Reila-The Gazette

WARNING: This song has the power to make you cry. Its kinda suggested that you watch the video before,after and or during this review

This song is just breathtaking and it gets even more sensational when you read the translation (i will post it in a second).

This song is rumored to be about Ruki's Deceased Girlfriend and I have no idea if this is the truth or just another fan rumor. The Songs main focus is obviously the Girl Reila.

*WARNING* There are alot of different translations but I got this one of of Jpopasia.com so dont blame me if you think some words should be different.

*BIGGER WARNING* EVEN THOUGH ITS NOT REALLY A WARNING.......This is my own personal review...If you dont agree with it well that okay :)

Since Ive met you, how many similar wounds have we suffered? How long have we supported each other?

Right there the very first lines of the song and you can just tell the whole song will be deep and meaningful. I think it shows the complexity in a relationship, a relationship with lots of ups and downs. Sadness and pain they put each other through. How much they reliied on each other. (Wow I managed to get alot out of 2 Lines) *by the way Listen to the bass after these lines its just so amazing Reita is very talented*

When you are harsh, I wanted to teach you only me, more than anyone else.

Slight Selfishness it shows how much he cares about her to the point where he wanted her to himself.

Reality burns in the eye, Silent and unmoving, What are you thinking of?

Like waking up from a dream reality isnt always that great now is it? He obviously wants to know what she is thinking of. *lame I know but the lyrics were obvious*

There is no need for reasons, Only if you who belongs to me, can be returned to me.

Shes is the only thing that matters.

More than me who was left behind. You who have become nothingness.

Sad :( In my eyes this is pretty much stating that shes dead or emotionless.

How Painful is it I wonder, Even though nothing has begun yet. Even though I have yet to tell you these words. Where can I go?

In my eyes this one is tricky. How painful it is either that he hasnt told her or how painful it will be when he does. Its hurting him that he hasnt told her.

Reila...Though I try to call your name this voice does not reach you...
Reila Open your eyes and tell me with a laugh that this is all a lie

His voice cant reach her beyond the grave. He doesnt want to belive it's True.

Where shall I go tomorrow?
If you wished for it, I'll go anywhere

He doesnt know what to do but he would do anything for her.

You were always like this, as far as I can remember
Where have you gone to?
Again, you've left me behind to walk along by myself didn't you?

Always Distant? Shes gone and he is left behind alone.

Already, I can't reach you Already, I can't reach you
Finally I've met you but Everything I've endured so far is brimming over, falling as tears

This is the one I have trouble with. In my eyes saying Ive finally met you would mean he has finally died too but I can see that It could be other things as well.

Reila These words that I couldn't say Reila Now, I'll sing to you right here
Reila I loved you more than anyone else
Reila Loving you. Loving you...

Notice the Past tense on Loved and the Current on the last line.

The room where we once stayed
It's the same even now
The doors aren't locked
In the hope that someday you'll return
I'll always wait for you, I understand but
Even now I can see you opening the door

This Is what made me cry. Shes dead (or has left him,However you view this song) and he is still wishing she would walk back through that door.

Tommorow you will surely return right?

*Cries*

..........................................................................

     Alright now for the actual Music of it. First off the bass in this is wonderful, Check it out after the first lines and look for it throughout the song. AND PLUUUUSSS They have a great Piano Part in this. While the video shows Reita sitting at the piano I was told it was Ruki. I am not sure if this is true however.

The Drumming is perfect as always.

Both Aoi and Uruha have a solo in this which is double the awsomeness!!

Aoi's is first its amazing really but arnt all of his. Its Electric and rather God I hate the word but Epic applies here.

Uruha's Is equally (if not better) Awsome. I love the way I can practically picture his fingers moving.

 

The Video itself is breathtaking and Features a Gorgeous girl I suggest you check it out. (its on my videos)

Open your eyes

 Today I was bored and started reading my Music Reviews.........You should have seen my reaction. Okay let me start from the beginning, When I was 10 years old I started to be praised for my writing skills. At one point my teacher even got me to promise that my first Novel would be dedicated to her. I decided at 10 years old that I would be some sort of writer when I was older.

Fifth Grade was a great year for me :) I was on Student Council, I won Star Reader award, and I was nominated for student of the year........When I tell people that they tend to look at me like *What the hell happened to this girl she used to be so Normal*....Truth is.....I WAS A PREP.....*shudders in horror*

When I got to Jr.High I Met a girl that pretty much made me realize what I was Missing. She introduced me to new music and from there I discovered even more music. Music became my passion Still is and Always will be. I was still being Praised for my skills in Reading and Writing but my Mind was to focused on my music.

