  • Salyu x Salyu – Color Magic~

    salyu x salyu had a new song out? Titled Color Magic (カラーマジック, or the KATAKANA~ pronunciation KARA~ MAJIKKU — you know Katakana baffles me), it was included in NHK’s Design Ah (デザインあ), but you know it would be the perfect companion song to 6COLORS.

    The song (if my Japanese is correct) will be included in the soundtrack of the show to be released on January 23rd.

    They also have an awesome (interactive) song titled Ah’s Song (「あ」のうた).


  • Toyota vs. Mercedes – FIGHT!

    So… back in April, Toyota released a series of animated short (commercials) called PES: Peace Eco Smile, which followed an alien who fell in love with an earthling, and at the same time showing you the wonderful things about their cars. The animation was in charge of Studio 4C and it looked pretty darn awesome [watch all the clips here].

    Turns out Mercedes Benz also has a animated short commercial called Next A-Class, which follows a girl who is after the perfect bowl of ramen and gets two other guys to get on the mission…

  • I’ll never let you part for you’re always in my heart

    I remember the feeling when MJ passed away. Within the family, it’s common to think that you could not possibly cry for people you’ve never met, and that’s true most of the times. I don’t know anyone personally that cried when MJ passed, but I remember the day of the memorial concert, when Jennifer Hudson performed Will You Be There [1]… it wasn’t her performance, it was the moment when Michael does her spoken monologue with that broken voice- I didn’t break down, but I did share a few hazy looks with my TV.

    In our darkest hour
    In my deepest despair
    Will you still care?
    Will you be there?
    In my trials
    And my tribulations
    Through our doubts
    And frustrations
    In my violence
    In my turbulence
    Through my fear
    And my confessions
    In my anguish and my pain
    Through my joy and my sorrow
    In the promise of another tomorrow
    I’ll never let you part
    For you’re always in my heart


  • Ai shi Amor, Señorita, Buenos Días~

    I’mma be loving this song, which has been included in Crowd’s latest album Guitar (有吉他的流行歌曲, complete title: Pop Songs with Guitar), strangely titled: One Bento Box (一個便當), even though the official name is simply Bian Dang x)

    I’ve always loved that he uses — rather random — Spanish in his songs.


  • Yu Aoi, Ichiro, Meat & Kirin

    I don’t really follow baseball, but that time I got to watch the World Series by chance, I ended up being an Ichiro fan, so I love this commercial. xD And I love that Yu-chan’s faster than him when snatching meat.

    Apparently they did a series, but you never know with these commercials any longer. They go PUFF all the time, even those that seem legit uploads.


  • Joanie, Hit me with your Best Shot

    While finally watching Joan Crawford’s Queen Bee, I got to watch the finest ‘OMG-I-Can’t-Believe-How-Much-It-Hurts’ on-screen slap EVER [1], even more epic than the whoop-ass that Veda got on Mildred Pierce. It was jaw-droppingly fascinating. xD

    Then I found this compilation and I died laughing.

    Makes me want to watch all her filmography again… but then I remind myself that I’ve still got Crawford movies to watch, so I can’t re-watch the films I own. I must complete my task at hand.


  • We Meet Again, Shane

    I haven’t seen you in so long, and yes… what is it about you?

    It is what it is…


  • Faces: 105 of Cinema’s Most Beautiful Close-Ups

    After some flame from their compilation of 135 Shots That Will Restore Your Faith in Cinema [1], Flavorwire is back with a new compilation~~~ this time around focusing on faces, their emotions and their beauty… to relative success. I don’t think I could fault them… I had enough with Wong Kar Wai (included multiple times), multiple Zhang Yimou shots (and a double appearance of Gong Li to boot!), there was Park Chan Wook, Guillermo del Toro, Leslie Cheung’s face.

    It was a thing of beauty.

    The only face I could possibly suggest would have been Greta Garbo’s last shot on Queen Christina, but I’m content.


  • I’ve Been Thinking About Yu…

    I haven’t actively looked for Yu Aoi fan-made videos in a long time, but here we go~ I hope this one doesn’t get deleted, coz we’ve been suffering from that a lot lately. Regular Yu Aoi film footage applies, with nice additions of Tamatama, and Otouto… though, Raiou would have been nice to have.


  • BEG Tonight 37.2C Concert Tease

    Title: 2012 Brown Eyed Girls Tonight 37.2°C Concert – in Seoul
    Date: 9PM, December 24th & 25th, 2012
    Venue: Millennium Hall, Central City
    Ticket Price: \110,000 (VAT included) / All standing
    Age rate: 19 and older
    Ticket Open: 6th November, 2012

    I am mad excited about this concert, and mad jealous about it, because 1. Dude, it’s in Korea. I don’t do that type of tourism. xD 2. Chances of BEG actually stopping by Peru are close to null.

    There are a number of reasons I’m excited for this… the main one being: it’s Brown Eyed Girls. Now, they’re all grown up and comfortable with themselves and this whole concert concept centers on the temperature of 37.2C which is the temperature the body reaches during the loveeeeee motion. I’m glad for them, that they get to play around with that.

    The next best thing to actually being there for the Seoul concert, other than a concert in Lima of course ;P, would be a Blu-ray release (preferably) but I would settle for a DVD if they must.
