feeling: entertained
listening to: BLOOD - I Remember You
My BLOOD stuff finally came in today. ^__^ I've been listening to the new single throughout much of the day, and I've already translated The Funeral for Humanity. I likes it. And the second track is Fu-ki (I think?) doing a soft reading of that vampire poem thing I translated for Kiwamu in July. It's the Japanese version though... but my English version is printed in the CD jacket. My name's in it too... :D! Even more entertaining is that Lauren's name is missing... maybe that means I've replaced her... O_o;;
*giggles*
Ok... I have the CD playing now, and it's on the third track, I Remember You (Fu-ki's new remake of Tsuioku, which is possibly my favorite BLOOD song ever). This version has new all-English lyrics, and some of it is rather... amusing. XD One line toward the end says "From the chick in the cloud, the light shines..." XD And it's so cute cause he has a Japanese accent (of course) so the 'ck' sound in 'chick' is really emphasized (in Japanese it's like 'chikku' with the u silent), and then there's a brief pause after that word, so it's like "From the chiCKK!... in the clooouuuud..." XDDD
Yes... I love Fu-ki, and I love the song, but I may never be able to listen to it without bursting into giggles at that part...
Ahem... anyway, the single also comes with a DVD with 12 minutes of footage from their live in France back in April, and in those 12 minutes we get to see Kiwamu fall TWICE. Which is hilarious because he's the one who edits all the band's videos, and he left them in. XD The boy's a professional klutz. I don't think I know anyone who's been to a BLOOD live or event where he didn't fall at least once. And then of course there's his quote from an old magazine interview Calla showed me last weekend... "I shake my ass while spitting blood!" *rolls*
I had a couple really cool art ideas recently, but I'm forced to put them off because I have, like, 16 days to both start and finish a birthday fanart for Kaede. And I have no ideas at all as to what to do. >_>
And you know... I want to hear Fu-ki singing some ballad type songs. The previous vocalists, Dai and Takeshi, did a few of those, and they're still fan favorites. Whereas I can't even imagine Fu-ki singing a slow song like Tsuioku or Sakura... even though I saw him perform those two and more at Fanime... >.> I want more though. His voice is all melty-smooth when it wants to be. He could do some nice ballads.
In other news... recently, on occasion, I am reminded of what it's like to feel appreciated, and loved, and even needed. Kinda gives me the warm fuzzies. *snuggles those precious few who've shared that feeling with me*
And I seem to be getting tired already... hmm...
*hugs everyone goodnight* I'm in a good mood. ^^
