And hmm...you know it just hit me...
Why did May'n sing that Papapapan song? Any info on that?

Well if you want a serious answer... it's part of her old CD singles before she got into Macross F :)
That isn't quite right :) though not wrong either.
this song is her CD while she still used the name Nakabayashi Mai.
it is not a "single" as the CD is a not-for-sale CD from Zexy(wedding info magazine).
Zexy uses this song on their tv advertisement and Mayn's is the 4th. other singer were kimura kaela, sunset wish, keyco etc.

it is a not-for-sale so the only way to get it is by auction :heh: or work at zexy :D

Very nice video, indeed.

Incidentally, I stumbled upon this:

F3SJItECuwA

And, ever since, I've been scourging the interwebs after a MP3 of it - but I don't think there is any. Some kind soul could help out a fella? Any links to this Macross - The Tribute CD (which has a Iijima single version of Angel Voice) would be appreciated, as well...

a nice alto x sheryl with papapapan song by may'n ^^.

To be honest, my views on fan-made music videos for anime tend to be ambivalent: a few good ones, and a lot of bad ones.

But I think this one is well-made. The song was nicely chosen as well. Thanks for the heads up. ;)

Although, if they do a duet of Angel Voice, it'll be the first time they actually do it. The AMV above is just a digital merging of two separate versions into one.

Also...
No one posted a link to this video? Pwolf - Macross: Angel's Voice (http://www.animemusicvideos.org/members/members_videoinfo.php?v=166408) (Info, DDL and preview available for members.) Probably my favorite Macross AMV to date.

Watch it in HQ or HD if you can. If not, here's the embedded video:

Wow! This has been of my favorite Macross songs ever and Megumi really delivered it quite well here.

I can't wait to have all this compilation of vintage Macross songs from that concert on a CD.

God, I cannot believe I missed this one. Probably the most perfect fan-made video I've ever seen. And, yes, I noticed both the counting tempo and some lipsync, as well. This was a very well done piece! Congratulations to Pwolf, on a very good work.

Also, like I have stated before, this is a not so bad version of Voices. I liked it, at least, more than Mylene's version from way back.

Wait wait wait...there's a Mylene version?

Are you sure you're not thinking of the Ishtar version from "Macross the Tribute"? That one was...a little stiff in delivery, I thought.

Although they changed it up, they did a really good job considering the difficulty of this song and the singer wasn't half bad either. He was pretty consistent and playing the guitar at the same time isn't easy either. I give them props :p

makes me finally understand, that what I really, REALLY want out of the next two movies, is an intensely toothachingly cutesy Sheryl Nome dansu.


I don't care if it becomes a retardedly annoying mindless meme like the KIRA did.
I wants it.
Because deep down inside I know sheriru is make of sugar and moe.

Also a bit late but

@ NC (fan)boy band...

I like their voice toneeeeeeeee;;;;
Then again I've crushed on a lot of japanese boys solely because of their voice tone...



Like the guy who did the japanese fandub song of Kagamine Len's "SPICE!"
God his opening half a second intro talk was mind bogglingly swoon worthy.


they have such a cute voice tone ;____;


Though they make NC sound like an Ultraman opening song LMFAO

Anata no Otot? So Otot means fart in your language? Are you Filipino? :D

Actually, it's kinda hilarious, even though I love Ranka.

Yep, I'm Filipino :D. And yeah, "Otot" means fart in Filipino and the "Oto" in "Anata no Otot" always gets misheard. :heh:

It was my friend (a Ranka fan) who suggested this parody. :heh:

Making a parody doesn't necessarily make someone a "hater", I believe it's wrong to assume something such as this. I said that because I dislike anything dealing with "farts" to get laughs but others would find it funny, it's just personal taste. I don't mind parodies and that's all it is so it's best to leave it at that.

Alto is saying about how Sheryl opened up the sky for him. Funnily enough, it was originally "Sheryl and Ranka" that opened up the sky for Alto but the AMV creator stealthily edited Ranka's name out. :heh:

Oh hell no, I hope the music was added by some random person because I would be infuriated if they used MF's music as well (which I doubt.) Either way, this is such a rip-off of Frontier and it's obvious with all the "folding" going on and the VF "look-a-likes." This angers me to no end and should be taken off the air, it's a disgrace to the actual franchise :frustrated:

You took the words right out of my mouth but, jesus christ. That was just god awful. I never knew that it was possible to make Lion sound so terrible. Even if this rendition of the song sounded half-decent, the fact remains that what they're doing is just pathetic and disgraceful. Honestly, they're just trashing on the franchise.