Last year I discovered J-rock which pretty much made up my mind that Music was my life and I needed it. Eventually I found a way to combine my Music and Writing in Music Journalism. The only Problem here is the stuff I have been posting Isnt what I had in mind.

The Music reviews currently on my profile are Band reviews. I wanted to do band reviews since I knew If I would Jump right in to reviewing the music alot of people wouldnt read it if they didnt know the band. In all honesty I doubt anyone reads any of the band reviews on my profile now so It shouldnt matter.

From now on I will be reviewing songs and Pv's (Mv's) among other things.....(you will understand what the among other things meant later)

Music Review Vol.4

Ever wondered why I only review Japanese Bands????.........NO?
..........Ima tell you anyway These are my Japanese Edition Reviews
....Eventually when im done with all of my Asian bands I will bring
my reviews to America based bands!

..............................

For all Music Lovers who want to know what bands they are missing out on,
Welcome to Music Reviews with Kitten!

Malice Mizer-Despite the fact that I am quite a big fan of Malice Mizer I actually
try not to think of them very often because the first thing that pops into my head is
Kami.This review is going to be a bit different than other reviews simply because
Malice Mizer is too good for a normal review.

This band is commonly divided into 3 eras due to Lineup changes so I guess Ill start
it like this.

Tetsu Era-
Malice Mizer was formed by Mana and Kozi in 1992. They had Tetsu on vocals,
Yu~ki on bass, Gaz on Drums and our dears Mana and Kozi on Guitar and Synthesizers.
Gaz however eventually left the band and Kami joined Malice Mizer as their brand
new drummer.Soon after Tetsu left the band for unknown reasons.
During this era which was from 1992 to 1994 they released 4 demos and their first
Album Memoire which was on Mana's Label Midi:Nette.


Gackt Era
In 1995 Gackt became Malice Mizer's new Vocalist. Switching their sound to more
Progressive Rock sound (a concept created by Mana). The next year they
Released their Second Album Voyage ~Sans Retour~ and in 1997 they signed to Nippon
Columbia. Upon being signed to Nippon Columbia Malice Mizer released their third
Album Merveilles but in 1999 Gackt left the band and went solo months after.
Unfortanatly months after Gackt Departer the bands beloved Drummer Kami met an early
Death.


Klaha Era
Although Malice Mizer kept playing without a vocalist for awhile they eventually
recruited Klaha from the band Pride of Mind once again changing their sound this
time to a more Classical sound. Their last album (one of my favorites) was
Bara no Seidou and they then released a vampire movie called Bara no Konrei
~Mayonaka ni Kawashita Yakusoku~. However after a few more singles this amazing
band decided to call it quits.

Members-

Mana is a oddly mysterious person and one of my favorite J-Rockers. He Rarley ever
smiles are speaks in public often Whispering in the ears of his band members instead.
He belives that his voice speaks through his music. His real name is unknown
and he is often mistaken as a girl. Mana was the unofficial Leader of Malice Mizer
and after its Hiatus he founded his solo Project Moi dix Mois.

Kozi is a Guitarist who plays quite alot of other instruments including Synthesizer,
Piano and Keyboard. When I think of Kozi I can not help but to think of a doll since
most of the pictures of him on my computer are of him dressed up as a Pierrot doll
back in the old Malice Mizer days. Since Malice Mizer went on its Hiatus in 2001
our dear Kozi has been in Eve of Destiny and Dalle.

Truth be told Yu~Ki is always such a mystery to me because I oddly dont know
much about him (which bugs me). Yu~Ki was the wonderful bass player of Malice Mizer
and a very Handsome one at that. Before Malice Mizer he was in the band Zero.
Unfortunatly Yu~Ki has not been active in music since 2004.

Tetsu was the first singer of Malice Mizer and the exact reason he left the band
is unknown. Before Malice Mizer he was in the band Zigzo and after Malice Mizer
went on Hiatus he began working on his solo projects and His band nil.

Gackt-(I will do a Gackt review eventually so you have to wait...but you still
get a picture)

Klaha was the last man to sing in Malice Mizer. After Malice Mizer he went on
to his solo project. Unfortanatly Nothing new has been heard from the dear
singer since 2004.

