嵐１０年ぶり全員でドラマ「最後の約束」
人気グループ、嵐が来年新春放送のフジテレビ系スペシャルドラマ「最後の約束」で１０年ぶりに５人フルメンバーの共演を果たすことが１０日、分かった。
ビル占領事件にたまたま居合わせた５人が、予想不可能な事態に立ち向かうヒューマンサスペンス。リーダーの大野智（２８）、櫻井翔（２７）、相葉雅紀 （２６）、二宮和也（２６）、松本潤（２６）がそろうドラマは、デビュー直後の９９年に放送された同局系「Ｖの嵐」以来。今回のドラマのために撮影された ポスターは１０年の成長を感じさせるオトナの雰囲気だ。
最近は単独でドラマ、映画、舞台に出演し、それぞれの演技力が高い評価を受けてい るほか、グループでのバラエティー番組は老若男女に人気。先月２８日発売のＤＶＤ「Ａｌｌ ｔｈｅ ＢＥＳＴ！ １９９９－２００９」がこの日までに音楽 ＤＶＤ史上初の５０万枚を突破するなど飛ぶ鳥を落とす勢い。
「１０年分の経験と想いを大切にしながら、お芝居をしたい」と大野、松本は「若干恥ずかしさもありますが…（笑）、５人そろって撮影する日が今から楽しみ」と話している。
I continue my discussion about the brillant money-making strategies that many tv stations have. Upon seeing how popular our Arashi is - really, it's not hard to miss, with them making news every other days on Oricons and Con reports - the brilliant FujiTV decided, "I must get my share of the cake!". And I'm thankful for that, just that with so all five of them in one drama, where will the spotlight fall? Who will be the lead and who will take the supporting role? For it's quite difficult to give everyone an equal part. It being a special drama, I suppose it'll be a short one? *shrugs* My bet is, Nino and Ohno/Jun as lead and the rest as supports. Whatever the case, this is something I will definitely watch. Oh the goodness of all five boys squeezed into one small tvbox.
Ok I take back my previous words of My Girl being Arashi's usual fare. No wait. I'm perfectly fine with Arashi's usual fare. I'm in love with Arashi's usual fare. Their attempts at different styles ae good too but no matter what, Arashi's defined by their usual fare of warmth and sense of thanks.
I finally watched the PV! Had wanted to download it but my HD's almost full and don't have space to spare! =( It's strange but my heart soured while watching the PV....when Aiba discovered the letter from their mom saying she will continue to look over them from that house. And then the boys decided not to move out and to stay with their mom...Touching! Add the melody to it and you get a potent mix of Arashi goodness! But I felt that Aiba's role there should be taken over by maybe Nino or Jun...Aiba should be the excited one! lol
I refused to be spoilt by boys our via radioshows this time round.
And I'm glad I decided so.
Just listened to the cd and....my gosh. I shuffled the songs and the first one that came up was
スーパーフレッシュ Super fresh.
Super fresh, just like them, who's always fresh and brings us new feelings and ideas.
The song itself is superfresh! I love love love the melody. It didn't catch me right away, but there were bits of it that made the song different from others...it's not the type which you can roughly guess how the melody for a particular line will end, as is possible with many pop songs. It's so addictive! And such a light, happy feeling....in fact, when I shut my eyes I can imagine us on a boundless grassland, with flowers and butterflies all around. Everyone's smiling, just smiling. Is this supposed to be a fuyu song? It feels spring to me. And surprisingly, it felt like a korean pop to me...
The next song that caught me was the instrumental of
時計じかけのアンブレラ.
LOL I can imagine them bull-fighting in this.....latin-y piece. I really love the instrumental for this! I listened to the actual song later and while I liked it as well, somehow I just prefer the instru more.
And next up was the title track
マイガール
Surprisingly, it didn't really stick. It's all very Arashi...the usual style. Btw, I've only watched ep of My Girl....I'm wondering if I should continue...hmmmm
Gf just came back from Hong Kong and he bought me these!
Although I've got them all (the LE ones), I'm still very happy! But they came a bit too late because I had alreayd opened my Japan version ones. ARGH Shouldn't have done so...aniwaes, these are HK, REs. One good news, because my 5x10 is the LE one, so now I have the RE too! And the hidden track yay!!
He said these are all that's available of Arashi in the store. YAY! Arashi IS doing well ne.
