By now Prominence has gone on sale, and you've probably heard it?
I was thinking of writing commentary for all of the songs, but that was pretty aweful (chuckle), so I made it "I'll explain some number of songs."
I won't be accepting complaints at this time (laughs)

FUTURE LIFE
It starts with a dark, sorrowful feeling from the first song (laughs), but the image for this song, it's a feeling like
[looking at the world after you've died, after you've become nothing more than a spirit and ceased to exist].
It's a gloomy thing to think about, huh (wry smile) A-hyuck.

PROMINENCE
Gosh this song's great! It makes me swell with emotion.
Don't you all like this type of song too? This kind is my [royalty road] kind of song.
And as far as orientation goes, maybe it's a "Testament" typish song I guess. The sun's not made of solid matter but vapor you know!

IGNITION
Gosh, this song's great too!(laughs) Full throttle [negative aura].
An evil demon fighting spirit overflowing from every inch of your body! feeling.
It's different from PROMINENCE, and your feelings should rise in a "negative" direction says I (laughs) I like it a bunch, personally and agressively.
Don't pay attention to my singing (wry smile)

LIFE
The prototype for this song was something I wrote 7 years ago.
But when I tried re-arranging it, it was pretty cool, and I adopted it on this album.
I guess I've liked those kinds of dark, lonely melodies from a long, long time ago. Does that mean I'm a dark person too...?

RAY
Ehh....again, gosh this song's great too!(laughs)
I think the tension's pretty high in this one.
Maybe this is the bright song on the album.

EUPHORIA
A song with a beautiful but transient (is it really?) feeling.

QUASAR
I think this song's appropriate for the end of the album.
I wanted a glorious song to wrap up the album with, and so I made this one. The theme is [Returning to nothingness.]

And with that, those who haven't bought [PROMINENCE] yet, please do so before it runs out. There aren't many left.
Oh, and speaking of which, the re-issued INNER UNIVERSE copies have sold out too. Thank you.

Recently there have been a lot of days where I've went without touching my keyboard, and my motivation to write music hasn't been all that high,
but I'm thinking of turning to my next work or something or other and writing songs now!

I just bought Kocha a new Cat House for the winter.
If only he'd like it....

In shoulder width supreme.

10.18 Hora (The Answer)

The answer? Well, since I didn't know the question and Hora'd designated himself as the answer, I asked my dad to make one up.
So his was "What'do you want"....and lolz. My brother's was "How many fat people does it take to screw in a lightbulb?"...
Anyway, I'm glad he's still writing music. Really and truly (Sweetheart was boring though).

Well, for those who don't know, I usually translate Hora's diary entries elsewhere first, and then copy them over here.
But there was some unfinished business this time. So I'll take the liberty of copying it over here and adding the conclusion.

As I previously wrote:
...that's my dream kind of... To stop being. Not to die, but just to [not be] anymore, or never have been.
Except yesterday mom brought home a giant Superman cut-out figure,
and so now I have decide where in the house it'll be the most annoying and put it there.
Maybe a doorway. Then, having left my mark on the world, it'll be okay to disappear I think.

Upon having said this, I was given some wonderful suggestions as to where I might place it...
Above the stove, over the kitchen table, etc. But eventually, I decided upon.....

The doorway to the bathroom.
That way, if anyone ever really has to go, they'll run over and be like
"Argh! Superman is blocking my way!"...and that'll just be really funny.

I think maybe I'm one of those people who's meant to live alone XD
