just more of it ( the support, I mean).
Mirror ~ the music mirrors my feelings - Its a different kind of concert, but very enjoyable anyway. And Kouchan, you are really a fucking solid dancer! And once again you prove that you cannot live one day without tsuyoshi ya !!!!!
Rainbow Star - What should I say........I had watched all 3 sessions of the rainbow star series. Each time i watched it, it fills me with so much emotions, I actually find it hard to pen down anything. The best thing I could have done as a supporter for tsuyoshi was to be able to witness the development and growth of him as part of kinki kids, then as a soloist dabbling in his own brand of music and finally as a musician trying his best to be an all-rounder. Was glad Scenic watched the last show with me. I understood exactly what she was going through when she said she was on the verge of tears. Everytime I see Endlicheri on stage, moving the entire hall of audience in his own way, with his own music.....I dunno....I actually feel so proud of him. God tell me what is happening to me!!!!!!
okayeeeee.......if i have time, really I should be writing a report soon. And, I actually feel like translating Yukke's interview......errrr...see how it goes.

我的梦
昨晚和爹娘一起去看中国残疾人艺术团的表演。
当然,之前两位老人家已经看过无数次的千手观音。
我呢,在几年前春联晚会上匆匆看了一下, 金光闪闪,不过印象不深。
后来看过邰丽华的一段访问~~~2岁时发了高烧,后来和别人玩辨声游戏,才知道有一种东西叫声音,只是我再也听不到了。那时,我才知道真正的悲伤是什么。
不知道为什么,当时很为在电视上那个清秀可人的舞者感动。后来,知道她是千手观音的领舞,就更加觉得这次在新加坡的表演是不能错过了。
这次除了千手观音,还有新节目化蝶。
还有邰丽华独舞雀之灵 - 是整晚的惊喜。
千手观音- 一个手势一次掌声还有我一整晚的感动。看着30多位聋哑人士仅靠着站在台边的指导用手打节拍,一个个亮丽整齐的造型就呈现在舞台上。以平常心对待舞台上的他们, 你也很难不被感动。因为,真的太美了。

好久没有玩得那么疯狂了!
好期待10月500的新专辑。
如果有个全台湾tour,就更好不过了!
500~~~~你是我的神啊!!!!!!
张弟弟和MC热狗也不错玩滴!
不过,新加坡观众在支持自己心爱的团之余。。。有时也应该对台上其他表演艺人一些基本的尊重。这方面,有待改善。然后就是守时方面还是很差。
当然我比较感冒的还是看摇滚live怎能不站呢????
白白浪费了前排作位~~~~~超冒火的!!!
名句之一:每个男人心中都有座断背山~~~但是每个男人家里都有只母老虎! (by MC hot dog)
名句之二:有些歌曲你认为很好,希望它流传下去,可是它偏偏没有。有些歌曲你觉得不怎样,它却流传下来了。(by 500 ~~前者指白鸽, 后者指浪人情歌)
(L:张弟弟的吉他手,好可爱哦!
R: 500哦!西装+红色吉他+亮片~~~~该怎么说呢!就是,芭辣得来还是很酷!)

Hard Candy - 4 out of 5 doctors think I am insane
Watched the relatively obscure movie yesterday. Had been wanting to watch it for a while and was actually contemplating getting the DVD coz I was almost sure it would not be screened here. Anyway, it came…..THANK GOD!
It was screened at one of the smallest halls at LIDO, and there were like less than 10 of us watching including me and my friend. Geee……..such a pity coz it is definitely one of the most intense movies I have watched this year.
Story:
14-yr old Hayley meets 32-yr old Jeff over internet and soon arrange to meet up at the local joint Nighthawks. Jeff lures Hayley to his home in a remote location. As it turns out, Jeff is a pedophile. Well, the run of the mill type of plot stops here. Hayley drugs Jeff, ties him up, castrates him and forces Jeffrey to hang himself in twisted plot of events.
The entire movie has like……5 actors/actresses. Besides Ellen Page (who plays Hayley) and Patrick Wilson (Jeff), the remaining 3 actors/actress have a total air time of about 10 minutes cumulatively. 90% of the movie was shot in Jeff’s home – living room, bathroom, kitchen, and bedroom. There was like 2-3 costume changes for Hayley and none for Jeff (well, if you consider stripping down a costume change, maybe 2)
Cinematography has a really raw feel to it, but I thought this brought out the creepy and sinister mood of the entire movie, especially the scenes Hayley went berserk.
The plot itself is simple and frankly there were some loopholes here and there, but the solid performance by Ellen Page more than made up for any shortfalls. If there is one single compelling reason to watch this movie, it must be Ellen Page. The movie’s 2-man theatrical play between Ellen Page and Patrick Wilson is probably one of the most intriguing, gripping and brutal for a long time to come. Trust me – Ellen Page is in the room!
Hard Candy is a rare movie and despite the many loopholes in the plot, just watching the 2 main characters parry with each other is simply tantalizing. A feeling of creepiness enveloped me throughout the movie. Who do I root for in the end? Jeff the pedophile or Hayley the self- righteous teenager? Its fascinating coz at one point you will be moved to sympathize with Jeff - no man should have to be put through this type of ordeal. Although no blood or knives are actually shown, the castration scene will almost be unwatchable to some, I suppose. And yet, you want Hayley to get away with all she has done, you want her to continue her life as if nothing has happened. The movie's ability to evoke these type of mixed emotions in the audience gives it a strange power. There are no good guys or bad guys anymore. No evil versus goodness. Its fascinating.
Easily missed out among all the big budget block busters – this is a real gem. And Ellen Page – look out for her!

劇場版 ~~遙かなる時空の中で 舞一夜~~
想看看我最喜欢的阴阳师泰明和眼镜佬鹰通和电视上的有什么不同。
公式网页有预告片看,好像蛮不错的。
声优方面保留了动画版的班底,有我最爱的石田彰,关智一和樱井孝宏。
期待期待---非常期待!
我超喜欢的鹰通~~~~我对漫画中戴眼镜的角色一向没什么抗拒力!不过鹰通真的是那种完美圣人型滴!人见人爱!
还有就是没什么表情的泰明咯!冰山一座。。。不过他出招的时候很酷就对了(我是肤浅的!)
在新加坡上演的机会根本属于零~~~~难道又要我花钱买DVD!!!
PS:新加坡41岁生日快乐!

嘉美鸡!
我爹那天才跟我埋怨了今年书展变相成了一对娱乐圈所谓才女发表新书的招待会。。。然后又看了yuj的提议,对呢对呢,明年就在西洋菜街十字路口来个书展吧。应该很有看头!
又说嘉美鸡,听说特别健康,价钱不菲。是鸡中LV。
我爹娘在超市买了只回来,评语 --- 很像菜园鸡。
下次到香港,我也得试试这名牌鸡了。

好忙哦!!!!!!!
今天起爲期3天的會議,還搞到要到鄰國去。。。我抽!
完全能體會yuj之前說的,一個人住,在出國之前就會做很多奇怪的事情。
昨晚整理了小背包,接著把殘存的麵包吃了,換洗床單,煮好一壺開水,幹了的衣服都收起來 - 該燙的也都燙好,冰箱里快結冰的番茄只好丟掉,快過期的牛奶全喝了, 碗碟什麽的都收到櫃子里。結果整個晚上頂著個灌滿牛奶的大肚腩,。。。難受!
星期4回來, 星期5就朝聖。。。真的什麽都亂在一起了!
不過很快又能和小公主見面了。。。。想死我了!
對了。。。。要不要去看death note。。。。星期六下午場還是什麽的!喵~~~~~人家想看啦!

