Back with a Present! 4Minute Love Tension PV + Lyrics

Believe me: Working two jobs, going to summer school, and blogging is no easy task as you might have been able to guess from my abscence. I mean I've missed lots of great music, like Queen BoA's Korean comeback and some new rookie groups I'll try to discuss later, but I've gotten a break and it's time to get back on track!

T-ara Lovey Dovey Japanese MV (Where are the other versions?)

So, remember when T-ara announced that they'd release, like, seven music videos to their hit song "Lovey Dovey"? Well, I've been wondering for a long time what the heck happened with this plan. There was the Zombie version, the super long version, the music video version and maybe a dance version (not exactly sure at this point). If I counted them all right, that's only four. So - where the heck are the rest of them?

Someone has a sweet tooth: Kyary Pamy Pamyu's Sweetest Video "Candy Candy"

Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, Japan's Queen of weirdness, has struck again The singer has released another video that further illustrates her quirkiness.

Merry Christmas!

Marry Christmas! Hope you all get what you want and are able to spend time with friends and family! Here's a funy Japanes video to make you laugh and get your day off on the right start!

In other news, I just realized this is my second Christmas with this blog! AMAZING!

Ludacris Collaborating with YG artists + GD TOP advancing to Japan

There may be a possibility that American rapper Ludacris will be working with 2NE1 on their American album! Allkpop recently announced that YG Entertainment and Ludacris signed an agreement to do some collaborations with YG artists. Altough

Just Checking in :)

Hey guys! Teddy is still alive and well, just been tied up with school and other business to post regularly. So to keep my blog in your mind, I'm checking in with a few videos. I realize that I haven't uploaded the Japanes version of some of 2NE1's songs, so here's "Hate You" and "I Am The Best". Please enjoy and stay with me!

PS. Only one more week before I reveal the prizes to my first ever giveaway! Stay tuned!

I do not like CL's rap in this song. Teddy could have written something way better for her. Or she could have done something better, heck! At least Minzy's part was good, right?

4Minute release Japanese "Heart to Heart"

4Minute is now starting their Japanese promotions has recently released their Japanese version of "Heart to Heart"! The latest video does not have the same plot as the original song. Instead it focuses on more on cuteness and showing the girls to the world.Well, hope you enjoy the video!

Lyrics: きゃりーぱみゅぱみゅ(Kyary pamyu pamyu)- PonPonPon

Isn't she freaking adorable?!?!?

So a lot of you guys have been asking for the lyrics to totally amazing, extremely catchy, and random song "PONPONPON" by Kyary Pamyu Pamyu. I've finally found some that people seem to agree are right, or at least accurate. So here are the lyrics below and be glad that you can sing along!

Sneak peak at SNSD's Japanese album!

Are you ready for SNSD to return? Well so am I! It's been far too long without hearing our the voices of our girls streaming through our speakers with a brand new song. Thankfully SMEnt understands that fans need

Koda Kumi - No Regret

Another song by Koda Kumi that is becoming a favorite of mine. This is also "old", just as the previous music post on her. This was apparently the theme song for the anime "Law of Ueki". I like the fast pace of the song and again Koda looks amazin in the video. What do you think of Koda Kumi? Do you like the song, or have you watched the anime?

SNSD releases "Run Devil Run" Japanese MV

I'm actually surprised it's done in a different style than the original Korean version. I was half expecting them to do the first video completely over with the Japanese lyrics. Which do you like better, the Korean or the Japanese video?

Video Spotlight: Make it bump - Far east Movement ft. Koda Kumi

Hot New release! "Make it Bump" by Far East Movement and Japanese artist Koda Kumi. This single will be able for purchase soon! Wish there was more Japanese, but still a good song. Check it out!

Satoshi Tajiri is Quite Alright

Satoshi Tajiri with his Pokemon creations

With the surge of new social media a lot of people are relying a little too much on sites such as Twitter for their news. For example, Satoshi Tajiri has become a Twitter trending topic because of his death in the recent earthquake in Japan. Pokemon fans retweeted "RIP Satoshi Tajiri" and gave their condolences to his family and shared their thanks for creating an anime that has touched our childhood. This a sweet and . Satoshi Tajiri is not dead. NintendoAmerica  tweeted "Thanks for your concern! During the earthquake no one at Nintendo in Japan was injured and there was no apparent structural damage". This confirms that neither Satoshi, nor any of their workers were harmed during the earthquake nor the tsunami. It was just a cyber joke that went hay wire.

Many of the people who tweeted that he had died are now getting backlash for their previous tweets. This just goes to show you that the you can't believe everything you hear.

Always check your sources.

Pray For Japan

If you are reading this post right now, please take a moment to pray for the people of Japan. The country of Japan was hit by a earthquake that triggered a massive tsunami with 13ft waves followed by many aftershocks. Power has been lost to hundreds and some have had their homes taken away from them. As I write this, officials have confirmed that the death toll is expected to be over 1,000.

To learn more about this event please you can go to  www.cnn.com .

If you would like to donate money to help the relief efforts in the Japan you can text REDCROSS to 90999 to give a ten dollar donation that will be added to you cell phone bill or clink here to be directed to their donation page.

Please keep Japan and the other countries that may be affected by the tsunami in your prayers.

Video Spotlight: Thelma Aoyama FT Tae Yang- FALL IN LOVE

I found this video a few weeks ago and I have no idea how I could have missed it! It's really catchy. The song is in Japanese and is sung by Thelma Aoyama and Big Bang's Taeyang. Their voices work well together and Taeyang has speaks really good Japanese if I must say.

For some reason I can't upload the official music video, so instead I recommend you look the video up for yourself on YouTube. Until then, just take a listen to the audio version posted below.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Taeyang is known as Sol in Japan?

KARA-Jet Coaster Love MV REVEALED~!

KARA is back with their first music video since their disbanding rumor. The song, called "Jet Coaster Love", is and I'm loving every bit of it! I'm sure it's going to be on everyone's ipods pretty soon in Japan. The video reminds me of "Honey" at some parts and also a bit of "Jumpin" at 0:20. Be sure to watch Hara, who is especially cute in this video. Check it out below and tell me what you think! KARA FIGHTING!
