post from yesterday = this one

yeah so i posted REALLY late last night so i figured i might as wel just erase that and put it up today e_e *its below* :) I got my Duel Jewel CDs yesterday. Both versions of the new releases, each CD has a different cover and a different DVD inside. The same two songs are on the CDs but in different order on either one. I have to admit this -- I started crying when I watched the [Life On...] PV. I felt like an idiot because I mean what the fuck was there to cry about, you know? But damn...I don't know it was just the energy in the live (they filmed a bunch of live clips and then each member in front of a big white wall being...well...in lack of a better term -- DAMN SEXY). And there is one part in the song where the background vocals are so cute and go "woo oo ooh" *insert pop-ish tune* And even if these two releases aren't really Duel Jewel's normal kind of music, I think they are just trying out new things because they are a fairly new band (well kind of...they're just beginning to get popular I mean. When I first fell in love with them it was only a short while after their american debut at Akon13 in 2002). But it was when I saw Shun singing the background vocals like that, and I saw the smiles and his especially... It took me back to a huge report Sophie (she's the amazing woman who brought duel Jewel to America for the first time :D) from Akon13. Back then they were SO young and SO new to all of this, and after their first live performance -- they actually broke down and cried. They were so excited and overwhelmed by the love and support in that crowd, to see all those faces screaming for THEM, that they actually cried. They've come so far. It was just a beautiful thing to see, them so full of energy and joy, bouncing around stage and laughing. I didn't know what else to do, how to react, so I cried. Gah...if I could never get anything I want in life again, the only thing I would ever want to do would be to see them. To meet THEM. To try my best to let them know in some way that they changed my life. I want them to feel that, to feel important, to know how amazing they all really are. I can't help but think of them as just 5 guys, not a "band". When I see them I think of each one as a totally normal (yet freakishly talented and BEAUTIFUL) man. I feel like I know them though I am aware that I don't. They've held me together when I started to crack, and I have so much I wish I could do to thank them for it. I just want them to know that they did what they intended to do, they moved someone's heart and they made a difference for them. I want them to smile and know that. I just want to see them smile.