还是说王的男人
以为看电影之前既然把60-70%片断看了,那真正看电影时就少了那种toko doki 初恋的感觉。谁知道还是蒙得厉害。
戏末那段长生和孔吉在高空绳索上表演的戏中戏,堪称整部片子的精髓所在。
长生 :开始演戏后,和另一个戏子玩得很快乐,为了这份快乐我瞎了眼。 来到湘阳城后我被看戏的人投来的铜板蒙蔽了双眼(这是意义上的瞎了眼),进了宫,我更瞎了,有个混蛋来偷走他的心我也看不到!
孔吉 :你是混蛋!瞎子有那么好吗?
长生:很好!非常好啊!
孔吉:你是笨蛋吗?明明看不到还跑到上面去!(这时的长生已经被燕山君弄瞎了眼睛)。你马上给我下来!
长生: 无礼的家伙!我是这宫中的王!
孔吉:是啊!我一直想见王一面,看到后就明白了!
为什么会觉得这一幕绳索上的戏中戏是全片精髓?
片名王的男人— 王指的是燕山君还是长生?
王就是王。
戏外有个燕山君。戏里有个扮演王的长生。
长生说了有个混蛋来偷了孔吉的心。 孔吉回骂长生是混蛋 ----肯定了他的心是被混蛋长生偷了。长生说自己是戏里的王, 孔吉也再次肯定了长生就是王-------我一直想见王一面。
王的男人 ---- 有很多层面的意义。不单只是燕山君。
戏外燕山君是王,戏里长生是王。两个性格和社会阶级极端的王。燕山君一直摆脱不了母亲的阴影,活得痛苦,还不如低下戏子长生洒脱。
孔吉始终是个戏子。他选择了和自己心里的王留在戏里面。
最后一幕孔吉和长生的对手戏,经典!
PS:本地上映好像有被剪辑过。很多之前看过的镜头,很神奇的没有了。

王的男人
看之前心里有点小兴奋。
东方断背山?连男人都怜惜的男人?广告文字也太哪个了吧!!!!
看完片子,心里面竟然有酸酸的感觉。
特此澄清一下: (1)这不是同志电影 (2)这不是爱情电影
电影刻画了种种的人性,描写了种种大时代下的无奈。
电影拍得很含蓄,很多场面都是轻轻带过。
戏中戏故意拍得粗俗,几场街边卖艺和宫宴上的大戏开了王宫里所有人的玩笑,见证了一幕又一幕的血染悲剧。
各式各样的情。各式各样的欲望。君臣,兄弟,母子,夫妻。。。。纠缠在一起,结果都是闹剧收场。
王对孔吉有一份相遇相知的感激,只是后来感情的出发点变得有点奇怪了。 红颜都福薄。万年不变呢!
在绳子上耍伎,一越而上的那一刻,真真无拘无束,可是也就只有那一刻的小小缝隙,又落脚了,又回到了令人心惊胆条的绳子上,稍有差池,万劫不复。
PS:口痕再补多一句- 李准基一出场,我就想找豆腐来撞了。。。。。明明是个小男生的说,怎么就长得那么清秀!

BH Jelly Making Tips
Just done a lemon flavoured one with Hosen brand canned cocktail.
Discovery tonite :
1) Substitute cold water with ice. It quickens the process much faster and you achieve the semi-solid state pretty quickly for you to dump your cocktail in to create a scattered effect.
(dunno what i mean-----??? Am quite lousy at explaining...erm, you dissolve the crystals in 1 cup of hot water as per instructions. By right the second cup of water is supposed to be cold, but you substitue it with ice cubes instead. Coz the first cup is hot, when you add in the ice cubes, it cools down very quickly as the cubes melt....Errrr, get it?)
2) Do not do the "cocktail bits" test to see if the bits float. Use a spoon to test how far the jelly mixture has jelly-fied (??). Visually, if you drag the spoon in the mixture, it should leave a tail in the mixture. Roughly the consistency is about that of the raw egg white. The time I took was about 2h15min before the mixture achieved the correct consistency
3) To get a really scattered effect with the cocktail bits, after adding it in, STIR REALLY HARD! (cos the bits tend to float and lump together)
Yeah yeah....am gonna have lemon jelly with cocktail tomorrow.
Will try a new recipe on Saturday nite- substitute water with flavoured ice tea when dissolving the crystals.
Yuj - 过来吃啦。。。。或一起做果冻!真的很好玩的说。不过如果有人以为我变贤妻良母就大错特错了。基本上,我只是为了好玩,也不知道热度会持续多久。。。笑!

Jelly Making Weekend ^O^
(Scenic - I have almost perfected it and if the fishbone is still there, I will make a huge bowl of jelly for you next week. What flavour you wan??)
BH's obsession with jelly started on ....ta---da-----!!!!
Friday nite :
started with strawberry flavour and just followed the directions on the package. Jelly turned out just as expected, except a bit tasteless. Think I added to much water, but I was worried the crystals would not dissolve and I was stirring like mad. So much for kiasu-ism.....will add in lesser water the next time. And I was lazy to wash the molds, so I let the entire pack set in one huge soup bowl.
After putting it into the fridge, I was basically OBSESSED with the jelly bowl. Every commercial break, I would open the fridge and poke my fingers into it to see if the jelly has set. No luck and I went to bed unsatisfied.
The jelly set by the next morning and I dug a huge metal spoon ( which I nicked on my last JAL flight) into the bowl. Texture was okay except it was a bit on the soft side ( I like my jelly springy!!!!! like Doing....doing......) and a bit bland. Other than that, was quite happy with myself.
Saturday
Fixated with how fruit bits could be added into jelly.
Major question was HOW DO THE FRUIT BITS STAY SCATTERED THROUGHOUT THE JELLY AND NOT SINK TO THE BOTTOM?????
Asked scenic the same question on the MRT........
We both pondered ..... and pondered.....
--layering ?? - Nah, my jelly dessert will look like kueh lapis
--sthg to do with density?? -- Ummm, probably, I need to try this out. But the fruit bits feel like they would sink to the bottom of the mold.....really need to experiment on this one.
Bought 2 more packs of TORTALLY jelly mix ( Lime and Strawberry <---again!) and 1 can of fruit cocktail before hitting home. Played with the lime flavour jelly pack before going to bed. Am getting quite good at it......mix the crystals in hot water till everything is dissolved, then add cold water. Simple! Next comes the density test - dropped in one pear bit.....it SANK right to the bottom of the mold. Tried again with one peach bit.....SANK as well. Almost wanted to just pour the entire can in and let all the fruit bits sink. ( That way, when I inverted the mold the next day, all the fruit bits would at least be at the top??)
Totaly obsessed with removal of the jelly from the mold with the jelly intact. It was almost impossible!!!!! Jelly is not agar agar! It sticks to the bloody mold!!!!!!!!!
Made a big mess out of it but found out later from helpful mother that I should have just run hot water on the outside of the mold to dislodge the jelly layer next to the mold. This should release the entire jelly intact.
Okay, will try again this coming weekend. This time will play with fruit juices instead of cold water to make the jelly mix. And also, try and get the entire jelly out of the mold intact.
Qn : whats the diff between Jelly and jello?
SVOLOCHI
背景 : 1943年,俄國
導演: aleksandr atanesyan(聽説是俄國殿堂級導演)
故事很簡單。話説俄軍爲了制止德軍特種部隊eidelveis而特別訓練了一批由14-15歲孩童組成的特工部隊。任務完成後,全隊都會被滅口。
當然我寫這篇東西, 不是爲了探討戰爭,政治或什麽道德問題,只是很想說一些東西。如果,因爲有人看了我的這個post而決定去看這部片子,那我就高興了。
被選中的孩子們都是貧窮家的孩子,平時在街頭流浪。軍方會選中他們, 因爲就這種人, 死了也沒人理, 況且為軍隊效勞也可算是這群底下層人民為國家最後的貢獻了。
有幾幕畫面令我印象深刻。
黨軍隊教官第1次看到這群被選中的孩子時, 臉上竟然浮現一種類似溺愛的神情。片子到後來, 我才發現,那個表情更像是同情。
然後在訓練當中,孩子慢慢的一個接一個的死亡。爬山訓練時,不小心墜死。靜靜的,人數變得越來越少。第一個孩童那毫無重量的身體往下跌,死亡原來也可以是那麽簡單。另一個選擇逃走,屍體被扛了回來。其他的孩子只是毫無意識的看了一下屍體。孩子堆當中的孩子王爲了報復同伴,破壞了牠的降落傘。最後同伴死了。孩子王也被處分,活埋了。即使他最後如何不想死,等待他的也只有死亡了。
這群孩子,每一個都不想死,每一個都渴望活下去。
時機成熟,第1批孩童被送上戰場。
Cot是領隊,一共有8 個人。
Cot和tiapa接到秘密指令,要他們比其他隊員早10秒跳傘。
他們安全降落後才發現原來軍隊利用了晚10秒鐘降落的其餘6個同伴的性命掩護他們。
安全到達敵營,cot 和tiapa充滿了恐懼,害怕。原來,到了生死關頭,人類真的脆弱,我們真的會害怕的。他們努力擦掉留下的眼淚,不斷向前移動。Cot和tiapa成功炸毀了德軍基地,之後又開始了另一輪的逃往。
這時在軍地的教官也已經洗好了孩子的衣服, 等待他們執行任務,安全歸來後有乾淨的衣服換洗。可是他們比誰都清楚,這些孩子不會回來了。 (這個畫面是我覺得震撼力最強的。。。比之前那一幕一幕的death face更震撼。)
成功逃出來的cot和tiapa躺在雪地上歡呼,卻不小心踩到地雷。Cot被炸掉一隻手臂,後來傷口發炎,身體開始發燒。Tiapa跑下山找支援時又碰到敵軍。Tiapa躲在角落,忽然聽到身後傳來了雪崩的聲音,tiapa知道他永遠也見不到好友cot了。
鏡頭接換到2005年, 山上一兩私家車正在行社,後座的一位老人這30年一直持續的在山上尋找他的同伴。
兩人又重逢了,已經是白髮蒼蒼,同樣的地方,同樣的風景。。。。
年老的cot和tiapa,年少的cot 和tiapa身影交疊在一起。
只要活著,沒什麽不可能的。
全片結束。
最近看的片子,這部是比較喜歡的,歐血推薦。

