from last.fm

she's got an amazing voice (i think better than shiina ringo) and her stuff is really veried!
from gritty electro rock, to funky dace mixes.
i noticed there wasn't a thread on her while i was listning, and... yeah, figgured she needed one... anyone know of her?

 

[Lady Blue]

I've heard. It's good, but I guess i need to sit down and listen carefully before I say more.

*loves youre avatar*

i supose the first thing i heard by her was dragon fly, and that got me completely hooked....
i've only heared 2 of her albums, but i love everything on there...
i think reading that she dose illustrations and grphic design really did it for me though XD
gotta love the multi talented ^.^

 

[Lady Blue]

Well, that's one thing I didn't know about her! In a first place, I crashed into her because I was looking for that j-rock band: D. And she popped out. So I decided to listen to her and downloaded an album, but I can't tell you which one cos I have it at work. But I remember I liked her style. And she's pretty too.

thanx, for the avatar.

 

[furan]

lol, yeah....
i don't know much about her at all...
but i think i might prod my friend into looking at her OHP and doing some translations... XD
though... i have a feeling that's all there is on her on there...

i love her voice... it's like... graspy, but still got a lot of tone... and it really suites the styles of music she plays.
if the album you got was Daisy, that's my favorit ^.^

 

[Lady Blue]

I'll tell you on tuesday when I get back to work. And... well, it might be a litlle difficult to find, cos I input D and a whole bunch of vampires showed up... XD

 

[furan]

lol
yeah... it annoyes me when people call themselves silly thing like that... don't they know it's IMPOSSIBLE to find them on google? XDDD

 

[Lady Blue]

Well... i don't think they do think of it when they pick a name. Maybe we should adress them a lettler to tell them.. of put a big sign somewhere... I'd like that.. but of course not in Japan, i could go to jail and that's not exactly how I plan to spent my time when I get there...

Do you know if she has a official web site? I didn't bother to look up for it, besides, I like vampires and the picture of one of them made me forgot what was I looking for in a first place.

Have you notice?? There's only you and I in this thread.. feels weird. Like when somebody asks me what's my favourite band and I say: X-japan... they look at me almost calling me freak... shoot!!!

 

[furan]

...... XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
i LOVE your avatar btw

LOLO, yes, a sign... good idea XD lol, but no... i don't wanna be arrested either ^^;

D[di:] official web site - that's teh official website. it's all in Japanese (obv. ) but if you can get somethign more form that then i'd appreciate it! ^.^
XDDDDDD yeah ^^; well... um... yeah, there's some of her artwork on there too, it'as really good! ^.^

O.O
that's.... strange... x-Japan is a VERY good band to be your fave!
shows you appreciate the originals XD
but yeah... just the two of us... lol, i've been in threads like this beofre... lol... all of them are burried now... or finally brought back on topic XDDD

 

[Lady Blue]

Maybe some day, when she releases something new. Ah.--- and I'm going to fail you. I deleted that file... sorry. But itwas that one with a close up of her face and her hands were covered with... flour? and it only said: D (di

And how couldn't I have them as favourites? X-Japan fills all of my expectations of what metal/rock should be. Of course not the only band I listen to. I also like Kagrra.

 

[furan]

damn, that sounds like a really cute picture! >.<

... lol, omigod... you couldn't be talking to someone who agree's more! X-Japan are the exact image of good old fashioned metal *loves it*
.... but.... for you... to mention... Kagrra,.... XDDDDDD
lol, perhaps you dont' realise it because you joined after i left... but... yeah... i like to think i'm partially responsible for the increase in Kagrra, overseas fans XDDD
... obviously, i'm not really... but i'm a AKgrra, NUT and happen to know way too much about them ^^;

 

[Lady Blue]

And I know nearly nothing about them!! Not even whats the damn difference between the kagrra and kagrra, ; but still, i like them.. How did I get into them? ... *thinks hard* I guess it was just so much hearing about them. I decided to download a minialbum and I liked what I heard. I dont even know their names...

and the weird look people give me is because here where I live,this music, genre and even country, is unknown. I have to get everything from the net cos there isnt one store related to j.music in thousands of miles around the desert...

ah. and Ill try to find that pic..

 

[furan]

*grins from ear to ear*
i love people like you... it means i can teach you everything there is to know about Kagrra, XD
(btw, the holw deal with the ',' is they changed their name in 2004 from 'Kagrra' to 'Kagrra,' after they whent major ^.^)
it also menas you're an actual fan of their music too... i mena, i'm sure people are... but sometimes i think it's bad to get into a band because you theink they 'look cute' because it alters your judgment... slightly ^^;
if you go to the bands bit there's a thread... a looooooooooooooong time ago i started it and no-one was interested, but i was so obsessed i still talked about them everywhere else XD so... i rebooted the thread and people were like YAY a Kagrra, thread! XD
there's pictures and a bio for the band members in the first page... a teeny bit of history in the opening bit, but not much ^^; however, i did write their bio on last.fm: Kagrra, hometown, lineup, biography | Last.fm
anyways, check it out! if you want more info or anything i'm happy to share! ^.^

lol, well... finding Jrock or even Jmusic is a chure anywhere unless you're in France or Germany
aperently there are 2 places in the UK that sell it... i've only ever seen one, and it's £24 (about $50 US) for a CD there.... they do sell SHOXX though... and a fair few other magazines... but they're still £13 *dead*

hee hee, thank you! i've seen like... next to no pics of here because it's so hared to search her! and there are no fan sites

