^LOL!! i'm fine with the snow cover as long as they dont put anymore moons or stars on it.. probably our guys are sick of posing for album covers *shrugs*or they are trying to force the fans to buy their mags by not appearing in any cover shoots

ROLF! yes..those 'best' albums are popping up like mad but i think ballad best will be the last for this year.
their theme for this year is PERFECT YEAR, hence --------> remaking every previous perfect hit and pooping best albums with additional new songs here n there to keep the fans happy
and naturally, there will be a DVD release later this year or early next year.. i think..if Hiro's business mind work in the same way as mine XDD

i gaze into my plastic crystal ball and i see....
1.Kawaranaimono
2.Kimi ga iru kara
3.Hibiki
4.Tada..aitakute i seriously hope to see Shun pop up and stop them from doing this or if they still wanna do it..please let it be orchestra version T________T
5.Manatsu no Kajitsu
6.careless breath
7.unmei no hito
8.love
9.Lovers Again
10.Pure
might be on Ballad Best. btw, i got my plastic crystal ball from a $2 shop so the predictions subject to be wrong XXDD
wat do u gals think??

[garnet_moon]

Did they move the release date? HMV sent me my Ent Best copy yesterday. I thought it was going to be sent at least on 26th, but wth, I'm happy and can't wait to get my hands on it.

Is your order with the magazine? If not, then yeah, pre-order CDs are shipped a day before the release date in HMV ^^

lilplue > your wish has around a great chance of not getting come true.. Tada Aitakute will not be spared after all it's their greatest ballad, why miss a chance of hitting the jackpot again (it's not that I want it but I guess I have no choice, Okay I'll give it a chance for re-recording provided it will be either of the ff: Tada Aitakute ~Orchestra Version~ << most preferred / Tada Aitakute ~Piano Version~)

Hahaha... Well EXILE on covers is almost same as without EXILE on covers, both aspects are crappy... Anyway, EXILE are thinking without their pictures, their albums hit millions. XD (See the trend, EXILE LOVE, Catchy Best and now Entertainment Best?)

my requested songs to be on re-recorded version: Heart of Gold, Eien

Earlier I had a dream, EXILE covered FOH's "Namida no Kazu dake" WTF, they shouldn't and absolutely dare not to touch that song...

[lilplue]

^crap..i just hv to throw out the crystal ball then XDD
i think they could pull it off with a orchestra version of tada aikute*fingers cross*
if they aint letting tada aikute go... i think Song For You could be in the firing line as well..not exactly wat i wish for but heck~ i hope i'm wrong.
remake of Heart of Gold and Eien would be interesting..hmmmm...

i just watch HEYx3 performance and they were wearing the stripes space suits.. with a different colour XXDD light grey stripes.. nice..

[garnet_moon]

Total Sales as of 2nd day = 248,690

Hmm.. almost 250K huh...

Anyway, December is still far away to think of the 3rd best album.. All I care now is to lay my hands on Entertainment Best + magazine + COLOR's album XD

[fobbiyo]

Gail, that's the worst dream you can EVER have!!! !! and lmfao true. I guess they have better luck without putting themselves on the covers? It's still nice to see some EXILE action on the covers
Ehhh. I hope Tada Aitakute is going to be the orchestra version too! A piano version would be as nice
No. PLEASE DO NOT remake Song For You. That song has too much sentimental value to be remade. Every time I hear that song I feel like crying
Oh yea! LOl! I forgot about their PERFECT YEAR idea...

edit: How much was shipped? o__o 250K in two days, not bad. Not bad at all. They're still on number 1 right?

[ooh..lala]

WOW Snow for their upcoming Ballad Best.. next will be Rain...
You mean their Ballad best will be another remake songs from the Exile (Shun N Atsushi's) aww.. can't they write new songs? What happened to them? Remaking every songs from the past..
Okey.. if they're remaikng all the songs, then I'll request Follow Me..Tada Aitakute..acoustic version..

Not bad for two days..250k..hope they make it..though it might not be the same as Catchy Best and Exile Love..

