I don't know if anybody has posted this. This is a Nakai-Goro CM for chocolate!

And I haven't seen the Pocari CM for Kimura either. There is a wicked CM with Tsuyoshi for Toyota - he looks really cute in it! I hold my breath everytime it comes on TV. aahhhhh :smitten: And I've seen some big Asahi beer posters at JR stations with Shingo on it - he's got such a great smile.

Anyone, pls CORRECT me if my explanation is wrong...

Japanese use S and M characters quite often to describe people. S is short for sadistic. M is short for masochist. But it doesn't mean that literally.

S = people who likes to bully others. M = people who likes/okay to be bullied.

I'm not sure if there are other meanings to S n M characteristics. But that's what I vaguely learned^^

Nakai-Kimura-Shingo are the S types. And I think Goro-Tsuyoshi are the M types^^

sou ka?
f-chan and veiledfeather were talking about this in la creme forum. Now I know what the meaning is :mrgreen:

Hee...nande, nande??? Everyone dislike MERMAID as a song?

Umm...it's not that I dislike the song. When I first listened to the chorus i felt like listening more to Arashi song than SMAP's :beaten:
Maybe I need to listen to it more often to get the SMAP feeling :mrgreen:

I know! But I think even Arashi has strayed from their original style...not much dance songs anymore :sweat: I prefer old-style Arashi! And I prefer older SMAP songs!

Wow, there's such rumours, oyabin?

Aren't all Johnny's groups recording label is VICTOR?

If SMAP's gonna transfer to another record label.... hmm...

Hi, Yanie, are you enjoying Japan?
Among J jimusyo, only SMAP belongs to Victor. NEWS and KinKi are JE(Johnny's entertaiment). Kattun's label is J -one something. And ARASHI is J storm something. Almost all J-jimusyo groups belongs to J-Jimusho relataed label. Only Smap and TOKIO are non-J label.
I don't think SMAP will transfer to J-something label but there are rumor that they will change label to a-vex or other companies.

As for takuya vesion. I think it won't be made soon. Because he appears in Geogia coffee CM, of Japan Coca Cola Company. The company has AQUARIUS, a competing product of Pocari. It is likely to be aired after the contract period with Coca Cola. On J-wave, (keitai-site of JE) there are no name of Pocari in the list of Kimura's CM.

I quite like the tunes of it. It reminds me of DEAR WOMAN very much. And I thought many Smappies likes that song? Or is it exactly becoz of that?? :sweat: It gets boring? hehe....

MERMAID is okay for me^^

Maybe SMAP will directly release an album, without releasing a single, as there is no time. Just a feeling...

I don't really like Mermaid as a single either, but the tune is so catchy that it's been stuck in my head for days now.....