Lucify
The one major major 'taboo' thing they did was not tuning the guitars, can't really remember which session, but oh boy was the guitar completely out of tune! This type of mistake....how to forgive and let live? Its one of the most taboo type of things on my list. I can live with bad vocalists, vocalists who forget lyrics....but, but......not ensuring that your guitar is properly tuned just before a major perf is like....DUH......!!!!
Anyway, this blog entry is not about sliming them. Am still one of their armchair supporters ( literally, coz I have not done the phone in thing)....and anyway the post today is about their perf last nite. That the guitar solo was from X-Japan's DAHLIA!!!!! Oh yes...i could not have been wrong!!!!!!!
How how how? Anyone caught it or not! I almost ran and kissed the TV eh!

里見八犬伝 (2006)
Finished the 2 disc straight without any breaks. Irresistable urge to blog about it coz lately in a Japanese period drama phase. I luv warlords, warriors and wars!!!!
Extremely engaging, lots of eye candy and good acting by veteran actors/actresses. Plenty of cameo appearances by familiar faces. Although I would say some of the blue screen techniques need improving, especially, the fighting scenes between Shino and Kenpachi on the rooftop….…it borders on corniness! The little technicalities aside, this is one cool piece of work. It does a neat job condensing the original 106-volume novel into a 2 hr plus TV special.
Based largely on the famous novel by 曲亭馬琴, story pans out against the backdrop of feudal wars within the many clans and warlords in old Japan. Satomi defeated and killed another warlord Yamashita. Yamashita’s wife Tamazusa (some black witch) laid a cursed on the Satomi clan before she was beheaded – [All of Satomi’s descendents shall become animals.] The curse came true and soon enough, the princess of Satomi clan, Fusehime becomes pregnant by virgin birth. Tamazusa’s spirit appeared in front of Fusehime, leering at her that the 8 dog spirits representing 8 evils will be reincarnated through her. To stop Tamazusa’s atrocities, Fusehime kills herself. At this point, Fusehime’s Buddhist beads, which she wears around her neck, breaks free, and the main 8 beads disappear. At the same time, 8 young men are born within the Kanto area, each in possession of one Buddhist bead. These 8 men subsequently becomes Hakkenshi – 八犬士
Story follows金碗大輔孝徳 (ex-warrior working for Satomi and yes, he has something for Fusehime) as he searches for all 8 warriors. Upon gathering all 8 of them, the Satomi clan regains its former glory and power. Of course, Tamazusa’s restless spirit wrecks havoc in between……. I mean, this is a show where the main theme is good versus evil, so how can we do without our Tamazusa, who symbolizes pure black evil herself.
This 2006 remake boasts a solid cast of well know veterans and young teenyboppers as well ( whom, I have to say actually do quite a credible job):
犬塚信乃戌孝 - 滝沢秀明
犬川荘助義任 - 佐藤隆太
犬山道節忠與 - 小澤征悦
犬飼現八信道 - 押尾学
犬田小文吾悌順 - 照英
犬坂毛野胤智 - 山田優
犬村大角礼儀 - 勝地涼
犬江親兵衛仁 - 山下翔央
大法師(金碗大輔孝徳) - 渡部篤郎
玉梓・妙椿 - 菅野美穂
伏姫 - 仲間由紀恵
~~~~Trivia - 里見八犬伝~~~~
*This is the longest novel ever written – 106 volumes.
*曲亭馬琴 was the first chap to make a fulltime career out of writing.
*The 8 beads each carry a different character - 信義忠信悌智礼仁, representing the 8 virtues of Confucianism. The eight warriors’ names individually bear the characters represented by the beads they possess.
*A typical length of Buddhist beads contains 108 beads. In the story, the 8 main beads are the magical beads. The rest of the 100 beads are smaller in size.
*犬坂毛野胤智 – a typical bishounen who cross dresses as a pretty dancer. 山田優does a neat job in the drama. 虽然我从来不觉得、这个小妹妹漂亮, 不过眉宇间的一股英气, 配合打斗场面时的矫健身手。。。。很赞!
*The drama…well because it’s a 2 hrs plus work, actually misses out on a lot of details, some of which I am particularly crazy about.
1) Original novel was that Satomi actually told his guard dog that if it could kill Anzai, he will marry Fusehime to the dog.
2) The letters of the 8 beads transform into 如是畜生发菩提心when Fusehime and Dog wed
3) There is actually one more Buddhist bead – Mikaso which also splits into 8 beads (I think it spells out one phrase in 大悲咒。)
*犬江親兵衛仁 is what we typically call a 風使い i.e. he can summon and control the forces of the wind. He was the last to be discovered in the drama coz the bead was clasped tightly in his left hand which had remained closed since birth. 犬山道節忠is a火使い, so the combined elements of wind and fire make the pair quite tok-kong lor. The effects for the wind portion are better handled in the series though. The fire ones are quite cartoon.
~~~~End of Trivia~~~~
Enuf about trivia or I will end up telling the whole damn thing ( err, but this story is really a well-known Japanese classic, nothing to hide I suppose). Drum rolls….now presenting the BH awards :
Most tok-kong sword : 村雨丸, sword used by 犬塚信乃戌孝…. each time the owner uses it to kill, water gushes out from the sword. The lofty explanation is that the water cleanses away the bloodstains on the sword…….to me…..it’s a wonderful display of a peeing sword.
My favorite actor/actress: 菅野美穂 who plays the screwed up Tamazusa. Very solid performance. The look of hatred buried in her eyes …..lew, scary. Most outstanding of the lot!
My favorite八犬士 – ehmmmmm, this one is a close fight between 犬坂毛野胤智and 犬江親兵衛仁……..but little親兵衛仁wins la! Firstly, young boy ma! Secondly, cute ma. Thirdly, got watery eyes ma!. Fourthly, the hairstyle cooooool eh. Fifthly (wa, is this how you spell it?), how can I bring myself not to like a little boy that is so blindly loyal to 金碗大輔孝徳….each time he runs after the old man…aiyoh, my heart melts leh. Well, 智is cool too….uurgh, and I like cross-dressers. Can I have 2 favorites then?
My favorite scene – when 犬江親兵衛仁’s fist finally opens up to reveal the last missing bead and everyone realizes that this boy is the last 八犬士, 犬江親兵衛仁goes on to summon the powers of the wind together with 犬山道節忠’sfire to destroy Tamazusa’s black warriors. This scene takes place near the sea and effects are quite cool.
Wallpaper Award - 仲間由紀恵’s 伏姫………lets just say, what was that? Oh…part of the waterfall scenery ya! Sorry sorry, eye blur after nonstop watching of TV.
Hurry hurry, go grab a copy of the DVD!

