L’Arc~en~Ciel in Paris and at Madison Square Garden in New York
A few years ago, L'arc en Ciel gave a concert in Paris ( see video). They were then popular in Japan ( now still popular ) but we in Japan hardly imagined they would be such famous in European countries. Actually they already participated in Otakon 2004 in the USA before the concert in Paris, also they went for the concerts in some Asian [...]
Kazuyoshi Saito breaks more in 2012
I like Kazuyoshi Saito' songs very much. He is ( I think) 45 or so now. He has long career in music scene in Japan, but actually he came to be known well in last several years among people of Japan at his age after 40. It's really late for a Rock musician as most of them have peaks at their 20's or 30's and many of them become out of [...]
JAPAN EXPO in Paris France… Morning Musume, X JAPAN…who will be coming up next ?
Recent Japan Expo held in Paris has great guests. In the past years, amazing music stars like X JAPAN joined in the talk session and Yoshiki and Toshi gave a acoustic concert in front of the fans in Paris. X JAPAN's concert tickets are platinum tickets also in Japan, so this could be a great information for Japanese fans too. From the POP [...]
X JAPAN Keeps on Rocking the World
It's a wondrous story that X JAPAN still is on the top of the Japanese music scene. They broke up in 1997 with the emotionally impressive concert in Tokyo ( refer to the video at the bottom). Fans were disappointed with it at the peak time of their band career. With more sadness, HIDE, the legendary lead guitarist died after the last [...]
Okinawa Song, Hana brings memories of beautiful beaches and people of Okinawa
I traveled a lot of times to Hawaii, Guam, Cairns, or some more beautiful beach resort places in the world. Among them, Okinawa is really special especially focusing on the beauty of the beaches. Okinawa's ocean is truly transparent and its beaches are speechlessly wonderful with white sands and warm winds. People of Okinawa is extremely [...]
OKinawa Song, Nada Sou Sou by Rimi Natsukawa
Now it's winter in Japan. Being in a cold season, we often think taking a travel bag to depart to beautiful southern island, Okinawa. Also I especially listen to this song, Nada Sou Sou, by a beautiful female singer, Rimi Natsukawa. Nada Sou Sou means that tear drops and this song conveys the feeling how beautiful the life in Okinawa [...]
Joe Hisaishi Paris Concert
Joe Hisaishi gave a concert in Paris in June this year, 2011. I didn't check if the concert was good or not. Recently I found many videos on YOuTube, and it seems to have been an extremely nice one. Looking at the video, easily we notice that many are enjoying it with much emotional move. Thinking of myself back in 1980's when [...]
I like Beatles A Rama
I'm a fan of Fab 4 and often listen to the old numbers they made. But the word " OLD" isn't the right expression to their songs because their music never gets old. I found a very good internet radio. http://www.beatlesarama.com/ Beatles A Rama is filled with variety of information of the Beatles. Sometimes it gives us non-Beatles [...]
Joe Hisaishi to Paris in June
Joe Hisaishi announced through his facebook that he would give some concerts inParis in coming June. Joe Hisaishi is expected more concerts by his fans of the world. As we know, his concerts are not many in his schedule, with a guess, he probably doesn't like concert action in front of lots of people. Joe Hisaishi once confessed he is [...]
Warner Music to be under acquisition
The big music record & entertainment company, Warner Music Group is today reported to be bought by a new business group called Access Industries. I can't really believe it as a music fan. Warner records has been one of the top music companies in the world together with EMI, SONY, Universal, Virgin, and some others. Especially, Warner [...]
