last night i was just randomly flicking through the tv channels cause saturdays has the most boring shows of the week when i came across the japan video music awards 2009 on mtv china HAHA.
i was trying to get videos of the award show a few weeks back but to no avail so i was like damndamndamn excited when i came across it half an hour into the show.
so i sat patiently through some of the bad moments of the award show: insane japanese rockers, high pitched screaming female presenters and awkward moments between foreign performers and japanese hosts and finally remioromen came on!!!!!!!!!!
they were the second last performers, just before the the black eyed peas.
they performed sakura <3
the graphics were super gorgeous i must say <3
we seem to have similar tastes when it comes to colour and design schemes
but anyway the crowd was awesome really i so wish i was there!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and gosh the lyrics just came pouring out of my mouth without me realising cause i normally suck at foreign languages i cant seem to remember the lyrics.
but the lyrics are so sweet so i guess it left a deep impression on me.
i would say the best performances that night were remioromen, katy perry and black eyed peas.
they got the crowd absolutely high, clapping and waving away, which is what japanese audiences always do.
they have synchronised sideway waving, clapping and like back and forward arm movements in the air or something.
ok sorry im very bad at describing :x
but it makes me feel so happy when i see them do that cause i think its a very polite way of expressing that the crowd enjoys the music.
but they only do it during upbeat music and during ballads they will listen quietly and maybe sing along and only clap at the end.
just came across the video clip of their vma performance on youtube!
gosh its damn hard to find japanese things on youtube cause they have fewer foreigner followers as compared to the korean industry or something.
all the japanese videos are in japanese so its damn hard :(
but damn it embedding has been disabled so i cant put it up here for my enjoyment :(
the other day when i was with qian i also dropped by heeren hmv to find the remioroment compilation album that ive been looking for but couldnt find at the citylink mall branch.
when i saw the cover i was like AHHHHHHHHH SINGAPORE ACTUALLY HAS IT OMG! <3
and then i saw the price and it was 81 bucks.
WTH SERIOUSLY :(
damn it i hate it when its imported from japan so its more expensive and there isnt going to be an asian version cause remioromen does not have that level of international popularity :(
ok gosh i must stop HAHA.