Red Hot Chili Peppers
By The Way was like released 4 years back. I personally din really warm up to this album as much as their previous works. But the recent release Stadium Arcadium ...damn shiok. Luckily the band din go as planned to release this as part of a trilogy of albums spaced 6 months apart. Nah....knowing these folks, 6 years apart might be a better gauge.
Interestingly the single Dani California , well its about Dani, the same characte referred to in the other RHCP single By The Way and my fav Californication. Funny part is, Dani California will be the theme song of the movie remake of Death Note. (dunno why, wanna laugh when I heard that.....just wierd. )....hail the big warner machinery at work. Wonder if the RHCP folks know what they are getting into. Nothing against the movie....but, funny lor. ( digress abit, the trailers for the movie......nyek nyek nyek! Each time i see yagami light, i cannot stop laughing)
Kind of agree with what Flea said about this new album : "If you dun like this record, you dun like RHCP. Period." ~~~~~Not that I seriously think this is one of RHCP's best efforts, but its 100% RHCP....and I have been starving for good ol funk rock for quite a while.
Grab your copy....must support all this ah peks who are still giving the young punks a run for their rock $$. And this is one of the rare efforts by the band whereby the lineup has remained unchanged for the past 3 releases...Yip Yip Hurray!
The current line up include Kiedis, Flea, John Frus-sthg ( never can quite remember how to spell his last name) and Chad Smith.
My fav RHCP album/single ranking remains unchanged despite the commendable effort by RHCP in Stadium Arcadium
#1. Blood Sugar Sex Magik (highly highly highly recommended, despite selling only about 12 million w/w compared to californication's 15 million sales.)
#2. Mother's Milk (one of their earlier releases, dunno why sales were miserable at less than 3 million sold w/w. )
#3. Californication

ただいま~~~~~~
久しぶりのPOSTです。
最近、気持ちがちょっと複雑しすぎだから、言いたい事が沢山でも、うまく言えない。
先ず、4月10日のライブ参加できって、最高だ。
さつきもう一度会えた、本当に楽しかった。
神密人と一緒に美味しいラメンを食べたり、ホテルでいろいろな話を喋たり。。。。とても愉快な旅ね!
シンガポールへ帰って来た、2-3週間が経つ。ライブ感想レポートの完成度は0.5%。。。涙。最近、雑誌のケリちゃんのライブレポートを読んで、「それは夢じゃないよ!本当にケリちゃんの誕生日ライブを出席した!」と分かりました。
夢みたいな4月もうすぐ終りました。 本当にありえない奇跡が沢山あった4月ですね。 今まで信じられない。。。。
今、仕事はちょっと忙しかった。ライブ感想レポートの完成は全然。。。笑。。。だめ。会社の特別計画を参加して、正直、私はこの計画を参加した後で、ずっと悩んでいます。勿論、会社は自分の立場もある。。。でも、私はちょっと不安だ。計画が実施すると、普通の社員はあまり良くない影響がいますね。
やっぱり、私は悪い子だ。許してくれる。
今日のPOSTは重すぎけど、私の本音だけ、心配しないで。

Anugerah Planet Muzik di Singapura
If you ask me really, I have been listening to lesser and lesser jrock, vrock and mandarin pop/rock these days...dunno why, except for a few bands/solo artist i regularly follow (and that for a matter of fact, is diminishing as well), the new comers on the scene just somehow dun quite make it.
Neeways, currently on an Indon rock binge. Attended the Anugerah event to catch Peter Pan. Their first album was great....then like all rockers who made it big suddenly, the lead singer got into some trouble with a girl. (Sex+rock+drugs ....hehe, perfect combi ya!). Their second album was not up to expectations, but I still wanted to catch Peter Pan live so I thot I would just pop by the event.
Like I said, live performances make or break a band. In this case, it was a good live, although a bit short. They clinched the Most Popular Group award. I think next year, Radja should be the ones getting this award though. Not half as good looking as the members of Peter Pan, but Radja is good old solid rock. Lead singer is every band's dream vocalist. Uuurgh, would love to watch them live. Caught them on DVD during their open air live in Indonesia and the crowd was fanatic. Looks fun! Oh...there's Cokelat too. This was the band that introduced me to the world of Indon rock and it features a rare female vocalist.
Other acts I would really luv to catch in Singapore - Search ( I just bought their DVD live and was completely blown away. These old men really know their stuff well!), Melly Coleslaw (<--- is that how you spell her last name. The last time I saw her was on Suria, singing a duet with Kris? Was it Kris? Not sure...but I was star struck! Solid vocals and very very versatile in terms of style. From jazz to ballad to heavy rock...she has done it all. Plus she also produces most of her own albums. Lately wrote a couple of hits for Agnes Monica, mostly diva type ballads tailored to showcase Monica's strong vocals....but I still prefer wierd ol Melly!)
I hope we do this event every year and ....all the nominees should come......really!

從朋友給的mail直接貼過來, 所以有點怪 (基本上,朋友現在有點神志不清當中,除了拼了老命的喊很棒,好像已經壞掉了的狀態。。。。今晚還去看的說) 不過我真的沒時間從新打了。
特別會場的飲食店有三角形endli-pan麵包出售。每天限定200個。昨天估計還沒到12點就品切了。 特別注意blueberry口味噢!
地鐵一片紫海,全都貼了ENDLICHAN的海報。
會場廁所也貼了ENDLICHAN的三角型標誌,男廁是藍色的三角形,女廁是紅色的三角形。
還有,會場會播放演唱會製作過程的video。。。記得早點去看!
場地很小,比巨蛋的arena還小,可以很清楚的看到小剛。坐在A-C區簡直好像和他私人對話。