Edit: Ok, thank god. It seems that the song is homemade, so at least I don't mind that. It's just a cover in chinese, that's fine as long as the rip-off series doesn't actually make their own version of Frontier's music.

For those who does not understand Chinese commenting on the alleged Lion plagiarism:

That entire song was actually meant to degrade Astro-Plan. The lyrics are so awful, it pretty much started out stating: This is a production resulted from people bored of jerkin' off. :heh:

Chinese fans are not unaware of Astro-Plan's origins, and many are not very appreciative of this production. But ultimately, its a state decision.

But, frankly, I don't know why Alto's having such a tough time choosing... Mackerel ("aji") or Sheryl's leg ("ashi")...is it really THAT difficult to decide?

Hello! XD Hmmm this is my first time posting anything on animesuki, usually I just read it. XD

Hmm so I was planning to remake my AMV with Vegas Pro so I can add special effects and maybe switch up some scenes. A friend of mine suggested that I post my AMV here for suggestions since my friends just say "Its great!" or "Its cool!" and that's not helping . . . >.< So if you have any suggestions please feel free to tell me. XD hmmm I don't know how long it will take me to remake this so after this please don't expect me to remake this really fast. >3<

So basically what I was trying to do in this video was to show Sheryl's strength, relationship (love life?) with Alto, and at the same time trying to make it match the lyrics (which is on the video with translations).

The 1/3rd of the song (minus the very beginning) is the happy times with Alto. Then the 2/3rd is the more rough times for Sheryl, when Ranka comes and her health is getting bad. Then the rest I tried to show her strength to keep going forward even though things seem bad and her influence on Alto. . . Or at least that's what I am trying to show. >3<

It's probably better if you guys just see the video I can't really explain it well. >3<

Oh and to you Ranka fans if I made Ranka look like a villain then I want you guys to know that it wasn't my intention to do so. >3< And I am "not allowed" to since on of my friends is a big Ranka fan . . . although I have could left a scene in this video that made it look like Ranka said "Ha! I got Alto!" *peace sign and wink at Sheryl in Victory* *Sheryl falls into despair* . . . It was a good thing I let my other friend see this before my Ranka fan saw it. >3< I still can't believe I didn't see that. . .

Sorry for my rambling. >3<

It's already a pretty awesome AMV, for the most part you did a pretty good job with picking clips and deciding where in the song to put them.

I do have to agree that the bit with Ranka didn't work out very well though. I guess I would have liked to have seen something that actually mirrored the events of the series a bit more closely rather than implying that Alto went full for Ranka (and I especially disliked the impression that Alto knocking Sheryl down gave when used out of its original context). It might even be worth considering doing a section on Sheryl's despair in general rather than things about Ranka specifically if you're redoing that part of the vid.

The other thing that kinds of bugs me is that your sequencing of events makes it seem like Sheryl and Alto did escape together on his valkyrie, only for that later to not turn out to be the case. Might have been good to include him being distracted by other targets before she could get on board or something.

But aside from those issues I think you did a very good job of selecting clips.

I was thinking about changing the Ranka part. >3< I was debating if I should cut out some of the Ranka scenes and add Sheryl in it instead.

Those are both extremely cool. I take it they're both fan made? (Edit: scratch that, looks like they're related to a MF Pachinko game.)

Much as I'm a Sheryl fan I kind of feel the Ranka one works a bit better, Sheryl seems a bit out of place in her surroundings and her movements seem a little off somehow (I was thinking they were too repetitive, but now I'm wondering if perhaps they're a bit too fast in some parts). But still both videos are very cool, and I do have t compliment the Sheryl one for that impressive bit with Alto's valkyrie near the beginning.

Figured that out myself when I started browsing around through related vids a bit. And yeah, it does somewhat. I tend to judge professional and fan made stuff by different standards.

I have to say I'm hoping we don't see too much CGI in the official stuff. CGI mecha is fine, it looks great. But I tend to prefer the characters themselves to be drawn 2d.

