Yoshiki

Yurga - ahh sorry... I never know which one to check... this one usually seems more active and I check the male artists bord more often than groups... especially since I've been inactive for such a long time.

I liked Yoshiki's jewlry... and the mini piano... I would have loved to own that!

Talking of ridiculously over priced Yoshiki things my friend found some pages of his score signed on ebay and I can't remember how much they were going for but it was the kind of price you'd expect to own Yoshiki for!

molestthyguitarists- I'd love a hide plushie... I've been planning to own one for such a long time... but I still don't have one :'( ... my original plan was to get one to go in the back of my car for when we were road-tripping to Germany last year... but then I crashed my car so the plan fell through... and so did the plushie owning scheme.
I am, however, doing the road-trip this year... so I think it might be time to ebay plushies! :D
 
XD yeah i think you did...
the problem is... Yoshiki's pretty expensive. -_- and probably we would be charged extra for delivery... and he is quite fragile so we have to be careful...
 
Freshing new video with Yoshiki~

I really don;t understand japanese but i think
they were talking about Yoshiki's father~
In one part Yoshiki was nearly cry......
So sad part~
And in the end you can hear some music -
is this parst from new song(s)?
 
i hope soo.... awh poor dear Yoshiki... i wish i could hug him and hold him close... but he looks so fragile i am afraid i would break him... 😭
 
i hope soo.... awh poor dear Yoshiki... i wish i could hug him and hold him close... but he looks so fragile i am afraid i would break him... 😭
I agree, i wanna hug him, too~
And i don't know, maybe i am too crazy,
but i am listening this video sixth time~
And i am listening it now~ yea, not watching (I watched it
four times) but listening it~ even i don't understan nothing,
only some words, Yoshiki's voice somehow calms me~
And i can concentrate to my studies(tomorrow i will have a little exam)...
OMG, am i really that crazy????
 
no, you are not crazy. he has a very calming voice. i love hearing it also. like, a wave of peace washes over me when i hear him speak... he cant be as bad a singer as he claims, especially since hes spent almost his entire life around music... but we'll never find out cuz hes so shy... -_-"
then again we both may be crazy...
 
Some translations of that video i poted before~
All thanXs tu XFF~
""please forgive my bad English and typo.
I just read someone's translation in chinese and then translated it in English.
Actually, I don't really understand well, but, you will have an idea what he was talking about.


Yoshiki wants to share the same experience with those (I guess: for the people who lost their loved one by committing suicide)

Mid. January in Hong Kong:
10 years after, with the reunion, X Japan started the world tour in Hong Kong. X Japan is still very popular, everyone loves the smiling Yoshiki on the stage.

Yo: "when I think about the only grief in my life which can never cure, is the suicide of my father, well, how can I explain this feeling?"

In Yoshiki's home town (Chiba) The seaside is 10 mins walk from his home
Yo: " I used to go fishing here"
Question: what is your best memory?
Yo: " since I was here several times a week, I didn't have much feeling about this"
Q: you came here with your family?
Yo: "Yes, with my mother and brother"
Q: when something (bad/unhappy) happened, do you still come here?
Yo: Yes, although it's not really like some soap opera, but, it's really like this way.

His Dad has passed away when Yoshiki was 11 years old.
Yoshiki went back to his primary school.
Yo: oh, it"s here, I can still remember, the school is quite big. It doesn't change much, the building is still the old same. It was the old feeling.

Yo: I used to join a music group after school. Although it was the summer holiday, I still went back to school to practice. What was it, maybee trumpet ?? I can't really remember. After the practice, I went back home and saw my Dad laid (on the floor??) at home. I thought he was sleeping. But, only a triangle cloth was placed on his head. Just like this, I was so shocked. I even asked: why did he sleep in this way? At that moment, I lost my temper and cried.

Q: what is the reason you lost your temper?
Yo: I don't know, my family stopped me later. If (he) just took his life without consciousness, it only left a big question mark to the family. (we will) never know the true answer. (he) just walked away and left this question, then, the only way I can survive is to chase the answer to this question forever.

Afterward, no one talked with him about the death of his father.
His memory with his father is fishing, and, his Dad played the piano to him.

His Dad was 34 years old.

Q: with the sudden death of your Dad, how can (you) overcome the pain.
Yo: oh.. this pain cannot be overcame. The pain is still struggling in my heart. It pain will not cure when it was hurt in this way. you can never understand.

He suffers with the pain (one who can never understand this feeling without experienced it) and live until today.

