It is say that a American singer James Brown is passed away a few dayz ago... He had sing a song with our SMAP in the album <014>, <Jara Jara Japan~ for the japanese>, ne??? :crazy:
OK, now itz my turn to flood here with pics... (Gomen, itz all BLUR...)
My two tops comes first.. Itz really hard to cap them, the two of them are standing a bit far,, and they seldom face to the camera together,,, LOL.. :sweat:
The ratingz for Kouhaku (SMAP part) is 46.1%...
The highest among all... :applaud: :applaud:
Those enka singers,, most of their ratingz are below 30%...
NHK really should change it to the famous singers or groups...
Those enkas wont help anymore..
I'm alwayz wondering,, if Nakai-kun isnt the host for this year, hows the ratingz then??? Below 30%?
Finally I can log in to this forum today.... Can't enter Jdorama at all in past few days... :doh: I need to get that Star newspaper!!!! There are thousands more much kakkoi Takuya's pictures, why must they chose that one?!!!!!!
I managed to watch Kouhaku when Smap sang Arigatou, it was good!!! need to download the whole show and rewatch some parts.
Actually, I'm the type that prefer slow songs, or you can say 'boring' type of song. So, sometimes I can enjoy listen to the old Japanese songs in the 80's. They're really good, but I don't like enka too. I don't think NHK would change the performance from enka into entirely J-pop. Even FNS or Music Station(entirely Jpop shows) only manage to get rating about 18%-22% The older generations would prefer to listen to enka. NHK wants wider range of viewers. If you watch the singing competition that was shown in NHK every week, you'll notice that most of the people who participate would sing enka. Even I think it's good if Japanese can still maintain singing enka, it's like a tradition. But sadly, most younger Chinese already forgotten about opera.
I heard NHK received thousands of complaints regarding DJ Ozma's performance, I think it somehow affect the rating....

i agree that they shouldn't get rid of enka because it's part of their culture but there was just SOO much of it consecutively. i think maybe if they spread it out more it would be better

I haven't seen anything up for torrent yet, but this hello!project fansite has a direct link to a brief SMAP performance of Dear Woman, it's odd; It's SMAP + Hello Project girls + Football players + Dear Woman: http://www.filepulse.com/movies/12313.shtml
Hello everyone! Seems like forever since I've been able to post. Hope everyone had a great Xmas and Happy New Year.
Fye, did you ever get a chance to see Pop Up! dvd? I haven't yet but someone has uploaded it at Jpopsuki.
Yanie, thank you sooooooo much for for burning the Goro stuff for me. :glomp: I'll be back from vacation in a few days. Let me know what Smap avi files you want. I'll start dl'ing as soon as a get back. Also, I'm pretty sure I've mentioned this before but your analysis of Smap is always really good. You could write a book about them...a Smap guide for all Smappies, heh.
Elaine, I'll start uploading all the Smap stuff you haven't been able to see when I get back. Should be in a few days or so.
So excited to finally be able to see all the holiday Smap stuff I missed. I mean I love my family but I missed Smap and all smappies, too haha.
