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! ♥

Dreaming Alone by Against The Current ft. TAKA (ONE OK ROCK)

I'm currently obsessed with this song!!! ♥ And I'm so proud of Taka because I almost couldn't hear his Japanese accent singing an English song!!! :)

DREAMING ALONE

~Against The Current ft. TAKA~

`The story starts laying in the dark with someone new

I’m feeling tired from all the time I spent on you

But I know I’m strong from all the trouble I’ve been through

The story starts where the story falls apart with you

Don’t lie, bright eyes

Is it me that you see when you fall asleep?

Cause I know it’s you I dream about every night

Giving me a feeling like

Love in the summer

Way I’ve never felt with another

Don’t lie, bright eyes

Is it me that you see?

Tell me I’m not dreaming alone

The story starts lying in the dark broken and bruised

I count the scars left in my heart from losing you

And I was wrong but let’s be honest you were too

I miss the part where I was falling hard for you

So don’t lie, bright eyes

Is it me that you see when you fall asleep?

Cause I know it’s you I dream about every night

Giving me this feeling like

Love in the summer

Way I’ve never felt with another

Don’t lie, bright eyes

Is it me that you see?

Tell me I’m not dreaming alone

I can’t take back the things I said

And I won’t say that I regret

Any day that I was yours

Don’t lie, bright eyes

I know it’s me that you see when you fall asleep

And you know it’s you I dream about every night

Giving me this feeling like

Love in the summer

Way I’ve never felt with any other

Don’t lie, bright eyes

It’ll always be you and me, so why are we dreaming alone?

It’ll always be you and me, so why are we dreaming alone?

Living Dolls by ONE OK ROCK

This got to be one of my most favorite songs of ONE OK ROCK!! I always listen to this song as in like almost everyday. ♥

Living Dolls

~ONE OK ROCK~

We are living in the same world?
Boku to kimi Kotae wa naikedo
Unmei no deai sae Dareka no kimegoto de...

If I can touch your heart
I can tell how you feel
Subete tsukurareteiru ki ga shite
Na mo naki hito　Boku igai wa
They're all the same looking like dolls

Ai wo shiru koto de Genjitsu ga mietekita ki ga suru
Ikiru imi wo soba de Te wo nigiri kaesu Kimi ga

Sabitsuiteiru sekai ni utagai wo motsu jibun ga itakedo
The answer you gave me
First love that you brought me…
Kokoro no kumori wa naze？

Taiyou ga nobottemo kimi wa hitomi wo tojitamama
Kono yo de saigo no namida wo sotto nagashite itayo
Kimi wa ayatsuri ningyou jyanakute boku dake no mono dattanda
Kono nukumori wa me dewa mirenaiyo

If I can touch your heart
I can tell how you feel
Subete tsukurareteiru ki ga shite
Na mo naki hito　Boku igai wa
They're all the same looking like dolls

Sabitsuiteiru sekai ni utagai wo motsu jibun ga itakedo
The answer you gave me
First love that you brought me…
Amazora ni hoshitachi ga...

English translation

Are we living in the same world?
Me and you, the answer is no, but
it's a destined meeting, as long as somebody decides

If I can touch your heart
I can tell how you feel
I've got the feeling that everything's being manufactured
people without even names, except for me
they're all the same looking like dolls

Thinking about love, I have a hunch that the truth can be seen
nearby is the meaning of living, hold out your hand to hold, you

In this world that's rusting together, I was holding on to mistrust myself, but
the answer you gave me
the first love that you brought me...
why was my heart overcast?

even as the sun rises, just as you open your eyes
in this world, you've been been gently crying the last tears,
you, you aren't a puppet and because it was just me
this warmth, you couldn't see it with your eyes

If I can touch your heart
I can tell how you feel
I've got the feeling that everything's being manufactured
people without even names, except for me
they're all looking like dolls

In this world thats rusting together, I was holding on to mistrust myself, but
the answer you gave me
first love that you brought me
in the rainy sky there are stars...

Happy 27th birthday, Taka! ♥

Happy happy birthday my dearest Mori-chin! Yes, starting 2 days ago, I prefer to call Takahiro Morita as Mori-chin. Hihi. It sounds so cute. Good luck on your career, I wish you good health, more albums and more world tours in the future! I hope and I wish that you'd visit the Philippines soon! You are amazing! 

Loving you always,

Re:make by ONE OK ROCK

I am currently obsessed with this song!! Taka is so hot I cannot wait to write a novel using him as my hero. I'm gonna write a rock star for a hero once again. Hopefully, I would do so in the future. Perhaps, next year? There are so many ideas in my brain, so many couples, and so many heroes and heroines that want their own stories to be written--- and that would eventually come true if I become "masipag" in writing. LOL. I hope to finish Yuan and Cassie's story this coming holy week! I wish I'd overcome my laziness. XD And TAKA can wait... XD.

Anyway, I vow to make TAKA a hero of my future novel! Actually, the other ONE OK ROCK members are also interesting but then I'm already doing a sort of series of rock band members. I think it's not a good idea making another rock band members stories/novels. Just a bit sad that I only knew about OOR recently. I would have also pegged each members of Vampyres from OOR. But since I haven't written the other Vampyres member's stories, only done with vocalist Shinji and lead guitarist Curtis, I'm thinking of, well, maybe I could peg Drew from Ryota (bassist) and Radley from Tomoya (drummer)...hmm... we'll see. Gambarimasu! :)

I am blabbering too much. I was just supposed to tell something about this song. XD
