Hide

All of hide's songs are amazing, I have two of his cds, Ja:Zoo and hide your face, both REALLY good albums. I've heard his Pshyence album is the best.
 
I'm not suprised ^^, I've been looking for it in this shop that I bought the other ones in but I haven't found it yet. I guess I'll have to get it online
 
I prefer him from 1984 to 1990, then, he just become a big doll...

Charisma is awesome if you're an artist, that's what he had; musically I hate all his solo songs: except for Good Bye and Pink Spider, the rest is just stupid music to satisfy hypnotized fans.

Love his Saver Tiger era, hate his solo career, that's all.
 
Can I ask why you hate his solo work? I dunno but to me he kinda made rock his own, I mean I love him better in X-Japan than solo, but only by a little bit 'cuz X-Japan was an awesome band, but his solo work was his own ideas and inspirations so I respect for that
 
I think so, as well. I don't think anybody else possessed such a unique sound back then. I crazy about songs like Beauty & Stupid, Genkai Haretsu, Hi Ho and I could go on forever but I don't want my fingers to bleed. Even today, I don't think songs posseses what hide songs had. I'm not saying they are bad, but I guess some are lacking.
 
I love hide thanks to my best friend ^^. I don't own very much of his stuff because I also can't find it unless I go to little tokyo in LA and I can't afford to all the time. I do own the perfect singles collection and Zilch 3.2.1 it's one of the hardest cd's to find, i've only found it once and I won it on ebay, I haven't even seen it at all on yahoo japan auctions or in any cd store.

oh god SaKeVi is back >_< *sighs*
 
If you're gonna upload some song, tell by pm -> Forum rules are no links to downloads ^^
I love Hideto's song called "dice", it's really energetic !!

oh sorry ^^;; i didn't know.

dice is so energetic indeed!
i listen to it in the morning
so i can get myself up haha.
 
and i have to say that x japan was an awesome band and
hide's solo career was worth it too. i can't say which i like
better, x's music or hide's but these days they don't make
same kind of music, it's true. i like newer bands but somehow
i notice that i listen to old music more than new or recent
at least. i find myself listening to the older x albums and
older albums by which ever band. i dunno maybe i am just so
nostalgic person haha.

and what it comes to the songs made with zilch, they're pure
gold. i have heard some of the music zilch made after hide
passed away and it's not that good at all, sorry, it's just my
opinion. these are all just my personal opinions so no need
to get offended okay? ^^

for me hide's solo music is just something so amazing which
i've said a million times (sorry for repeating lol) so i can't
understand ppl who don't like it or even hate it. and music is
business in some parts but i'm sure hide didn't make music
for money. i mean that guy really loved what he was doing!

 
yepyep, he was a very passionate guy and the thing I love about him most is that you could tell he didn't do it for the money. I mean, the guy was working with AIDs programs and such. To me thats the most important thing, he was unique and caring, but crazy at the same time, I think he sorta pushed the boundaries when it came to his music, much like X
 

Beyond all the fangirlism, something important about hide is his music eras:

When he started with Saver Tiger, we can see him doing whatever he wanted, from music to style, he was the one who made Visual perfect, and he was doing stuff to feel good, as a good musician does.

Then he joined X, as all of we know (and if you don't know, learn) he had a big wall called Yoshiki... even hide made important contributions to X, he was just an employer of X emporium.

Later he started his solo career: unfortunately he made music to keep fans satisfied, music to be sold just because "hide was crazy", and all the respect I had for that guy went away flushing the toilet... he wasn't a musician anymore, he was a marketing artist.

That's why I respect hide's era from 1984 to 1990, when he really made music, when he was actually a good musician and not a big doll to sell merchandise.


Heh, I have that Zilch CD, I could have sold it to you in $5

Thanks, I missed you all so much
 
Am I really acting like a fangirl? I mean I know he was in all those bands but I never heard any of his songs from before X, I just know he impacted people in a big way, fangirls/boys or not.

Wait, your wrong there. hide was loved in X, he wasn't just an employer. Yoshiki often said that when he would get stressed and go off on the band, hide would come talk to him and tell him that he should calm down and Yoshiku listened. Yoshiki wasn't a wall in front of hide, he cared about what hide thought and what he wanted. He took all of X's feelings into consideration.
 
thats true, I mean like when Toshi left, I don't think Yoshiki stopped him because he knew that the music was getting to be too much for him
 

Do you know how many musicians played during the history of X?? more than 40. Do you know why most of them left the band?? because of Yoshiki's attitude.

We shouldn't go so far: Taiji and Toshi.

Taiji: He left the band because Yoshiki never took into consideration his music influences.

Toshi: He just got tired of being a puppet, behaving as Yoshiki said, "you should sing like this, you should feel this way, you should look like you're suffering..." That's why Toshi left the band, to make and sing music that he really feels, and not just a script that Yoshiki wrote to perform on stage and TV.

After all, it was Yoshiki's band, and thanks to Yoshiki's money, they released their first album, after 1991, he managed X and his own image as a brand, you can see that on their releases: "Produced by Yoshiki, Co-produced by X Japan"

And I though they were a band...
 
HMMMM this is an interesting discussion, or well kinda , but SaKeVi I have a question, where did you read that? I mean how did you get that information, because just like the rest of the members in this thread I know a different version☝ . I knew they were a band, and that X took into consideration hide sama's feelings and stuff, so Im really curious to know where do you get all that information? seems very....specific?
 
Which part??

Or well, you could find that out in my profile =P
 
The part about there being like 40 X members, why Toshi and Taiji left and the part about Yoshiki being a douche bag (you didn't say that but, that what it comes off like).

I know their history since they were Dynamite in 1979 ^_^

About taiji, I knew that (and some other stuff...) on an interview I did to an old friend of him from Trash (Taiji used to play in a punk band in 1983)

About Toshi, because he said that many times in interviews, but hey, japanese fangirls are rabid, and they blamed Toshi unjustify: "he is in a sect" "he was brainwashed by his wife..." when the truth is that he wasn't feeling comfortable with his role in X, in Yoshiki's X.

Oh...you get your info from the inside sources? Well, that would make sense...seeing as how you know all of this info, that can't really be found online.

The problem with internet and fan sites is that the info isn't very reliable at all, it depends a lot on the mood of the creator, and well, I'm not against fangirls, but they usually put a lot of lies online...

if you have questions, here I am
 
SaKeVi-> LOL sorry !!! is just that, you seem too know a lot, I mean UN CHINGO XD!!! hahaha about X thats awsome and helpful!!! thanks
