~Wish Live @ MF~

[ryoko293.livejournal.com]

The more I hear and see of this song, the more I get to like it! At first I thought is was just a very very cheesy Xmas song that only hard-core Arashis would listen too, but it turned out to have such a great melody and the singing pairs are really well chosen! I must have watched it over 10 times already (am I NOT a har-core fan? ^^) and so I want to share my lil observations and opinions with you.

My comments about the MF live pref:
It looks really tasty *g* how they rub their tummies. ^^
Kazu is SOOO motivated, he smiles all the time!!! *stunned*, what happened during his hiatus for god's sake? *naughty* Buzzychan, I blame you! LOL He points and grins in the camera AND he is really good during the preformance (no critisism, but it's just the first time that I realize how enthusiastic he is)
I like JunJun's hair style, he kept the HYD lenght but left it straight! Kakoii~
Shortly before the announcer starts to talk you can see JunJun doing his famous I-look-so-cool-when-I-stick-out-my-toung-out-doing-a-live-pref-for-all-my-fans-to-seepose ^^ (yay I know, it's a long name of a pose, but he is very brainy, he can think of something in just a short time!) All wear their (golden) sneaker ... but no, JunKun has his clown shoes on ... haha, I love them XD
They all decided on the red chemise JunJun wore for the PV ... although I don't like all-in-the-same-color looks, I have to admit, that it suits them.
Satoshi has the part of his live ... he only has a pause from singing when he has to pref complex dance moves ( ^^') poor him ... he looks a lil tired sometimes during the live ... *hugs Satoshi* ... but then he grins like nothing is wrong ... *more hugs*
SOOO CUTE~ and very creative how JunJun brings in this lil tencho leg movement right before his and Satoshi's mini solo ... AWESOME, I like his spontanious side!
Last but not least, Satoshi looking at the cam with this really cute look on his face, I call it the innocent youth look >^^<
All in all, this will become one of my most fave pref for sure ... to quote a famous pop artist in the Japanese music buisness:

MITE NE~

I just sligthly change the quote to make it accuate! LMAO

Oh, you don't wonder why I didn't mention MACHAN in all of this ... acctually there is not much to say, except: I LOVE HIM! haha ... he dances really well, not one shippai I could make out! *bravo Machan, Jules is proud of you*, but fact is, he doesn't stand out ... well for me he did, since I was drooling over my keyboard watching the pref three times in a row with my eyes fixed on him LOL, but not in general ... when you watch the clip you'll realized that he neither interacts with the others nor does any special hand moves nor looks at the camera (except for once, but lowers his eyes right after it!) ... *sobs*

edit: For all those that haven't seen the pref yet, [Bad username or unknown identity: DIE GACKTSAMA] will be so kind as to up it soon, so please stay tuned and MAKE SURE TO LEAVE A COMMENT~ on her LJ to thank her!
Oops, I think I forgot to thank you myself~! *sweatdrop* THANKS ICE HIME~ hahaha <- bad immitaion of Machan laughter ^^

2nd edit: lea26karla has just pointed out to me, that I didn't mention Shokun at all! As always he is very good at dancing and singing, no mistakes at all! He supports Kazu's genkiness with some lil stunt there: Jumping back when they are doing high-five! Doing some extra turns to give it the right twist haha ... his smile is just subARASHI as always ...

I thought they didn't perform on MS yet...? o_o; Maybe you're talking about the Music Fighter perf? XD If you are, I agree; they're all really, really cute in it! X3

[ryoko293.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, I'm going to correct that~ thanks *sweat*

[noesunexito.livejournal.com]

T_T where did you get this?!

[dream-raine.livejournal.com]

I can't find the music fighter on jpopsuki!! Neeed it so badly!!

*rub rub*

[violomana.livejournal.com]

LoL! I thought that Nino was being uncharacteristically genki too! He must have been really hyper that day. Usually he dances a little bit lazily or looks really bored, like in EYES WITH DELIGHT or the Wish PV (he just looks off into the sky and sings as if nothing matters ^^').

I agree with ryoko-chan on so many things - like how the song is really growing on me and the way they "rub their tummies" (it's so baka that it's kawaii!). UuWaa~! And Satoshi: Ganbatte! ^^

Re: *rub rub*

[ryoko293.livejournal.com]

yeah, and he also hardly shippais! I'm so proud of him ^^ he really is into the song ne~? maybe he helped writing it LOL

I watch it over and over again, but nothing will take the place of NK and AoN from Izza now hahah

minna ha kawaii!!

