Hello miyavi fans !!
It's my first post here... although I used to read the replies a lot.
I just wanted to get some informations about miyavi, because I haven't read what had been going on for months... And I don't have the courage to read the 159 pages I missed sorry ! You post replies with an insane speed, it's very difficult to follow the conversation ...
So....
1) I heard that miyavi would come to Europe ?When ? Or....Did I miss hiiiiim ??
2)I heard something too about getting in a band again... What does it mean ?
3) When will he release a new album ?
Thank youu !

I have been having trouble being caught up and replying to the posts as well, sorry everyone!! Anyways, here are some more pix. The last one is one of my faves

I reckon the chain would be very uncomftable
I could do tht if I wanted LOL

I cant wait for him to release stuff about the band
the anticipation is killing me
its horrible!!
likes to keep us on ours toes and guessing!

I do think he will be invovled in the super band thou, it just all points to it in my eyes!?

Ok, so I'm putting up the previous journal again. There's some more things I need to address. Thanks to Jessica Rain for the info.

Translation:
No way, it's February already?
The passing of time, so fast (before I know it it's the Weekend)1

I've been writing music all the time and have lost the concept of what day it is
(Endless Rain of work)2

Moreover I've been sitting all the time, so my back hurts (no one gives me a break)3

As I'm going back and forth between here and Los Angeles this month I'll be writing music just as usual.

Because I just want to be with you always just the same
No matter what happens I want to be smiling Without fear of hurting or losing a thing
No matter what happens I will be here for you I'll absolutely show you how strong I can be
Now I still can only face my weaker self

/Miyavi

So...In the parenthesis ()
1) (before I know it it's the Weekend) Weekend is another X Japan song.
2) (Endless Rain of work) Again, Endless Rain is an X Japan song.
3) (no one gives me a break) This sentence should normally be written like so, ﾂ"daremo oyasumi kurenaiﾂ" 窶儂窶堙?窶堋ｨ窶ｹx窶堙昶?堋ｭ窶堙ｪ窶堙遺?堋｢, instead of writting 窶堋ｭ窶堙ｪ窶堙遺?堋｢ (kurenai = not-give), Miyavi wrote ﾂ紅 (kurenai = crimson), which again is another X Japan song.

So that's Weekend, Endless Rain and Kurenai. Three X songs, folks...I'd say this is most definitely his way of letting us know who he's working with. Yoshiki (X Japan leader and the creator of the super band featuring Gackt and Sugizo).

I just don't care about the band thing anymore... I'm over it. I really can't see it working well, but if it's his decision... it's his decision. Can't change that. Unfortunately my respect for the man lately has been faltering... Too many little things that have rubbed me competely the wrong way.

People were asking about the lyrics of the week, first off... it's very simple to look back a page or two, because they were there. The lyrics are Girls, Be ambitious. I still don't have the time (nor the willpower) to sit and analyze them. Who knows, maybe I'll feel up to it later.

Uhm... I mentioned going to the Dir en grey show on Friday (Feb 2nd) and if anyone's interested, I wrote a really long report in my livejournal here.

Eh? What do you mean, your respect is faltering? Your respect for Miyavi? And what's rubbing you the wrong way?
And I know what you mean, lately I haven't the time nor energy to do much, outside of rehearsal's and school work. So, I really haven't gotten to the song.
Wow, the show sounded awesome! I dunno if I'm going...if I can find a way to I will, I just have to make some plans.

Jou_sama I agree with you about that abdn thing... I mean Gackt and Miyavi are both vocalists... also Sugizo will be the lead guitar so I mean... Miyavi could only be a 2nd guitar... of course I know he may write lyrics and stuff... but I like hearing his voice and seeing his performances... so he should better be solo but it's only my opinion...

