So, it appears that I have been neglecting my pretty-boy-supplier duties. I’m terribly sorry about that, got distracted by all the nastiness that’s been flying around recently. I think we’re all agreed that everyone could use some happy, positive stuff, yes? So, have some pretty boys (and women).

I posted a pictorial tribute to this one as part of Desire Week, but how about some videos? Meet Miyavi. I’m convinced that no one can watch this guy and not end up in a better mood. He’s just too damn cute, and he really does have an infectious smile. Plus I love the tattoos, and the idea that there’s probably a Prince Albert tucked away there out of sight (he keeps coyly hinting but will never quite confirm it). The fact that he can’t seem to sit still for 30 seconds is a little exhausting to watch sometimes, but charming nonetheless.




First up…Ashita, Genki ni Naare (“I Hope Tomorrow Will Be Sunny” – witness Cassandra’s crappy attempts at translation!). And yes, he’s wearing a skirt in most of this video. He does that a lot.



And now one of the funniest music videos I’ve ever seen. It’s kind of like “School Of Rock”, and it’s divided up into sections with Miyavi teaching various people (an elderly man, a couple of schoolboys, a geisha, and there’s more!) how to rock. And there’s the dude in the gorilla suit. And the go-go dancers, one of whom kind of looks like RuPaul. And look, another skirt!
The man’s completely nuts.


Rock No Gyakushu – Superstar no Joken



Cuteness commencing…I love this video. I like the acoustic version of the song better, but the video is just too loveable to be true.
So basically this song is about the girl he was in love with in high school getting married to another man. Since this is a 24-25 year old guy we’re expecting bitterness, anger and spite, right? Except this is Miyavi, so the song’s full of happy memories, good wishes for her future, and no blame towards her at all. In fact, he keeps thanking her for being such a great friend. Then there’s the “I love you” bit in English…
Did I mention that he’s adorable?

Kekkonshiki No Uta





Now some guitar stuff…really, that’s what I enjoy most about this guy, just watching him play the guitar. Preferably an acoustic. Try to keep your eyes on the hands!

Are You Ready To Rock (Yes, I know the title’s dorky, but listen to the guitar!)




Selfish Love (Shallow note – damn, I love the pulled back ponytail thing he has going on in this video. Also – look at the hands! I’ve played the guitar, and there are only a handful of people in the world who can play like that). This was the only acoustic video I could find on YouTube, sadly, since he’s a far better acoustic than an electric guitar player…he’s a better acoustic guitar player than just about everyone, actually.




Now this video…the song is kind of ho-hum. He was about 19 or so at the time (notice the lack of tattoos on chest and collarbones). But the video…I love this video. Witness Miyavi attempt to pole-dance in a shiny red suit! And try to snog both the stripper and the male backup dancer! And then he’s chewing on the stem of a rose…
We love him, yes we do!

Shindemo Boogie Woogie




More adorable videos from really early in his solo career

Girls Be Ambitious. First solo single. How can you not love a guy who titles his first single “Girls Be Ambitious”? Especially since he said that it was a present to all his female fans.
Also, I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone else with gunmetal grey hair. It’s pretty cool.



Pop Is Dead
Hilarious video, much cuteness, but God damn he needs to eat! And I LIKE skinny guys!




Senor Senora Senorita. Mr Cassandra loves this song because of the Spanish guitar. Try not to laugh at the comedy mustache and the bad dancing. I must admit I kind of dig him with the fangs…




Random guitar playing clip



Posing on stage…love the outfit here, mostly because you can see the tattoos.





And now for something completely inexplicable. He’s singing “If you’re happy and you know it clap your hands”. In Japanese. Why is he singing that? I have no idea. He’s a very strange man. It’s pretty cute, though!



And for pure amusement value…rehearsing with his backup dancers. Yes, he had backup dancers, though that seems to have stopped (I hope). This thing is just too funny. The dance the guys in the background are doing is silly enough, but then there’s Miyavi himself…watch the straight guy try to dance!

Aho Matsuri clip



And just in case anyone’s curious…his old band, back when he was called Miyabi (“elegant”). Back then he REALLY looked like he wanted to be Toshiya when he grew up. He even admitted it, which was cute…it’s always funny watching a celebrity fanboy like a kid. Anway, I didn’t like this band AT ALL, but meh, he was cute even then. He’s easy to spot since he’s A. freakishly tall and B. really skinny. And he has cool silvery and black stripey hair.

Due Le Quartz – Rodeo




And just for Scarlet PervyGirl…A whole fanvid of nothing but fanservice clips. You thought all those slash writers were just making that “they’re all in a band” stuff up, huh? I didn’t make this, obviously, but it’s pretty funny. There are about a dozen different bands in here.

Fanservice…




Enjoy!