 

[Lady Blue]

thanx for calling me an ignorant in such a nice way...
You know?? I've passed that thread over and over and never been there... XD. I'll give it some time soon, I hope. Thanx for clearing up that comma thing.

japanese products are expensive and the prize goes higher with the importation. Maybe is and advantage to buy online. Gackt Diabolos album cost me 27 usd, shipping included. which I think is very much okay if I compare it to some national artist.

And I bought some time ago, a 3 month subscription to Fool's mate magazine... that hurted. 45 usd... shipping included. I'll never do that again.

 

[Lady Blue]

got it!! I found the link again. It was a single called shiroi kakera. and it was her first single. It's this one:
[/IMG]

I'll PM you now.

 

[furan]

hee hee, that's such a cute picture!!!!
thank you!!!!
and thanks for that PM ^.^

it's suchn a shame there's like... no info on her... i'd live to read one of her mangas!

lol, ooo i wasn't calling you ignorent...i'd be supper hypocritical if i was!
the story of me and Kagrra,...
i had a few tracs on my computer, and a picture of these pretty men in kimonos... i loved that picture, and the few tracks were amongst the favorite in my play list....
..... it took me THREE MONTHS to work out that those tracks were by THE SAME ARTIST and off the same album infact, not only that, but this particular band was the very smae band i had the picture for XDDDDD
.... yes... i am dence ^^;

yeah, inporting's rediculously exspencive >.<
but yesasia's pretty good on proces...
i still find it rediculose to spend 14 odd US$s on just on single... but... J-music's usually good with that, and you often get your money's worth... but still >.<
they are, as you mentioned, not much cheeper in Japan, so... it's fair i guess

 

[Lady Blue]

Kind of. I buy on www.cdjapan.co.jp and my Xmas gift is gonna be Gackt's Diabolos final concert at Tokyo Dome!!!!! *shivers*

and about that ignorant thing, I said it on my own. It is true.

 

[furan]

lol
ok ^^;

ok, maybe you could clear this up... you seem nice and not likely to hit me for asking...
.... does Gackt have cancer? this guy keeps saying he does and he's gone to hide somewhere while he's recovering...
but i don't believe him because i think i would have heared about it... but then you said final concert and i thought.... o.... maybe he does :?


CDJapan's good, but i get free shipping with yesasia, so i usually buy from there ^.^
also, it's got a really good selection of like... everything ^.^
or i get from Amazon if i'm ordering from there anyways ^.^

 

[Lady Blue]

Gackt cancer?? Maybe he got it wrong because you'll see.. he's cancer (starsign).. and hides out every time he can because he's like this vampire thing???.... Ok, whatever. But no. he's not sick as far as I know.

I said final. Yes,, but the final concert of his Diabolos tour, which last like two months or so and the last one was on december 24. They say he's planning a short tour through america next year, along with Yoshiki, former drummer and pianist from X-japan.

I don't buy that much. Besides, I kinda have a problem with credit cards and paypal system.

 

[furan]

lol
thank you for clearing that up for me!!!! lol... maybe.... LOL that would be funny if he did XD he's from HK so he might had read a japanese report or something, but as he can't read hirigana missed out the crudial bits XD
though... i can imagin the simbol for cancer as in the zodiac and the deseas are quite different.... :?
anyways thank you for letting me know! XD i'm glad he's ok... i couldn't make fun of him if he wasn't >.<

REALLY!?! omigod.... Gact and Yoshiki together... that.... is like.... omigos... they have to come here! Yoshiki loved england... *pouts*

yeah... that's always the annoying thing >.<
mind you... my biggest problem is more the fact i have no money than anything else.. XDDD

 

[PSYCHdust]

I've got the angel meat pie album and it's nifty but I've never heard much other than that. D:

 

[furan]

....? i thought she only had 2 albujs... *ponders*
well... i've got the Shiroi Kakera single and Daria and Star Fire Starter....

but yeah, i've got some other stuff that doesn't seem to go in any of them so i guess she must have more stuff out... :?

 

[PSYCHdust]

Daria. That's it.

Shows how much I pay attention. @_@ It was the album with angel meat pie on it.

 

[Lady Blue]

Yay.. the thread grew.

I thought it really was an album called angel meat pie...

 

[dniwer]

I always thought D[di:] was a band not just a girl, lol. Anyways, I've had some of her music for a while and I like it a lot ^^