ì saw the 3nd picture of miyavi that Yoko_kisaragi send his hair looked soooo cute i loved it does someone got more pictures of him with that hairstyle its so damn cute. its the same hairstyle that he had when he singed ashita tenki ni naare live you can see it at youtube so pleas send the pictures if you have some

Well... it's hard to explain. I enjoy analyzing things, that includes people. Figuring out how a person works, and what goes on in their brain. Part of that involves the aura/energy/atmosphere a person gives off. Lately I've just been getting quite the negative vibe from Miyavi and it's starting to tick me off. I dunno =X

Yes, you must go see Diru. It's mandatory. For they friggin ROCK! \m/



Just a random thought. If he is joining Yoshiki's band... which is looking highly possible, how much of it was Miyavi's full-fledged agreement and how much of it was the intimidation of a high figure like Yoshiki?

hey what's happening? nobody's writing! come on this thread was on of the most active and now... Miyavi_lover I like that hair style the most too he's so cute with such hair

wow, about the translating journal thing, people you are great O__O
I never thought that there would be so many hidden hints in myv's journal entry, that's cool

and I would like to see the Band that they are going to do
we will see if it will work or not ^^

its nice that someone agrees with me devious ^^ i actually got 1 little picture of him with that hairstyle but i cant post pictures yet
but it will come soon i hope =3 i will die if i see a poster with miyavi and that hairstyle xD

what piccu are you talking about is you dont mind me asking?

Wow.

This thread is so dead. Sometimes I don't know why I bother anymore.
Oh that's right. To keep ignorant people in their place.


Moving on, two new Miyavi journal entries.
Because there's two, and because the second one is so long (... eheh), I'm only going to post the translation and not the original Japanese. If you want to see the original, go to his actual homepage (o-re-sa-ma.com).

Hey, Komiyavi-chan,

Today at a live concert by some really cool guys (+ a weird one)
as a sort of on the spot thing there was an amazing jam session

I needed to get rid of the frustration that builds up over a day of making music/composing
I had them let me join in

Furthermore
The session made me realize something that I lack,
and the atmosphere and exchange with the audience
reminded me of something I had forgotten


The live made me think ﾂ"This is neatﾂ"
Seeing everyone smile also made me think ﾂ"Neat!ﾂ"

I think from the bottom of my heart

Sorry, It's all so sudden
Love.


ﾂ／窶ｰﾃｫ

psﾂ；
I'll be visiting from Japan and Asia a bunch!
Do you want to visit the world, at any cost?!








I don't know what to think about this Vegas thing. (Though I do love the little "back hurts, *** hurts, stomach hurts" in that entry. It's nice to know the real Miyavi is still in there somewhere.) It's great for him, don't get me wrong! He's going to do a show here in the States! That's friggin' awesome!
... But I doubt I can go.

I doubt a lot of people I know would be able to go. This is on such sort notice, it's kind of crazy. I've heard that it's not actually on the 17th of February, but the actual date hasn't been confirmed. I guess the place messed up and put the wrong date. I don't know. This whole thing seems like a mess.

Whatever, I support the man 100%. I just hope people actually SHOW UP!

Wow. What do you mean by that?

But, omg. For the first time in a long while, Miyavi truly made me smile. His entries seemed as lively as they used to. I'm happy, truly. But, oh my a live? In America? Awesome! Too bad, I can't go. But, I do hope it turns out well. I'm hoping he does a east coast show next, somewhere where people 21 and under can enter.

But, oh crap! Package...I wonder if it could be forwarded to him in Cali. Damn! Why won't they pay me, I need to get this package going!

You're the only person of importance that actually posts here anymore. All the other Angels have ventured off. Now this place is packed with a bunch of newbies that don't know what they're talking about, yet consider themselves just as wise as the older members- Which I find horribly amusing.


I just hope this Vegas show turns into a full North American tour, like Diru 8D! That would be awesome. I mean, seeing Diru and Miyavi here in the States 8D!

Wait, package hasn't been sent yet? Why was I thinking you already sent it? *scratches head* Must be old age.
And it looks like by the time you get paid and send the package expess... it could've already gotten to him by regular mail XD!