[garnet_moon]

Third day total = 290,967

They had a large drop today.. Looks like at the end of the week it will be just 350-400K.. =___=

[cen_ai]

Hi..everyone..I'm a newbiee here coz i just got into EXILE and i just found out as well that their songs are love
Lyly, i saw your post on the first page that you said you love their Song For You and just like you told me before..now i'm listening to Song For You..first time i heard the melody i thought that i knew it and dang! finally i remember that this song also was sung by a Taiwan group 5566 and at that time i thought this song was 5566 original song LOL it's funny that i heard the remake version which was sung by another singer first than its original version..I love EXILE's song ^^

[fobbiyo]

LOL CENNY! Yeah, I heard alot of remakes that are originally EXILE's Glad you love them more now. Omfg, EXILE spazz with you now?! No one I know besides the frequent posters in this thread likes EXILE. It makes me sad

Aww Gail, really? Well, the sells aren't that bad.. but compared to CATCHY BEST.. o_o I think it's because they have so many BEST albums this year. lmfao.

[ooh..lala]

Awww...sales that's not really that flattering is it..maybe they should do more promoting....

[fobbiyo]

I want to go watch the Super Shine performance. OMFGGGG. GAIL! Can you tell me what EXILE said about DBSK? lol. I was so happy when i was watching that episode because there's FINALLY some interaction with two of my favorite groups.

lol at the cover. I don't know what to think.... What's the theme for this?

The sales. It's pretty good, lower than their other ones but it's good.

[alize_sakura]

cen_ai >> welcome to the club... ^^

Hum... I hope the sales will grow up again...

And I haven't see the Music Fair show yet... too sleepy for it... *sigh* But for EXILE, I will watch it today... *tried to make my eyes open*

[qnuy]

cen_ ai: welcome to the thread ^.^

I received my Entertainment Best copy yesterday. Aahh...I'm soooo glad that I decided to buy the album as I like it so much. I can't help dancing in every song but too bad I can't play the PV Makings. I don't know what the problem is, hopefully it's not the dvd T_T
The flyers of Ballad Best cover is inserted in the lyric booklet no wonder we get to see the cover now. It's to release in December (no specific date though)

The kodomo version of 24Karats PV is cute lol! Full of Chibixile and EXPG dancers Hm...I can't comment much about Super Shine. It's just so so, not one of my favorites So Special is just sooo special. I loove the song and AI's voice. There's a slight different in EVOLUTION PV coz the scenes from Prison Break were deleted, the others are the same.
Surprisingly, the remake songs turned to be nice ^.^ but of course I wouldn't want them to remake too many songs for their Ballad Best (which is just a wishful thinking of course )

Is your order with the magazine? If not, then yeah, pre-order CDs are shipped a day before the release date in HMV ^^

I decided to put my magazine order on hold. I have to spend quite a lot of money this month (and I'm still pissed about the shipping fee). Anyone here got the magazine already?

Is it just me or did you guys notice that Atsushi seemed to have lost some weight? he looks thinner

I still haven't the chance to watch EXILE's TV performances, I'm always so dead tired when I get home T_T

[fobbiyo]

I just watched their MF performances and I really really like the song So Special. LOL. I FINALLY got the chance to actually listen to the song. I love their voices together. Definitely a special song LOL at the 24karats song. HAHAHA. I don't know why but I keep cracking up whenever I see Takahiro and Atsushi trying to look "bad ass yet cool". HHAHAHA.

[cen_ai]

Thanks everyone for all the welcoming messages

Lyly, LOL hope we can spazz more about EXILE here and i'm glad that you're here too at least i have someone who i know hehe I haven't watched their Music Fair with our fave band Tohoshinki. WHat?? They performed So Special??? I love that song....Have to watch it as soon as possible and i'll come here to spazz it with you again soon as i have watched it

[garnet_moon]

5th day sales = 349,782

EXILE members (my husband specifically) invited DBSK members to have a drink one of these days (or probably after the taping, they have already went out)

I watched in streams but lol I forget to get all the interview.. Anyway, Hiro said that DBSK has this "fresh image" also both parties will want to have a collab someday.

qnuy >> ahhh nice! I still have to wait until Friday to get my copy T______T

[swtnovrain21]

did the LJ have a direct link for that song? I've been searching for the original version and haven't found it so far.

Heee... so... the cover for Ballad Best is not Moon, right... but Snow... and it means they will be release the album probably near their next concert nee...

Ah... congrats to EXILE for placing their Album on the first place...

Hum... about the song, Manatsu no Kajitsu, just found out on LJ the Southern All Star version of the song and that Yamapi love the song too... The summer really reflected on that song... Just by listening to the song, I can imagine sea, summer breeze, Fuurin, suika, summer sun around me... *too high imagination that I have*

[garnet_moon]

6th day sales: 380,953
