[Fan Account] LOR Osaka Concert

huhuhuhu 2010-1-28

I want to rush out this fan account before my next stop so bear with its roughness.

The Osaka Jo hall is packed. I feel really grateful to the Japanese fans. They have to pay a straight price of 12,000 yen, knowing perfectly well that many of them will be sitting far away. Yet they are so contented, so supportive – a full house concert, with fans all holding light sticks, chanting and cheering for our prince. I am sure our prince feels the love and the support. I am sure this is why our prince "gives" himself totally to the fans in the two concerts. This is his way of returning his love and gratitude. To me, it is both so touching, yet also heartbreaking.

Our prince started the show with a slightly different style – he is still wearing his formal suit, but with his sleeves casually half rolled up. Formality blended with casualness, a gentleman with a touch of wildness and sexiness. These dual, apparently contradicting qualities yet blended so harmoniously, so naturally, so uniquely attractive on our prince can be seen and felt throughout the concerts. I will just high light a few:

After a sad "Only You", our prince walked towards the front of the stage, got a towel, talking to us as he wiped his sweat off his face. Then looking at us mischievously, he put the towel under his armpit. When we screamed, he used the towel to blow his nose. More screams, and he threw the towel to the lucky one. When we were still in happy commotion, he raised his arm for silence, took the microphone and sang in such rich feelings "Hand Shake". He is now totally a sad, melancholic prince and he could make you cry our heart out.

Likewise, at the last part of "Nan", our prince knelt down, panting, tortured by his emotion. We were all holding our breath, watching him in helpless pain. The hurt prince then stood up and walked towards the backstage. He turned slightly, looked at us, pulled his T to reveal part of his body. Screams. He pulled up his T. More screams. He pulled down his pants and unbuckled his belt. More screams. He pretended to take off his shoes. Yet more screams. He then smiled and sucked his fingers, once, twice, three times, and then puked. He turned from the saddest prince into the cutest, naughtiest boy! The amazing thing is you don't feel that he is acting his manliness or his cuteness. He is naturally both.

Our prince must have thrown the most towels to fans at the Osaka concerts. He even threw bottles of water to us when he saw how much people really wanted to have something from him. And he never forgets fans who sat far away yet equally so supportive. He asked us to wait and tried to tie a knot with the towel. This way it adds weight. He then used all his strength and pitched the towel as if pitching a baseball towards the second floor fans. And it landed exactly where he aimed and caught by a lucky fan. He did the same to the other side. When he ran out of towels, he picked up the bottles of water. "Be careful" he said as he threw the bottles out. I was really, really touched. Our prince is so thoughtful, so considerate, so caring – what more can a fan ask for?

The Osaka concerts to me are both touching and heartbreaking. I can't help but feel the mutual love between our prince and us. I also can't help noticing how much our prince is trying to give to his fans, to a stage where he has totally put his own well being behind.

I believe our prince is still suffering from some injury to his back and legs, (or at least not fully recovered). He held his waist with his hand a number of times after some powerful dance moves. He smiled as he did so, but I can tell the pain is there. Yet nothing will stop our prince from giving himself totally to us, not even his pain. He still jumped down high the second night when he sang "I'm coming", followed by a somersault. When he was right in front of me shaking his hair, I could see his sweats splashing out. At the encore parts, he was happy, he also wanted us to be happy, and he danced to total oblivion of himself. (even though he has to touch his waist again after some dance moves). I suddenly feel that our prince is such a determined and strong man that every woman wants to be protected by him, yet at the same time he is such a pure and simple child that every woman wishes to protect him from being hurt.

And both man and child are so naturally, so uniquely him, our prince.
