I’m really into Lady Gaga recently. I guess it is because her songs and music videos are so 80s. Man, I love all things retro.

I’ve grown to really like Amuro Namie (安室奈美恵) during the past 4-5 years or so. When she was at the peak of her career a little over a decade ago, I didn’t think much of her. Maybe it was because of her style and looks back then. Now-a-days, I find her more mature and much more attractive. But anyway, I won’t go on about her or her music. Instead, I’ll rave a bit about Vidal Sassoon’s recent FASHION, MUSIC, VS collaboration campaign featuring Amuro Namie.

Wow, melody. will release a new Maxi single called Finding My Road on Valentines Day, February 14, 2007 (actually, it was originally scheduled for end-Jan). That’s just 4 months since she released her previous single, not the usual 6 months gap. I guess she must be doing well right now. Again, I’m gonna have to get it on day one! The CD contains 4 songs:

1. Finding My Road
2. fragile
3. My Dear
4. Finding My Road 〜SiZK “Water Drop” MiX – Remixed by SiZK

Two versions of the new single will be available: the standard music CD version (¥1,100) or the music CD + music video DVD combo (music video for Finding My Road. ¥1,500). No need to guess which one I’m gonna go for…

Just as I said before, I bought both melody.‘s “Lovin’ U CD single” and “Be as one TOUR 2006 Live DVD” on release day, today! I’ll repeat: damn, she’s so my type…

A new Maxi single coming on November 8 from melody. (damn, she is so my type)! The CD is called Lovin’ U, retails for ¥1,260 and contains the following 4 songs:

2. Our Journey - a theme song for a Taiwanese movie
3. FEEL THE RUSH - theme song for J sports ESPN ‘X-MUSIC SB FREAK’
4. FEEL THE RUSH – Junkie XL remix for “Need for Speed Carbon”

And, yes, I’m buying this CD on day one! Same goes for her Be as one TOUR 2006 Live DVD which debuts on the same day!

Panasonic updates their D-snap MP3 players today introducing the high-end SD800N and the lower-end SD400V.

I’ve always respected Panasonic’s industrial designs for their previous D-snap models because they always had unique and attractive designs instead of just copying the ever-so-popular iPod. But with this new model, it basically has “iPod nano” etched across it with a touch of Sony. Shape, size and controller wise, it’s borrowed from the iPod while the finish and LCD treatment is from the Sony MP3 Walkman.
