I've been sick (again! AGAIN!) again, so I've been logging out early every night. Oy with the not feeling well! I think I'm finally human again, so here I am. :-D Yes, I know you're all thrilled.
In gossip seen around the schoolyard, it seems that MTV-US has said they'll play ADIDAS if it's a hit in Europe. Weh? Yeah, way to be on the cutting edge, MTV! They've become more corporate than the New York Stock Exchange. Jeebus. To that end I'm going to snag this next bit from
stamplet and hope she doesn't hurt me:
TRL UK - we have to scroll to the bottom and type in the artist name and video title. I'm sure we can vote more than once, but I don't know what the vote limit is, if any.
Video-C - it's already #5 on the Video-C Weekly Top Ten (chart is on the right of the main page). You can click on the ADIDAS graphic to go to the ADIDAS page, then click on the "vote now" button. You do have to register before you can vote.
In even more interesting news, it also seems as though we might expect a second album. This fills me with squeeful joy that you can't even imagine. WAIT! You're all mostly JC fans too, so you probably *can* imagine. You're probably all filled with squeeful joy too! So yay! And I have four JC Month days to catch up on. I clearly suck.
In not-JC news, HEY, PRINCE OF TENNIS FANS!!! Can one of you tell me who Ryoma's friend is? Thanks!

edited to add cd drive is making a weird noise. dammit.

Date: 2004-06-05 06:06 am (UTC)Locked post about conversations overheard at various concerts. This person is trustworthy, and was posting from the road. I'm putting out feelers myself, 'cause I've seen nothing on my friends list. I checked out the JJB, but didn't see anything there either.
Until we see it from official sources it's not official, of course, still. There are JIVE reps running around and radio people and yes, things can be overheard. I'm taking it with TON of salt - as we've all learned to do in the last few months when it comes to JC! - still, like I said, reputable person posted the info. It's a wait and see at this point, I guess!

Date: 2004-06-05 06:40 am (UTC)Exactly. Which is why though I'm cautious (read = fan following the rollercoaster ride of JC's career), I'm still excited. How many times have we heard the most unlikely stuff that turned out to be true? JC touring with Brit comes to mind.
Of course, I hope the second album thing is true!
I'm doing catch up on the JC Month things, and the one I'm posting for Day Two is the day I got the album. I just reread the post before answering this and...god, I just started smiling remembering what a heady experience it was.
The album's been well-received by critics - surprisingly so in some circles - if not popularly, so I can't see why they wouldn't want to build on that. If it were anyone other than JC I'd say a second album was a given. See? There's that twice-burned cautiously limited optimism again. ;-)
As for the MTV one...the video is getting play over in Europe so if that is true, we probably will be seeing it here later.
Well, MTV's a big ol' eight-pack of wienies complete with buns and relish, so who knows what the hell they'll do. It'd be nice to see it on bigger screen - god, that crotch bump would probably knock me off the couch.

OK. I feel better now.
