^ In the page #112 you can see the similarities.
Yeah, I know what you mean. Is a bit sad ne?

^O^

Although... it's just the back but.... HE IS STIL XTREMEMLY HOT!!!!!!

[mayz]

What I would like to know is why those are your favourite songs. Is there a story behind it?

Fragrance was one of the first songs I ever heard of Gackt. And Kagen was the first live I saw...well, the images of him with that lucky mic stand never left me...the sensuality of it...

Why I like Sakai~Story~ so much is a similar story. When I saw him singing it at the end of the 2004-live...*sigh*...and until then I had only known the instrumental version of it. Afterwards I started looking for the song...it took me quite a while until I got my hands on the CD.

The other three are a little more difficult to explain...those are songs that just raise strong emotions inside of me every time I listen to them.

Well, I love Vanilla because it's the first song I heard that Gackt sang so it left a great impression on me. I also love the PV (also first PV I saw of Gackt) on this song, his blonde hair and movements are just awesome. I won't be able to forget this video in years to come.

Then for Redemption, I loved it immediately when I heard the song for the first time. I was like 'WOW!' when i heard it. For 'Another world', I heard his song for once and when the song ended, the music just keep repeating in my head (not irritatingly), I just can't forget the music.
It was also Mizerable's PV that left an impression on me. Gackt's role as a vampire in the video was great. ( Vampires are one of my interests before I came to know of Gackt) The song was GOOD too. Then I love 'Last song' better than the other songs, the music is just wonderful to listen to. (I love the other songs Gackt sang too, just that these five are the ones that left greater impression on me.)

[Shiva_K]

Although... it's just the back but.... HE IS STIL XTREMEMLY HOT!!!!!!

Haha yep xD

The vampire theme makes him look evil... sexy evil... HEHE.
I couldn't think of anyone that would be able to pull that off besides him.

Agreed!! ^O^

Anyway, I'm lovin` REDEMPTION. Good stuff.

Yep it's really great ^___^

I've always wondered, what's everyone's top 5 fav Gackt songs? ( I know there's no way i can just pick one)

Mine:

1. rain
2. Ash
3. Last Song
4. Leeca

I don't write the fifth one because I can't choose It would be either of Birdcage, Hoshi no Suna, Longing, Love Letter, Freesia Op.2, Redemption, Fragrance and Dears.


rain is the first one because I love the epic tone and the lyrics... And I remember when I watched the rain performance in Kagen no Tsuki; I was totally astonished. Gackt gives all there, that voice, those eyes... and when the rain starts to fall... Such a beautiful image


Ash is great great great. I love it because it starts softly and it goes up and up gradually; then his "Ash" shout and the guitar... And the "Just make sure to never forget this sadness by tracing over the marks of those tears with a knife" is just... woah


Last Song always transmits me a lot of emotions when I listen to it. And when I say always, is always. I get a lump in my stomach, especially when I watch The Sixth Day and Seventh Night performance...


Leeca. Waaa this song is so nice Is very sweet... And Gackt singing it is so sweet as well... I would like very much see him singing live this song again.
And the strange thing is that I've always loved to listen to this song specially in the morning (like when I go to the Uni early). Later I read the lyrics and in fact they talk about a nice morning in a park



Ah! My boyfriend's top 5

1. Redemption
2. Cube <- I love the Requiem et Reminiscence performance
3. Lust for Blood
4. Future
5. Noesis

all his pictures seems to say SEX SEX SEX

^ I heard that he plans on staying single for a while. I guess he`s not interested in anyone or whatever. Maybe he`ll just stay single forever...XD

Indeed he said he doesn't want to marry again ^__^

[HoneyBee19]

^ I love Amber's fanfic Melissa ^O^

hmm... I'll have to check it out when I get the time

Umm it's just because when I like something (music, anime, etc) I love to look for pics of it. And well... I like Gackt a lot a lot a lot, so I love look for his pics

Thats the same with me.. when I get interested in something I look up as much info and pics about it as I can. It can be a band I just heard of and within a week I'll know what all the memebers look like and their names.

Now that you mention it ...well it was my own stupidness...the bread already smelled funny...*shrugs*

That makes me think of something I would do..
Me: Does this smell funny to you?
Friend: Yea, maybe you shouldn't eat it.
Me: *munch munch* Hmmm?..Oh well.
And then when I would tell people the story later I get the "It's only something Melissa would do"

Oh and I have a question about Gackt: Was he married before? Did he dated any celebrities? Is he single or attached right now?

Just want to know more about him! Hehe

If you want to know more about him you can read his autobiography here

I've always wondered, what's everyone's top 5 fav Gackt songs? ( I know there's no way i can just pick one)

This is going to be hard. Wait I know.. I'm going to do two separate lists... faster songs and slower songs
Faster songs
Vanilla because it was the first Gackt song I heard.
U+K beacause I cannot listen too it and be mad. If I'm having a really bad day I get home and put this song on and blast it and jump around my room (or I watch the performance). And when I listen to it at school I really have to hold back from dancing around (I almost did it in my physics class last year, not like the teacher would have noticed)
Nine Spiral Gackt's voice just oozes sex, and it sounds sort of frantic (like Asrun Dream and Kalmia) and I like the craziness of it.
Luna I can't really describe what it is about this song...
Lust for Blood/White Eyes/ Papa lapped... These three are equal, when I hear them I get this feeling over my whole body and no other song really does that.

