[Culo]

[MY BABY DADDAY P-GWIDDLES]

Toshi's voice is beautiful.

Toshi's voice is beautiful.

Like a goat in the morning misty field.

OUCH
I thought it was a thread about Gackt

[MY BABY DADDAY P-GWIDDLES]

Oh are we talking about Gackt now?

[nekki_chibi]

Why not
I think he's around the same age as yoshiki now

[MY BABY DADDAY P-GWIDDLES]

Gackt is a vampire so he could be like 200 years old and we wouldn't know

[Culo]

since when stupid media whores are vampires?

well i dont care anyway vampires are overrated with all that ane rice shit, gay stuff

Well I think that, like any influencial band, they are overrated. For example, people attribute all of 90's music in America to Nirvana. Nirvana was good, yes, but they are definitely not godly.

Though in this case, X Japan does have SOME merit to the claims of fangirls. Art of Life, anyone?

That's not Miyavi.  I hate Miyavi.   I don't remember who that is, actually.

I think X japan suck.
Don't know know how they could have influenced anyone, really.
IMO, people back in THE GOOD OLD DAYS had terrible taste of music.

[signal to noise]

i never even realized we were doing this vocalist run down. lets go through classic jrock vocalists now and scale them...

Sakurai > Ryuichi > Gackt > Toshi > Miyavi?!

and that is that.

X is great and exactly where they wanted to be, Have you seen any X sheet music!? The piano pages look like they were tossed in a kaliedoscope and set in crazy time frames. But..., there's always time for parodies.