Oh, and my stamps arrived! Will be sending letters to the radio shows using these stamps!
Aniwaes, I'm currently scouting for friends to go to SS501's con together! Anyone interested??
I'm back! But with tons of work to catch up and not enough sleep!
Will post more about my dream come true when I've got time...won't be a detailed con report though, and I'm sure there're alot good ones out there! Can't wait to catch up and read.
But aniwaes, I did something illegal....and...I'll share this really kawaii part with you guys. =)
And can you imagine spending over a thousand dollars on photos? =/
I might be wrong but....I've never seen such high scores in VSArashi!! Chinen and Yamada CAN jump. No wonder they're in Hey!Say!Jump! Yappari Johnnys da... Aniwaes, here are what I enjoyed:
- Sho bringing in Chinen's love for riida and teasing riida about the sticker on his hp, so naturally
- Riida finally admiting to the sticker!
- Arashi pleading with Yamada to let them add one player during the Jumping Shooter
- Riida begging them, on his knees!!!!!!!!
- Nino's look when he lost the Rolling Coin Tower....he looked so pissed off with himself! I'm DoS, I know.
- And then riida tried to cheer him up!!! OMG "ニノ！ヘコむな。何の心配もないから。"
He called him Nino!!! Without san or anything!
Nino must have be glad! Riida is his and his aloneeeeee. lol you can see him smiling slightly when riida spoke ne!
Riida is the best riida ever!- Chinen vs Riida in Falling Pipes! Was it arranged on purpose?
- Riida begging Chinen AGAIN.
How much does he love his team (or was it just for fun, for effect?) that he does everything he can to win for them?- Chinen testing Riida's trust in him! He did choose 1 and 2 ne!
- Riida threatening Chinen to delete his email add!!!!!!
KYAAA their relationship must be really good for him to do this ne. And Riida does know Chinen's weakness for him!- Nino calling Ohno nasty for the threat! Nino wants a part in everything ne. Even the teasing!
- Arashi teasing Jun when it was his turn!!! Lol Aiba even used honorifics!!!
- Jun making a dig at Riida for using his relationship with Chinen! Oh Jun, you....how can you say that of Riida?!
- Yamada saying Jun's not easy to confront and then Jun went "It's ok, I'm not scary..." To that, Yamada said, "It's really scary!"
Jun! What have you done to my dear Yamada??- Yamada teasing Jun about him always going topless in cons! Haha he spoke on my behalf!
- Demo, he failed to distract Jun!! YAY! Double catch!! I'm DoS I'm DoS! I felt so good watching Jun smile and Yamada with that shocked look on his face!
- Then the other members 'prayed' to Jun. o.O
- Yamada asking Aiba if he chose 1 and 2. Are they really close to each other? Such that Yamada knew Aiba's habits and is testing to see his reaction when he gives the answer...like in Liar Game?
- Jun asked Aiba to shut his eyes! Meaning Jun knows him as well ne.
- Great, I confirm my statement about me being DoS. I was squeeling when Yamada failed to catch any pipes!
- Confrontation between Nino and Chinen!
OMG! When Chinen seemed hesitant about going against Nino, Nino immediately, naturally, instinctively said, "Because of riida?"- Jun being such a fanservice dude by asking Riida to repeat Aiba's suggestion to Chinen, to which Chinen followed immediately.
- Nino using the game to interrograte Chinen!
- How dare Chinen say that Nino is sly? XP Though he is ne.
- Riida apologising to Chinen for the threat. Yasashii na!
Conclusion:
BRING MORE JOHNNYS TO VSARASHI!
I know everyone has been posting them, but I need them for my own record. All info from Johnny's net.
Well, I think I'm going to get the goods on 28th, since they sell all the way till after the con even. Then I won't have to squeeze with all the people on 29th. And if I regret not buying something, I can still buy it on 29th or 30th ne. Gosh...mini uchiwas in the kids' line? Why is there a kids' line even? I count as a kid ne! LOL