Ack, the videos have been taken down due to copyright issues. I tried getting them the legit way, which is, painstakingly, going to the Macross fever website and hunting for Ai-kun. I found one, but it looks like I need a lot more to view the videos. I quit! :P

A nice AMV using "Liebe" here. I actually kind of like Liebe but I don't think it was the most appropriate song to include on a Christmas album. :lol:

"Liebe" or "Ribe" is actually about hope and prayer, and most Japanese people are religious, so Christmas is a celebration of such. So this song actually fits in with the moral of Christmas. It's better than if Diamond Crevasse or Northern Cross were on it.
I didn't get the vibe that "Liebe" is a song of hope, at least not with lyrics like:

If I lost you, then the world would let go
Of everything in light, wouldn’t it?
And yet, if fulfilling our respective roles is our parting
Then that’s okay

On that day, I was the seashell
Washed ashore, and you were the sand
Embracing me, as if protecting me

I won’t cry, I don’t cry
I don’t chase after your back
I don’t stare at you, I won’t be sad
I won’t forget about your scent
Love never cries, love never sleeps, love never dies
I want to believe
I want to live fiercely, I want to be strong
I won’t lose anything, I won’t forget

Just by having you, just by your being there
I always felt relieved
Why are your body heat and laughter
So tender?
If they say that someday, when life ends, the soul will be free
Leave the body, and travel for eternity
Then when love ends, the soul of love will also be free
And travel for eternity, right?

I won’t cry, I don’t cry
I don’t chase after your back
I don’t stare at you, I won’t be sad
I won’t forget about your scent
Love never cries, love never sleeps, love never dies
I want to believe
I want to live fiercely, I want to be strong, strong
I won’t lose anything, I won’t forget

I won’t forget

I
Don’t need anything anymore, not even warmth
Because I can warm myself up
I won’t let myself hurt you, I don’t dream
I won’t be afraid of anything, I won’t forget

Love never cries, love never sleeps, love never dies
I won’t forget


I thought Christmas in Japan was more of a "Let's celebrate together" holiday in Japan rather than a religious one. Someone feel free to correct if I'm wrong.

Nice video, btw, darthtabby. :)

I didn't feel like correcting another one of LoveMeKags's assumptions, because we had been doing too much of that, but since you brought it up...

There is a difference between being religious and spiritual. Most people in Japan are not religious and do not subscribe to a religion. People like myself would have been considered a definite minority, since Christians consist of no more than 2 ~ 3% of the total population. The majority of Christians concentrate in the Western area, such as Nagasaki. Most people would have no idea, or care about the meaning of Christmas, other than it being a holiday to decorate trees, shopping, trade gifts and eat a lot... etc.

I probably would have preferred it if you'd let me post the video myself, but thanks for the help anyway LMK. At least I know how to do it for the next video now.

I believe Karice is right about Christmas being a lover's holiday in Japan. With that in mind the title for Liebe is appropriate... it's just that the combination of the lyrics and how it sounds doesn't seem appropriate for such a happy occasion. Then again "Merry Christmas Without You" doesn't seem entirely appropriate for a romantic holiday either. :lol:

- Tak*shrugs* if you say so. Most media certainly play up the lovers aspect. It's either spend time with your loved one, or do nothing all that special most of the time - though people who have no significant others may certainly get together in groups of friends or as a class ala what happened in Kimi ni Todoke. Just not all that common from what I experienced.

And besides, Christmas isn't even a (public) holiday in Japan. The big 'let's celebrate together (as a family) event' is the New Year, which takes place a week later. If you compare Japanese and Westerners, Christmas and New Year swap places in terms of significance.

You obviously did not read my entire post. Read it again.

It's not an assumption.

90% of Japanese people are religious. The facts don't lie that almost 85% of anime has ONE relation to religion, even Buddha. I cannot FIND an anime that doesn't have a stop at the temple or prayers, even the talk of exorcism and whatnot. Japanese are very religious.

Right, and if we use Hollywood as a basis for American society, then the US is supposed to be rampant with death & destruction everywhere, either by drugs, gangs or alien invasions.

Anyway, I would really appreciate it if you would stop using anime as a reference to Japanese culture/society. First and foremost, ITS NOT REAL! Second, you haven't lived there. Third, I can assure you, exorcisms are rare, and far in between. Next thing I know, you'd be claiming Japanese people are born with pink hair.

Besides, how many Japanese people have you asked?

