my eyes will be wide open the whole time! XD I can't wait for the concert. And I liked this song from the first listen so I know it will be beautiful live.

I kinda wasn't feeling this song at first, but after a few listens it grew on me. And after this TV live I'm looking forward to hearing it concert.

I can't imagine how awesome it will be with:
Live band
+Excellent sound
+lighting, effects, and overall atmosphere.

I imagine this is one of those songs that everyone sways back and forth to. (with their eyes closed, while mouthing the lyrics)

Like I mentioned earlier when I wuz gettin' mah rant on, it reminds me of the emotion in Season's Call, which is the first song that really got me into Hyde. I liked Cape of Storms, I liked Honey (the only songs I knew), but when I heard Season's Call, I was like "Holy crap, this guy is AWESOME!"

I think I'm one of the few people who got into Hyde first, and then was like, "Oh wait, doesn't he have another band or something?"

Also awesome that SC was written by K.A.Z, I do believe, which means that, really, I've liked him as long as I've liked Hyde. I just didn't know it.

^ actually that was the same for me too. I got into Hyde's solo stuff first and then decided to check out L'arc~en~ciel more. ^___^

thanks for catching my back, though i didn't realize i inadvertently set off a Maelstrom. sorry folks. i don't think in a linear fashion. m_ _m

and thanks for the Ayaka! cool!

as to Evanescent, really enjoyed the live performance. Hyde is certainly going to break my heart singing that live if just that snippet gives me twinges!

i got into L'Arc and Hyde simultaneously and for a long time couldn't really separate the two. but it was ROENTGEN, not FAITH that i got 1st.

and KAZ is looking super cool with his new hair too! oops, running off track yet again...

My pleasure on all counts, my dear!

We had the Season's Call single, cos it was the cheapest thing on Amazon to check him out, then my wife bought 666 and put it on her XBox 360 soundtrack, and I kept hearing it in the background while she was playing. I must've stopped her 20 times, asking "Who does this song? It's awesome!" Finally she was like, "If the song is awesome and makes you stop what you're doing to hear it, you can assume it's Hyde by now, ok!?"

I realized she was right, and that I was hopelessly in love with his music.

As for going off topic, I think we cleared that up, so don't worry. If Tokio doesn't say anything, then you're probably fine. Let's not stifle the great conversations we've all been having. I think K.A.Z's fantastic hair is completely on topic! It's definitely not evanescent, that's for sure!

it was similar when i got my kids all into Hyde and L'Arc. ok, well maybe i sort of gave them a taste of "rapid immersion" technique. XDD every time they came by or called i had Hyde's voice blasting away. worked well! i've managed to turn my two, their spouses, my daughter-in-law's Japanese grandmother(she likes ROENTGEN), her daughters, half my kids' friends and i'm working on my brother. :D just sharing the love all around.

in the clip, KAZ' hair is pretty with his highlights. and Hyde has a nice new do too. Ari looks the same, just letting it grow. (that reminds me, i found an old pic of him from back in the day. early 90's. woh, he was a pretty boy too!)
i do miss Ju-ken's red and black. looks too tame now. we'll see what summer brings! XDD

The day has been good! I got my tickets for the Vegas show, Evanescent was waiting for me when I got home from work along with VAMPS #10 and the latest editions of Hydeist Times.
Had to rush to other job but will be in listening bliss tonight. I love this song!

I just listened to "Life on Mars" 7 times in a row. They have to play this song live...

Did you buy the single on iTunes USA?

I won't have my evanescent copy until I arrive to the states in July (along with the album) T_T! but I'll listen to the song through youtube or any mp3 I can get ^^
