These are Kanjani8. They're from Osaka, for those of you who are Kansai-fanciers (I know you're out there! But I still don't see what's so sexy about "Nandeyanen!").
(There used to be 8 of them, but now, as you can see, there are only 7, because one of them was a naughty boy and got himself suspended; but that's another story.) They're part of the squamous mass that is Johnny's Entertainment, but they're... really very unique. They're enormously fun, actually write very good songs themselves, give sparkling live performances full of energy, and, importantly to me, they always seem to be having a fantastic time, and that gives them a great vibe. I'm telling the truth when I say it was genuinely the music that got me into them, and it was the joyfully endearing crack that made me stay. The crack, and the obvious love they all have for Kanjani8. ♥ Let's begin, shall we?
This took me 3 days. Please click? XD( Let me take you to... Funky Town Osaka! )...And I think I'm done. XD I've included as many highlights as I could cram in, and hopefully you'll check a few of them out! In case you were overfaced by the length of this post, here's some unmissables:
-
Subaru singing Greedy. Just gorgeous. (
Here's a vid of the performance too. Ignore the fact that Subaru really is too small to wear such a big fur coat. XD)
-
Them all getting electrocuted whilst dressed as women.
-
Do You Agree. Super-energetic live performance of a great song.
-
One. The song that really got me into them, the song that gave me the current title for my LJ; my current ringtone. XD
