Ito Yuna's "Let it Go" can be ordered here at YesAsia.
Ito Yuna's "Let it Go" can be ordered here at HMV Japan.
Yunachan just keeps becoming more and more *beautiful* each time we see her in a new release~ and "Let it Go" really put so much into lots of varying wardrobe styles....hairstyles (all so *pretty*!!) and on location as well as in studio sets~. So much of this could be a Vogue cover I think~!
I really wanted to share her "Kira Kira Making" of clip too~ (*´∀`*) (it's just a bit further down ↓↓↓) as you'll see/hear fashion points throughout accompanying her very different wardrobe changes....a wonderful and in depth look into filming as well as a very very sweet♥ surprise at the conclusion of the clip~!! Her birthday♥ was celebrated on set!! and on this most special day for Yunachan~ I *hope* her wishes came true~ on the blow of her candles~ ^ ^。
"Guardians4 "PARTY TIME" releases can be ordered here at Cdjapan.
Guardians4 "PARTY TIME" releases can be ordered here at YesAsia.
"PARTY TIME"'s LE includes a first press photo card (I'm guessing there may be individual member cards available?....mine's is a group photo ^ ^) and additional DVD which focuses solely on jacket and photo shoots making of~. Guardians4 segment is just over 8 minutes while Shugo Chara Egg!'s photo session is just over 7 minutes as the DVD has them in separate chapters to choose from~.

Hirano♥Aya's second album release "Speed Star" is a LE w/ DVD and special slip case packaging...."Speed Star" pv included~! A~h and at long last I'll be able to watch Momusu's pv DVD single for their original version pv as well as a "Green Dance Ver." which sounds a bit odd? (・c_・;)?Guardians4's 3rd single's first pressing includes a 15 minute DVD which includes both their jacket making of footage as well as Shugo Chara Egg!'s artist photo making of~...interestingly the coupling with song is an entirely different track from the title track and this version is exclusive to Shugo Chara Egg!~. Ito Yuna's new single also *happily* includes a DVD with its first pressing~ and promises the video clip for "Let it Go" in addition to a "*sparkling* making of." Her cover photo is so gorgeous!!! (*´∀`*) Yuna always so *beautiful*~!! Also here is C-ute's first best of album compilation in a first pressing which includes jacket making and interviews on the extra DVD which has an impressive running time of 68 minutes!! I suffered very forgetful moment (ノロ≦。)!when I pre-ordered Hangry & Angry's "Sadistic Dance" album~ where after ordering their standard release I then totally forgot to remove it when I realized there was going to be another "lunch box" edition which I so so wanted~...the result? I now have an extra copy of "Sadistic Dance" in RE....(._.;)! どうしよう?
One nice result of having these all delivered together~ is that Berryz Koubou's new double A-side release has arrived at the same time as their pv DVD single which are typically released anywhere from 1~3 weeks after their single releases~. "Chample1~ Happy Marraige song cover shuu~" included some most favorite♥ songs including Puri Puri's beloved "Diamonds" so I'm so looking forward to watching Hello! Project's Summer "Hello Chample" concert DVD~!! Just checked...performance #29 is "Diamonds!!" \(^o^)/☆ W~ah! Nacchi's new concert DVD for her Summer tour includes two DVDs~!...for 199 minutes total!! Disc 2 looks to be all extras including her tour's behind the scenes and making.....and there's even her opening act~ being given DVD time on this release~ ^ ^。So *happy* to see Nacchi's performing my most favorite♥ "Sora LIFE GOES ON" during her encore~ (*´∀`*)。
Sa~ last but definitely not least!!! is Mr.Children's new concert DVD!!!! "Shuumatsu no confidence songs"...I can't even begin to express my euphoria♥ with its arrival~ ヽ(。´▽`。)ノ。。!!"HANABI"..."Esora".."Innocent World"...it goes on....and I will be glued to the screen for 156 minutes of Mr.Children♥ *happiness*~! Bliss~♥! and there is truly~ only one *feeling* that's better or equal to Mr.Children♥。。。。。(。ーωー。)♪♪
Both front and backs bear prints~ and while each back has the now very familiar "Nine Smile" logo of smileys~ =D it's their fronts which really are so much *prettier* than I was anticipating.....as a lot of times those oh so tiny merchandise photos while ordering are much too small to show the true details~ of the prints!