218 回 – 激萌!
。。。。。
。。。
。。
。
周末租了傳説中的218回。
撇開私心不說, 撇開被渲染得很厲害的官方王道不說,這一集的連載真的讓我見識到許老師的深厚功力。 短短幾格,帶出了兩位人物性格重點 (之前都覺得不二的性格很難捉摸),也解釋了許多許多出現在不二身上有點矛盾的行爲。
下雨天,不二子初次和龍馬正式在球場上對弈。雖然同屬一隊,不過兩人正面交鋒的機會在這之前好像是零,練習對打也好像沒有。天才和主角之間的實力到底相差多遠,一直都是一個迷。龍馬看穿竅門,破了不二子的ヒグマ落とし、兩方都打得難分難捨,最後因爲雨下得太大,沒有辦法只好暫停。
然後, 重點來了。
漫畫背景切換到休息室。手塚和不二子出現了以下一段對談 (我覺得這個部分是關鍵所在啦。。。精髓噢!)
不二 「ねえ手塚…越前と試合した時君もこうだった?」
手塚 「知っていたのか?」
不二 「なんとなく…」
手塚 「今の越前との試合…何故本気で勝ちに行かなかった?」
漫畫里,不二子瞬間有點被看穿的恐慌。
每一個看到不二子和龍馬比試的人都認爲真正的不二子蘇醒了,他們都以爲不二子認真了,只有不二子本身和部長知道,這場比試下來,不二子還是沒有把潛在的能力完全發揮出來。嗯,平時都用微笑掩飾一切的天才,竟然被部長看得如此清楚,我想任誰在那一瞬間都會恐慌吧。
手塚 「乾が言ってた…お前のデータは取らせて貰えないと。本当のお前は何処にある?」
3年來,也只有部長看得出不二子從來沒有很認真(這樣說好像有點對不起不二子。。。不過,我覺得這個部分部長沒有看錯。 天才不二子一向來都是配合著對手的節奏打球,對勝敗反而少了一份執著。所以不二子的打球資料根本很難收集到100%。換句話説,如果不二子只需要用20%的力量就能贏,他絕對不會用到21%,而因爲不二子是天才,所以根本能把他逼到認真起來的對手是不存在的。 部長和死小孩除外,因爲一個是青學鬼才一個是主角。)
部長那句 – 真正的你到底在哪裏??到底這一句是在對不二子說, 還是在質疑自己對不二子的了解。 我的想法是部長在煩躁,因爲他不知道真正的不二子在那裏。也許不二子本身也不知道真正的自己到底在哪裏?
不二 「うん…手塚、どうやらボクは勝敗に執着出来ないみたいなんだ…」
手塚 「不二…………」
不二 「相手の力を限界まで引き出してスリルを楽しみたい…だけなのかな僕は君こそどうなの?」
手塚 「どういう意味だ?何としても勝つ!今は全国制覇する事しか頭にない!」
這個部分很傷感。。。感覺上有點類似天才的悲劇一樣。不二子清楚看到了自己和部長性格上的差異,有點懊惱吧。原來自己和部長之間的差距那麽大。 部長是那種站在球場上,無論對面是誰,都想把他打敗的性格。不二子卻沉醉在比賽過程中把對手的極限引發出來,也許全國君冠軍在不二子眼中根本不算什麽。而一直以來, 不二子也像一個旁觀者,看球場上的隊友努力爭取勝利,自己卻一副無欲無求的樣子。勝如何?輸了又如何?不二子在218之前給我的感覺就是如此。
難道我只能這樣了嗎?--- 不二子反問部長。
這句話是重點中的重點。從漫畫開始,不二子無論學業或在球場上和各種類型的對手對打, 不二子從來從來從來就不用依靠別人幫忙。擁有天才的腦袋,冷靜的思考能力,不二子幾乎是所有問題都能自己解決。別人眼中的不二子甚至是遇到難題,連眉頭也不會皺一下的。可是這樣出色的不二子竟然對部長發出類似求救的訊號。只有在他最信任的人面前,不二子才會這樣的吧。
這幾小格的休息室連載, 我始終覺得不二子是很傷感的。小小的幾格漫畫, 就把兩人性格上的重點刻畫得淋漓盡致。厲害叻!
讀完218,我更加肯定不二子對於網球根本沒有什麽牽挂。唯一把他和網球牽連在一起的是頑石般的部長,那個看透自己的撲克臉。因爲自己是天才, 可能周圍的人都趨之若鶩,不二子應該是寂寞的。忽然有個部長能如此看透自己,不二子應該是懷著感恩和相知的心情留在青學繼續他的網球生涯。有了218, 後來不二子在漫畫里的表現就完全能解釋了。 有人說不二子性格上的轉變最明顯是在對切原那場賽事。那種咬緊牙根,被球打到暫時失明還堅持拿下那一局的天才,根本和不二子原本吊兒郎當無疼無養的性格相差太遠了。(不二子曾經因爲搭檔受傷而放棄整盤doubles!)。當然有人説是爲了替橘爭回一口氣, 不過不二子在被打到腹部倒下去之後差點就起不來,一句 --- 這局輸了,立海大就會贏!!!! 不二子就忽然變成了殺人熊,後來情緒被切原挑起,更是勢如破竹。那句話太重要了,是讓不二子起死回生的一句話。青學一定要贏, 不對,在不二子的心裏應該是手塚的青學一定要贏。因爲手塚已經不在了,所以更不可以失信於他。(換過來説,如果手塚的理想不是帶領青學邁向全國冠軍,不二子對於青學的勝敗可能就沒那麽執著了。青學哦。。。。重點還是 - 有手塚的青學。)
臺面上沒什麽交際的青學鬼才和天才,平時習慣性的並排站在場外看別人打球,多說一句也沒有,卻原來私邸下也可以相知甚深。
手塚的夢想不二子了解。後來手塚離開了球隊那段時間,雖然有大石作代理部長,不過不二子在那一段時間所作所爲,更像部長吧。代表青學探望橘, 回應切原的挑釁,和死小孩一起坐鎮穩守青學單打賽事。爲了什麽那麽拼命?太不像不二子了。一向自我的不二子只爲了幫部長抓住夢想, 竟然可以改變到這個地步。本來不相信, 不過看到218回連載,心中就覺得合情合理了。
最後還是說回218。離開休息室之前,不二子對部長冒出了一句「支障が出るのならボクを…レギュラーから外してくれ」 (如果成爲障礙,請把我從正規球員名單除掉!)
一方面可以看出不二子對別人視如生命的參賽資格的漠視,也感受到不二子内心的細膩和觀察入微。他知道自己求勝心不強,不想當部長和青學的絆腳石,因爲部長心里想的只有全國冠軍,所以不二子選擇抽身離開。 (部長當然沒放不二子跑啦!不二子在青學的單打2號位置在此之後根本沒有受到影響。)
這樣一個不二子,很難聯想到黑不二頭上去。不二子。。。。我錯了, 以前一直喊你黑不二!原諒我!我以後都只會叫你不二子了。。。218。。。。。好萌噢!
萌萌萌萌萌萌萌萌萌萌萌萌萌萌萌~~~~~!!!!

音楽と人
重点部分翻译(只翻译自己认为看得懂的东西,基本上,访问太长了,很多地方一知半解):
剛:对。我完全沒有否定从以前到现在做過的东西。 是好是坏都有影响,所以不能轻易就否定。 我一个人的时候,希望透過ENDLICHERI把心里想说的传送出去,有点像房間被分开2边,中間有一扇門。
剛:不這樣做怕兩邊也會两头不到岸。因為endlicheri的创作手法和以前的东西不一样,所以觀眾的類型也會不一樣。虽然之前想过要统一来做,不过好像不大能兼顾。 这次專輯的封面等都是自己一手包办。好的作品也需要一个能很好配合的包装。 我好像说太多了。
剛:為了將自己的音乐的世界傳達出去。所以,就自己包办所有的工作,包括设计和宣传概念在内。和工作人員互相討論尋找一个平衡点
刚: 本來覺得ENDLICHERI這個名字不太好, 不過,这个是自己想送给自己的禮物,所以。。。应该明白。
剛:拿著主導權的人物有责任好好把握一切,把心里面的讯息慢慢的传开。这次我是中心,一切的事务,就连金钱预算之类的东西也要考虑。
剛:有条隐形的線,為了把它破壞,所以就用ENDLICHERI這個名字了 我想要做到的是,一个人的時候想表达的东西,完全不被改變的传达给观众。对我来说,这点很重要,所以自己要完全掌握著。曲和詞是真實的。。。。變成現實的。
BGM: 空しい空の空 (BABYSITTER) - 名列我10大V系盘前5名,现在2手店应该有得卖,价钱也便宜,有机会可以抱回家,听听当时V系盛行时期强档BAND和现在小弟弟们有什么不同了。

COWARD
浮上來~~~~月黑風高~~~~~有人在嗎??
小小聲說, 艷鳥的公式網站靜悄悄的更新了。
ENDLICHERI公式サイトで「Coward」試聴開始しております。 http://www.endli9.net/flash_content/coward_01.htm
艷鳥後援團裏面現在反應最大的是[雄]。。。。説是歌詞有點露骨~~~~愛你愛到懷孕之類。Nya~~~~~我怎麽說都是被一票V係妖男訓練過滴,所以感覺程度一般啦。好像[故意]也頗受歡迎滴。我現在比較気に入り的是[雄]的intro。
單聽試聽覺得比上次的album強。上次類似concept album, 可惜功力不夠,抓不到終點。這次配樂很強,有進步。不過,距離1張頂級的concept album還是~~~~~まだまだ~~~だね。嘛。。。。反正這個可能只是我一相情願的想法,艷鳥也許也沒想過要做concept album。

心中的斷背山
昨晚和同事埋頭苦幹到有點神志不清,後來看斷背山充電。
一部愛情片。Love is a force of nature。
如果你想著看同志電影,可能要失望了。
很喜歡。
電影處理得很有分寸,感情很内敛,不過不絕望。
沒有無畏的控訴,只有圍繞兩人之間那半生的牽絆。
留下的只有很多很多的無奈和畢生的回憶。
同事曾經讀過這本書,她說精髓都齊了。
電影步調慢,因爲原著更慢。
看到欧尼斯捧着襯衫黯然神伤,竟然哭得一塌糊塗。
想起了自己心中的斷背山。
失去了,永遠無法挽回。