As I said, there is a difference between spiritual and religious. Japan has no religious canon or religious dogma. People visit temples & shrines not because of a religious conviction or because divine intervention is feared. Religion serve not as a moral guideline, but as a foundation for tradition and activities. For example, its part of New Years tradition to visit a shrine/temple. Sometimes you pray, but the prayer is more or less like a birthday wish, nothing more.

Really, your assumptions are as bad as stereotyping Americans as a bunch of ignorant, fat, lazy couch potatoes "with food pipped through their apartments" (according to Irish comedian Dylan Moran). Don't prove him right.

Stop making things up, its getting very irritating. Moreover, people have already explained lyrics to you, please read them before jumping to conclusions.

Sure, you might not be, but the others around you might, even people you don't know might be religious.

And to say that "Liebe" is not a Christmas song is flawed. "Merry Christmas Without You" (the very word "without") also fits into a non-Christmas song. It's more of a song of prayer that his/her spirit is with them. "Tablet" didn't belong on the album either, for it was about them trying to get their love's attention to the other he failed to notice and write their feelings down, hence the name "tablet." And another one that didn't belong was "Songbird." All of these did not belong because they had no joy like you say, no happiness, they were spiritual songs filled with love. And that's why you don't think they fit. Well, as I recall, Christmas is ABOUT hope and love. I think you forget this fact because 90% of the world is more happy with PRESENTS than songs of hope and love and a nice warm meal. I don't blame you for that, just saying it's ridiculous.

The whole album is about love, hope, and prayer. It's a spiritual joining. And 90% of those who hear "Merry Christmas Without You" think it is for Klan once Michael died. "Liebe" is the same. It is an expression of Sheryl's feelings towards Alto, praying that he will return from battle alive but she will still fight to live even if he's gone. She will not lose her love or her heart. Same with Ranka in "Songbird."

3 songs with the same hope, love, and prayer:
Liebe
Merry Christmas Without You
Songbird

The songs may not belong to you, but it is obvious to EVERYONE that the songs, by the lyrics, are about prayer in a time of need. And, as I remember, movie 1 had just come out at that time, so the war was still heavy. If I remember correctly, the songs were supposed to display that Christmas had passed in Macross F before the 2nd movie, which signaled the "many months have passed" piece.

LMK just a hint of advice NEVER assume the customs, traditions, or general lifestyles that people in other countries live in using movies as your guideline. Because chances are those will be wrong VERY VERY WRONG.

Also some people here actually live in Japan or are Japanese, don't assume that you know more than them about the place they come from/live in just because you saw a few movies, that just happen to take there.

Also
Liebe isn't a prayer, simple knowledge of German will tell you that the song name means lover
Merry Christmas without you Also isn't a prayer
ditto for Songbird.

They are songs about being in love.

Christmas is not religious in every country.

@LoveMeKags
There are so many things I want to say, but I'll keep it to the following.

'kami-sama' =/= 'God' as most other religions understand it
Shintoism (the main 'religion' in Japan) =/= Buddhism
as Tak already noted, being spiritual =/= being religous
having the word 'god' in a song doesn't mean that the singer/writer/listener is religious.


Will you please, for goodness sake, STOP generalising about Japan?

But either way you look at it, Japanese people ARE religious. I think I can rest my case with a history lesson that there is a REASON Buddha exists and that they have all this time held a belief in their God. I'm not assuming that people are religious, because, you know, Sheryl showed her own belief in God by singing it in Diamond Crevasse.

Remember what I said about assuming things?

Never assume that only you have knowledge about something because chances are you don't, and you're wrong. In this case its both.

Songbird



Can you hear my voice?
Does it reach you?
The echo of my words from my small-timbred voice
Gently leading you by the hand
Like we're flowing together, we understand each other
and softly wake up.
The nostalgic, happy feeling of wanting to cry



Where does this voice come from?
From the inside of my heart, that deep place
The thoughts I want to convey to someone are born
From a faraway distance, they journey far
To convey those thoughts straightforwardly
Overflowing feelings


Can you hear my voice?
Does it reach you?
Like a single drop of rain
When it touches your sad, bitter heart
From then, something changes
Does a time that's like eternity start to move?



