Yeah, no use trying to look for the second podcast, I already did enough of that... O_O and how's receiving your first photobook uninteresting? I demand photos ^_^ Hum, and a Yuuko one... That might be kinda rare, when was it released, any idea? Oh, about the only Yuuko song I know by name. This and Kuyashi Namida Porori. There were two other ones I liked, whatever their names. I started travelling every weekend this year, about 2 and a half hours, since I've moved cities to study and all, and I usually listen to all the dozens of albums I've collected and never looked at... Which includes most H!P soloists. But since I just listen to the whole album in my mp3, I never see the names. These travels made me like Yuuko and Tanpopo way more, just to say two. And now the song just ended.
Yup, awesome song. Hum, I have my whole collection converted to .ogg, between 60~180kbps, sounds pretty good. I guess ogg rules. Or maybe because my "sound system", if you can call it that, is too simple for me to notice the difference. Or maybe I'm just a bad listener. Whatever. LoL, I'll change my nick to Beethoven then, if that's such good marketing =P Yup, too lazy to shave. I completely know how you feel. Yeah, I can see you like Behemoth, it's the next artist according to the playlist over there. By the way, I guess this is a good chance to turn off the speakers and change to headphones, I've a feeling mommy wouldn't like Behemoth.
...
didn't understand a word.
Half an hour's good, like an H!P radio program. I remember the ones I saw were about 40 min, which isn't much different... Slow paced talking is good, I can understand it. Better than that Behemoth song... O_O HERETIC! GO PLAY NOW! Yup, that's the spirit. You have to play FFVI and VII, that's unnegotiable. Yeah, I never liked Aerith too. But I also don't care about Tifa, I'm a Yuffie fanboy. I think MorningBerryz played it too.
Hum... Yeah, to just start playing your own live rendition of Ikimono Gakari doesn't really work with the metalhead podcast image, especially if you really do suck at it. But it'd be pretty entertaining. But I guess that's asking too much.
LoL, I agree with you, Uta Doki! was waaaay better. I saw about five Berikyuus, and I didn't like it. And I still don't care enough about any of the Kids to be motivated to go and catch up with them. I like their music but I don't care that much for the idols themselves. I like Maimi, and Airi, and Momoko, but in a whole different level than any of the musumes... It's probably just unfamiliarity; nothing the Kids have participated in until now can beat all the great stuff I've seen from the Momusu girls, both in H!M and all the other programs. At least to me.
Yeah, the hint about the second podcast was directed more at everyone else aside from you, hehe. :P Well, receiving it was cool for me but maybe not that exciting for everyone else... The photobook was released in either August or September of 2001, so it's an oldie! It's a good photobook, especially if you're a fan of Yuko like me. :) It's great you've started liking her and Tanpopo more! Especially older Tanpopo I feel is very underappreciated these days.
I never got into ogg. I've always been an mp3 man myself, and I like it. So many memories with mp3's, I don't ever want to change! :D Yeah, if you change your nick to Beethoven, then you'll be my favorite blogger instead. :)
Haha, I love how you changed from speakers to headphones just for Behemoth. I'm glad you didn't skip the song though, that's nice of you. :) I always use headphones myself so I never change listening systems like that, but man, I guess it's because I've just been listening to metal for so long that my parents have gotten used to it, but if I was still actively using speakers and had to listen to some j-pop... I feel the same way you do about Behemoth; I'd be afraid of my mom's opinion so I'd definitely have to change to headphones, haha. I guess to me it would be more awkward for my mom to confuse me as a homosexual more so than for a satanist or whatever, hahaha. Moms can be real scary when it comes to music, eh?!
Don't worry about not understanding a word of it; surely you're not alone with that problem. :) It's good that the slow paced talking is no problem for you. I can see how it'd annoy some people, but hey, that's just how I talk for some reason. I don't even know why. I think I'd wanna work on that a little... Yuffie?! Well, that's cool I guess, it's better than being an Aeris fanboy! Still though, it's best to be a Tifa fan I think. It's the most rewarding!
Yeah... it'd be too risky to do something like that live. Well, I probably wouldn't do the WORST possible rendition of it possible, but... yeah. I guess I could do something like that sometime, but pre-recorded. That way I can pretty it up some and make it better. Yeah. It's all about getting the chance to do a shitload of takes. That way I'd be able to do something of acceptable quality!
Yep yep, I totally agree with you on everything you said in your last paragraph. I can only hope I'll start caring more about the Kids later..