Prince of Tennis
OKAY!!!!!!! I admit....I am terribly hooked onto PoT.
Yes......spit at me, despise me.....look down on me. I have degenerated into one of those screaming fan gals out there.
Seigaku regular.....頑張れ!!!!!!
I am about 25 episodes into the 178 episodes long anime and I am soooo darn hooked.....I feel like taking 2-3 days off work and cramming the remaining episodes altogether. Spent the whole of Sunday from noon till about 9 pm doing nothing but watching PoT. In the meantime, I had like 2 packets of Maggi instant noodle ( curry flavour) to last me the whole day.......nya nya, how did I manage this. Except for toilet breaks and to change the DVD, i swear I din leave my bloody sofa at all....Yeap, the portion I sat at looks suspiciously sunken now. Yes, I am a sucker for those long long series.
Lets put it this way....if you are a guy, you will enjoy this series because its one of the better ones involving some sports. The characters are well developed, each one of them is unique, the tennis games are well animated and the technical aspects of the game are extremely well researched.
If you are a gal, you will like it coz the series has so many bishounens. Everyone of you out there will have a favourite Seigaku regular character and one favourite rival team and one favourite rival team player. There you go.......how can you not be hooked!
Urm.....if you are a yaoi fan like me.....ahem......this series is every yaoi fangal's fantasy. So many pairing possibilities.......the golden pair大石 and 菊丸? 青学最強の男手塚 and 天才不二 ? Ryoma and Momoshiro aka Momo-chan?......uuuurgh....... C'mon, you can slash absolutely anyone with anyone. Not since Saint Seiya has there been another so absolutely slashable anime. ( I am a pervert....but of course I am!!!)
Okay....lest I actually scare some of you potential fans off. Back to the series, besides the wonderful display of tennis games, I think the strength lies in the character creation for this series. Each of the main characters are so unique, no repetition and yet so real.
越前りょうま - this is the prodigy of the show, the supposedly prince of tennis. Bloody cocky and rude, doesn't look a bit like a 12-year old at all. But a character which I like a lot. He sees the tennis court as his own playground and I like the way the central character here is not made out to be the perfect kawaii boy like in most shounen mangas. In fact, besides playing tennis, he is not keen in anything else......except maybe Carupin, his himalayan cat. Although he is a wonderful singles player, he cannot play doubles for nuts and the pairing of Ryoma and Momo-chan turned out to be the most embarrassing moments for Seigaku when Ryoma and Momo-chan had to resort to some really obiang 口號to coordinate their movements. Ryoma is also the record holder for "I can stare at you without blinking" contest (just joking here....)
手塚国光 - Ahem.....this one is my favourite. Very dry character, barely speaks and when he opens his bloody mouth its to make the team run another 20 laps round the court. He happens to be the captain of the Seigaku team and has not lost a game, officially and unofficially. He is otherwise known as 青学最強の男. He was actually the one who helped Ryoma step out of his father (Nanjiro's) shadow to become a truly all-rounded tennis player. I was extremely stunned by the scene when he defeated Ryoma but yet went up to Ryoma and asked him to become Seigaku's pillar. You know, its that love-hate thing, competitive yet he cannot stop caring for Ryoma. (NO......this is not a slashable pair). This guy.....even the teachers are scared shit of him. Always so cool, even when he accidentally drank 乾's secret concoction, he tried to act cool but you could see his hands shivering.....Hilarious!
不二 周助 - THIS is the slashable half for 手塚国光 okay! Also known as天才player, ranked no2 after who-else?? Always smiling and grinning so hard you barely see his eyes for a large part of the anime until he gets serious in court.....this is the time he turns into a monster. This is one guy, you definitely do not want to antagonize for he is a bloody pervert. 不二其實骨子裏很惡劣。雖然平時都一直微笑,不過這個看似人畜無害的小個子其實會在不知不覺中把你吃了。"眼睛一張開你就死定了"....還有就是唯恐天下不亂,愛看別人的熱鬧,看到別人受苦他就開心了。這種女皇性格我太欣賞了。 天才不二萬歲!唯一能夠征服你的就是悶騷王道 - 青学最強の男!!!
海堂薫 - Ugly...u r right but adorable. I was extremely thrilled when he tried to play with Carupin, Ryoma's himalayan cat that accidentally wondered into the locker room. This guy is your typical gentle giant, tries to act tough but really a kind chap at heart. You cannot hate this guy....really.
菊丸英二 - Very good at acrobatic tennis, but stamina is bad. Favourite past time is poking fun at his team mates. He forms half of the golden pair doubles with 大石 . Well......he overdid the teasing and caused the biggest crisis in Seigaku when the Golden Pair almost broke up. ( YES, this is another slashable couple!!!). He has an obsession with toothpaste and has a teddy bear (huge one) which always falls on the left hand side ( OKAY....let me get this straight, he is not a faggot!)
大石 - Vice captain of Seigaku. The other half of the Golden Pair. If 手塚国光 is the dryest of all captains, then 大石 is the matronly figure of the team. Always concerned about his teammates including matters outside of the tennis team.
乾サダはら - This one.....outright pervert. Wears rectangular reflective glasses, enjoys collecting data on different players and analysing them on his computer. He designs training menus and dreams up concotions like the penal-tea ( yes, a penalty drink the players have to down if they finish the laps below 50 sec) and other wierd veg juices. Only the other pervert of the team 不二 seems to enjoy the drinks.
The characters on all other rival teams especially 不動峰are also very well developed. Just cannot go on and on here.
The voice acting is great, even the character songs are solid. The voice actors formed two groups ( i think) between them and one does the heavy power serious sound tracks, while the other groups does all the crappy hilarious songs. The filler episodes are darn funny esp the one where Carupin follows Ryoma to school.
You should watch this if you are a
(1)yaoi lover (2) outright pervert (3) sucker for bishounen (4)sucker for long series (5) tennis lover.
Hmmmm.......I am Fuji .........hmmmmmmm. I am psycho, but def not sexy or irresistable ( in fact, I think I have got so much hate mail, it could bury my CD collection)

全部46場次。。。。目前頭腦一片空白當中。
J老頭想把小剛操死, 想把我的積蓄渣乾。
我得開始籌備了, 如果可以的話,想看多幾場的。。。畢竟solo很難得。
新年快樂!
現在正式和大家拜個年,希望大家在新的一年里都能心想事成,身體健康。
這次回家,覺得父母親好像老了很多。用相機幫我娘拍了一張超近距離大頭特寫。。。。嚇!
我娘曾幾何時頭上都佈滿了一絲絲的白髮了?忽然覺得我陪在他們身邊的時間真的太少太少了。
我爹以前雖然有生一些小病痛,不過身體也算硬朗。可是今年竟然要穿4層衣服。。。在家里也要穿4層衣服,真的大不如前了。
初一,和他們到DISNEY走走,雖然沒玩什麽,不過我知道他們是開心的。 只因爲,我陪了他們去一個他們雖然想去,但平常又不會去的地方。。。懶得走那麽遠路,又要轉車什麽的。主要也是我們好久沒一家3口逛主題公園了。 最後一次是深圳的小人國。那天我忽然好像小學生一樣, 一大早起來準備水壺,酸梅,也帶了能充飢的小麥片餅乾,父母親的藥。。。。我娘還笑說我好像小學生去遠行的樣子。
在DISNEY也沒呆多久,因爲天氣不大好。 後來在青衣商場吃了很簡單的美心快餐。以前父親剛到香港打拼的時候,生活環境沒那麽好,能吃大家樂或大快活都是過年過節的事了。現在我娘卻笑說,吃太豐富反而怕消化不良。
能一家人專心的吃一頓飯,不談別的,只專心在那份"家"的感覺,就算是很簡單的茶餐廳也是好的。
回新加坡前晚,和我娘一起睡。心里決定今年無論如何也要爭取多點時間到香港陪他們。要不就把他們騙過來新加坡。嗯。。。。1-2個月過去香港一次也不錯。

