Hakuei 1 Posted September 8, 2010 MIYAVI to Collaborate with Good Charlotte MIYAVI, who is currently working on his new album, WHAT'S MY NAME?, has announced a collaboration with American pop-punk band Good Charlotte. The singer will feature on the song Like It’s Her Birthday for Good Charlotte's upcoming album Cardiology. The album will go on pre-sale in Japan on October 27th as part of group’s first album after changing record labels. Like It’s Her Birthday will be a bonus track on the Japanese version only. Good Charlotte say that they have always had a lot of respect for Japan and have been wanting to collaborate with a Japanese artist for a while. After seeing MIYAVI perform live, they asked him if he would like to collaborate with them. In addition to this, we are happy to inform that MIYAVI and his wife, popstar Melody, are expecting a second baby. Their daughter, Lovelie, is already a year old and Melody says that she expects her to be a good older sister.

X-Marc 7 Posted September 8, 2010 myv and good charlotte? epic fail, fuck the american musicians, just keep doing what you do best. american musicians really try to use japanese musicians to get into the japanese scene, f*cking stupid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stylelover 1086 Posted September 8, 2010 ^Thats not true. Many american bands are well known in japan. (without "using" japanese musicians) But im sure they would be happy to collaborate with american bands. And its actually normal that many american bands release their albums first in japan and a week later in other countries. And most of them have bonus tracks for japan. Anyway the song was already posted at youtube a few weeks ago and miyavi did all the guitar parts. But i actually cant wait to hear the album. Its goiing to be great.

bonsaijodelfisch 328 Posted September 8, 2010 ^ ^ well it may be true that this collaboration is mainly for the purpose of selling a few more albums in japan, but techniques like that are pretty common in the japanese scene aswell, which is why lots of j-bands release their songs in (often terrible) engrish too, but i don't see why collaborations generally shoud be bad in any way. in contrary it is a nice thing, if musicians/artists come together to create something new, or atleast somewhat different from what they do normally, and especially this has absolutely nothing to do with where they come from. beeing american or beeing japanese doesn't reflect in any ways on the ability of the person behind it. having never been a fan of good charlotte, in this particular case i don't like the outcome aswell and the impact of miyavis participation doesn't seem to be fundamental to say the least, but thats just me. there are some other examples, which work quite different, like michael schenker or paul gilbert with sex machineguns, or DEG touring with slipknot and Korn, and maximum the hormone forming an overseas connections with bands like enter shikari and bring me the horizon. >>EDIT< and of course zilch with hide and former danzig members if i remember correctly< so this might not be the best teamup of musicians in history, but bands/artists should not be limited on with whom they work with, by trivialities like cultural background or nationality. edit2: grammar...

ShanethVarosa 1209 Posted September 8, 2010 What the hell is with these weird ass collaborations? Although, I'm listening to the song and it's not that bad! It's easily the best guitar work that Good Charlotte has ever had. Not to change the subject, just a quick question: Whatever happened to that collaboration between Mana and Amy Lee from Evanescence that I red about like 2 years ago?

nekkichi 6043 Posted October 11, 2010 someone on youtube said that single version doesn't have Miyavi's guitar part, album version would... or something. btw it's HILARIOUS how hard he's trying to get to the US market now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jigsaw9 6783 Posted October 11, 2010 btw it's HILARIOUS how hard he's trying to get to the US market now. To my knowledge, the Meev collaboration version is only on the Japanese version of the album/single/whatever. At least from what I've read some time ago (I don't really keep track of this collab xD).