I fall into my voice as well
In this way, something like warmth is here
The thoughts I want to convey to you
are swallowed up in overflowing feelings, pushed to the outside
Right now,
I want to hold you tightly, so tightly



More than frightening, being able to become strong: is this love?
Everything around me seems to be sparkling
Everything is living


(La~lalala)
Sparkling light is incessantly raining down
This is love, isn't it?
My entire body is filling up with joy
This is love too, isn't it?


(La~lalala)
Do you understand my voice?
In this way too, there are things to believe in
The thoughts I want to convey to you
are swallowed up in overflowing tears, pushed toward the outside


Like a dream
I want to hold you right now
I want you to come here right away, right away, right away
(La~lalala)
I want to hold everything right now
Since I don't need anything strongly, strongly, strongly

I want to hold everything
That's my wish
Talks about being in love

Liebe
If I lose you, then the world
will probably relinquish all of its light.
Nevertheless, if us both completing our roles is parting
it's all right like this, isn't it?



On that day, I was a shell, and
The you that washed up was sand
You embraced me as if you were protecting me



I will not cry I won't cry or anything
I won't chase after your back or anything
I won't gaze after you or anything I'm not sad
I won't forget your fragrance
Love doesn't cry Love doesn't sleep Love doesn't die
I want to believe
I want to live furiously I want to be strong
I won't lose anything I won't forget


Only when you're there, only when you're there
No matter when it was, I was always at peace
Your warmth and laughter
Why are they so kind?
Someday, when my life ends, and my soul becomes free
When it's separated from my body, if that's called a journey to eternity
When love ends, and love's soul becomes free
That's a journey to eternity, isn't it?

I will not cry I won't cry or anything
I won't chase after your back or anything
I won't gaze after you or anything I'm not sad
I won't forget your fragrance
Love doesn't cry Love doesn't sleep Love doesn't die
I want to believe
I want to live furiously I want to be strong, so strong
I won't lose anything I won't forget



I won't forget


As for me
Nothing like warmth will enter any more
I'll be able to warm myself, so
I won't be able to be wounded I won't dream or anything
I won't fear anything I won't forget

Love doesn't cry Love doesn't sleep Love doesn't die
I won't forget
Its not a prayer, its talking about being in love.

Merry Christmas Without You
I wait for the letter without a recipient address
From his planet in the distant yonder
We’re two fragments swimming at the edge of this world
–satellites of love

The city lights are a dazzling tremolo
Sparkling and shaking, Jing a-Ring a-Ding!
I think of you in our story of love
I’ll confess to space

Wishing well, Kiss & tell, on a night of shooting stars
Happy Merry Christmas without You

The intermittent hologram
Dissolves away when it touches my fingers
On the other side of my window, there’s a downpour in the galaxy
It looks just like a diamond

The busy world is an allegro
Make it loud, Bang the Tambourine!
You threw a shooting star just now
I simply try reaching my hand into space

Prayers and light melt together in Harmony
Happy Merry Christmas without You

Look, if I project the scenery you gazed at
Deep behind my closed eyes
Then a story I have yet to see will continue endlessly, So Long!

Cassiopeia, Capella, Andromeda-
A melody transcends time and resonates

The snow fluttering down in this city
Is a fantasia where God sowed seeds

Cassiopeia, Capella, Andromeda-
A melody transcends time and resonates
The snow fluttering down in this city
Is a fantasia where God sowed seeds

The busy world is an allegro
Make it loud, Bang the Tambourine!
You threw a shooting star just now
I simply try reaching my hand into space

The city lights are a dazzling tremolo
Flickering and burning, Jing a-Ring a-Ding
Even if this world is going to be over
I’ll still fall in love with you again

The tremolo of light overflows
The throbbing in my chest goes Jing a-Ring a-Ding
What I retrace with my numb fingers
Are the words of a promise that I dreamed of

The city lights are a dazzling tremolo
Sparkling and shaking, Jing a-Ring a-Ding
I think of you in our story of love
I’ll confess to space

Wishing well, Kiss & tell, on a night of shooting stars
Happy Merry Christmas without You

Wishing well, Kiss & tell, I want to hug you
Happy Merry Christmas without You

Wishing well, Kiss & tell, I want to hug you
Happy Merry Christmas for You

Talks about separation, and once again love

Also just so you know Cosmic Cuune is not canon to the Macross F as none of the songs show up in any of the series, its just a christmas album, for fans which shouldn't be taken seriously.

