I don’t wanna feel Blue anymore...
Wasn't it just this year in the birthday post that I wrote how while I have enormous respect for Hyde he didn't really have much of an influence on me as a person and I'm not even that much interested to know more? Well, it just had to happen that on this very day his official autobiogrphy, THE HYDE was released and it's a book that is bound to drastically change my view of him. Hyde was never the one to talk about his personal life so I was quite surprised. He did disclose some things about his childhood but I can't remember where it was. Anyway. The book's content is a lot like Gackt's Jihaku released some 9 years prior. Many small chapters, pictures thrown in and also some self-made art and poems. I only read the first chapter so far but it left a very deep ipression on me and I really look forward to reading more. Even the first paragraph alone is so striking I was really amazed. But I love his style - very concise and up to the point. My Japanese is too poor and it would take me forever to read it but there's a girl who does a very good traslation. I really hope she won't give up on it.
Also now I am ever more determined to finish that long overdue video.
