Yamapi performs "Ai, Texas" on Music Japan (2012.02.26)




I realize this is almost a week old, but I just noticed that no one has posted it here yet. The flowers, body glitter, and glitter eyeshadow need to go.. I'm starting to like the song though. Keep lip-syncing, Pi

To many thoughts, can't decide on one comment.

Something between crying and laughing lol.

This is my first time hearing this song. Those "moves" look like something AKB48 would do and Im not really fond of the song either. Maybe I'll like this after I watch the pv for this, that's what I did with hadakanbo

I don't know why they still let him do hand-movements (near the mic) during performances

I feel like ever since Yamapi left NewS he's been pretty ... L A M E

and this is coming from a Yamapi fan who only listened/paid attention to NewS because of Ryo and Yamapi ...

this solo thing is questionable =(

....what? I can't take him seriously.

He should perform this on top of the Brokeback Mountain.

LOL!

Lame song is lame. That stupid narration/monologue in the middle doesn't make things any better.

Pi, just when I thought you were doing good with Loveless and One in a Million...........ugh.
taciturndream 3rd-Mar-2012 10:24 pm (UTC)
I kinda like the song, thought it was gonna be awful. Yet the costume, wth! What was he thinking? Those roses..?? And he is really lip syncing eh, looks pretty lame.

Yet I do dig the song haha.
kame_94 3rd-Mar-2012 10:30 pm (UTC)
Yeah, the perf of him not lip-syncing (on Coming Soon!) was really bad imo. There was such a difference, and he was flat in a lot of places.
Oh and the outfit was worse (hard to imagine) than this one

I like the song

And the performance is.. Well nothing special.
Except he looked good in red.

It's stressing the eyes in terms of "acceptable", but even so...
Winning back my heart, Pi! <3

I don't think I can love the song, but somehow this made me feel a bit nostalgic. Love you, Pi!!! :D
artcika 3rd-Mar-2012 11:11 pm (UTC)
it's borring as fuck... at least bring a couple of backup dancers to fill the space, he looks stupid "performing" by himself, especially when he can't really sing...lol i still don't get why they thor out poorly vocal-ized guys into the music world....i really don't get how someone can get turned on by this dead voice with no emotion or expression, it sounds like a robot...
Don't get me wrong, i have nothing against Yamapi, i think he's an alright for acting..sometimes...but i could never take someone like him seriously for singing....
gingerrangerftw 3rd-Mar-2012 11:59 pm (UTC)
Not sure why, but this makes me cringe.
littleraindrops 4th-Mar-2012 12:08 am (UTC)
the "dance" is a bit odd, but I love the rest ♥
pistachu 4th-Mar-2012 12:55 am (UTC)
I like this more then I should but he's looking so gay and his costume so ridic I can't XD
I like that even after going solo he still has some 'johnny esprit' *side-eyeing jin* <_<
nuhas 4th-Mar-2012 01:22 am (UTC)
Even though he's lip-sync, it still like a crap compare to Tegomass's live performance in Music Fair yesterday
shikobe 4th-Mar-2012 01:45 am (UTC)
theme song-wise, nothing beats daite senorita
radiosity_blaze 4th-Mar-2012 11:40 am (UTC)
I LOVE DS, why can't he make another song like that? :/
sashwizzled 4th-Mar-2012 01:54 am (UTC)
He came up on TV yesterday advertising this single and looking at him, I finally understood the dead fish eyes thing REALLY WELL. Like. He is completely dead behind the eyes. It's scary.
go_chan2011 4th-Mar-2012 01:54 am (UTC)
Gochan: "Pi I totally love you but what´s with the flowers?"

Pi: "Johnny make me use them~""I drown my pains in acohol now"

just curious, did he use the same jacket before? *recycle?*
cheekmunk0409 4th-Mar-2012 02:32 am (UTC)
The performance on Our Music is a lot better. He's still wearing that horrible outfit and doing that awkward dance, but at least he doesn't look so lonely w/ the live band behind him.

Video has been private'd :[[

It's horrible even for a Johnny's song which makes it even worse. At least with other JE songs, there is usually some kind of catchy hook or gimmick to make up for the subpar quality (let's be real, you guys), but this is just a trainwreck.

not for kinki kids~~

Pi seems to be just going through the motions. :( Also, the choreo comprises halfhearted hand movements/swaying - which don't help at all.
ceathair 4th-Mar-2012 03:48 am (UTC)
Yamapi has tattoos?! (yes, I haven't been in NEWS fandom for ages)
This performance was kinda bad, I hope he has a better song next time.
kame_94 4th-Mar-2012 03:57 am (UTC)
They're fake. Johnny's aren't allowed to have real tattoos in visible areas. That's why many get them on their feet, lower hip (past pants line), butt, inner lip, etc.
xingjing 4th-Mar-2012 03:56 am (UTC)
oh my, his career is just soaring. i can't even about what he is wearing.
tha_x 4th-Mar-2012 03:58 am (UTC)
I find the song likeable but the performance itself is a joke, he looks dead, bored or like he's not realling into it
