Yoshiki

Meh...it'll get here when it gets here. I'm not really bursting with anticipation for it. I just hope the album rocks something fierce when it does finally arrive.
 
Well, I have faith that it'll be the best thing since sliced bread. I do really like what I've heard so far even though "Sex and Religion" is annoyingly just shy of brilliance. I mean, the lyrics are just wow but the arrangement...I've never been a big fan of inverted pieces anyway (aka verse taking musical importance over the chorus in manner of chorus more often than not being anti-climatic) and one of the only songs done that way that I like is HYDE's "Masquerade." And the chick's voice, though technically fantastic, has no soul. But seriously, those lyrics can almost make up for anything. And really, my big issue (the arrangement) has nothing to do with execution, it's done very well, it's just not a style I like.
 
I really wanna hear the full-length ver. of "Mary Mona Lisa" it sounds very promising. Maybe it'll be a single.
 
Yeah, I'm a Yoshiki nerd so I check his myspace and Violet UK's myspace every day. Therefore I'm constantly hearing "Mary Mona Lisa", at least, the sample that's up.
 
when did the thread become so.. so.. gah i dunno.

anyway i just wanted to say that i respect your
opinions, each and every one of them. and that i'm
not going to argue about them. this forum is about
opinions and bringing them up to see if someone agrees
or disagrees with you. and one of the main purposes
is that we learn something new from here. i know i did ^^
 
I hope VUK is released soon, it's been sooooo long since that project has been going hasn't it? I can't wait to hear it!
 
aww thank you very much for the vids

*goes to watch all of them*

i can finally see some videos now that firefox is back on action
 
this thread has become deadd yet again..=.=
well, if anyone's actually still here
ive read through this whole thread and wow...
its like... having major pms or something
major mood swings, if no one's offened by that
anyone know when VUK is actually coming out?
cant wait, but i dont wanna expect too high
yoshiki's just not yoshiki anymore, summarizing what has been said throughout this thread...
 
. But personally, I'm going to believe what the artists themselves say more then what a fan who I don't trust claims to be true.
I have to agree with you on that one. I dont know if Sakevi is telling the truth or not even though the things he said makes sense but my point is that there ARE many people out there who claim to know this or that person and they are just full of it. Basically they have to much spare time for their own good so they post things on the net claiming that they are practically blood related with that artist...
It's good to be critical!
 

Dude, you are a lawyer right? Then you should be used to trying to convince people you are right and handling different conflicts and opinions, you are not gonna let something like this bring you down right?!
Everybody has their own opinion, that is their human right and you said it yourself that you have met people who claim to know something and it turned out they knew absolutely nothing so you can't blaim for example Hide_is_my_antidrug for being critical.
Anyway, to sum this up. STOP BEING A BABY AND GET BACK ON THE FORUM!!
;-)
 

Hahahaha, I didn't believe my friend when she told me that someone was talking about me being a lawyer in this threat =P

- Of course I'm used to that, but it only happens when I'm working (as a lawyer or politics) not in my social life or posting around internet.

- Bring me down?? naaaah, I just prefer to keep all that information for me and my friends, and not waste it with people that in the end won't believe me.

- I'm back in the forum... I'm not a baby anymore??

And I'm thinking about this:

I'm going to believe what the artists themselves say more then what a fan who I don't trust claims to be true

Hmm, should we believe Britney Spears when she says that she is sorry to be without panties on streets???

It's easy for people to show up and "claim" that they're saying the true (as you said), but it's EASIER for the artist to come up with a ridiculous speech and make fans believe whatever they want... just as your precious Yoshiki Hayashi does

By the way, thanks for the people who sent PM to me!!
 
Well, you seem like a person who knows what he is talking about so therefore your task is to spread information to others, and then it is up to those people to decide if they want to believe you or not. You can't force someone into believing. You mentioned Toshi and the rumour that he joind a cult etc and that is what you think is the truth until you are proven wrong. That story is posted EVERYWHERE on the net so of course it becomes the official reason to us who haven't read his book. (so yes, I'm one of them who believed in that, + I never liked him in the first place so the idea that he went and and joined some weird cult suited me )
So; Keep telling us what's going on with our beloved X..and welcome back to the forum.
 
Heeeeeyyyy!!! Look who's finally back! I'm really glad to see you around here again Sakevi!
 
i know what you mean
toshi was there and was cool but never up on my list of favs. and so the idea of him running away onto join a cult was okay with me =P
ah well, looks like im disappointed, not that i really am.
so... what is our dearest yo-chan up to today?

(oh, and i showed my friend this whole thread and shes highly disturbed at the x condom part XD)
 

Well, when you analyze this whole thing, you can see that the history of the "cult" was spread all around by annoyed X fangirls who were angry because they disbanded... whose fault was it?? of course: Toshi.

After all, there are lots of backstage histories, like disagreements among band manager and band members managers: "X Japan is first... so when can they play together??... oooh he can't tour on those dates... they should play every new year's eve... hmmm well..."

Damn, X Japan disband was waaaay before 1997... they were good actors!!

Hey, thanks a lot it's nice to see you again too
 

I know that there was truble in the band already when Taiji was in it.
Yoshiki was in charge and he let everyone know it, he is a perfectionist/big individualist but he was smart enough to understand that if they weren't there X probably wouldn't have been so big but I believe that a big part of their succes is thanks to Yoshiki. He was stubborn and refused to make comprimises (for better and for worse, I wish that he would have comprimised with Taiji, I like-d him..) and that made sure that he got what he wanted.
Fame.

What I know about Toshi (aside from the cult thing ) is that he felt that Yoshiki was suffocating his "music vision".. He wasn't alowed to do really what he wanted, he didn't have that much to say. Only hide seemed to get his point across - to a limit.

Yoshiki... If you think about him and that he maybe didn't treat them as good as he should have then normally you would hate that type of person but I don't know... I can't help but to love him. He is my favorite member. hide was my fav. in the beginning but as time went Yoshiki cought my attention more and more.. I still love hide and I'm quite fond of Taiji but there is something about that Yoshiki
 
yoshiki's just not yoshiki anymore, summarizing what has been said throughout this thread...

well.. he is getting old... that might be a factor
But I think that since he has been through so much.. Things like that don't leave you neutral, his past has changed him.
 
^ yesh, age, it catches up on all of us, unfortunately. -solemnly shakes head-

at the beginning, i loved yoshiki. and then hide, and then i learned about taiji, so i was all like TAIJI!!! but its always yoshiki and then hide. i dont know though, my opinion could have changed if i had listened to them from the beginning... i only got introduced in like, this september =(
and plus, yoshiki's the one out there that keeps doing stuff. living and acting in america might also be a big factor.
