Today's post is one that involves me talking about that one man whom I wish I could marry (as opposed to 'fuck senselessly') but will probably not due to our paths never crossing. The man whom I will judge every future boyfriend on in terms of personality, sense of humour, talent, and looks. In that order.
His name is Yuya Matsushita (松下優也) and he is a 21 year old Japanese R&B singer who debuted in 2008 with the song 'foolish foolish'. Although the song sounds very similar to Ne-Yo's 'So Sick' (almost the same melody and key, but he didn't write the song, so...), it is a beautiful song and shows that Yuya is not a typical J-pop idol singer. His voice is beautiful, and his dancing skills are amazing as well. He cites Michael Jackson as his main influence and it can be seen in his dancing, heard in his music, and in photo shoots (as seen below). He strives to continue the legacy that is MJ, but he is also his own self in terms of musicianship and artistry. He can play the piano, speak English quite well, and has also acted in some dorama series, as well as the live action musical of the anime series Kuroshitsuji (黒執事) in the lead role of the demon butler, Sebastian Michaelis.
For someone who has obvious talent (and incredibly good looks), it surprises me that Yuya is still underrated as a singer and musician. It can't be because his songs sound the same; there is a variety of ballads, upbeat tracks, and songs that may cause spontaneous pregnancy. He covers so much ground for someone his age, and is someone that people should pay more attention to. He has performed in the USA at the Fanime convention, so hopefully his star will shine brighter in the next year or so as more people both in and outside Japan discover him.
So why would I make a post that comes across as both serious and gushy about a guy whom I'll never be with, let alone MEET? Well...something about him just does things to me. I don't know what it is about him. Sure, there are plenty of other musicians and entertainers who are just as talented as he is (maybe even more so), but something about Yuya just brings a smile to my face and makes my heart skip a beat or two. Or three. I think he's the first 'celebrity' (I hate using that term) I've fallen in love with, as opposed to having a crush on. Everything about him is perfect to me, even when he's being a total dork (and his dance moves cause me to scream at inappropriate times). ^^;; He seems like someone I'd like to hang out with as a friend, as well as someone I could see myself being in a relationship with.I guess I'd better start collecting cats, then.
えーと、優也君、このブログポーストを読んでなら、ごめんなさい。大好きだね。。。ww ♥♬
