Various SMAP ending songs

[scottishlass]

Last week's ending songs on SmaSma with Kobukuro duet were exceptionally good and I ripped them from my episode:
Sakura (Cherry Tree)
Tokyo Tower (theme)
Additionally, here are two more which I really liked:
Time After Time (ending song 9th Dec 1996)
LaLaLaLa Lovesong
LaLaLaLa Lovesong (Kimura duet with Kobuta Toshinobu)

I just love Sakura and Time After Time - I could listen to them continuously :)

Ack, LJ just ate my long post :(

Okay, I recapitulate what I wrote initially :)

Nakai really does seem to do well when he is in a duet, whether it is a male or female voice. Shingo too, but then he has such a wonderful voice solo or in a duet, it is always lovely.

Kimura seems to be teamed almost always with female singers who have these thin waif-like voices whihc doesn't do anything to his own voice and he tries to pitch higher :( I wish they would team him up with a woman with a slightly deeper timbre.

is it wrong that my inner 14 year old is a bit happy about that ;)
No way :) Even thogh I don't hate his wife like some other Kimura fans do (I always think if she makes him happy I am happy) one of my secret pet peeve is the theory that she actually got pregnant deliberately and lured him into marriage. She had not released a CD since 1997 and her concerts weren't doing so well, so I think she thought to marry - and in 2000 who was the hottest celeb in Japan? Kimura-kun. But as I said that is only my own personal secret pet peeve :)

bad LJ *shakes fist*

*nods* I was very impressed with him in the last concert :) although I have a thing for his voice as well, even thou he hardly ever sings in key/tune/whatever :D but I still really like his voice and he tries so hard *pets him*

*nods* I really adore Shingos voice, probably more then is normal *laughs*

whihc doesn't do anything to his own voice and he tries to pitch higher
*nods* it just turns out so wrong ^^; yeah, a female singer with a deeper voice would probably be better :)

good :D *nods* I don't hate her either, I mean I don't even know her and I assume she makes him happy ^^ sometimes my inner 14 year old just like to stick it to her for being so darn lucky to be married to Kimura *laughs* yeah, there are lots of weird theories out there for sure...

But as I said that is only my own personal secret pet peeve :)
I wont tell anyone *crosses heart* :D

Yeah, he always tries so hard and it is a very lovable trait. Any other Western band would have tried to get rid of him or not giving him any solo parts in songs, but these guys *hugs her squishy feelings*

Yep, my sentiments exactly. And I have to admit, when I saw the clip of them doing the duet together, there was chemistry, esp. from Kimura's side. He was jumping around her like a young puppy eager to get a hug.

*nods* it really is :) uhuh, he wouldn't even be in the band to begin with if it was a Western band...