Adobe Audition?
Does anyone have it?
Or does anyone know how to remove the vocals from 5x10?
I tried the usual methods but it didn't work too well....
It's for the 10th anniversary thing I mentioned yesterday...or is anyone confident of playing the song on piano? That would be best!!
Pm me ne ^_^
Lol..was just surfing around to look for shops that sell uchiwa materials, and I found this shop called Tokyu Hands Goods. Checking out the access map, I caught sight of "Ohno Building" and "Ninomiya Building". On closer inspection, I found the rest too!! Arashi related buildings! haha random.
Alright now I just need to recall where in the world I saw the uchiwa backing in Singapore!
Lyrics from here, yet another touching and tear-onducing song, despite it not being officially released.
出会って数年 あれは偶然
The years since we met was all a coincidence
泣きもするね 気付けば10年
We've even cried, by the time we noticed it's been 10 years
空に舞い上がっていく風船
The balloon that rises up into the sky
花奢な五人で乗り込む揺れる船
The swaying ship that we luxuriously boarded
ただ笑うとこ
Simply laughing
きっと夢が叶うとこ
For sure making dreams come true
そう言い聞かせてた頃、過去も
Yes, that period when we were told what to do, our past too
今胸にまとう
It's all stored away in our hearts
焦り 不安 憤り
Impatience, unease, resentment
ばっかなんか感じていた日々もあったな
There were days where we felt nothing but that too
でもあなたがいてくれたから
But because you were there for us
その笑顔暖かったから
Because those smiles brought us warmth
歩いて来れたんだね
We were able to get to this point
横に並び掴んだ手
Your hand that grasped ours at the sides
このすこした時間さえって
This period of time that had passed with you
なんかね 今はまだただ照れるね
For some reason, we're still a bit shy
体に風を集めた僕ら支えきれない悲しみも
The winds that gathered inside us, the sadness that we couldn't support too
あなたがいたから 笑顔にできた
It was because you were there that we were able to smile
無敵に奏でた 不協和音は
The unrivaled dissonance that we used to play
いろんな世界を見てきたんだ
Saw all these different worlds
気がつけばいつの間にかそれが
By the time we noticed, somewhere along the way
もう 僕らになってた
That had already turned into us
本気で泣いて（すごした時間は沢山の愛の）
We genuinely cried (The time that had passed was full of love)
本気で笑って（言葉にしかもうほんとに何もないの）
We genuinely laughed (We really have nothing else left but words)
本気で悩んで（向かい起こせと再度）
We genuinely worried (Let's face forward once again)
本気で生きて（重ねた分のでっかい愛を）
We genuinely lived (With this large accumulated portion of love)
今がある 胸をはれる
And now, we can stand tall with pride
一歩一歩 近い道などないなら
One step at a time, if there are no roads close by
信じる道をいくしかないから
We can only take the road we believe in
もしもあなたが泣いたら
If you ever shed tears
ここでまた会おうよ
We'll meet you here again
この愛変らずさ 奴らからただ愛を送る（Yeah）
This love will never change, we'll send you nothing but love (Yeah)
ともに望む未来という for you（Yeah）
And wish for the future together, for you (Yeah)
先の山は風で超えれ 飛べる
Surpass the mountain ahead with the wind, fly
僕らの色で辺り染める
We'll dye the surroundings with our colours
一人ぽっちで覘いた空を
The sky that we gazed up at by ourselves
あなたも見ているのかな
Were you looking at it too?
なら歌うよ 空に向かって
Sing if you have then, face the sky
その力の限り
With everything you've got
本気で泣いて（すごした時間は沢山の愛の）
We genuinely cried (The time that had passed was full of love)
本気で笑って（言葉にしかもうほんとに何もないの）
We genuinely laughed (We really have nothing else left but words)
本気で悩んで（向かい起こせと再度）
We genuinely worried (Let's face forward once again)
本気で生きて（重ねた分のでっかい愛を）
We genuinely lived (With this large accumulated portion of love)
今がある 胸をはれる
And now, we can stand tall with pride
僕ら交わした声が消えないのならば
If our converged voices will not disappear
誓えるよ この愛を 百年先も
We'll make a vow then, no matter how many centuries pass
笑顔が咲いてますように
We'll make smiles blossom with this love
ずっとずっと心にあるんだ
You've always, always been in our hearts
だからこそ伝えてみたいんだ
That's why we want to try conveying this
ありがとう
Thank you
これからも ありがとう
From here on too, thank you
ここに立っている 僕たちが今
The us that's standing here now
輝けるのは 君がいるから
are shining because of you
ここに立っている 僕たちが今
The us that's standing here now
輝けるのは 君がいるから
are shining because of you
五人でいる ずっといる
The five of us are here, we'll always be here
今までを力に替えで
If you turn everything up until now into strength
変わらぬ愛で 包み込んだら
And wrap it up in unchanging love
永遠が ほら 永遠が
Eternity, look, eternity
僕と君だけに生まれたんだ
Was created only for you and I
Another version, from here:
出逢って数年
あれは偶然な気もするね
気付けば十年
空に舞い上がって行く風船
華奢な五人で乗り込む揺れる船
「ただ笑っとこう きっと夢が叶うとこ」
そう言い聞かせてた頃の過去も いま胸にまとう
A few years after we met
It seemed like it had been chance
And before we knew it it's been ten years
A balloon flies up into the sky
And together as a delicate five we boarded a rocking boat
"Just laugh, surely dreams will come true"
We were told this at a time in our past and now we hold it in our hearts
焦り不安憤りばっか 何か感じていた日々もあったな
でもあなたが居てくれたから その笑顔温かかったから
歩いて来れたんだね 横に並びつかんだ手
この過ごした時間さえってなんかね
今はまだただ照れるね
There were days we felt only things like impatience and uncertainty and resentment
But because you were there for us and your smiles were so warm
We managed to walk our way here, with hands lined up to hold along the way
Even with this time we've spent together, somehow
Even now we still are just humbled
体中に風を集めた僕ら
支え切れない悲しみも
あなたがいたから 笑顔にできた
We who collected the wind within ourselvees
And the sadness we couldn't shoulder
Because you were there, we could turn it into smiles
無邪気に奏でた不協和音は
いろんな世界を見てきたんだ
気が付けばいつの間にかそれが
僕らになってた
There was a dissonance innocently played
That got to visit many worlds
And before we knew it, suddenly
That had become us
本気で泣いて（僕達からは沢山の愛の）
本気で笑って（言葉しかもう本当に何もないの）
本気で悩んで（~）
本気で生きて（重ねた分のでっかい愛を）
今がある 胸を張れる
本気で泣いて（僕達からは沢山の愛の）
本気で笑って（言葉しかもう本当に何もないの）
本気で悩んで（~）
本気で生きて（重ねた分のでっかい愛を）
今がある 胸を張れる
We honestly cried (These many words of love from us)
And honestly laughed (Are absolutely all we have)
And honestly worried (~)
And honestly lived (And the great love that piled over itself)
And we're proud of where we are now.

