Am working on things with the NEWS pacific Concert DVD running on loop.


I have a quick question for everyone on my flist who are JE fans.

Who do you think is the best singer in JE and why?

I'm curious and nihongofrancais and I had a brief discussion about this yesterday so I want to see what others think.

Hrm. I have no Tegoshi icons, but um. Yeah. I think Tegoshi is absolutely, hands down the best singer in J.E. His vocal range is incredible, but for me what makes him the best singer is his live vocals. He is the *only* singer I can think of in J.E. who can really, *really* sing live (and possibly Ohno), and *that* is rare in J.E. In fact, I think singing talent is so far down the list of J.E. requirements that its actually kind of funny.

I love Jin's voice the most personally (in a studio anyways), but his live vocals were hit and miss in the past, and these days are *seriously* questionable. If he's on he's on, but if he's not - OUCH.

Its easy to make all the J.E. boys sound good in a studio, but with a few exceptions most of them can't sing live (Pi is a perfect example - he lip synchs the *entire* way through the past two News concerts, and he's not the only one guilty of it), but then I suspect that whether or not anyone in J.E. can sing or not is completely irrelevant to most fans.

AHEM.