Slower songs
Last Song (both versions) The only song to ever make me cry.
Emu ~for my dear~ it makes me think there's something more to the song.. and I love falling asleep to it.
Fragrance we've seen the performance and I hope to be his microphone stand in my next life
RainI just fell in love with it instantly, and you can feel the emotion coming through the speakers.
Orange no Taiyo There voices harmonizing together...

Whoa that was long... gomen

[AmberKid]

hmm... I'll have to check it out when I get the time

Oh, just poke me and I'll send it to you, ne?

That makes me think of something I would do..
Me: Does this smell funny to you?
Friend: Yea, maybe you shouldn't eat it.
Me: *munch munch* Hmmm?..Oh well.
And then when I would tell people the story later I get the "It's only something Melissa would do"

Usually I'm very cautious...Now it's my mother who throws everything away that has passed the expiration date...

Nine Spiral Gackt's voice just oozes sex, and it sounds sort of frantic (like Asrun Dream and Kalmia) and I like the craziness of it.

Yep, I agree. I just LOVE that song...It's on my mp3-player since I own it and it will stay on there...this song has me grinning like mad...it is a very powerful song, full of energy.

Fragrance we've seen the performance and I hope to be his microphone stand in my next life

Oh yes...that lucky mic stand... damn...only Gackt can pull off a thing like that...I mean he made love to that...thing! *nosebleed*

Orange no Taiyo There voices harmonizing together...

Absolutely...There is such harmony between their voices...

[OBSCURE Sin]

Orange no Taiyo There voices harmonizing together...

Hyde and Gackt like harmonizing together >D

[AmberKid]

Hyde and Gackt like harmonizing together >D

*rofl* Indeed.

Gah, it's late and I have a looooong day ahead of me.

Oyasumi!

[catchlight]

Wee! What a great thread! This is my first post and I must say--I'm in Gackt Heaven some of you guys sure keep this place busy..and the rest of us are really grateful! Here are a few that I like...

[ChocoMilkShake]

^ *_______* Sigh ...

Vanilla because it was the first Gackt song I heard.
Slower songs
Last Song (both versions) The only song to ever make me cry.
Orange no Taiyo There voices harmonizing together...[img]

Your list/reasons are similar to mine!
Vanilla --- I saw Gackt perform this Heyx3 before listening to anything by him. I was... blown away to say the least. (anyone has a fav version of Vanilla? hmmm, I can't decide)
Last Song --- I loved this from the very first listen. It makes me cry (sometimes) and no matter how many times I listen to it, it makes me sad.
Orange no Taiyo --- ditto on the harmonizing. It gives me delicious chills just listening to them.

I like the rest of Gackt's songs but these are the songs that come to mind immediately if asked about favourites.

[Requiem]

Credit to old Gackt thread.

Come back, Shiva K and everyone who contributed previously

In the 2nd to last picture he's smoke a cigarette with a 40 by his side. What a G. Too bad he looks like a woman.

[XxIllicitxX]

I dont understand how hes considered a sex icon when he looks more feminine than the average girl?

Sorry hope that didnt offend anyone

Well I don't particularly find big muscular rugged men with hairy chests all that attractive either, in fact it's kind of repulsive, so you know... Different strokes for different folks!

I love feminine men...

[OBSCURE Sin]

Well I don't particularly find big muscular rugged men with hairy chests all that attractive either, in fact it's kind of repulsive,

yeah, eww

I like the gentler looking guys, with gentle faces. Pretty boys XD

[AmberKid]

yeah, eww

I like the gentler looking guys, with gentle faces. Pretty boys XD

Yep, me too. Definitely.

But there are alot of people among my friends that do not share my taste. Bad for them...more pretty boys for me.

I agree with you Haylea ^__^


Welcome to the thread azn@h3art!! Thank you for the pics That two you has posted from the latest Arena are edited and posted a few pages ago (I removed that small stain he has in his beautiful face because the scanner ).



Amber today you have radio-work ne, ganbatte~ ^O^

anyone has a fav version of Vanilla? hmmm, I can't decide

My fav' is the original ^__^




You guys can already read February Newsmaker Interview chapter 2 and chapter 3

I: The single will also be released on 25 January. This collaboration is not as simple as providing the soundtrack; you even attended the press conference during your tour. You are really taking on a lot of (projects), aren’t you?
G: Nothing like that at all. I’m just… a poor man with free time in my hand. (laughs)

Good joke Gakuto


Other thingies. This one about Longing

I: The digital work produces a very warped time space in this song.
G: That effect is very mysterious. When you listen to normal music, there is a rhythm to it, right? If you destroy the rhythm, the music breaks easily too. But if you can make the rhythm sound like it’s broken without actually breaking it, it will create a very unbalanced music. Though it’s not broken, it sounds as if it is. That’s really great.

