Okay here's my opinions: Magnolia, Helios and Kizuna are pretty good title names. Most excited for Magnolia as long as if it's a ballad it isn't like Kizuna. Kizuna is so bland and generic and usual Matenrou Opera ballad. No real imagination to it. Also, just watched that video for the first time. They look... Really terrible out of costume o_0 Sono looks like a librarian. And, what the fuck kind of a name is Adult Children? Expecting a sort of "Sexual Entrapment" vibe from that song for some reason. All I can hope for is another variety of song like Faust. Will always be my favorite Matenrou Opera song.

FUCK YES. Super excited for this. I didn't like the name until I googled it, haha, now I think it's a great title. This will be sold in America on or around the release date just like the last three and the live album right? I don't want to have to order it from CDJapan but I will if I have to.

Let me pick out all the wrong things you just said, followed my things I can agree with: A) Britney Spears is NOT the Queen of Pop, but neither is Lady Gaga. Madonna has been the Queen as long as I can remember and Britney has been the Princess as long as I can remember. As ridiculous as it sounds that this is something I'm picking on, it's still a valid truth that you got wrong. Feeling that Someday (I Will Understand) is better than anything Gaga has ever done or ever will do is a matter of opinion. I'm just here to tell you your opinion is wrong. C) Lady Gaga is not a failed singer songwriter. That's not coming from a place of "I'm a huge fan, so I'm going to shove my opinion down your throat" it's coming from a place of fact. Lady Gaga currently has 4 songs on the iTunes top 20 and 8 singles overall placing in the top 5. She is currently on top of the Forbes list of most powerful celebrities, topping Oprah. Britney Spears is nowhere memorable on that list, not to mention on the worldwide charts: The Fame Monster is still beating out Femme Fatale and TFM has been out for a year and a half. These are not my opinions, these are facts. Now, for what I agree with: A) Yes, Gaga has good producers. Better than Britney Spears and Katy Perry (whom I both love) who have producers who recycle the same songs over and over again. No blame to Brit and Katy though, it isn't there fault. Yes, Gaga has a cult of misfit followers, but I think the misfits of the world need some form of leader and/or role model to look up to. Katy and Britney and Christina are the kind of people that in high school a majority of Gaga fans would've hated. So, I'm glad Gaga has a "cult of misfit followers" there's not shame in that.

It's hard to be conceited when you're a drugged-up shell of a human being. HTH. Amen. I mean, I don't hate Britney, her album was passable as music, but in the long run to compare Britney and Gaga is assinine. Britney has just about never written any of her own music in any fashion and her actual true singing ability is incredibly questionable. Gaga may have used a lot of effects on the album, but at least she sang at the core of it. Not to mention, I don't think she's being greedy or having her fans do her dirty work. Did you know she just donated a million dollars to the Robin Hood Foundation for basically no reason? Not to mention, the entire proceeds of the Special Edition are going to AIDS research. As far as the music goes, it's incredible. The 80's-ness of it is only making me love it more. 80's music had a way more epic vibe to it, like the compositions were around 100% better than anything Dr. Luke or Max Martin are capable of today.

I love him so fucking much. I hope that he does get to come to New York or Philadelphia eventually. It is a life goal to be able to see him live.

THANK YOU CHIANTI! You are amazeballs
-
I'm just now getting around to listening to the full song... Is that autotune I hear I'm probably in the minority with being happy about that, but I'm actually liking this a lot! Better than Pledge and Shiver by a lot.
-
I'm going to have to agree with Erin.- and Chianti here... I'm underwhelmed by the song. It's weak and has absolutely nothing on their earlier songs like "World End Anthology" and "Blue Planet" which, to this day, are two of my favorite JRock songs.
-
Anyone have the translation for this song? Greatly appreciated.
-
There's a full instrumental version on youtube of Masquerade that is like... Fucking stunning. This sample, if it's unimpressing you, is a poor representation. The full instrumental is absolute perfection.
-
@Chianti: But anyway, That'd be nice to see cover art and tracklist by next sunday. I think I could live with that, although samples would be better. By the way, does anyone know if Diru still has their twitter? I haven't noticed until recently but I completly stopped getting my mobile updates from them...

Lol ol' Bertha got me to the Deg show in Philadelphia last August, so I GUESS I can't complain. Even though it's the worst car ever. Currently Mufflerless. Anyway, we should get this back on topic. Maybe. It has a name! AWESOME. Love the car though xD Haha Thanks buddy!
-
I, for one, fucking love it. I think it's flawless.

I've been pretty much completely out of the Gackt loop because everything after that 10 year anniversary thing with a different single every week was the last good thing I remember him doing. I got totally bored with all that other shit afterwards. I'm really hoping this blows me away because he is so talented and can do such amazing things.
-
FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUU- Oh well, I suppose it'll be good for them. Here's to a comeback with songs like Ameiro DROP.
