ok then, serious discussion:
Thorns coiled around the sun
Regret melts with the mixture of a sigh
I spit and laugh at the dreams I've seen enough of
The hearts of men eaten by loneliness grows cruelly
It melts into the layers of white
Undesired
The shattered truth means the opposite
Love to the smile
The gloomy morning has already died
It's going far away, unable to reach
I want to fall asleep in the innocent gentleness with the tears
Lying about being pregnant is so carefree
The drowning tears in the pool made by a razor, taste vaguely sweet
The gloomy tomorrow has already died
I hated myself for not being able to forgive the tears, the lies and the love
But I can't go back
It's going far away, unable to reach
I want to fall asleep in the innocent gentleness with the tears
It just echoes beyond the red sky in the background
The cries can not be... heard anymore
interpret.
((lyrics to concieved sorrow, btw))
EDIT: and congrats on making it to 100! ...so far off...

Thing is, we used to have separate threads for all these different discussions, and they were so graciously combined into a singular Dir en grey thread (as were all the rest of the bands/artists). I could see the complaints if this were an actual j-rock forum...but...this is JRef. This is the only thread we have. Gotta make due, ya know?
Edit: No one complains about mass Gackt image posting.

Well, my "what" was in reference towards the fact that the thread seemed to be pretty quiet/normal. Then all of a sudden, for a few pages, it was like homg FANGIRLSPLOSION, o hay here's 500+ pics! But um, you don't have to apologize for posting just one pic every now and then. And I guess it's just my opinion that this place is suited just fine for discussion...being a forum and all. Even if it is just a smaller sub-forum among many others.
Hehe, want a prompt? Well, I can't recall if this has been discussed here (last week of school, scatterbrained, leave me alone XD ), but what are people's opinions of the unplugged disc from The marrow of a bone? As for me, although I really love the focus on the piano in Namamekashiki (piano gets me every time X3 ), my favorite of the three is Conceived Sorrow. Overall, it creates a really haunting atmosphere to me.
aaaaaaand go! XD

awsome! *resolved* 
concieved sorrow sticks out to me the most... it gives me really cool/intersting images in my head. it's way different from what you'd expect from a typical "unplugged" version of a song. it is, like you said, haunting. like, defintion haunting >.> ... it's the most memorable, i think... and the most different from the original.
Namamekashiki- piano gets me too... i swear, with ain't afraid to die and jealous-reverse- and then yoshiki and gackt etc... i thought i'de get over it. but i didn't ;_; oh well! i think the unplugged version works with the song the best in this one... the original could have been in piano and been just as good... it especially works well as a contrast to the scream at the end. also, i like it because you can hear the overwhelming emotion in kyo's voice... at the end of the original both the guitars and kyo's voice get loud at the end (which is awsome) but the guitars drown kyo out a tiny bit... so it's basically ridiculously strong with the piano. it also just gives the right feel.
THE PLEDGE- it's nice. i like it a lot. you can tell the same sort of thing with the emotion in kyo's voice as namamekashiki... but i def. perfer the original... but it's still amazing.
overall.... i love it more than my pet kitten (which is a lot), and i love the songs they picked, but... concieved sorrow, namablahblah (i'm really lazy), and THE PLEDGE were all kind of easy choices to 'unplug'. i would have loved to here what unplugged ASOM would sound like (or one of the others like that)... though i'm not sure it can be done XD oh well, if anyone could do it, it would be diru.

Yeah, that's what I was referring to as well. The massive amount of pics and the chat room-like discussions really threw me off.
The unplugged version of Conceived Sorrow is definitely my favourite on there. The build up with the string section gives me chills everytime.

hehe, Agitated Screams of Maggots unplugged? That would be interesting.overall.... i love it more than my pet kitten (which is a lot), and i love the songs they picked, but... concieved sorrow, namablahblah (i'm really lazy), and THE PLEDGE were all kind of easy choices to 'unplug'. i would have loved to here what unplugged ASOM would sound like (or one of the others like that)... though i'm not sure it can be done XD oh well, if anyone could do it, it would be diru.
For a lot of the album, I think the vocals are overall too harsh for an unplugged version, which I suppose has something to do with why they picked the three that they did. Hmm, what about Disabled Complexes? Kyo's pretty toned down in that song for the most part. Not sure how it would sound, though... X3;

er.. hi? 
"
just tot i'd check out Diru's thread in this forum but apparently there's some kinda arguement goin on? not that i'd want anything to do with it, demo... c'mon guys.. chill! its nice that people are sharing photos and stuff. unless they start goin all squeally & nutty over the photos(publicly, as in posting their squealing?)... then it starts getting fan-girlish. *shudders*
well.. THE PLEDGE. great lyrics, the tune has a nice, smooth flow.. right on the top of my list. oh, GRIEF & CONCEIVED SORROW are also on my list.
& i most definitely still like the songs which were previously released singles, Clever Sleazoid (in 2005) & ryoujoku no ame (in 2006)...
