I've also read that Nakai and KimuTaku had been involved in teenage gang activity and that the two had even traded a few punches although I'm not sure how accurate that rumour is.<br /><br />From what I've seen of KimuTaku when SMAP was still in business during practices performed by the junior groups, he had a ferocious drill instructor type of personality. He despised any lack of effort from the kids and made it very clear to them. Katori was the good cop to Kimura's bad cop in that situation.J-Canuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09551828383307840403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2501670448657416824.post-2411198400241707842021-04-20T10:03:20.420-04:002021-04-20T10:03:20.420-04:00I am a recent SMAP fan (yeah, unbelievable that I ...I am a recent SMAP fan (yeah, unbelievable that I discovered them only after they have disbanded) and I absolutely love this song! I even managed to watch all their concert dvds, hahaha! Yes I love KimuTaku and apparently he was a gangster during his schooldays together with Nakai. They were schoolmates but in different gangs, hahaha!lml55https://www.blogger.com/profile/15873689360125335282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2501670448657416824.post-54586886537128826552014-03-01T20:03:28.784-05:002014-03-01T20:03:28.784-05:00Hi, Marcos.
Yeah, I think having the right songwr...Hi, Marcos.<br /><br />Yeah, I think having the right songwriter behind the guys can make all the difference....even with Nakai-kun's voice.<br /><br />As for angry KimuTaku, I once watched a variety show in which one comedian and a film crew spent a day at Johnny's Entertainment while the new crop of young boys were doing their dance practices. Of course, with SMAP being at the top of the heap, Takuya and Shingo Katori were looking at the kids as the instructor was putting them through their paces. When it looked like they were starting to goof around, the two SMAPpers did Good Cop and Bad Cop with Takuya berating them for their attitude (which probably had most of the kids wetting their pants) and then Katori calmly explaining the need to always approach their studies seriously. It's the usual schoolteacher technique over there.<br /><br />As for Kudo, I have heard rumours that she used to be somewhat of a punk. If so, I think she can put her husband in her place. :)J-Canuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09551828383307840403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2501670448657416824.post-25236090518593551902014-03-01T07:25:15.502-05:002014-03-01T07:25:15.502-05:00Hi J-Canuck.
"Yozora no Mukou" is one o...Hi J-Canuck.<br /><br />"Yozora no Mukou" is one of three SMAP songs I like very much. It's interesting how they can pull off nice songs some times. And it was very interesting to read about the lyrics writing "process" you told. I laughed of the angry KimuTaku joke. We're so accustomed to his cool or happy vibe that it's almost impossible to think of him get angry. Shizuka Kudo probably doesn't agree with me, though.Marcos V.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09531398685057099974noreply@blogger.com
