Ohmiya ♥ Arashi maniac

Its been a while since I wrote here..
many arashi-goto..too many to catch up.
the 10th anniversary tour<- for which 90% I couldnt be able to go
the best album<-which we all love the Arashi's selection disc XD
new single released

about the figures of the new single.
Its not as great as we all wanted it to be
but still, its good. As long as it passes 30k, we're all good
=)
tohoshinki..I dont know what to say, but..i know they're good, but for me, they're just not good enough to beat any Johnny's group. I mean, the effort they made might be similar to Johnnys' artists, just that I think they still have a long way before DOME. yet they're holding Dome con this weekend. and with DOME special edition of their new single, which could be well a threat to Arashi's everything.
minna-san, let's pray!

Limited edition:


Regular edition:


OH-MY-
Perfect!!
this single is gonna be so perfect.
the combination is perfect.
the jackets are perfect.
now left the pv..even if it's just an average one, it still makes the whole thing perfect.

have been looping Everything and Season for like a day already.
just reminded me of how perfect this combination is.
=)
you can listen to them at anytime, any occasions.
like for today, it was rainy and it sounds perfect.
if its a sunny day, it still sounds perfect.
this is gonna be a huge song for Arashi.
i think, and I hope.

just because this single is going to be released as a 2-version one
doesnt mean that it will sell less than the previous double A single
cos personally, I now think this is one of their best songs ever.
like compare to subarashiki sekai XD
but yea you know what I mean.
a song that you can keep listening no matter how the era changes.

plus, its up-lifting. and cheering.

now i just wonder how they're going to perform this song.
I've been imaginating a Love-so-sweet like performance
like simple dance, not just like movement of ashita no kioku or beautiful days.
perhaps Happiness?

Oh*My*God
this song is perfect!
PERFECT with season as the single's b-side!!
Ohchan's solo towards the end is truly 素晴らし
and I love Nino's solo line so much, that the bg music goes mute
how can you not love nino's naked voice(haha just reference to gakki's)
actually i love everyone's solo, even matsujun's and aiba's XD
sho-kun's is a bit -are- at first, but the え of 抱え he sang was like heaven!!
I love him using his fake-innocent voice to sing!!
anyway* i love the song as a whole.
i love this song more because its sung by arashi.


通り雨が近づく町の匂いは切なくて
アスファルトに残した影はいつもと違って見えた
変わり続ける空は揺れる心を写す様に
足早に世界は周り続けてる

赤から青に変わるシグナル
戻る事の出来ない旅の途中で
明日を信じて進みたい
この夕立の中で一人
振り返り立ち止まる事もなるけど
何も戻れはしない

雨上がりの窓から見える夕暮れのひまわり
夕焼けに止められて朝日を待ち続けているんだ<-thats nino naked voice line
何が大切なのか時に見失いそうだけど
譲れない思いを抱え歩いて行く

鮮やかな青に染められた
未来は果てしない夢を描いたら
乾いた心潤して
限られたこの時の中で
強く胸に思いを刻み込んだら
陽はまた昇って行く

この長い坂を越える時
その先に何が見えた時でも I ohchan!
後悔はしたくない光灯し続ける明日を照らして

赤から青に変わるシグナル
戻る事の出来ない旅の途中で
明日を信じて進みたい

走れ走れ夢に手を伸ばすのさぁ
叫べ叫べ声が続く限り
心の感じるままに

I am gonna try to make this place a lil less random.
=D
first of all I am gonna post the Arashi sales-figure here.
systematically.

Ashita no Kioku/Crazy Moon~Kimi.wa.Muteki~ 5/27 release
Day1: 230,022
Day2: 130,905
Day3: *45,413
Day4: *24,544
Day5: *30,694
Day6: *27,203
-------------
Total(x1.028): 502,487

The first day sale was vigorous. too vigorous I'd say that a lot of ppl didnt expect.
but then the following days, wed and thur, the figures are less than that of Believe.
to compare this single with Truth (which had got appx same strength of tie-ups with ashita no kioku)
Ashita no Kioku definitely performed better for the first 2 day
but about 5000 copies less on the 3rd day.

I love this single, but I love Believe as well.
cannot literally pick one between.
=D as long as they're ranked 1st and 2nd in the yearly chart
I am satisfied XD
