Big News for a Happy
Holiday Season
(posted on
December 26, 2011)
First of all, Happy Holidays! Have a great New Year, Christmas, Hannakuh, or whatever you celebrate. :D
In honor of the holidays, moumoon and I have a lot of presents for you!
• New UStream concerts
A concert was held in October (and supposedly in November, but that footage hasn't been released yet). You can visit this website to see the previous UStream concerts.
Turns out they also did another concert in September...which I NEVER knew about. It was done in front of a large audience, and was AWESOME. This time, we get to see YUKA play the violin...AND they did a FULL VERSION of "We Go" (skip to 104:35)! That's the intro track from the "15 Doors" album. The full version of "We Go" will also be released on their upcoming album. More info on the album will be mentioned later in this update.Also, on December 24, they're going to have another live performance. See below for more info. Hope to see you there!!:
Air Date: Dec-24-2011
Start Time: 18:00 (Doors open at 17:30)

• More info about their newest single
The song "Macaron" is on the CD single, but that's NOT the name of the single. Instead, the new single is called "uta o utaou"...which, of course, is the name of yet another new song. (^^) The CD single came out on December 14...and yes, a special website has been created for the new single.
The music video for "utau o utaou" was released a few weeks earlier (in November), and it's pretty cute. And, the full version of "Macaron" (with awful audio quality; probably ripped from moumoon's radio show) was leaked in November, too. >.>
• Another new song was revealed
Also in November, they revealed another new song. It's called "Yes / No Continue?", and will be used as a "special promo" (i.e., a "commercial + music video") for the Japanese version of "The Amazing World of Gumball", which is a cartoon that airs on Cartoon Network. Some of you might remember that Cartoon Network was famous for doing a LOT of these "commercial/music videos", like this old one for the U.S. version of Dexter's Laboratory.
"Yes / No Continue?" was also used (and first debuted, in November) on this commercial for the Jill Stuart clothing store. A month later, the special promo video for "Gumball" was finally released...and it had a longer version of the song. :D
EDIT: In the beginning of December, the full version of the song was apparently "leaked" on moumoon's radio show.
(Special thanks to this website for mentioning the Jill Stuart commercial!)
