I Suddenly Miss 6-nin NEWS... T_T

in Rant, Complain, Talk3 years ago



I was watching some anime with my mama a a couple nights ago and when we were listening to the opening song, she commented that the song was quite similar to a song sang by my favorite idol group. I was curious as to which song she was referring to, so I tried listening to the opening song intently to figure out what it was. And then I realized it was similar to KoyaShige's "Iitai Dake" -- a song they performed in NEWS' LIVE! LIVE! LIVE! Concert.

My mama was quite familiar with the song since I used to imitate the dance they created for that song... also, I re-watched the concert multiple times. I have the concert DVD, so I could watch it again and again.

Since it brought back some memories, I watched some parts of the DVD today. Well, only some parts because the concert was quite long and I had other stuff to do. Also, it's kind of nostalgic and somehow sad to watch it.


LIVE! LIVE! LIVE! Concert was done by 6-nin NEWS or 6-member NEWS. Originally, they have 9 members, however, when I became a fan more than 10 years ago, they had 6 members left. I love this version of NEWS so much that when I watched some parts of the concert earlier, I felt like crying.

I love their all-out performances during their concerts. I also love their goofiness backstage. I really enjoy watching the documentary part of their DVDs. Ahh~ they're still so young in this picture. I really miss 6-nin NEWS.

Of course, I also learned to love 4-nin NEWS. They also did their best for the fans and I'm always very touched by them. When I watched the DVD of their Utsukushii Koi ni Suru yo~ Concert, I couldn't help but cry buckets... I love listening to their performance of FULL SWING in that concert because it was like being born again for them. T_T Ahhhhh~~~

Well, I can't find the concert clip online, but this is the song I'm talking about. While they were singing this in their concert, they were crying buckets... and their was a part in the documentary when the fans suddenly started singing this song while waiting for them which was actually a surprise for 4-nin NEWS.

This song is really meaningful since it reflects their situation. There was a part which says, "This is not the end!" and that they are ready to face everything in "full swing". Their songs are always so encouraging.


Now, there are only 3 members left in NEWS, but they still don't see the phrase "give up" in their dictionary. Of course, I still support the 3 members of 6-nin who left the group especially Tegoshi since he's my favorite... but I can't help but feel proud for the remaining 3 members. I may not be an active fan as I used to during my university days, but deep within me, NEWS and their songs remain in my heart and in my life forever.

I miss NEWS... I especially miss the 6-member NEWS who once saved me from depression and gave color to my life. <3

Sort:  

Sounds like a great trip down memory lane for you! Glad you got to relive that nostalgia. The band will live on it seems!

It is! Thanks a lot... :) And yes, that's for sure. Even though there are only 3 active members left, I still try and support the others who left. <3 Have a great one! ^^

The pictures and videos is so nostalgic. I also listened NEWS's songs back when I'm in highschool (I stan KAT-TUN btw). My friend @kingnamazu09 also a fan of NEWS. He loves Nishikido Ryo so much.

To know that NEWS once saved you from depression, they must be have special place in your heart 😭

haha... going down memory lane... lol
I like KATTUN, too! :) For real? I'm happy to know that! Hello #kingnamazu09! Fellow NEWS fan. ^^

They did, so 6-nin NEWS will always have a place in my heart. <3

Wait, I just realized that you guys @hirokeeh @tegoshei mentioned me.

I know them since I was a kiddo because my older sister is a big fan of Jhonny's Ent. I stan for Kanjani8.

Haha... Kanjani8 are a bunch of funny and interesting talents... One of ny friends was so into them as well. 😊😎
