^ Ang alam kong standard ng Kouhaku sa pagpili ng participants, dapat successful ang artists for that particular year. Pero may mga motmot siguro sa selection committee who probably equate 'success' with 'profitability', which should not be the case because people like AKB48 and Leah Dizon are only popular (profitable), not necessarily good (successful). Marami na rin nagsusulputang year-end concerts. If the Kouhaku won't raise its standards, baka hindi na ito ang panoorin ng fans -- ung ibang shows na lang na may quality performers.
parang mas na-excite pako sa Music Station Super Live kaysa rito kahit na magpeperform ang X Japan dito.
boo!!! no YUI!!!
kaya nga eh. considering the fact na ang taas-taas ng sales ng Flavor of Life ni Hikki at Yorokobi no Uta, Keep The Faith ng KAT-TUN >_< even Love so Sweet and Happiness, ang taas din ng sales.
ang onti ng JE groups, walang hikki, walang Laruku >_<
Ako naman, siguro OK lang ung hindi masyadong maraming JE. Or maybe, they can just do a Hello Project type of performance. Ung maraming groups sa isang performance medley. Dapat kasi may balance ng genre ng performers, iba iba ung musical style. Di lang puro pop, IMHO lang naman un.
YUI should be there... boo...
Eeek! Ala nanaman Laruku! Most likely they received an invite to perform pero they declined it...due to the Theater of Kiss tour perhaps. The last time they were in Kouhaku was 2000 pa. Huhuhu!
it's possible, pero kahit na. >_< dapat andun parin sila. hehe ^_^
sa tingin o pareho lang. hehe. mas marami lang JE groups sa MSSL at may enka dingers sa Kouhaku. ^_^