And last but not least is Kami. Truth be told you cant help but love Kami even
in death. The amazing Malice Mizer Drummer met his early death in 1999 at age 26.
He was described to be Kind-Hearted and Gentle by fans and Hyper by his loving band
members. Despite the fact that it has been over 10 years since dear Kami died
he is still in the hearts of his fans and he always will be in mine.

Albums:
Memoire
Memoire DX
Voyage ~Sans Retour~
Merveilles
Shinwa
Bara no Seidou

Malice Mizer was in my opinion on of the best bands in Japans history.
To this day despite the fact that Malice Mizer has not had anything new
since 2001 they still manage to gain new fans. Malice Mizer has/had Rock and
Classical influences that is obvious through all of their wonderful songs.
Including my favorites:
Beast of Blood
Mayonaka ni Kawashita Yakusoku
Garnet

.....

Thanks for reading!

Music Review Vol.3

 To all the Music Lovers who want to know what Bands have the best Sound,Songs,Styles,and Lyrics. Welcome to Band Reviews with Kitten!!

The Gazette- This band is one of the best by far and one of my Favorite Japanese bands. Not only are all of their Songs, Videos, and Lyrics Amazing but with five Breathtakingly Gorgeous Asian Guys it makes it so hard to stay away. The Gazette was started back in 2002 and has been Kicking Major Ass ever since. Their sound Ranges from softer songs such as Reila and Cassis to Harder songs such as Leech and Hyena.

Members:

Ruki-(Are all Japanese Singers this short). Short and very cute Ruki has a smooth and what I would call a interesting voice that always manages to keep me Entertained.

Aoi- Hot Guitarist with Dirty eyes and a Lipring. Dark hair and eyes makes the Oldest member of the Band seem very Mysterious.He is a Sensational Guitarist and I love and always look foward to his Solos.

Uruha-(I am such a Fangirl to dear Sexy legs). Uruha is the 2nd and younger Guitarist to this band yet he can absoulutly hold his own against Aoi. He is the more Feminine member of the band and enjoys showing off his Sexy Legs and Drinking.

Reita-(Nose band boy). The Wonderful Bass Player of the band is a Gorgeous blonde with Almound colored eyes. As Much as I love dear Reita I always have an urge to see that damn nose.

Kai- My Favorite Drummer ever. He is so cute with Perfect Black hair, a Perfect smile and Dimples that can make anyone melt. The Leader and cook of this group is always very Passionate about his music.

Songs-

Chizuru- This Song has a more Bass Driven sound to it that makes me love it even more. The boys are all in suits in this PV and they look amazing as always. The PV is for the Korean movie 9:56 (Apartment) and manages to keep me transfixed everytime I watch.

Guren-This song is quite Beautiful and so was the PV. I love the lyrics to this song especially for some reason and when Lead singers start Liking things you make a mental note to watch the video. Everything in this song comes together very Nicely.

Filth in Beauty-One of the Harder sounding songs from this band. Filth in Beauty is very Original but then again what do you expect from a song with so much Incest in it. The PV was very Entertaining, Ruki was in Dreads and everyone was Headbanging it was my kind of video.

And there you go The GazettE make sure you check them out cause if you dont you just may regret it..or a piano might fall on your head.If you have not heard of them stop Reading and start Listening.

xoxo Kitten

ASIANS UGH

Okay picture this! Me and one of my besties were at lunch talking and I managed to spot a super hot Asian. I then pondered out loud "do you think they do that on purpose"? She replied "do what"....."Be so damn hot".....She then looked at him for a moment and the next thing I know we are standing in front of him. We asked him if all Asians were hot on purpose. She told them I wanted to know but luckily I dont Blush or get crazy in front of Hot guys so I just smiled,waved,agreed,and talked to him. The point is that he confirms it and this is right out of a hot asians mouth THEY DO IT ON PURPOSE!!!!!!!!!!! THEY ARE ALL HOT ON PURPOSE!!!!!

Music Review Vol. 2

To all the music lovers who want to know what bands have the best sound.songs.lyrics, and style Welcome to Band Reviwes with Miss Kitty Kaitlyn :)

Dir en Grey. If you Know me you are well aware that this Review will be very Biased. Dir en Grey is one of my favorite bands of all time and I think very Highly of them. They in my opinion are the best band to come out of Japan and the best cult band in the world. Dir en grey has been active since 1997 and has been recongized all over the world from America to Germany (ROCK AM RING BITCHES)!!! These days the band members are in thier Thirties yet still manage to Rock harder than most. They seem to keep getting better and better and thier Fanbase is at a constant Growth!

