Yay! Even our boys are having "look up" photos! *chacharap...chacharap...xDD*

Tadaima! How ya guys doin'?! Although I'm active downloading and commenting, I'm posting again after more than a month of my last post.

First...YEAH! I changed my whole journal page! As you notice, the theme of my page has a flying rainbow kite. I chose this because I think it suits the journal title I made myself: Rainbows of An Infinite Storm. I also love the header on my sticky post. I just edited and combined pictures of Arashi(from "Your Eyes") and Kanjani8(from "It's My Soul"), put "Rainbows of An Infinite Storm" text and VOILA! I also edited my profile/user info as well.

Before, I'm always saying that Kanjani8 is only my niban group, but as of September 2012, I considered both Arashi and Kanjani8 as my ichiban idols. Thanks to this forum, I joined several Kanjani8 communities, and also through these communities, I discovered dozchan's journal where I got my first Eito files, and neitaro's journal, where I got most of Eito's songs that made me an Eighter (plus I love her fangirling posts!).

Ikuta Toma, Yamashita Tomohisa and the 4nin NEWS(as well as Tegomass) are my niban idols...Anyway, I love my latest journal page more than my journal page before, because I really put more efforts here, as I'm the one who made the header and GIFs posted on both journal page and profile bio.

Second...It's so surprising that few days before the release date of Arashi's 11th studio album POPCORN, I already saw comments regarding about the tracks, and I got a chance to hear ALL of the tracks, and I absolutely love them all, most especially WELCOME TO OUR PARTY, AKASHI, COSMOS and WAITING FOR YOU.

"Welcome To Our Party" has this electropop feel that made me think that I'm actually at...the party,hehe...Although I heard "Akashi" before(during 2012 London Olympics), I repeatedly playing it, and I think that this is one of the most inspiring songs I ever heard. "Cosmos" and "Waiting for You" gave me this anime feeling...

The members' solos are also adorable, most especially Ohno's "Two" and Nino-kun's self-written solo "Sore wa Yappari Kimi Deshita". OHMIYA'S voices are so powerful(and heart-melting!). Got amazed at Ohno's long breath before the last chorus in "Two". And that forever 17 boy proved his songwriting skills once again!(Although there are lines used that can be found in his previous solo "Niji"). And I was totally freaked out surprised with Jun's "We Wanna Funk, We Need a Funk" solo! I was surprised because the lyrics of the solo are mostly written in English.(Maybe Jun did a tongue exercise before recording such, hehe...peace, Jun! v(^-^)v ) Everytime I hear this, my mind wanders...hehe, I bet you know what I mean!

Singles such as Meikyuu Love Song, Wild at Heart, Face Down(my favorite clubbing song...maybe because it was released on my 20th birthday!) and Your Eyes were heard once again. POPCORN indeed is full of POP songs, and I noticed that all group songs are Genki(cheerful) songs. 

I also got a chance to see the contents of POPCORN LE booklet scans(Well, the scans are already spreading on Tumblr.), and the animated Arashi as POPCORNS are adorkable! But I love Arashi more in their POPCORN costumes! Actually, I made this GIF from some scans of the album booklet. They're ADORKABLE, right?!



I'm happy that I can listen to POPCORN tracks even though I can't buy the album itself...>.<
Anyway, Arashi, Omedetou Gozaimasu for another successful album!

(I just noticed...Kanjani8 has CROUTON, Arashi has POPCORN...They're both crunchy and yummy...but...Are these 12 dorks feeling hungry lately,huh?!^o^)
