This is a thread for Kaya's new single entitled Kaleidoscope! Post all your crap about that here now. :D

I, personally, am anxious to hear it, and i'm also very anxious to hear the coupled with song. :P

I suppose I should share this really cool information I just heard from fellow forum member Zagatosan. Guess who Kaya's composer for Kaledioscope was?

Any ideas? No? For some reason I had a hunch that it was him, and i was suprised to see that my hunch was right. The person that Kaya has as a composer for Kaledioscope is none other than Kalm of Velvet Eden!

This makes me want the single even more than I did before.. I feel stupid for not buying the single when I had the chance. ::weepy::

Edit: Well. I certainly feel stupid since I only found this out now and apparently Faith and several others have known this for a while..

edit to the edit: Instead of outrightly deleting the name, I just shrank it.. that way if you don't want to know. You don't have to know, it isn't right there in the open. if you do want to know, there ya go.

Honey....those of us who wanted to know already know....(it's on the Kaya Oneman thread)

But we're keeping it secret for those who don't so...*erase?*

EDT: I meant "for those who don't want to know"...>_<

As per someone's request on the other thread, here are the lyrics and the cover.

Front Cover


NOTE: I didn't translate this, these were actually included in the lyric booklet. The Engrish is Kaya's or whoever translated it, the typos are mine

Kaleidoscope:
Welcome home, my darling little boy
Stay by my side forever from now on
Let's keep the door locked and
resume our dream

Now I'll torment you
insanely yet sweetly

A kaleidoscope starts revolving
I'll devote my love
by putting dazzling rosy ecstasy
I don't need anything any more
I need nothering but you
The world exists only for us
The world nobody can interrup us

Sweet punishment for the lost child
I've never forgotten your voice,
smell, habit, gesture, and taste

A kaleidoscope starts revolving
I'll devote my love
by putting dazzling rosy ecstasy
I don't need anything anymore
I need nothing but you
Let's be isolated and fall asleep
without anyone's interruption
by kissing the nape of your neck
for an eternal engagement

No one can stop us
I don't let anyone stop us.

Edit:
remains of mind

Having a ringing in my ears
sounds like someone is telling me
"I became disillusioned by your"
in a sweet voice
I keep living by biting off a piece of flesh
from a gentle person

Looked for the arm having grabbed me
held me tightly, and torm me up softly
Drawing a spiral on a vain dream
and collapse

The sky is too blue to look up
and so cruelly clear
that it hurts my eyes and self-hated feeling
This arm with bare nerve is drooping
without any vigor

Just calmly
I will be decaying

Feeling aching heat in my wrist

Having a ringing in my ears
sounds like someone is telling me
"I became disillusioned by your"
in a sweet voice
Not only do I keep living
by biting off a piece of flesh
from a gentle person
but I keep dying by hurting my love

Does this voice mean something

"I trust you"
echoing idly in the bottom of my ears
as if I recapture the dream

Tainted situation

Having a ringing in my ears
sounds like someone is telling me
"I became disillusioned by your"
in a sweet voice
I keep living by biting off a piece of flesh
from a gentle person
I keep dying by hurting my love

What is the point of having this body?
How ugly it is
Who the fuck am I looking at in a mirror?
There is no point having this body
in a rusty bird cage
wings were taken off
my voice becomes hoarse

Looked for the arms having grabbed me
held me tightly, and torn me up softly
A vain dream draws a spiral
and falls into darkness

falls into deeper darkness

deeper and deeper darkness ...

That cover, and those lyrics are...and, the composer is...! But I suppose that as that world has passed for me, that that is why there's so little that I can find in it appealing, anymore.

Moving on is always for the best? Kaya seems to have, too, and I hope for his success.

I love that cover! It's awesome.

I wish I had ordered the CD while I had the chance... oh well. I'll probably get to listen to it eventually through... other means. Although I didn't quite like the sound of it on the radio interview. Still, I love Kaya's voice.

I hope that the rest of you enjoy it! :)

P.S. If anyone doesn't like theirs, or has an extra copy, and they'd like to sell it, let me know. ;)

I got the same feeling....

... could it be this, by any chance? It's immediately what I thought of when I saw the cover. I can't tell if it's him, Kaya, or the composer... the structure of the face looks like the composer, but who knows. He could have changed a lot.

The lyrics are breathtaking; nothing less than what comes from Kaya. I think I'll agree with what Elec said in the solo thread; I haven't been this excited for Kaya in a long time.


Also, on the topic of the composer... when would it be okay to start naming him? I know people have started to receive the single, but do we wait until more people get it, or....? I suppose it's up to those who don't want to be spoiled on who the composer is and how many threads they want to avoid.

I love the cover...I'm so excited to get my copy! Kaya is so gay. Its heartwarming.

I don't know if I've ever heard song by Kalm...he was from Velvet Eden right? Was Hora in it with him? I've only heard one or two VE songs and I couldn't stand Dada's voice...I love the radio bit of Kaleidoscape though...

Thank you, Flowers! It makes things a little easier for discussion. :)

And yes, Kalm was from Velvet Eden. He was with them for Street of Alice, Ningyou Shoukan, the SAD MASK VHS, and the Street of Alice and Madame Tarantual demotapes. He also has a demotape of his own, and I believe the story of that is that he gave it to Dada to listen to when he went in to audition for Velvet Eden. Or something like that. I'm pretty sure Fox knows the full story.

He was apparently a member of the group "Lurid Aqua" after Velvet Eden, or something to that extent. I don't think it's ever been fully proven, like the whole "Ves.tearage" thing with Mana. Fox and I have pictures that are supposedly of Kalm playing in Lurid Aqua but I don't know the authenticity of them. Fox got them from Kurai, I believe.

Dada's voice is definitely an aquired taste, but I adore both his singing and Kalm's music. Kalm's music is really the height of Velvet Eden.

I feel like such a moron for not ordering when I had the chance... Ugh. I'm kicking myself for it now! You would think, by now at least, that I would have learned to not procrastinate......... ::weepy::

*lol* It is really gay isn't it.
But yes, that picture was one of them....the other one is this....
*sorry to he in the picture. To be safe and make sure I'm not impeding, no one post it anywhere else, okay?*
I'm 99.9% positive that's Kaya's face though.

And just randomly, I had a small person moment. I went into New York n Company to try on some of the pants that were on sale, and the size 2's were all way too big (;_;) Is the store always like that?...or are they a plus sizes store?

I was hoping that someone would say that XD I was pondering whether if it's him or not though...lips, nose, eyes=Kaya

but there's something strange...

>_>

<_<

I guess someone should ask him who it is XD I didn't ::shifty::

The one on the left is definatly Kalm. I can tell just by the eyesand facial shape. I remember that Kalm was supposedly done with music. Well a pox on that! Maybe Dada isn't either? Maybe that's Dada on the cover?! *gaspomgvelvetedenreunionrumor*