Also on what do you say that the Japanese are religious? What are you basing your knowledge on? Keep in mind there are people who've actually been to Japan who are correcting you in this thread.

You should also look up what Buddhism is before you start referencing religions, as Japan did not create that religion, it was originated from India.Buddhism Fast Facts - Religion Facts (http://www.religionfacts.com/buddhism/fastfacts.htm) and Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddhism) since you like to use it.

Also there are articles on this on religion in Japan in Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_Japan), Japan Guide (http://www.japan-guide.com/e/e629.html), Fast Facts about Japan (http://www.facts-about-japan.com/modern-religion.html),e (http://www.mapsofworld.com/japan/culture/religion-in-japan.html)t (http://www.japansociety.org/a_view_of_religion_in_japan)c (http://www.getreligion.org/2011/03/religion-and-tragedy-in-japan/). Hell CNN (http://religion.blogs.cnn.com/2011/03/14/how-japans-religions-confront-tragedy/) even did a report on it.

Now please research the topic before you embarrass yourself further.

Oh and for the record:
Being Spiritual=/=Being Religious (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiritual_But_Not_Religious)

Also just because a character mentioning "God" once in a song, doesn't mean that they are religious, and you shouldn't base your knowledge of a country off an anime.

Just because you belong to a religion doesn't automatically make you religious. Neither does singing or talking about God mean that you believe in one.

Japan is one of the nations where religion is least important in people's lives. (http://www.gallup.com/poll/114211/Alabamians-Iranians-Common.aspx)
[PDF] 65% of Japanese don't believe in God (http://www.pitzer.edu/academics/faculty/zuckerman/Ath-Chap-under-7000.pdf)

A study made by Pitzer concludes that Sweden, Vietnam, Denmark, Norway and Japan are the least religious countries in the world. (http://www.kirainet.com/english/the-least-religious-countries/)

Well, we all know that Ledouche is inside an emo whiny guy with incredibly little foresight, so it really fits the original singer. :p

Not exactly sure where to put this, but here's a nico vid featuring that Macross Frontier game!machine!thing. It has some new short yet cute animations, (just like the one from one of the previous posts that featured a different scene to episode 18, where Alto helps Sheryl out in the rain.)

Here it is (http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm15104683).

The most interesting scene is around 5:40, where you see a different spin on Alto catching Sheryl in her concert. :D

Oh and...*drools* lots of Michel. :love:

Well, having the kanji handy enough so I can put it to Google Translate, makes it a bit easier. Recognizing it on a monitor screen is a bit more difficult for people with no familiarity with the japanese language, mate - honestly, just watching anime and reading translated manga does not equate a desire or an affinity to learn it.

I, for one, have always wanted to learn - but I don't have the time to invest in it, not now, anyway... So, I'll have to keep hanging onto Google or (semi)officially translated media, for the foreseeable future, dude.

I found this live Universal Bunny video from May'n's movie documentary thingy.
What makes this one particularly stand out is how May'n uses two different voices for the "White Bunny" and "Black Bunny" parts. I guess this is what she had meant in her blog post of long before about how she had initially wanted to have a cutesy voice for the white parts, and a devilish one for the black parts but Yoko said that she should just stick to one. :p

Lancel
2011-11-23, 16:04
Hah, May'n had the same idea I did. Yet again May'n tries to break the tie to be my favorite singer of all time. I was always a little disappointed by the lack of voice changing in the song, to me it seemed an obvious step to do a sexy and a cute voice for the two bunnies. Maybe it's a bit silly, but I liked it.

If you think that's something :D, you should watch her RHYTHM TANK concert DVD or Bluray. She sang a total of 27 songs :twitch: but even still, her voice was very outstanding up to the end...I mean, she sang Northern Cross for her 24th song, WTF :heh: ("Wouldn't she want to get rid of that one as early as possible?" -vivitoru :heh: ).

In any case, you can really see her shine here. Oh and I counted I think 9 songs from Macross Frontier. There's the usual staple of Iteza (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BV5PtVDDBmE), Diamond Crevasse (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8iFAxxtvWU), Infinity (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCQpzLyL4Vc), Welcome to My Fanclub's Night (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73av5jAeLC8), Northern Cross (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKKgsCB9lyU), and Lion (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZ-c9biH2Uo).

The odd ones are:
