We Are by ONE OK ROCK

My favorite Jrock band, ONE OK ROCK has a new album set to release this year. I'm not sure when's the exact date tho. Haha! Not really much into Japanese entertainment lately and I'm not much updated with what's happening with all my favorite Japanese artists.

I only heard about this new OOR song and music video because I've been seeing this constantly on my news feed. And I decided to finally watch it last night.

The Way Back (Japanese version) ~ ONE OK ROCK

I honestly am not sure if I like this new OOR song or not, The Way Back. It really reminds me of "Sick Sad Little World" of Incubus from their 2004 album A Crow Left of The Murder. Though, it does not sound entirely alike the Incubus song, I mean, how should I say it? Some guitar parts are kind of similar. You be the judge. But it's nice to know that this song has a Japanese version. This is the kind of OOR that we know. Okay, they have full English songs from the way back, but still, it has the JRock vibe, that ONE OK ROCK signature. Do you get what I mean? But in the 35xxxv album? They sound like any other American bands out there.

Anyways, I've also said this to my friend, I'm not really happy about ONE OK ROCK venturing into the US market, but if they like it, then as a fan, all I can do is to support them if that makes them happy. I just hope that they would not forget their usual stuff. I love their old sound and style. It is the ONE OK ROCK we got to love. I know that a band needs to evolve as it is part of a band's growth, but sometimes it does not turn out in a good way. Okay, people, these are just my opinion and I don't speak for the whole fandom. I know most of the fans are okay with their change. Well, that's their preference and yeah, to each his own.



Btw, this is Incubus' Sick Sad Little World

So what do you think?

PS : It's my dad's 67th birthday today~ happy birthday, daddy!!! Love you and miss you! ♥

ONE OK ROCK PULP ROYALTY

Update!


I got to snag a Pulp Royalty ticket to ONE OK ROCK Live in Manila concert! Yay! I was supposed to be blogging about it last week, but got too lazy to write anything here. As always. I'm lazy as fuck. I know. Anyway, as I was saying, I got the chance to purchase the ticket that I've been wanting to have since the very first day Amuse Inc. announced that OOR will be having an Asian tour next year! You don't know how much stress I was under during those times. It was the most stressful experience I had in my whole fangirl life ever. It was more stressful than being in the "Hunger Games" with Arashi's DVD or album preorders.

Anyway, I really want the Pulp Royalty ticket. I'm not sure if you're familiar with it, but listed below are the perks you'll be getting if you're a PR ticket holder :

* VIP ticket
* free PULP magazine
* free official autographed concert poster
* free souvenir PULP ROYALTY ID
* priority queue for only PULP ROYALTY
* first entry to venue
* first entry to event bowl
* free baggage service
* meet & greet with the band with a photo opportunity

The last one on the list is the one I really wanted the most. The fucking MEET & GREET! It's not everyday that I get to see them or meet them, so basically, as a fan, I want to meet the band, face to face. Touch them. hug them, smell them, kiss them. LOL! But yah know? Who wouldn't want to get the chance when the opportunity is presented to you? I did all my best to get the ticket and I'm so happy that I did! I also want to thank my fandom friends who gave me tips and well who helped me in their own little way. And of course, I also want to say that, I got my PR ticket fair and square. I got money and I paid and I did everything. *winks* They say, if you really want it, you'll find ways!

Now, I can relax, sleep peacefully and wait for January! Thank you so much, Papa God for this!

#ONEOKROCKLiveinManila

JFC! `Till now I can't believe that my favorite JRock band is going to perform live in the Philippines next year for the 2016 "35xxxv" ASIA TOUR! Omigossssh! Like, hello. Who would have thought that they would hear the fans' petition? It felt like I'm just dreaming. They are finally coming here in my country! OMG. I was jumping around the bed with my phone in my hand when I was reading the update / announcement yesterday from Amuse Inc. Asia's Facebook page. I'm finally going to see ONE OK ROCK-sama!! Gahd, I'm willing to do everything and anything just to see them and meet them in person, in flesh!! Especially my dearest Takahiro Moriuchi. Oh, My God! Face to face with TAKA. Imagine that. Ugh. I think I'm gonna die on the spot!

Yes, like I said, I'm gonna score the VIP ticket with the ROYALTY inclusion of Meet & Greet with the band. Good luck to me!

Can't wait to see my loves! ♥