Members:

Kyo: Blond,Short,Badass,Covered in Tattoos, and oh so Kawaii but dont ever say that to his face. Kyo is my favorite Male Vocalist due to his Sensational Voice and Insane stage Presence.

Die:One of Two Guitarist from Dir en Grey and in my opinion one of the cutest. Die has a more upbeat air around him. He is one hell of a Guitarist and one of my musical Idols.

Kaoru: Also known as Kao is one of the two Guitarists in the band. He also Composes most of the bands songs and peforms many solos. It is obvious that Kao has many talents.

Toshiya: The handsome Bassist of Dir en Grey. Toshiya is just so Damn cute and one of my favorite Bassist from Japan!

Shinya: One of the most Beautiful Drummers I have ever seen. He seems to have a very feminine Air around him in my Opinion. He has such a great character and is one of my Favorites.

Songs:(Two of my favorites)

Glass Skin: This has been my favorite song for what seems like a long time. The sound of Kyo's Voice always manages to send chills down my spine. This song in itself is Beautiful and If you do not speak Japanese I suggest you find the English Lyrics as soon as possible.

Vinushka-I love every part of this song from the Acoustic Guitar in the Begining to the Hard rock Guitar work in the rest of the song. You manage to hear all aspects of Kyo's amazing voice in this one and I love how is voice goes up and down at the begining. This song just shows how much talent this amazing Band Has.

And there ya go Dir en Grey has payed at Rock am Ring this year for the third time and hopfully not the last. (I wish to go to Rock am Ring one year).If you have not hear of this band then you should stop reading and start listening.

xoxo Kitten

Band Review Vol.1

To all the Music Lovers who want to know whats bands have the best sound,songs,lyrics,and style welcome to Band Reviews with Miss Kitty Kaitlyn :)

Sadie-Starting out in 2005 this band was my first taste of Japanese Music and still one of my favorites. The were influenced by Dir en Grey and have been rumored to have started out a Dir en Grey Cover band. Unfortunatly Sadie is often Critically compared to Dir en Grey while both Mao and Kyo do have simularities they are not the same person and I can very easily tell the difference when comparing. Sadie like alot of other rock bands in Japan are Visual Kei!

 

Members:

Mao-The lead singer of Sadie is a very cute short blonde that I did have a crush on at one time :)

Mizuki-Tall with Pouty lips is my favorite way to descibe his apearance.He is one of the very talented guitarists in this band.He often talks more than others in interviews.

Kei-The cute little Drummer of the band.I can never get enough of him, he seems to have this odd innocence about him.He is a wonderfull Drummer.

 

Tsurugi-The more feminine guitarist. I am utterly addicted to the way he moves while he is playing.His guitar playing is very delightful and I cant get enough of him. 

Aki-My Favorite  Aki is the very hot bassist of this band. he is normally very quiet and at times some fans dont know what his voice sounds like. Until recently his face was almost always covered by his hair. He also has a lip piercing that has a chain that connects to his ear.

Songs:

Meisai-The first pv and still one of my favorites.Colors in the video are black and white I love the video because of the oddly creativeness to it.The Screaming is great and I love Aki's Arm movements! 5 out of 5

Silent Eve-Compared to other songs by Sadie this one was alot softer but I find that I like it alot. Black and white wardobe in the video the whole thing just works so well together and I love both the video and the song.

Ice Romancer-My all time favorite Sadie video. The lyrics the sound and Mao's voice its amazing. The video is much darker than the others but I love it even more. I love the way they move together earlier in the video.

Kangerou-PURPLE I love the purple undertones in the video as it is my favorite color. The background was white and this is one of my favorite videos because off the zoom ins. In this video everyone gets equal time and I got to see Aki's face :)

Well there ya go thats Sadie and I suggest you go look them up as soon as humanly possible.

Japanese Music

Im in love with you all

JAPANESE!!!! I love JAPAN!! I LOVE HOT ASIAN GUYS!!!! I LOVE THE JAPANESE LANGUAGE!! I LOVE MUSIC!!I LOVE ROCK N ROLL!! add them all together and what do ya get???? JROCK!!! Thats right Japanese Rock for some people that may sound silly but trust me its amazing!!!!! Here are some Jrock Bands that knock my socks off!! When it comes to these bands and these songs it doesnt matter what language you speak you will be blown away!