I'm sorry that these didn't turn out so well (._.;)! as I couldn't seem to use the flash as it would always obscure these closer up images~. But the member images are actually really clear and nicely done~! I chose my favorites♥ in Gakisan, Aichan and umm.......OF COURSE KAMEI♥!!! Σ( ̄◇ ̄*)!as she's my most favorite♥ out of the current group lineup just barely edging Aichan♥~ ^ ^。
Each T-shirt set~ includes two member photographs and I always love these so much~! as everyone's wearing their own designs and while these photos are standard for these sets what's not quite expected are those "Smile mini boards" which include adhesive clear strips to attach to their backs~ making them like miniature masks~ ^ ^。Just as with the "smiley" T-shirt designs....each smiley mini board corresponds to a specific member which are also color coded to match~ and it was really a surprise seeing these in place of the nearly always present wristbands~ which typically accompany these releases~. I just wonder how one will see (・_・); with these one as only the mouth portions are open~?…(^q^)!
The member photograph sets are so *pretty* too~! and each member's gestures while wearing these designs....so *cute*~! One with smiley~...one without~..below are their scans ^ ^。。。
I've been watching this ↓↓↓ pv~♥ for awhile now tonight...it's just one of those songs♪♪~ where its catchy qualities mesmerizes you into a puddle of *mush~* ヽ(。´▽`。)ノ。。!I must say thank you to denadel for linking this for me just earlier today~ or rather yesterday as we were speaking about AKB here , to listen/watch as I would never have heard this song I think....and what does 'Chocolove from AKB48' mean? (・c_・;)?
Could it be that 'Chocolove' is the unit's name?....team's name?...a shuffle group? maybe it's not their name at all....hm I've mistaken that before not too long ago (*´艸`)!My phone just buzzed not too long ago~ (^-^*)。。(a PM from CK♥! ヾ(^∇^) ) His PM title says that he'll be teaching me about AKB...a~h! so *thankful*! me is so confused!!! (;´□`)。
I'll begin reading shortly~.....
but first!
You must watch this pv~♥! \(^o^)/☆
'Chocolove' is so so the ~theme~ here and at first I was like E~hhhh?!!!!
…なんだこれ?(・o・)
The beginning is no doubt so very creepy!!! (ノロ≦。)!!!with the scenery!!!! (;゜□゜)
But then by the end you'll (。ーωー。)笑
...and in between you'll surely ヽ(。´▽`。)ノ。。!!(*gush*..!!) or if your body doesn't allow that *function* then you may surely feel っo(*´∀`)o!
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。!
。。。。。。。言う過ぎた( ̄▽ ̄)!
"Ashita wa ashita no kimi ga umareru" is so much written in an early 90's J-pop fashion~♥ right down to the choreography and it's especially evident within that chorus♪ so so so so catchy~!!! ^ ^ It's so heartwarming to hear a song written in a much older style~ I wonder how much more of AKB is this way ne~?
I'm just relieved that it was just chocolate (・д・`*)!!
Hmm...it also says "to be continued??"...
..in any case I now so want this song~!! so much~!! o(*´∀`)o゛♥
"恋”!
Luckily with just two editions purchased you can have everything~ ♪♪ ~ ♪♪ ~ which includes a 16 color photo booklet & DVD with their LE along with a second b-side coupling with track and karaoke versions for all three songs~ included with their RE~...the latter being exclusive to the RE making it as enticing to own of course~!
I've yet again been saved by YesAsia in a time of great panic~!! (゜ロ゜ノ)ノ!!!as "My Girl" as always with any Arashi LE sold out seemingly in just a few hours after being posted from Cdjapan's site! I'm receiving it then a bit later but definitely so so *happy* that it's arrived safely~!
While Arashi's "My Girl" LE Japanese version is out of print you can still find their RE as well as the Korean LE w/DVD release still here at YesAsia.
