Sakuai is vacuum, Aiba is washing machine!?> popular group Arashi was hired CM character of Hitachi’s home appliances such is vacuum cleaner and washing machine. Their friendly character supported by vast generation and natural real face of each member can be glimpsed in CM. The scene is one day members of Arashi are relaxed in their dressing room. Satoshi Ohno suddenly says “Sakurai-kun is vacuum.” Members make strange face “what are you saying.” Kazunari Ninomiya. “As leader says vacuum, you are vacuum.” Next Ohno says “Aiba chan is washing machine.” Then he stairs face of Jun Matsumoto “Matsujun is….” He starts to say. The CM ends. Arashi’s home appliance story begins letting having expectation following story. At filming Aiba stumbles at his lines but forced to do until the end. Once “Cut” called. Members say “you forced yourself to continue!” he was pointed out one to another. Aiba excuse with smile “Sho-chan became ‘Sou-chan’” They film amusingly from beginning to end, such peaceful atmosphere is also in CM. “appointment by leader” version that togetherness of 5 can be seen starts from 31 all over Japan. Before this Sakurai clean his room “cleaning lover guy” version “washing lover guy” that Aiba amusingly wash are on air from 24. The CM gallery web site is open at Hitachi site too. Hochi, <Arashi of Home appliance! Appointed as Hitachi Home appliance character> 3 patter of all appear “appointment by leader” version, “cleaning lover guy” that Sho Sakurai (28) appears. “Washing lover guy” that Masaki Aiba (28) appears. As this time individual one are only for 2, so we are curious about following versions of Kazunari Ninomiya (27) Jun Matsumoto (26) Sponichi, <However leader… all member strongly point out to Ohno＞ at version of “appointment by leader” Satoshi Ohno appoints seeing each member “you are very vacuum” at filming Ohno stumbles at his lines, calling ‘Sou-chan’ instead of “Sho-chan.” Members pointed out at a stretch. ( I wonder actually who stumbled…) Daily Sports <Arashi “Hitachi appliance” new image character.”> at filming Ohno stumbles at his lines, all member pointed out, it was just like his dressing room atmosphere. Nikkan Sports, <what is “Sho-kun is vacuum, Aiba-chan is washing machine”?>

Deeper into "Take Me Faraway"

[denise-dinc.livejournal.com]

I’m really anticipating Ohchan’s solo in the new album, for the time being I’m digging out all his solo songs and putting them on repeat playlist. Then I remembered this song, and the meaning I thought it has behind, I might’ve shared it before (back in 2008, I think), but I hope it’s okay to just share it again.

Check the translations here.

as Yuuko-san pointed out to me, “Tell Me Why? Take Me Faraway” seem to actually mean “tell me, why do you take me faraway?” (you know sometimes their English is plain weird). Carefully examining this song, it seemed to be some sort of a message from the dead to the living, like the guy who sang this song is actually dead and he's singing this to his living girlfriend (or the other way round?). Stay with me:

Translation: JUN STYLE (2010.07.24)

[iuuppanhut.livejournal.com]

My school has started for about 3 weeks. Because when JUN STYLE is airing, I will be at school and cramming for Maths, I can’t translate JUN STYLE earlier. Maybe you will have to wait a bit longer for my JUN STYLE translation. T______T

Today’s guest is Oguri Shun. I’m not sure if Jun was aware of the fact that he was hosting a radio because I feel this conversation is just like between two friends after long time no meet. They drink, they talk bad about each other, Shun’s not comfotable with the critics, etc.

But Shun has achieved his purpose because after listening to JUN STYLE, I want to watch his movie already ~~