Yo: because I am a musician, I am dependent on it. How about without music? to tell the truth, I cannot imagine how I can live without music.

the song "tears" was wrote with the memory with his father.

Yoshiki has invited 200 orphans to the Hong Kong concert. It was the first time Yoshiki has sent invitations. After the concert, he made a donation to the orphan organization.

Yo: mmm. (I) feel like why not to do something for the others?
how to say this? It's because of the sympathy towards my father and because of my pain. They understand what our family went through, it's really difficult to accept. then, (I) consider the ones who was left behind and think I can do something. Japan is a country with a very high suicide rate. (if I) want to do it, why not now than later? I am planning to establish a charitable foundation.

Although there is no concrete plan, the willing to help and support the orphans is stronger and stronger day by day.

Yo: when (I) plan to establish the charitable foundation, I think I just cannot push it. Anyway, I am a musician (a rock and roll one). it seems that they (when you put them together) are not too
appropriate. There is no necessary to change the luxury life style. No need to get the approval from everyone. Only myself is enough. I just think, it"s not voluntary, I just do it because I want to do so.

Yo: maybe some people think that it's hypocritical. But (I) just want to start to do somehing.

Back to the studio from the home town: this is the new X Japan song after one year. Yoshiki wants to write something about the courage of life. this is the first time he helped the other, and it's how he faces his own life."""

ALL credits to XFF~~
Thanks to all who reading this~
I hope i don't do useless work to post this info there~
 
eep thank you so much for this ^^ i am definitely going to buy the book and my appreciation of Yoshiki has gone up a thousandfold... the only grief that he cant cure?? does that mean he has made peace with hide's death? i hope so... i dunno, but for me death was always easy to accept and deal with and move on, something that has made most people think me rather heartless. but i believe in reincarnation, that nothing will really die, that nothing really didnt exist, nor will it not exist... i wonder... it would be interesting to talk to Yoshiki about these things... i think he would have many interesting things to say, and my only regret is that i wont be able to speak with him in his own language for quite a while... although english is not my native language, russian is (incidentally, i DO know where Lithuania is :D )
 
Don't you think this is a little bit painful theme to talk wth Yoshiki
abiyt that? Ok, maybe it depends on personalyti and character~
But i really want to talk with him~
Maybe not THAT big talks about reincarnation (even i believe in this)
but only say hello~ (Yoshiki: Hello, Yurga-chan, how are you doing?
Yurga : "melting" - ha ha ha~~~)

And i wanna that book too~
Even i don't understant japanese~
Or maybe there is possibility that Yoshiki realease it in english, too?

((So wonderful - you are russian?
tha means we are kind a neighbours~~))
 
i dont live in Russia anymore, and barely speak the language, but i will be going back for a while maybe this summer, or maybe next january... i have some cousins in Lithuania but i don't exactly know where because they are quite distant relatives and we are not on the best terms... :( but we are kind of... cool, isn't it?? ^^

i guess i would like to talk to him about that just to know what he says from a philosophical point of view... i would like to, but it probably will be painful, so i'd rather avoid causing him pain... i did dream twice that me and my friends were on a road trip and we went to LA and we were in traffic, and we were headbanging to Standing Sex, when we realised Yoshiki was in the next car... we were quite embarassed but remembered to do the X thing anyway... and he was very sweet about it and stuff and we got to talking about music... OMG that is like the biggest thing i would like to talk to him about... i am thinking of taking up drumming, i think i might be some good at it... im growing my hair out too, and it is the same colour as Yoshiki's... but i kinda lil bit think i resemble hide sometimes... mb i am just fooling myself, but it is something about my facial expressions...
 
Love the pictures.
I am sooo sick of concerts. Always with problems.
I noticed that im too Violet UK addict. VUK-R play count is 791 with less than 2 months. But bad thing is that, i don't listen VUK and X Japan songs anymore that much as before. I am totally addicted to the Emilie Autumn at the moment because of the concert.
 
Ok,as i see no one are interested in Yoshiki's photo
so maybe you will be interested in this?



I am so looking forward for this~

Sorry I haven't been around this thread for a while, *feeling ashamed really*
damn mivs steeling all my attention like that ...
... but now I'm back with revenge on all threads and reading up on all that I've missed, should take a while though.
Lovely sexy Yoshiki pictures and I'll also going to watch all these vids Thank you Yurga 👍:-)
Also thanks molest... for the latest pixx, love ´em !

//Edit, after watching the first video *gosh* he can speak English 👍//
