Busy boy! I think they all deserve a break after that :-/

Are we counting Flower as 1 PV or 2? What about Platinum Box X? The general release hasn't happened yet but the Dears one is out.

There was also the WOWOW Thanks For Music appearance shortly after the Asia Song Festival.

[karadin.livejournal.com]

well, the last platinum box released in January this year, those are difficult to list

Flower counts as 1 - though I added it had 2 versions

I llisted thanks for music in tv appearences - but since that was live, I added it to lives and reduced tv by 1

Wow, that's really impressive. Especially after several years of _almost_ silence... (of course, it's also wasn't silence, but almost no new music)

O_O....when listed like this...I'm amazed he doesn't sleep a year after all this work! SUGOI! This man is a media genius.

Was the Ghost pv made in 2009?

And 119 magazines, wut. So many XD

[karadin.livejournal.com]

the Ghost PV was made in 2008, but was released in early jan 2009.

Magazines insane this year, but that also counts newspapers.

[sakuyuki.livejournal.com]

I see, I mix up the dates. :)

[karadin.livejournal.com]

well its not so much a mix up, for example, the Stay the Ride Alive PV was made and aired in 2009 but it willl not release until Jan 2010, so we can list it as a produced PV, but not a single this year.

How is that man even still standing?!

[karadin.livejournal.com]

Good question.

[irisangel.livejournal.com]

All that training comes in handy. ;-)
