Is nice to hear him saying señorita, he pronounces it very well (at least in the recorded version) ^O^
yeah his spanish pronunciation is good or he practiced it a lot to said señorita instead of senorita. to me it is an easy sound, and i don't understand why some people have a lot of problems to pronounce the letter Ñ.
Um....I love him and all but why is he wearing an animal on his outfit?!? Ewww.
i hate that dead animal in his shoulder. my favorite outfit of the daite señorita perfs is the one with the NEWS jjacket.
yeah this was already posted but it doesn't hurt to see them again. he has such a hot body, to me right now he has one of the best bodies in the je world.

and this ladies is how a real man's body looks like

so sexy that you want to jump over him

he reminds me of akira here

Yamapi has his own fan base in Thailand already. He might even be more like thatn GOlf and Mike by Thai people. ehehhehe
Definitely not. No foreign stars are more popular than local stars here in Thailand...of course, there's always a "language barrier" between Asian countries. Popular local artists usually sell about 500,000 - 1,000,000 copies per album (in the MP3 era) while popular foreign artists can sell only about 50,000 - 150,000 copies per album. Golf-Mike will certainly bring Yamapi more well-known in Thailand. Just in this week, GM have brought the name, Yamapi, up on Thai TV news for over 6 times as we're talking about one of the hottest artists here. (GM won Popular artist of the Year early this year and last month they also grapped an award for Most Popular Breakthrough Artist from Channel [V] Awards.) And I bet Kitty GYM's song will be the best-selling JE's single ever in Thailand.
I don't know how you came up with the idea.
P.S. This is not to offend 'cause I whole-heartedly agree that Yamapi is so hot and very talented but I just want to clarify about the market strategy that JE are doing.

Didn't Golf and Mike made into front page newspaper with Yamapi? And Didn't Golf and Mike was on tV in Japan with Yamapi? It's the same as Golf and Mike brought the name Yamapi to Thai tv. It's a both side. Yamapi is known by Thai fans and Golf and mike is known by Japanese Fans but both of them are not yet have fame in that country.
I'm not going to say that this single will be best selling in Japan nor Thailand because I have to see the result first. Even though in the past Yamapi's both Single Seishun Amigo and Daite Senorita have sold a lot.
And I think more of Yamapi's fans is shocked and still shocked and still coudn't accept (it's different from supporting) this temporary group than GM's fans. I can't accept this temporary group but I support this group. I have nothing against Golf and Mike. In other word I do like them but just not into them. This temporary group really shocked me deeply. Even Yamapi's Thai fans couldn't accept it. Some accept is but many didn't. But they're trying their best to support Yamapi and will not talk bad about GM.
kate666, I think you're Thai, right?
Also I need to ask you one question. Did they tell the best selling album of the year and how much Golf and Mike have sold? Nothing bad about that, I'm just concern.

How would you define "more like" ?
The number of copies sold I posted above was the matter of estimation because they never told how many exactly artists have sold. But foreign artists' always report their selling figures in Thailand at around 50,000-150,000 per album....I haven't heard they can do more than that....Rain's album has sold here 150,000. But in contrast, if a Thai artist can sell only 150,000, that's called "a flop" and will be definitely turn down by the record companies on the next release but hey....GM are having 2 full albums waiting!
It seems that you've been receiving one-sided info from Thai ppls who don't like GM. Well, nevermind. But, do you think JE would group up Yamapi with non-profitable artists ? Aren't they smart enough ? Would you want to sell your music to Thai Yamapi's fans who don't like GM....OR...sell your music to the overall Thai people ?
And for your factial information, Yamapi hasn't officially released a single here so this will be his first time in Thai music market. (And I hope his previous releases will follow.)
BTW, you're not in Asia , right ? 'Cause if you're in Asia, you would have known that popular foreign artists can't sell more than popular local artists 'cause of the language barriers. (We're talking about 'popular' artists, pls note.) This rules can be applied to China, Japan, etc....any countries with their own music scenes. So, if you wanna really invade one of these countries, you need to have some elements of that country in your music.

maybe it is just me but both of you are sayin the same things with different words. both yamapi and GM will receive benefits from this unit. yamapi will be more known in thailand and GM will be more known in japan. its imposible to think that either of them will be more popular than the other in their own countries. i mean during their Kitty GYM activities GM will be the popular ones in thailand while yamapi will be the japanese guy next to them, and in japan it will be all yamapi and GM will be the 2 thai guys.
Asia is such a difficult market because of language barriers, unlike america were we only speak 3 language english, spanish and portuguese... and if you know spanish you understand portuguese and viceversa because they sound similar.

What? I never say Yamapi sell a lot in Thailand and that international artist sell more in Thailand. I might not made myself clear but I was saying Yamapi single sold a lot in Japan.
Of Course, I would love the album to sell it to the overall fans.
In conclusion, both side have the benefit.
What I say by like is that many Thai fans already like Yamapi before he was even in news with Golf and Mike. Even Golf and Mike's Thai fans know who the heck Yamapi is. Soon after the single come out he then will be popular in Thailand, I hope. And by popular is that right now Golf and Mike is popular in Thailand (I never denied that case) because they're new and they're the trend in Thailand. It's just the same in Japan, Yamapi is popular but Golf and Mike is well like by Japanese fans too but they're not yet popular. That is why Johnny said that Golf and Mike is not yet popular so this will be a good project for them.
Of course JE wouldn't group Yamapi with some non-profitable artist.
I don't know where this conversation is going.lol Becuase all I have say in the first place is that Yamapi might be more like by Thai fans. I'm not talking about popularity. Then I reply to your comment.
No such a hard feeling though, it's just a discussion.

I'm downloading that whole Music Station, so I guess I'll can upload the Yamapi perf.
Yes, please. I would greatly appreciate the link. Thanks so much!
P.S. Is anyone watching Kurosagi right now? How is his character in that drama? I saw some clips and thought he looked HOT. To me, he's the only manly J-actor.
