Happy New Year-2009

Merry Christmas!

Hello everyone! Merry Christmas to you, you, you, and you. I hope you all were able to get everything you wanted for Christmas. Just remember that Christmas is more about family than it is about gifts. While good things come and go, family will always be there in your heart forever.

I know it's been awhile since I've posted. I missed a couple of Sunday Hot picks for the music. To be honest. No time. My work has me busy Mon-Fri. On the weekend, I just want to go out. I don't want to be near a computer on the weekend because I'm on one for 60-80hours a week. It's all good though, I'll try my best to keep up with this blog.

Well, it's Christmas so we need some Christmas jingles. We are going to Japan for this one. Here's a couple of tracks that will get you in the holiday spirit.

Crystal Kay-Shining


Mika Nakashima-Yuki no Hana


Foxxi Misq-Last Christmas


Perfume-Twinkle Snow Powdery Snow


Lastly we have a non-Christmas track. Introducing the somewhat new vid from Tenjo Chiki.

Tenjo Chiki-Sukoshi de ii kara


I hope you enjoyed these video's check back every now and then for updates on what's good and what's hot. Have a very wonderful Christmas everybody. Peace.

What's Hot and What's good-French Edition

Happy Sunday everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful thanksgiving. Even if you don't celebrate this holiday,  I hope you at least spent time with friends and family. Thanksgiving is really the time to sit back and relax and thank those for such a fortunate life. My mom has a plate that is older than me, but it carries a special message-"Thank god for dirty dishes. While others may go hungry, we are eating well." Sounds good right. Coolness.

Well, it's that time again. It's the Sunday's what's hot and what's good segment. This time we are going to viva la France! I have been out of touch with the French side of this blog so let's catch up on what's hot in French Music. Today we have a female triple threat. 

First off, we have the very beautiful Lea Castel in her video "Presse de Vivre." This girl has mad talent. Lea can bless the ivory keys and she can hit those high notes like Mariah Carey. Check it!

Lea Castel-Presse de vivre

Love it! She kinda reminds me of Alicia Keys. Lea Castel can rock a mean a cappella too.

Next up we have Sheryfa Luna with her new track "Si tu n'etais plus la."

Sheryfa Luna-Si tu n'etais plus la.

At first, this girl look like Winona Rider. I think it's because of her hair. Yeh, it kinda tripped me out. Even so, this is a great song. 

Lastly, we have the very soulful Mayrina Chebel with her awesome track "Tant d'amour a donner." There is something about this song that is beautiful. When I find that out I'll let you know. In the mean time please enjoy her video.

Mayrina Chebel-Tat d'amour a donner

If you like these artists please pick up their albums via online, your friends, or your local international music provider. Share what's hot and what's good in French music with your friends. They will think you're cool...or a fool. No matter, it's all good music. Have a wonderful weekend everyone.

What a morning...

I checked my email this morning and Bank of America sent me a notification of some fraudulent charges/irregular activity shit going on my credit card. I called about the issue and some bastard tried using my card to open up an account with Match.com. WTF!!! Talk about desperate. Now, if the criminal used the card for food, gas, or a high purchase I would be like ok that's normal. But Match.com? Come on man. What a loser. Anyways, I got the whole situation under control. Thank you for BofA for their fast and immediate response. Your customer greatly appreciates your business.

Moving on...

It's sunday. You know what that means? WRONG!!! It's the Sunday-What's hot and what's good segment. Today, we have some killer tracks I'm sure you will love.

First off we have an awesome punk girl group named "Hangry and Angry." These girls have style. I didn't notice it at first, but the girls are from Morning Musume!!! Yoshizawa Hitomi and Rika Ishikawa is rocking the mic y'all! Their song Kill Me Kiss Me is nothing like their personalities from Morning Musume. They are more aggressive in this track. I have to be honest, I like it! If you haven't copped it, watch it!

Hangry and Angry-Kill Me Kiss Mee

Next up we have "The Girl Next Door" with her song "Jyounetsu no Daishou." It's a nice dance track. It makes me want to break out some glow sticks...

The Girl Next Door-Jyounetsu no Daishou

btw, what's up with Japanese and their attraction to England/Britain? I mean there's nothing wrong it. I'm just curious on why Japanese love England/Britain so much. If y'all know, holler at your boy. Break down the knowledge for me.

Alright its time to go. It's breakfast time so I have to get my eat on. Everyone have a wonderful weekend. Peace.

Sunday-What's hot and what's good Edition

Ohayou Gozaimasu! Good morning everyone. It's that time again to bring you what's hot and what's good in Japanese music. Lately, there's been a lot of good music coming out in Japan. You're going to need a filter to bring you what's hot and what's good. So let's get this thang rollin'!

First off, we have the beautiful half Japanese/Trinidadian chick, Aoyama Thelma with her new track "Mamoritai."

Aoyama Thelma-Mamoritai

Next up we have Yuki Koyanagi with her new single "We can go anywhere."

Yuki Koyanagi-We can go anywhere

I'm a new to this girl. Looks like she's been around for a bit. I have to do some research on her. Ya know, see what she's all about. 

Lastly, we have the very lovely, very busty DJ Kaori featuring Jay'ed with "You're the only one."

Man, DJ Kaori is cute. She dj's, sings, and she got a big rack. Man what more can you ask for!?Don't think she gotta a big rack? Check this:

Jay'ed is an interesting figure. He's half New Zealand/Japanese. This boy got mad skills on the mic. I know he has an album out, but I can't find it anywhere. If y'all know where to get it, holla at yo boy. 

I hope you enjoyed these tunes. Do me a favor and treat yourself to something good this Sunday. You deserve it! Take care everyone.

Peace!

HAPPY POCKY DAY!!!

According to my fiance, November 11th is Pocky day! Why? 11-11 looks like Pocky sticks? Maybe. Nevertheless, it's a great day to buy some Pocky and celebrate the joys of this delicious treat.

Never heard of Pocky? No problem. Get familiar with them on their website:

www.pocky.jp

Not much to say today so I leave you with the newest of Pocky commercials. This one is featuring the pretty Shiori Kutsuna. 

Sunday-What's hot and what's good Edition

G'morning everyone. It's Sunday here in gloomy weather California. It's been a crazy week so let's relax with some good music. This is what's hot and what's good.

Perfume-Dream Fighter

I love these girls! They are so cute. Their is something about their music and style that keeps pulling me in. Props out to 1337Rice for hooking this up. BTW, my fiance bought me Perfume's Game Tour DVD. That DVD is so awesome! I'll post pics of the dvd as soon as I get a chance. 

On the korean side we got the lovely ladies of "Wonder Girls" with their highly infections hook "I want nobody but you." Enjoy!

Wonder Girls-Nobody but you

I can relate to the guy taking a shit. My brother and I call it the "Shitanics." Shit so bad that it makes you late for any occasion. 

I hope you all enjoyed these new tracks. This is what's hot and what's good. Keep checking back in for more good music here at BentoBeatBoxing.