一歩一歩近い道などないなら
信じる道を行くしかないから
もしもあなたが泣いたら ここでまた会おうよ
この相変わらずのヤツらからただ愛贈る
共に望む未来For You
先の山は風で越える 飛べる
僕らの色で辺り染める
If there's no path nearby that you can take step by step
Then your only choice is to walk the path you believe in
And if by some chance you cry then let's meet here again
These unchangeable rascals that will simply send you their love
Together we'll wish for a future for you
Use the wind to cross the mountain ahead, you can fly
And we will paint the vicinity with our colors
一人ぼっちで覗いた空を
あなたも見ているのかな
なら歌うよ 空に向かって
そう 力の限り
By ourselves we glanced up at this sky
And perhaps you're seeing it too
If you are then face the sky and sing
Yes, with everything you have.

Then we swear this love forever onwards
And we hope that it makes smiles blossom

It's always always in our hearts
And that's why we want to try to tell you
Thank you

Is because you're there
We'll be five, forever here

Eternity, you see, eternity
Was born just for you and I
La La La La
La La La La
La La La La

Love
Love for you
They are the only group I feel very proud to be a fan of. Of course, I do the same for other groups, for their talent, their kawaii-ness...but for Arashi it's mainly the bond they share...and the love the show, to each other, to us. I'm so proud!!
My family found out the tix price and commented "You very willing to spend huh. for 3 hrs, that price, and flying there just for the con." Well, yes. Oh and I finally put up my arashi poster!!!!!! Found the plastic frame I was searching for, but wrong size. =.= Wasteed my cash! But I'll go back to get a right size one!
