On that note, who has recommendations for external disc drives š
What if I made a bunch of side by side gifs between Nomura Mansai's dances in Onmyouji and Yuzuru's Seimei skate...
Oh no I've decided to start working on my Phantom of the Opera retellings again, I have things to dooooo š
Happy Birthday Sakurai Atsushi!!!šÆšÆšÆššÆšÆšÆšāā¬ļøThe best (studio and live) vocalist ever!
The most beautiful man to have ever lived, both inside and out. Sweet, funny and absolutely gorgeous with the voice of an angel, what more could you ever want? Of course, he was also spicy as one could be on stage, and the only thing that I would ever change about him is the duration of his lifespan. He deserved to be with us longer, but I hope that wherever he is, he can be happy and at peace. Perfection does not exist, but nobody has ever reached as close to perfection as Sakurai Atsushi.
Today, he would have been 59, an age he should have reached as it is not even that old yet, but alas.
For him, I have flushed my entire sense of shame down the toilet. I sung Happy Birthday to his photo on my memorial. And, another thing I sang afterwards:
š¶Yooouuu aaare, you are my sunshine my onlyyy. Yooouuu aaare, you are my sunshine so so sweet. Yooouuu aaare, you are my sunshine my onlyyy. Yooouuu aaare, kimi wa watashi no taiyooouuuš¶šš
That part of Kyouki has been stuck in my head, and it fits him perfectly. He is my sunshine, without him and BUCK-TICK I would have never had this much joy in music. They are everything to me.
Today I will wear a necklace with a round pendant containing an image of a cat on a crescent moon. The cat and moon both black as the sky is a cloudy gray. I have no BUCK-TICK merch to wear sadly, other than 2 beanies that are so tight they cause a headache. And... I refuse to wear the plush pins, I won't let anything happen to those. But this cat necklace is the best thing I own that reminds me of Atsushi.
Besides that, today I will listen to only songs that contain Atsushi's vocals and tonight I will watch a tour to celebrate that he has existed.
I'm sure he's out there somewhere running a cat cafe in heaven. Back with his own babies that he had lost in the past. Issay must be with him too, I'm sure of it.
Seimei |Ā Shigeru Umebayashi (ę¢ ęč)
Onmyoji I and II OST
In the past couple of months I have become an ardent fan of the figure skater Yuzuru Hanyu for numerous reasons. I admire his courage in the face of unimaginable pressure as an athlete, but above all, his ability to make the sport an art form in itself always renders me speechless.Ā Of his routines, his free skate from last season with which heĀ smashed the world records again and again (x, x) is still my favourite.Ā
The music, of course, is a huge part of why the program is so critically acclaimed. It is a medley of soundtracks from the moviesĀ Onmyoji andĀ Onmyoji II.Ā It is a glorious mix of grandeur and tranquility, and Yuzuruās elegant but powerful interpretation of the music just gets the blood pumping (check out thisĀ step sequenceĀ to bless your eyes). The percussion-heavy section which features the songĀ Rambling God (čć¶ćē„) is my favourite.
I have spent weeks hunting down the individual soundtracks because they are not easy to find without knowing Japanese, but I finally found them here! In the process I also found a whole treasure trove of other songs from the prolific composer Shigeru Umebayashi, and all his works are treasures.
Have a listen!

*He means there Electra Complex, Oedipus Complex and GSA.
** I guess it was meant to sound like a joke, since those complexes in Japanese sound like āfathcomā or ābrothcomā and it was āfamicomā. However, in Japan, famicom is also the name for the Nintendo Entertaiment System.
***Itās such a stupid sentence. Also can be translated as āIām particulary desinterested in being fashionableā.
****A Japanese alcoholic beverage, similar to vodka.
***** That word has several meanings:
imperial palace; shrine;
woman of imperial lineage who has borne a child;
elderly woman of imperial lineage
I donāt know which one he meant.
******OR hair. God knows.