Agreed.

Q.14 Name me an anime that you like in year 2005!
Ans: Probably “ハウルの動く城” (Howl’s Moving Castle)

I'm really looking forward to watching this movie long since (I love Miyazaki's works). We have to wait till 3th when it'll be released in movie theathers. Anybody has seen the trailer of Gedo Senki? I love it ^__^

Q.26 The language you intend to master currently?
Ans: I’ve been revising my Chinese and Korean lately. I read grammar books alternately every day.

Gakuto...

Q.28 What is piano to you?
Ans: I wonder what it is… even now there is still a hesitation before I start playing. It’s an instrument for blocking memories and traumas, I think. It blocks my trauma. So there is a (certain) resistance to it.

I can't help thinking of this whenever I see him playing piano.

Q.37 Complex?
Ans: My short legs

Gakuto!! I have to say again that I love your legs to death?

Q.38 Dream car?
Ans: Birdcage

Very nice Maserati indeed

Q.44 What do you aim to do as an entertainer?
Ans: [...] I think what I can do is to make the other person take one step forward into the future. That is why I create as much place where fans can communicate with me as possible. They can send messages to me through my official homepage and everybody’s voice can reach my PC. I receive around two thousand mails in one day. Of course I read all of them every day. I can’t reply to all, but I will when I see an interesting mail. There are also times when I was encouraged by those mails. They give me the strength to live. Not all of the things we do will be rewarded, but even so, if there are such moments that can make me think “I’m really glad I’m doing this,” then those are truly happy moments.

I'm so happy about this...

[AmberKid]

Amber today you have radio-work ne, ganbatte~ ^O^

Yep, meeting is at four. I'm not very motivated to go, but I will. *hugs*

You guys can already read February Newsmaker Interview chapter 2 and chapter 3

I will read it when I get back home tonight. *looking forward to it*

[mayz]

I'm so happy about this...

Me too. I love/respect celebrities who treasure their fans. It's because of their fans that they can become famous! (Of course not entirely because of fans. Their talents and abilities play a part too.)

[OBSCURE Sin]

ahhh. I just felt like saying, I was so stressed and upset just now. Schoolwork, people...all just driving me nuts.

But I put Gackt music on and it made me feel better


<3 you Gackt

[Lent]

I've always wondered, what's everyone's top 5 fav Gackt songs? ( I know there's no way i can just pick one)

What I would like to know is why those are your favourite songs. Is there a story behind it?

1) Tsuki no Uta... it´s really one of those very early Gackt songs that I came across and it gave me shivers down my spine when I listened to it for the first time, just for the sheer beauty of it and Gackt´s high pitched voice when he actually sings Tsuki no Uta... and the live from Jougen Tour was a heartbreaker too

2) Oranji no Tayou, for obvious reasons, the harmonizing of the voices and the significance it had for Moon Child

3)Fragrance...because it´s pure sex ...

4)Birdcage... I love, love, love Birdcage... it´s raw and dark and all of that, very powerful...

5)Wah.... the last one.... would be HoshinoSunaAshKiminotamenidekirukotoMissingKonodaremoinaiheyadeAsrundreamlapisleecaEmuMirrorUncertainMemoryFreesiaKonoYorugaOwaruMaeNi .... hey, that was easier to decide than I thought! ...

I love feminine men...

Dito

[HoneyBee19]

Oh, just poke me and I'll send it to you, ne?

*poke*

Usually I'm very cautious...Now it's my mother who throws everything away that has passed the expiration date...

Not me. I went out to eat with a few friends and one of them said her food tasted bad (sour) so I said let me try. It was terrible. And as far as expiration dates.. if it doesn't smell and the colour hasn't changed and its still with in a week of the expiration date I'll still eat it.

I love feminine men...

Me too... not overly feminine though. Gackt is about as far down the spectrum as I'll go. It's strange though my mom and I were talking about that a little while ago and she said a lot of women are attracted to men with feminine features. I had said that I like guys with soft faces and looked more pretty/beautiful, and she was attracted to guys with longer hair. I'm not sure how true what she said is, but I haven't found to many people who would strongly disagree with it.

[AmberKid]

*poke*

You have PM.

Not me. I went out to eat with a few friends and one of them said her food tasted bad (sour) so I said let me try. It was terrible. And as far as expiration dates.. if it doesn't smell and the colour hasn't changed and its still with in a week of the expiration date I'll still eat it.

Oh...I really look at my food now...I'd rather throw something away that was still edible instead of feeling sick again...it was hell, I tell you.

It's strange though my mom and I were talking about that a little while ago and she said a lot of women are attracted to men with feminine features.

I'm not sure how true what she said is, but I haven't found to many people who would strongly disagree with it.

Funny...a friend of mine had a theory about my preferances in men...she said she sees a connection between my relationship with my girlfriend (that ended last summer) and my liking of men with a feminine touch.

Gah, my mother just came in and started reading this over my shoulder...

Anyway...I don't know if there is truth to that theory...
