Glay is ..

How I came to know Glay

Shopping at HMV one day, Glay's piano book was put on the testing rack. Curious, I went to hear it and was attracted to the piece, Kanojo no modern. (Here is a sample if you wanna hear it ^^)
 

After getting the cd and listening to it a few times, I think I must get their cds with the songs themselves. So the next cd I got was Review and needless to say, it was a very good album and I listened to it many times… my favourites are Kanojo no modern, However, Kiseki no hate, Yes, Summerdays, actually almost all =p
At that time I didn't know they were so popular! So I was shocked and happy when I hear that they are actually the most popular band in Japan… (Wow ^o^ )
Back to topic.. so I started stocking up my Glay cds, from the first indies album, Hai to Daiyamondo right up to the latest album and single.. and I like most of them ^^

Glay never stay in the same style all the time and is always experimenting with the different types of music, I think this makes them an all-rounded band and being someone who listens to all (well almost all) sorts of music, I kinda like their songs ^^

On Teru

Teru was a drummer for Glay in the beginning and later he turned into vocalist by an accidental demo tape. Teru has a singing style that shouts till his voice turns hoarse.. so sometimes it's better not to hear him live =p but Glay's live is interesting. At first I dun really like Teru, till on one of their live shows, he wore a black t-shirt and was looking very cool 'oohh I thought' he has the figure for t-shirts =p
Actually looking back on their indies day when they had long hair, I think Teru is undeniably the prettiest ^^

On Jiro * Fav member

Ahh the fellow which made me interested in the members of Glay =p Remember that 'dragonball hair' you always caught Jiro in.. well that's what I call that hair style coz it reminds me of Wokong's hair =p He caught my attention with that hair and it looks kinda different but it seems to suit him well =p Some said he won over more fans becoz of that hair style =p haha.. He always did silly things on stage which made people laugh. Off stage he always dress like a nerd and he doesn't have good temper ^^" so careful with that dragonball who pouts fire!!

On Hisashi * Fav member

Oh.. the member with the finest taste ^^ .. I always like to look at Hisashi's guitars esp that blue transparent one… it got me interested in electric guitars… At first I didn't notice much on Hisashi till I saw one of his indies photo and that tour poster for Heavy gauge album looks downright cool!
Together with Jiro, they can vie for the most coolest member in Glay =p
Hisashi likes technological stuffs a lot and has a taste for things aesthetics. He is a shy person but that didn't reduce his charms =p I think he is a classy person and he uses a lot of lingos in his daily language.

On Takuro

Glay's mastermind! He wrote most of the songs for Glay, at least 95%! So you don't have to guess who makes the most money in Glay =p This also brings to the fact that Teru is the poorest in Glay ^^" Takuro isn't the center of attraction in Glay but who cares coz he wrote the Glay's melodies which are all well-known and recognized. Takuro is not my favourite Glay member but I do admire his skills for music composing ^^

My Favourite Glay songs

Winter Again, However, Kanojo no modern, Happiness(sounds like Beatles Let it be), Soul Love, Haru wo Aisuru Hito, More than Love, Freeze My Love, Mayfair, Beloved, Summer FM, Todomai, ahh just many of their songs ^^
