How to Introduce Your Friend to Gackt

[shinimegami21]

Ok, random question time. ^^;

What songs and/or vids would you recommend to a person who has NEVER heard of Gackt before? Like, they are a completely blank slate.

I would offer Lust of Blood, Redemption, and RETURNER ~Yami no Shuuen~ as a song or vid.

I think it's quite hard to choose songs for a new fan since Gackt encompasses so many genres of music.

Perhaps there can be some sort of How to Introduce Your Friend to Gackt tutorial made from all of this. LOL

What I did, to convert my mother, was I watch DIABOLOS. She stared, awed, when he rode in on that horse. Now everytime I watch a concert and she's around, and they do a close up of his face she will comment on how gorgeous she is.
She once even said "He is the most beautiful man I have ever seen."

xD My mom as a bit converted already LOL She saw my desktop and was like 'Tell him I said hi.' LOL

Yesh, DIABOLOS....good choice!

VERY good choice, I tell you!
I personally love the 6th Day & 7th Night Concert most. But DIABOLOS was my first DVD and also the first concert I saw. Even MY mother was stunned. And anyone else who saw DIABOLOS.
No matter what, they always go like "Hoooo~~~ wow wow wow!" When they are watching the beginning of DIABOLOS, the opening movie & so on.. then to the middle part they all laugh their butts off because they wouldn't suspect someone that 'cool' would do something actually that funny.. the second part has never failed to amuse them and make people who watch it smile. Because of Gackts sweetness & being a dork without losing his coolness and beauty... and .. and those kitties +laughs+ really, it's always amusing to see their reaction when Gakkun plays with his kitties... then the talk part I almost everytime try to explain what he is saying, so that they are never bored of what they're seeing..

Through the concert I would always repeat this in many different versions, to make sure I don't adore him just because he's amusing: He's fun no? But still, to me his music is not something I just turn on every time that I am bored. He's so much more,... you know, it'd probably take a decade to explain exactly why I love that man.

I actually wanna own that concert. :/ But I'm trying to save a bit of money at the moment, spending only on necessities...that i can use...although it is a necessity, I can live without it lol

Well, she was a bit mocking of his name at first (in like the first couple of years) but then I'd tell about things he's said and done and she warmed up to him. Then she saw DIABOLOS and that was it >D
