You're all aware by now (please read the site if you aren't) that Ms. Kayo Aiko is my first and only true love when it comes to Japanese pop music. I could give my reasons here, but again, read my old posts, that'll learn ya. Aiko really seemed to be mad at me when I ventured into Kpop and Cpop (gee thanks, Tom) but I wonder how she'd feel if she knew I had the hots for one of her friends?
Well, I'm sure Aiko will be devastated to find out that I've formed a bit of a bond with her good friend Saito Michi, a.k.a., Mi-chan, whom I've mentioned in a few previous posts. Similar to Aiko, what was at first merely an infatuation with her good looks became a full-blown obsession (and I totally called *that* one) once I discovered her music, and her photobooks.
So, what the hell; eye candy, please:
(Beavis voice): "Hey, how's it goin'?" Let's get a little more risqué...
She's beeeautiful... one more, and:
Mi-chan, let's run away together, you and me.
All of this attractiveness gets more solidified after you've heard her music. You wouldn't think that a girl who gets *this* in-your-face -- here, try *this* one instead...
So, you wouldn't think that a girl who gets *this* in-your-face could sing these really wistful, sweet songs about finding dreams and true love, with a *little tiny* voice that's just addictive (although her speaking voice is rather full and husky, but I could again be confusing Koha with someone else).
So what, Aiko? I've a right to play the field on this one.
It's interesting, because Aiko and Michi are so similar; yet become polar opposites upon further examination. Aiko's a sweet, bubbly girl who goes for all-out cuteness, sings epic songs full of twists and turns, and seems to be very outgoing without a lot of self-confidence issues. And I rather like *that*, but...
On the other hand, Michi is a reserved and calm girl who goes for a quiet sort of beauty, sings simple and soft (but man, if they ain't awesome) songs, and seems almost shy to a fault. But, who's the one going 'round dressed in skimpy swimsuits, after all? Somehow, it's as if these two were twins of the opposite-sort, but which one is the evil twin?
So, if I may venture out slightly on a limb, here, it goes like this: Aiko is a sex kitten wrapped in a disguise of cuteness, while Mi-chan is cuteness-itself disguised as a total sex kitten. It's that simple. About them both, what's not to love?
So there you have it, and if anyone thinks I should go back to posting about AX, Ms. Kayo would like to point something out:
See? It says right there in "the rules" that I can write about whatever I want to on this site. Thanks, Ms. Kayo.
Lasto, let's see a bit more of Ms. Saito, shall we? After all my going on, it's nice to have a video to illustrate my point. By the way, two words: "bathtub sequence". Oh, and all the phrases that appear on the screen describe how I feel about Mi-chan at this point...
From here on.
