We Want To See Who You Pair Gackt With!

The singer, band or composer can be anyone modern, or an historic figure, if you can, link to a vid on YouTube that showcases your artist at the time period, or with a song you'd like Gackt and Friend to cover.

For me, I'd pair Gackt with Shirley Manson of Garbage, just cos that's what popped in my head.

The song/era: 'Stupid Girl'

I'd have to choose Annie Lennox!

She has a great range and lot of power behind her. I think it would take someone with a powerful voice to hold their own and not get drowned out by Gackt's vocals!

Janis Joplin - Take Another Piece OF My Heart
yeah i have no idea why, but I'd love to see Gackt try some bluesy rock.

and most of all Prince "Purple Rain" and "Diamonds and Pearls" era....no YT link, he removed all his vids.

I'd have to choose Coldplay. I think that Gackt and Chris Martin have many in common.
And songs... hmm maybe:
Fix you http://pl.youtube.com/watch?v=jBEYyHGbwto
Clocks http://pl.youtube.com/watch?v=HDFmuOtKrBc
and Viva La Vida http://pl.youtube.com/watch?v=dvgZkm1xWPE

Gackt and Bowie need to sing together NOW.

So that my vagina can just totally explode and have done with it.

Cat People http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=gprIR991EkY
Life on Mars http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=ueUOTImKp0k

That would have my first choice, too. Physical and/or vocal androgeny pwns, and she could sing just about anything he could throw at her with the requisite intensity.

I'll go with Renee Fleming singing "Moon Song," showcasing You on violin. I think this song could be made into a duet without too much brutality to the score.

Bonus- if you do an image search on 'Renee Fleming Thais', you'll see that she lost weight and has part of her hair corn-rowed!

I second that emotion!

Good choice, Gakuto, are you listening???

I do totally agree with you about Purple Rain....as I'm a former Prince fan....xD !!!

Are we allowed to time-warp? If so, I'd flip David Bowie back 25 years, Gackt 7 years and go with abiona_sashenka's choice. Visually it would be amazing - imagine a mix of Metamorphoze and Major Tom!
