13 2000:  (this
was written when someone commented about how much priveledge Yukihiro was
given in Laruku and that he is the dictator and responsible for the change
in Laruku.)
It's very well said.
But, I don't agree with you.
The band was like one big family
because Sakusaku and hyde were very close friends, and they werent so..
.influenced by the fame then. Also, they hadn't been through all the crap
which happened after sakusaku made a mistake.
I like saku alot, I admit. ^^;;
; So much that I like him same as Yukichan, and the band at two period
of time is really different.
In more technical terms of music,
with Yukichan they are much better, not worse. If it might be said that
they are commercialized, it might be so, since they are more famous now.
They can't possibly go and make something which is really different from
Heart. Also, change is inevitable. The band has changed, not because of
yukki but because sakusaku left. In other words, it _is_ saku's fault.
They have been through alot, when Sakusaku left. they were almost at their
wits' end.
And, yuki didn't get to release
his solo album because of laruku. It was released before Laruku.. .since
95? and the way of music which he had always went was DJ style, electronic
music style. when Tetsu asked him to join laruku, it means that he had
saved laruku.
* note:
the below has made a mistake. It had been Yukihiro's idea to release remixes,
because he had wanted to and they all said "sure" once yukihiro talked
about it. But IMO it's a good thing ^_^
I also don't think that it
is his idea to release remixes. In either case, in technical terms again,
his remixes have been very good and rather different in the electronica
world (ok, I'm not a genius about it ^^;). It is good for that aspect of
music world.
lastly, the spirit cannot be
the same. If saku was still in the band, if laruku becomes more famous,
who is to say that their music won't become any more mainstream? Heavenly
had been as mainstream IMO.. ..^^; true was better.. .. He couldn't have
been the dictator behind Laruku. Music changes with personality, take a
look at Hyde's lyrics from the different period of album and look at the
way it has went. I believe since Saku left, Tetsu, Ken's and Hyde's personality
have changed alot.
Thus, the conclusion is that
this cannot be solely blamed on Yukichan.
