FFFF, I actually saw it before you posted the video, DA! Therefore you didn't do it just for me.. ;__; .. but anyway, I was actually going to post the video as well. You beat me to it, though, but at least it's here now. Onto the song! I really love it, and I think it's some great work. I love the opening to the PV and the song, and it really does feel like some major debut with how young they look. The song is just great, though, and I wish they would do a whole, brand new album full of new songs. They really remind me of Takanori Nishikawa [T.M. Revolution / Lead Vocals for Abingdon Boys School] just because Taka is 40 as well, but looks as young as he ever did and still does amazing work in both his music and performances. (I should add Taka is one my all-time favorite artists, and as T.M. Rev for his solo work and Abingdon Boys School for his group stuff, he leads two of my all-time favorite musical groups] A fountain of youth certainly does appear to be somewhere in Japan. O-O; |

Haha, think I meant that first comment for Shuy. But yeah, I liked his blond hair, but maybe a bit darker would be better. And yeah, they look like they're just debuting or something. Their average age is 40+!!! Amazing!!

I have to do everything for you: There's no official video of it yet, so there's no HD versions yet but this will have to do. Yat said the intro reminds him of BLESS, but only in this PV it does, then after Ken's melody in the beginning, it sounds totally different. The actual PV looks a bit like the READY, STEADY GO!! PV.

Oh wow, I did not realize that's what it was! I need to find a video of it on Youtube asap. Or find it somewhere in the vast world of Google. New L'Arc is enough to get my energy level soaring to new heights! Sounds like it's a great song I need to get ASAP. O_O; |

Dude I heard it last night and saw the PV (which is cool)!!!! I tweeted it!! An of course no rust from these guys musically, the song is great! Can't wait for the single!! It was said that they wouldn't release any new music, I hope this leads to more music and a new album!! Can you believe these guys look even younger now from that PV? Hyde went back to black hair but these guys look like they were promoting Awake or Smile. XD As for the song itself, it's nice had to re-listen to it cause some parts were a bit different to their usual style of music. Such as those double guitar riffs which are heard often in the song. Although I can sort of tell this song might be a bit different when performed live. The guitar solo from ken starts off a bit shaky, then picks up nicely. Hyde's vocals are on point, tetsu's haircut makes him look half his age (which would be closer to his lovely fiance!), and yukihiro not wearing dark colors makes him stand out now (and he's wearing sneakers). Hehehe~~ Oh, I also love the chorus it's pretty addicting. Honestly if you just hopped into Laruku recently, you think they were about to release Awake or Smile. I love it. The PV had bad quality so I'll wait for the single. Anyone know release date? [@Shuy] Shame on you for sure man. I've been waiting for their comeback as a group for like three years! And no this is going to be a new single, so far as I know, but I heard it from watching the PV first. But yeah I hope they release an album since they never ever age. I was honestly starting to worry if their songs would be slower since SHINE, than BLESS, but this song is really their style and I can see them jumping around during it live. They still have that Laruku spark! As for concerts, they did apparently have one on new year, although I only saw like one clip from it, but they're having an official "I think" 2 day concert for their 20th L'Anniversary! Even after all these years I'm still their biggest fan. ^_^

I haven't! Is that a whole new song they put out in a single/album, or something they performed at a concert? I haven't kept up with L'Arc news since around the time I was last here and you were discussing their plans for the year. Shame on me. e.e; |

Yeah I read this, they already had their concert on New Years, but wtf, if I knew that it was streamed live on ustream I would've tuned in. I think my internet was acting up that time anyways, so fail regardless. I'm glad they're having a TWO DAY L'Anniversary concert!! DAY 1 AND 2!! CAN'IT WAIT! Their 15th L'Anniversary was amazing, and that's saying without their later single MY HEART DRAWS A DREAM. They're definitely going to perform a crazy amount of songs, I hope they do more of their older songs from their visual days. I miss Flower and Lies and Truth and such, such amazing songs back in the day that they don't perform anymore. I wish they also do more stuff from their Smile and Awake albums, too, rooting for "Time goes on". They only did that once on DVD concert. For sure they're doing MY HEART DRAWS A DREAM, and I can't wait to hear how it sounds now. 20 years is a huge milestone for a band, but it sucks they're not releasing NEW material. I was tricked when they re-released their Hurry Xmas single. It's good for fans who like treats, but the song's the exact same regardless. They've had a ton of best albums already, guess I'll wait for the last one which'll just contain all of them together. Still it's a while until their L'Anniversary concert. I wonder if their New years concert will be on DVD? And yeah, it's their first time performing in Tokyo Stadium. Is it bigger than the Tokyo Dome? If you ever saw their Grand Cross tour, that was a HUGE venue. And it was outdoors, too. Their reincarnation concert was also enormous!

Fans who wish to buy all three albums can wait for a special “TWENITY BOX†that will be available on March 9th. The box will also contain a special DVD.

Anyone hear them at JACK IN THE BOX this year? I can barely find stuff on them, but Ken's solo set was pretty awesome! Laruku apparently sang Ready, Steady Go!! live but haven't seen it yet.

Yeah I can't wait, it's actually earlier than I predicted. I thought they'd reunite later in the year of 2011, but who knew they'd start by the end of the year. You know they're going to do some Christmas/New Year thing, and I can't wait for that. I can't wait for this, I've waited for a long time, obviously since they announced their hiatus, lol. But hyde I think is doing one final tour with VAMPS this year. I'm not sure what everyone else will be doing, but it'll be the first L'Arc~en~Ciel appearance with tetsuya as his stage name. I can't wait, I hope they release a new single before than.