I also post here often Lil Sis, please don't forget me....
This entrie is very good, fun... I like it ^___^
An d wow that's so great that he'll do a concert (or more I hope) in the US. I really hope that some of you could see him live in your own places. =)

aw the package is in stand by, I didn't knew, old age also, more than you, lol.
If you need more money I can send you some, even if I don't really have some for now XD, but it will take a long time to come in your place Broken Rose Ren. And yeah he must have it now with regular mail.....
I hope the package will follow him, or if you can have the adress where he stay in US it could cost less... *worry*

reita-kun look on page 367 and then the pictures that Yoko_Kisaragi.
on the 3th picture miyavi got a soo damn cute hairstyle im really looking for more pictures of him with that hairstyle =3 maybe you got some pictures of him with that hairstyle.. lets hope

hm yeah it was really amuusing journal entry especially with those "my but hurts" and so on
and about the old members... it sometimes happens that people lose interest... though it's a bit sad

I'm baaaak xP

Been busy with school work and stuff @__@

But YAY! Today I received my miyavi wallscroll



And =O He's gonna be in the US?! AGAIN?! ;__; It's so bad I'm not from the US... but I might actually be able to go if he would go somewhere like... Florida! xP Since it's the closest US country I have.

xD Miyavi's *** is hurting? *falls over laughing*
*insert joke about rubbing to make it better *

thank you thank you thank you ^^ i have send all the pictures too my mobile with bluetooth on that last picture people are laughing why are they laughing i mean isnt this the cutest boy you ever seen xD

I found the translation of the Japanese magazine from Asian finest.
Miyavi Half Japanese and Korean.
This is the translation from Japanese magazine, ][ROCK and READ][/ (I tried, but it isn't very good).This is not a full interview because the whole interview is very long! So I am just putting the parts about his heritage backgroud, since that's what most people are interested about. My friend asked me to translate, so that is what I am doing.
Here he shares his personal history. Starting with a surprising word: 3rd generation zainichi (Korean-Japanese), death of his senpai, and his suicidal thoughts when the band got dismembered.
Interviewer: You were born in Hyogo (兵庫)?
Miyavi: Today I want to talk about my past before I was born.
I: Then about your parents?
M: Yes, this is the first time I am mentioning, I am 3rd generation zainichi (Korean-Japanese). Looking at the bloodline, I am mixed. My father's side, grandfather and grandmother are from Jejo island, which is famous for tourist site. They were living their until they came to Japan.
I: Did you know this truth when you were little?
M: No, at first the questions brought up, but I forgot. But you know when relatives get married. My father had 8 siblings. And he is the first son, so he always had to attend wedding ceremonies. I remember when I went with him to the wedding, at the front door the last names were written in big letters. When I saw it, one side was written "Lee"(李家) and the other side had "Kim"(金家). So even though I was little, (laughs) I knew those last names weren't much seen in Japan. And when I was little, I used to eat jijime(Korean food? I don't know) and see jogori (Korean traditional dress). Although I didn't know much when I was little, I knew I was alittle different.
I: So even though you were born and raised in Japan, you felt your surrounding wasn't quite Japan you are saying?
M: Yes, I felt it. I recently found out that my family's last name is Lee (李). There is Bruce Lee (different chinese/kanji character), so I thought it was okay to have Lee as last name (laughs). My grandfather and grandmother lived in Jurubashi(鶴橋). I was born in Nisikujo (西九条).
I: So after you were born, did you move straight to Hyogo?
M: No, until first grade in elementary school I lived in Nisikujo. I was very popular at stores. My mother's side grandfather and grandmother lived near, so I went to play there and they always gave me 100yens. (laughs). Also, when I went to public bath, they always bought me fruit juice and small toys (laughs).
I: So the neighbors all thought you were cute?
M: Of course(laughs), blah blah The interview is quite long, so I will stop here... www
Miyavi also mentioned of his heritage (3rd generation Korean-Japanese) to Korean magazine GMV (2004). He said, "I am mixed, but I don't think that's important. What's the point of thinking about it? When I am writing music, I think about what's important to me. I know history/background is important, but there are more important things. I want to show/express good sides from both Japan and Korea.