Dir en grey- Dir en grey is not only the best Japanese Rock band to ever live but they are one of the best cult bands ever (in my opinion dont shoot me). They are amazing and sick and twisted, I fell in love with them right after hearing Glass Skin which is still my favorite song. (plus I love Kyo).They are #1 in my opinion!

Sadie-Some Fans of Dir en Grey probably wouldnt like that I am puting them but I am. Sadie was the first Japanese band I came across and I am still a loyal fan. I love their sound,thier style,and they boys. Some think they are just wannabe Dir en grey. While I do know that the started out as a Dir en Grey cover band and that Kyo is Mao's Idol I dont think they are trying to copy Dir en grey at all. Maybe Mao's voice is sorta like Kyo's but it is soooo not the same and Sadie has there own sound.

The Gazette-Amazingly Hot guys+2 amazing guitarists+an Amazing bassist with a covered nose+Passionate drumming+Sensational Vocals= THE GAZETTE!!! GAZE ROCK IS NOT DEAD! These guys are so talented and are worth it to look up! Plus Uruha has great legs!

Antic Cafe(bou era)- I love Antic Cafe but some really big fans of the band may not like the fact that I dont listen to any of thier new stuff. I refuse to accept that Bou left and I only listen to the songs that still have bou in them. Maybe I am a bigger Bou fan then the whole band but I still love the band. Antic Cafe is what i would condider Rock Pop! They are so cute and so are there songs


Miyavi-Technically not a band and his music is not what I would consider Rock but Still he is AMAZING! He is one of the most succesful solo artist I know of and I practically worship his guitar skills its almost unfair for someone to have that much talent!!!

FAMILY

Guys I know this is random as hell but let me tell you something. Love your Family. I dont care what they do I dont care how horrible they treat you love them anyway cause bad things can happen to them. My Uncle picked a fight with my brother tonight over something as stupid as baseball. My uncle is a rather bitter man and at one point there conversation took an ugly turn when my uncle raised his voice and pointed his finger at my brother and said "I swear on your life that I am Right". My brother cursed him out and took off.MY BROTHER WALKED AWAY and I am very proud of my brother for not hitting him.

So here is what happened I was in the Kitchen and all of a sudden I hear *boom Crash boom*. My brother comes in angry as hell kicks his shoes off (one hitting the cable box and we no longer have sound) and walked passed me flinging his hat in a random direction (it hit me but it didnt hurt) and barged into my parents room to yell. I am a very Empathic person the moment I saw my brother was mad I started to sob. My Mother (in a nightdress) Ran outside to my uncles house (lives next door) and my uncle called Cursing my brother and father out and saying that my brother was not allowed in his yard EVER AGAIN.

So thier were Tears and things were thrown and now my brother feels so guilty telling me that it was his fault and that he wants to apoligise. I AM NOT MY BROTHER I WANT TO PUNCH THAT MAN. I dont even care if i were to go to Juvi. But the truth is even while I am so god damn angry that my uncle would ban my brother from his property I still love that bastard of an uncle and I know my brother does too.

Don't Drown!!..With Music.

Today was a good day for me, I was bored and decided to go swiming and my father joined me. Something that is odd about me is I am 14 years old and I can't swim. Couldn't swim till now......ya thats right. I learned how to swim and I did not drown. God knows if anyone even bothers to read this there going to stare at the words that I have written and wonder why the hell they should care.

To change the odd subject I am working on having 400 songs on my Imeem Playlist. The latest is Katy Perry's Waking up in Vegas I love the song and I am a fan of Katy's.....kinda. I am waiting for the new Escape the Fate music video I am a BIG Fan of theirs. I also say the new MGMT video. I guess you can say it was creative but all of thier videos are!

Well I am pretty much running out of things to talk about...Shocker!

Music = Life!

I tend to discover new songs everyday. This week alone Ive gotten into Black Veil Brides, Breathe Carolina, Alesana, and a little bit of BrokeNCYDE. I always need a place to put it and i figure I would share where I put all my music.

http://www.imeem.com/people/KI6VIfx/playlist/REYdeJWR/wonderful-music-music-playlist/

I have really expanded from a year ago. Its a very wide range I ask that if you do listen to it and you dont like the Jack off Jill at the top that u skip over the sections you dont like. 361 songs!

Bitchy Backgrounds

So I made a wonderful background that I love and I put it on my profile. It came up on my page but the moment I looked to see what it looked like publicly IT WASNT THERE. Talk about pissed me off.
