Hiyuu, peoples! *salutes* Welcome to Ohoho!, my crazy music obsession/rant time! ^_^ Fear it! FEAR! *poke poke*
I'll mostly talk about Japanese artists, 'cause y'know, I'm crazy like that. And I like Japanese music. :B Mostly J-pop, not so much J-rock unless I feel like it. Hehehe. I'll be talking about my favorite artists/bands, which songs I like and whatnot, and most likely just rant about how cool they are! Or something! I might just even talk about individual songs as opposed to the artist/band! So here we go! Today's featured band is:
Ya-Ya-yah!
Really, who saw THAT one coming? XD Hahaha.
Ya-Ya-yah is a part of Johnny's Jr, who has several other bands like NEWS, Arashi, Kat-tun and lots of others. Ya-Ya-yah is less popular than those other ones, though. D= But oh well!
As of currently, it has four members:
Yabu Kota
Yaotome Hikaru
Ayukawa Taiyo
Yamashita Shoon
It used to have two other members, Akama Naoya and Hoshino Masaki.
They're a boy band [obviously], and they just sing and dance. They don't play instruments, they sing and dance. But hey, they're cool enough to do it. XD My personal favorite of the bunch is Yabu Kota [WHOA, who saw THAT coming? ], who is completely ADORABLE! ^____^ I love him! Bet y'all couldn't tell though, huh? :B
Yabucchi is poplular 'cause he's so kyuuuute. ^^ As is Shoon, 'cause he's just hot like that. XD Taiyo's INSANELY tall, which I find absolutely HILARIOUS for NO reason WHATSOEVER! And Hikaru's just so luffable! <33
They formed in 2001 or 2002 or so, and the band consisted of Yabu, Taiyo, Shoon, Naoya and Masaki. Hikaru didn't come until around 2003. Naoya and Masaki left around late 2004, I think? [don't quote me on that - I'm probably wrong.]
They've done several things, though they haven't released all that much stuff... they've got a single, Yuuki100%, thier first single EVER, when the band still had Naoya and Masaki, but no Hikaru. They do TONS of concerts, both with and without the other JJ groups. In 2003[or '04], Yabu, Hikaru, Taiyo, and Shoon did a musical called 'Stand By Me,' based off of the book 'The Body' by Stephen King. [there's a movie of it, too, only with English actors and whatnot. It's supposed to be pretty good. ^^]
Also in '04, Yabu, Hikaru, and Taiyo were in a series called 3 Nen B Gumi Kinpachi Sensei, the 7th season of the series. ^^ It's a highschool drama! Shoon also was in a production of West Side Story once... I forgot when, though. ^^;;
Ya-Ya-yah also has thier own show! ^^ It airs in Japan [unless you get spayshul stuff and whatnot...] only, though... ;o; *sob* They do all sorts of weird stuff on it... like once, they went to an onsen [hot springs], and thier cellphones were held hostage! Well, not really... but they were dropped into the water if the member of JJ lost at a game. Fortunately, they weren't REALLY thier cellphones, but y'know... that must've given them quite a scare. ^^;;; "You can't really have a social life in Japan without a cell phone" - Miho, Megatokyo. I wouldn't really mind, but if it were my iPod... eheh. ^^;;;;; *dies* There's a cute like... sub-show in it, too, called AiQ, starring Shoon and Massu [Takahisa Masuda]! It's really funny - Shoon is a working husband, Massu's a housewife, and when Shoon comes home from work, there's always food on the table. BUT! He has to pass these weird test-like thingies that kinda test your IQ or whatnot [get it? AiQ? IQ? AHAHAH! XD ...Sorry.]. Shoon always fails, and Massu gets to eat the food! ^_^;;; Poor Shoon-san!
I'd write a list of songs, but y'know, that's crazy, 'cause they have so many! ^^;;; Some of my favorites, though, are:
Just Wanna Lovin' You [^___^ LOVE that song.]
Kuroi Asa Shiroi Yoru [originally by Arashi, I think. ><; I forgot. Again.]
Stompin' [So much fun!]
Angel Come To Me [Crazy Japanese accents! ^^]
Mayonaka no Answer [t3h smez. Hehehe~]
Words Of Love [^^ Fun Happy song!]
[basically anything performed by Yabu solo...hehehe. X3]
Have a Super Good Time [XD Such a cute song!]
Top Secret [Originally by um... someone else. =.=; Forgot who...rawrg.]
Yeah... Lots of favs, but y'know... they're good! ^^ Yabu and Hikaru's voices have changed a lot. ^^ If I didn't know it was them and heard one of thier songs from 2002 vs 2005, I'd probably thing they were different bands! O.o Their voices are a lot lower. ^^ But y'know, that's life, su. *nod nod*