[paito-torres.livejournal.com]

i watched the performace once again (already like 10 times) and i just can'y get enough of it. every one looks soo happy and sooo cute!!!!
well all except Jun cuz he looks SEXY as hell....
i really liked the coreography, a lot of hands movement... and the "rub their tummies" is such a great name...
i think in the PV sho is the one that looks the happiest but in the Live Jun and Nino Stand out... You know.. looking at the camera, smiling all the time..

they are sooo cute!!!!!!! >.<

thank You soo much Gacktsama for uploading the video!!!

Re: minna ha kawaii!!

[ryoko293.livejournal.com]

haha, thanks, I was sitting over that name for ages ... LOL just kiddin' ^^
Yeah, Jun is really sexy, his 'new' imropved HYD hair style is fab *winking at Jun*

I like the end so much when Satoshi has this CUUUUTE~ look on his face, makes me wanna squeeze him so much~

Re: *rub rub*

[violomana.livejournal.com]

What are shippais? I can guess that they might mean something like, "Worries" or "mistakes" but I don't really know... ^^; (and ryoko-chan uses them all the time too! xD)

What are "NK and AoN from Izza now"?

Re: *rub rub*

[ryoko293.livejournal.com]

haha, wari~ (=sorry!) me and my Japaenglish:

shippai is the japanese word for mistake, you got tharight. I like it so much that I always write it ... funny sound ^^
NK= Nemuranai Karada (one of my fave songs)
AoN= All or Nothing (became one of my fave songs recently too!)

I just wanted to say that I'm proud of Kazu hat he hardly made dancing mistakes (like he used to) XD

[ryoko293.livejournal.com]

haha, kawaiii~ but you're right, it's funnier than the typical A-RA-SHI A-RA-SHI for dream move ^^

I think I should tell my friend too ... our new 'We are Arashi fans' sign XD, but I think that nothing can replace the AA for dream hand movement, it's so TYPICAL Arashi

[chesuto.livejournal.com]

Kyaa~ I loved it when they rubbed their tummies~! XD They all looks so cute~ XD And yeah... Kinda shocked with Nino in that Live Performance XD

On that last part, that 'innocent youth' look of Ohno's... I was wondering why he was the only one looking at the camera, and the others just seemed to look at the floor or something XDD Ah~ Kawaii~

another thing... you didn't seem to comment on Sho-chan. XDD lol XD

aside from that... your insights seem same with mine. xD

[ryoko293.livejournal.com]

YEAH let's all rub our tummies ...

hehe, i think they were MEANT to look on the floor ... Machan maybe though ... were is my wallet guys, help me search WAHAHA~ sorry... *g*

OMG you are right! I have to correct that ... he is pretty genki too! also in the PV!

[umechan.livejournal.com]

My bt finally finished. :~) The live is adorable ..and I can't complain that it looks like this time's camera loves Nino and Jun. :D I've been dying to see Nino play up to the camera more. More naughty/adorable looks like in the Sunrise Nippon PV or that Hadashi no Mirai live clip I have hoarded away somewhere in my stash of Arashi junk. XD;;

[ryoko293.livejournal.com]

great you were able to watch it~
yeah, it's such a lovely song! I was really surpised to see Kazu that happy and genki and also Sho (though he smiles a lot during lives anyways ^^) Kazu is not one of my faves but he is so 'shining' in this live .. scares me LOL

you might want ot check out saishi_gackt's LJ, she also has the live on Music Fair uploaded that was aired the day after their MF pref AAAND~ a lil something for Hana Yori Dango fans, hehe

Re: *rub rub*

[violomana.livejournal.com]

Shippai! I like the sound of it too! ^^

Kazu makes dancing mistakes? I thought that was Aiba? Uh oh... *runs away from ryoko-chan* XD

Re: *rub rub*

[ryoko293.livejournal.com]

no problem, I make fun of Machan's mistakes too!

about Kazu, well I've seen the SClub live pref of my fave song Nemuranai Karada and Kazu shippais every other step *sweat* .. so do the otehrs ... but he looks grumpy and unenthusiastic too!

It's not that he shippais a lot, but he dances half-hearted, totally opposit of Shokun, he dances with such a determination ... awesome~!

[chesuto.livejournal.com]

XD oh XD they were? XDD

yay~ sho-chan's there now~ XD Yeah. pretty genki. *nod nod* Kyaa~ Kawaii Sho-chan~ XD

smile = definitely subARASHI~

XD

[ryoko293.livejournal.com]

haha, Shochan wa zettai ni kawaii desu~

his voice is so awesome! I could listen to his solo Unti Unti over and over again, if Machan wouldn't be my fave LOL