調試心情
很多所謂高度機密 的事情,弄得大家都心惶惶。 忽然看到一些以前從不走在一起的同事,不知道爲了什麽原因連成一線了。 又忽然看到一些以前連成一線的同事, 不知道爲了什麽形同陌路人。
有很多的謠言,或真或假,其實也不太關很多人的事,可是偏偏大家就愛管。如果早把這份好管閒事的精神擺在工作上, 正經的工作,今天應該不至於走到這個地步。 笑。。。。順其自然最好了。反正我們這種職位偏低的小職員, 去到哪裏都一樣。大風大浪有個子高的高層幫我們 頂一下。。。希望如此啦。 要不,偶爾來個長假也不錯的。我打從畢業後, 就沒有享受過長假,第1份工也是考完最後一個paper的第2天就上班了。現在最重要的是調試心情。
最近,我都很專注的作以下事情:
1) 聽一些年代悠久的老牌搖滾。。。。忽然覺得很vintage 起來。。。爆笑!
2) 聽一些年代悠久的演歌。。。。。忽然覺得我真和很多小妹妹有代溝。。。。再爆笑!!(不錯, 當我到最近才知道鄭伊健和梁詠琪分手,我知道我完全脫節了。以前,有一段時期很喜歡maggie的,尤其是我本善良裏頭的伊明頭。。。讓我瘋狂了好久。)
3) 讀已經讀了千次的絕愛和BRONZE。。。。。這個純粹好色和S心理作祟。。。汗!(不過, 我覺得啊,這本漫畫難得的讓我每次看感情都起伏得很厲害。。。看完會覺得很累/爽。)
4) 努力照顧我兩顆名為晃司和拓人的仙人掌。是兩顆種在一起的仙人掌。不過,上個星期我的拓人病入膏肓死了。。。。今天早上,我的晃司也宣佈要陪拓人去了。我的小心肝竟然也。。。哦,疼呢。(我真的不會照顧生物。。。真的!本來心底有個衝動想再養過新的。。。還是算了。仙人掌這種生命體都會被我弄死。。。。還是算了。)
今天的BGM - 老牌搖滾 (冷)
歌手要說的話很多。。。。如果覺得你能收到他的message。。。也跟我說說吧。這首當時不是主打,不過我認爲是album 裏面最強的一首歌了。。。所以我一相情願的認爲是他真正最後的message。

Born Into Brothels
Definitely not new, but it was something which I had always wanted to watch. Finally a colleague who just came back from the US had the DVD and lent it to me over the weekend.
I had earlier had the chance to look at the photo exhibits taken by the kids and I was completely ....WOW....blown into bits. I will never ever believe that some of these shots were taken by kids as young as 10 years of age. Very adult themes, very matured eye.
For those who have not heard of the documentary, it is related to the Kids with Cameras fund. Zana Briski was originally a photographer who headed towards Calcutta's red light district to complete a project on prostitution there. The chance encounters with the numerous kids of the prostitutes made her abandon her original work and she embarked on the documentary "born into brothels". The kids at the many brothel houses took on a huge amount of interest in the little gadget Briski was holding - her camera. It was this that sparked a new realization in Briski - she had to free these kids. She started classes for the kids at these brothel homes, teaching them all she knew about professional photography. The Kids with Cameras fund was also established in 2002, with the sole purpose of empowering these marginalised children through learning the art of photography. The works of these children had been exhibited in various location and can be bought over the kids with cameras website above.
The good thing about this documentary was that it did not dwell on the usual sappy side that such documentaries tend to spiral towards. Instead, it was a straightforward film about how the kids was drawn into a totally foreign world of photogarphy and how Briski found so much joy and meaning in helping these kids, who would otherwise end up as prostitutes most likely. Its sad, but the caste system still exists, and many of these kids will grow up not knowing what school was, never being able to read anything.......things that I have taken for granted all this while.
My BGM today : Summary
(A Japanese friend who is suffering from 皮膚筋炎sent me this live recording. She said that after hearing this song, she felt extremely encouraged. Hope it does the same to me eh !)
Lyrics below :
振り向かずに行こう
遥かなあの未来へ
大きな夢運ぶ僕らは時の旅人
繋がってくHistory
受け継がれた情熱
この胸の誇りはけして離しはしなぃ
Rise太陽は昇り
Shine鮮やかに燃える 全ての命が今輝く
Break out x 2 時代を切り開く New Story
Go ahead x 2 迷う暇はなぃ
Don't be afraid Dream On
Go out x 2 生きてく証を刻むんだ
Believe in yourself かけがえのないこの時に

ENDLICHERI ENDLICHERI by 堂本 剛
小龜真是越大越有味道了。翻了他以前剛進事務所的照片。。。其實樣子有點對不起的。
(我怎麽會有他以前的照片呢。。。原來我以前就開始偷偷注意他了嘛?恐怖!)
周末受到了驚嚇。。。然後頭腦就一直維持在當機狀態!艷鳥你知道是誰嗎?就是堂本剛的筆名。朋友都說很像牛郎的名字。。。我也覺得啦。
我家太上皇的筆名也跟鳥有關係 - 白鳥瞳。。。。至少有氣質。
我不行了!

アンダルシアに憧れて
這首歌是自己的心頭好,意境微妙,故事性強,旋律優美,配合適當的舞蹈。。。很讚!
アンダルシア - 安達露西亞位於西班牙安達路西亞自治區,是佛朗明哥(Flamenco)音樂與舞蹈的起源地。在這首歌中,安達露西亞是男主角渴望遠離幫派生涯,和女主角一起私奔的地方。
カルメン Carmen - 法國作曲家音樂家(Bizet)所編寫的歌劇『卡門』,後來也被編寫為舞劇,卡門亦為劇中女主角的名字,而安達露西亞的首府塞維亞正是卡門的故鄉。歌中,卡門是本來和男主角約好要私奔的女主角的代稱.
スタッガ-リ- Stagger Lee ,確有此人,他在酒館中,和朋友喝醉了爭吵起來,後來朋友把他的帽子搶走,他一氣之下就拿出手槍把對方當場射殺。後來,它就成為謎凶狠惡棍的代表。在這首歌中,他代表在暗中埋伏男主角的壞人。
ボルサリ-ノ - 一種男式軟帽。這個字在歌詞中出現兩次,第一次是在描述男主角準備要出門私奔去的裝扮,所以唱到這裡時,會摸一下帽沿。第二次是在描述男主角中彈,帽子飛起的樣子,所以唱到這時,就會帥氣地把頭上戴的帽子甩開
グラナダ - 西班牙城市的迷人之都。在這首歌中,當男主角遇伏被打傷時,腦海裡浮現他和她翩翩起舞的畫面。
這首歌就是說,幫派中的男主角,本來和戀人約好一起私奔,目的地就是安達露西亞,但就在他要出發前,接到幫裡的電話,前往支援,到了現場,卻馬上遭受偷襲,在混亂中身中數槍,性命垂危,但他心中所牽掛的還是跟他約好的戀人。。。。
早年聽, 一直以爲安達露西亞是女人的名字。。。。慚愧!
另外, 如果當年J老頭沒有近藤真彥幫他打下這個江山,就不會有現在規模如此大的J家夢工廠, 更不會有我們熟悉的JUNIORS, SMAP, KINKI 等了!所以。。。。MATCHY 樣。。。尊敬!
KINKI KIDS H CONCERT – HAVE A NICE DAY BABY !!!! Pt 2
今天和一位在網絡上認識的新kinki友見面。年紀和我差不多,不過當然比我這個豬頭長相克艾青春多了!她還很熱情的為我張羅了一張位置比我自己抽到好很多的位置,就在1階,正面舞臺的方向。。。。大感激!
(後來自己的票就這樣廢了,因爲有印我的大名所以還是留下來做個紀念~~~)
中段MC部分,ma秀完了空翻。。。。這時光一雪崩臉再現,還問剛要不要也來做點什麽。 (昨晚,剛搞笑的要翻不翻之間。。。。結果沒翻!)
剛很靦腆地把吉他從身上解下來,走到舞臺旁邊作了空翻的起手式,本來還以爲他又要重復昨晚的笑話。。。。誰知,這次他很乖的作了一個漂亮利落的側空翻!!!!(就是碩子少年舞蹈的那款啊。。。。)
不過,最好笑的事,剛竟然翻到連鞋子都翻出來了,還要勞煩王子把鞋子撿起來。光一還不停的大笑 -- 你真的是天才!!!天才!!!!!
對的對的。。。。剛無論作什麽都是天才!如果換成是JUNIOR,某王子一定滿臉黑綫。
1/1 – TROUBLE滿滿的千秋樂
小剛生病了啦。。。。。。。好可憐!發燒呢!
小剛的移動舞臺無法啓動!那一瞬間,可能受了驚嚇,過呼吸又發作了!大熒幕上很清楚看到小剛捂著胸口深呼吸眉頭緊鎖的大特寫。哦。。。心碎!
另一只在音樂停止是慌忙的找尋剛的蹤影。。。。。我看那晚八成有個可憐的工作人員要被罵了!
不過,後來恢復正常。小剛還興致勃勃的玩起模仿遊戲。。。這一段全都用古文加敬語的叔父さん口吻。。。。可愛。。。。。爆棚!!!!
對了, 今年我們也有好好的為光一慶生!剛的禮物還是一張畫, 不過畫裡面的人很像秋山,而且還寫了 あき(秋)めだして おめでとう!!!!剛還一付很後悔搞錯的樣子。
對了, 順帶一提, 裝畫的紙袋是紀伊國屋的袋子 – 高級超級市場噢!
(一個我和神秘人,姫ちゃん和SCENICTOUR首次在東京過聖誕時無意發現的地方!好懷念!) 後來, 秋山拿結他出來抱光一, 光一卻大叫 “為什麼在五萬人面,在新年時,竟然不是剛而是你抱我???????” (違背良心說的吧。。。你們倆只應該早抱過了吧。。。不要越描越黑。) 剛顯然今天很HIGH, 還作了曲子給光一, 結果只有第一句唱了有關光一的事,後面都在場秋山耶。。。。搞得被光一吐嘈說文不對題。
還有剛也即興秀了一段吉他。。。他那個甩指頭的技巧,不錯的說,