As always~ Arashi so stylish and *sexy*~..the colors blending so beautifully with the collaboration of a simple background and sweet wardrobe~.....Nino♥ purple pantsu?! ( ̄▽ ̄)
Saying simply that "My Girl" is Arashi at their very *best* when it comes to most elegant ballads~ won't do justice to the very essence of this song♪♪~ and how much it embodies the most unique and special bonds they hold as groupmates♥ through and through as demonstrated so much till now.....but with an extensive look into all of its production and comradeship there within~...."My Girl" really displays so much more than being one of their most awesome and touching ballads to date~.
The LE's DVD offers not only their pv for the title track but in addition with a running time exceeding 33 minutes....we're given a most close up look into the production behind this most moving pv~.
Here are complete scans~ of the LE's 16 page photo booklet...
Cool~! the entire pv for "My Girl" is completely scripted not unlike a mini movie of sorts~ and with complete dialog being rehearsed ahead of shooting it's just one of the special looks you'll get while watching the making of/ behind the scenes footage♥~. While the music is surely being heard throughout the most of the pv~ it's still very much impressive to see Arashi busy at work..albeit amidst lots of playfulness…(^q^)! as they work from the written page to the homelike set awaiting them~.

Equally as moving as "My Girl" is their pv~ which depicts the members as family (kyoodai) in a mini drama~ like atmosphere....and from original plans to move from their childhood home~ things and everyone's perspective changes so much upon Aiba's discovery of a *specially* written letter addressing each of them from their beloved mother who's passed away~....as each is packing and finding such nostalgia in long forgotten treasures which lay throughout their home~♥.
All five are such funny and *cute* hams o(*´∀`)o゛♥~!。。。and there's so much fun in just being able to watch them interact~with one another behind the scenes as the LE's DVD takes us on a most insightful and humorous venture~ ^ ^。From...
...a bit of cellphone mischief.....and the.......
........hilarity that ensues~! Poor Riida ne~ (´⌒`。)。。。
First, we're happy to announce that the team has identified and fixed the issue with the YouTube conduit; you can now find and add videos from YouTube to your library and posts. As always, thanks for your patience!
The other news we have today is about a new addition to the Six Apart family: TypePad Micro, a new free level of TypePad that is streamlined for microblogging. We see a new form of blogging emerging that lives between the quick status updates of Twitter and Facebook and the long-form posts of "classic" blogging; TypePad Micro is designed to meet that need. You can read more about TypePad Micro in Chris Alden's post on the Everything TypePad blog.
A lot of the new capabilities we've added to TypePad this year were actually inspired by some of the best things about Vox: favoriting, member profiles, a dashboard to follow other bloggers, and easy ways to post content from other social media sites. But the things that make Vox different from TypePad are still there: Vox has always been -- and still is -- the best place for "friends and family" blogging, where you're in control over who sees what. TypePad, on the other hand, is built for the blogger who wants, no, craves, attention.
Do you have a passion or interest you want to share with people beyond your Vox neighborhood? If so, we'd love it if you tried out TypePad Micro. Maybe you've always wanted to start that obsessive blog that's just about waffle restaurants. Or want a place to share videos of your favorite band (Jonas Brothers, anyone? Anyone? ...). TypePad Micro's great for those topic-specific blogs. Take it for a spin and let us know what you think.
On the Vox front, our designers are working on some cool new themes (coming soon!). We'd also love to hear your thoughts about where we should take Vox in the coming year. What are the key things you'd like to see for Vox? If you've had a chance to use TypePad this year, what are the features there that we should bring over to Vox? And, if you're thinking big thoughts, how could we connect the Vox and TypePad communities in order to bring together bloggers and their shared passions? Your feedback is really important to us, so please leave a comment here, or shoot me a message.
And again, thanks for your patience as we found and fixed the YouTube bug!

As many of you have noticed, the YouTube Conduit is not working. I am so sorry about this; I know how frustrating it is.
The team is looking into how to get this fixed and I will update you as soon as I hear something. In the meantime, not all is lost... There is a work-around for posting videos.
When you're in the Compose Screen, just click on "embed." Ignore the fact that it says "Widget" before everything because you can definitely use this to embed videos as well. You'll just need to input the embed code from the video, enter a title (if you want) and hit OK.
It might not show up perfectly in your compose screen, but when you hit "Save," your video should appear just the way you wanted it to.
Hopefully this will allow you to keep posting videos while we figure out what's happening on our end.
As always, thanks for your patience.