KINKI KIDS H CONCERT – HAVE A NICE DAY BABY !!!! Pt 1
(不要問我這個怪怪的名字是什麽含義,反正就是自己無聊)
先說30/12 場次,這個特別哦, 我身旁多了兩個神秘嘉賓 – 神秘人和姫ちゃん。這是他們的kinki禁忌show初體驗呢!雖然不知道感想如何,不過應該還好吧。。。笑!我是賣花讚花香囖!
請掌聲鼓勵LOVE LOVE重現江湖!
LOVE LOVE 1 – 洗手閒
好像年年都會有關於廁所的話題出現。。。。不過今年的好可愛!
説光一在廁所遇到剛,不僅大聲地說 : 這真是奇遇!
剛忽然想到有件事情要和光一說, 於是把咪放下來想直接在舞臺上和光一說。 光一這個時候雪崩臉出現,拼了老命往剛那邊靠。剛笑說太靠近了,光一還是一直往前還把頭靠了過去剛的耳邊。結果就是全場5萬多人看兩個咬耳朵,進行恍若無旁人的粉紅世界。
最後一句: 這是秘密啊 (我說, 你們兩個,給我老實點!)
LOVE LOVE 2 - 你無論做什麽都好笑!
談到大阪場次結束後, ma在剛的房間一直留到早上。光一好像吃醋般一直追問到底他們在房間里幹什麽。 (王子打翻醋罎子,恐怖!!)
原來,他們都再玩一些很無聊的模仿遊戲。真是冷到不行。。。姫ちゃん在我身邊都快睡覺了。
反正5萬觀衆裏面應該沒一個覺得這個部分好笑。。。。只有一個笨蛋王子在那一邊說一邊猛笑 : 你做什麽都好好笑噢!(而且這句話重復了N次好不好!。。。。我都快冷死了)
LOVE LOVE 3 –光一的髪の毛BABY
對。。。。今天光一耍笨的口頭語是baby,反正什麼也加baby在後面
光一終於忍不住叫了剛一句: baby (尖叫!!!!)
然後 再大聲加多一句: 髪の毛BABY (冷一個。。。髪の毛BABY。。。光一專用滴!)
LOVE LOVE 4 - この髪かたはホンマにいいわ
MC剛開始光一又開始hardsell自己的專輯,突然很大聲的對剛大叫 : 你的髮型變了!!!!
剛很不好意思的回答說 :對啊對啊 (超可愛,反正就是那種baby tsuyo的聲音)
光一還不嫌厭煩地重復了N次 –この髪かたはホンマにいいわ!害得剛不好意思起來。
後來,光一故作神秘的說自己也剪了頭髮, 被剛吐說他有剪和沒剪根本沒差!(吐得好!good work tsuyo baby!!!!)
然後,整晚最具爆發性的言論就是 :
剛 : 你不要一付剪了頭髮男朋友沒發現的樣子好不好!
光一 : 我就是女朋友,那又怎樣!
(角色對調。。。。不過, 我一點也不介意!)
汗。。。不習慣kinki演唱會MC的應該很困擾吧。。。。爲什麽每年都有一大群笨蛋願意冒著變冰棒的危險,在巨蛋排一整天的隊,花畢生的積蓄為的只是看兩個超級大笨蛋講一些只有他們聽得懂的冷笑話。
不過呢, 說正經的,兩只的唱功明顯進步平穩了。 尤其是王子, 剛則是轉音和假音部分技巧厲害了。 舞蹈之外,我覺得慢歌和中段jam的感染力超強。 很多CD裏面平平無奇的歌曲,live上的感覺超乎意料的好。 Single c/w春雷本來覺得很俗氣,可是live上現場演奏,加上兩人契合得離奇的harmony。。。。。。整晚下來,竟然讓我印象深刻。真是芭辣到不行的曲子。。。。最適合live上演奏了。 另外一首我相信讓人跌破眼鏡的就是雪白的月。也是single c/w。只能說,現場能唱到這個樣子,讓我有點意外。回家聽了cd,結論是感染度沒有演唱會上好。雪白的月在live上觸動了我所謂的麻點。(麻點是什麽??? 是bh詞一個。。。就是有些歌曲,某個部分, 可以是一個音符, 一段吉他, 或者是一小節歌詞。。。。總之對於我來説是整首歌曲的靈魂所在,只要一聽到這個部分,全身雞皮疙瘩都回冒起來,腦袋嗡嗡響,心裏面某個部分隱隱作疼還有點下榻的感覺。。。。。很誇張?? 音樂的樂趣就在此噢!!!) 這首歌的麻點就在 剛唱那句 “譲るコトモ出来ないほど ”的時候。。。。最後一個音符,先故意不唱對key,而是選了降3個key再划到原本的key 的唱法。。。很讚,只是短短的0.1秒,我就被吃得死死了。 (比如說,本來應該唱E,可是他故意唱C再轉音到E!)
12/1 早上補充 :歌曲另一處還有一個麻點。。。。就是開頭部分光一唱 到"弱さも見せたくなくて" 的時候,聲音收得很美。跟前面一句頑"張ってはいるけど"的奔放形成很微妙的對比。。。。總覺得這個部分光一感情表現得很好呢。
希望這次會出DVD!拜托啦,死J家老頭!
好好。。。。先寫這麽多吧。。。。嘛,反正看的人沒幾個。。。笑!只是, 我怕再不寫,很快就會忘光了。

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2006!!!!
Its a bit late, but HAPPY NEW YEAR 2006!!!!!!
Am totally NOT in the right frame of mind to work yet. Yes, I left my heart and soul in Tokyo.
Will dedicate the next few weeks....urm maybe months (looking at the snail pace at which i blog) to reliving some of the precious moments I had in Tokyo. Just need to jot down the following so that i will not forget, and if I do, you can remind me meh...nyek nyek :
- Food, more glorious food and 食べ放題
- Rice rice and more rice
- danger crue and PATA
- DT DT and my beloved kinki
- 姫ちゃん and 神秘人's first kinki live at Tokyo Dome
- first meeting with cha2
- first meeting with new japan kinki tomo - yuzuha san
- my little stray affair with kat-tun のkの亀ちゃん
-青春AMIGO-the single that just accidentally sold over a million copies. This one is fun, was blasting it the whole of last nite to lift up my spirits while I unpacked by luggage.
Ok....need to get back to work and clearing my mails. ....... ......but I have a strange feeling I will be back in Japan quite soon......hmmm, if the uwasa is true.
