the philippines is my ONE LOVE

[jumper_on]

dear fellow filipinos, today we celebrate our independence day. and so to show my ONE LOVE for my country, i went and watched the ONE LOVE PV . whut.

and i'm sorry. i've been watching it over and over since i got up an hour ago and it just.. i don't know. the song itself is okay, but the video is.. hmmm i'm just gonna say how i feel. cause it's bad to keep things bottled up so.

1.  MATSUJUN

congratulations to him. his voice wasn't that bad. it wasn't like fingernails on a chalkboard at all. so yay!! i'm so happy for him! however, his smiling kinda scared me at some points. there were bits where he looked like he was annoyed, but being the professional that he is, he just smiled a smile that said "i'm gonna get you after this shoot, you incompetent imbecile. just you wait." however, i so love him for those precious aibajun moments in the middle. that part single-handedly saved this video for me.

2. SHO

sho seemed like he didn't know what to do with his hands. i mean off the top of my head i could think of a couple of places where he could've put his hands and it wouldn't have looked awkward at all. but japan probably isn't ready for that yet. however, sho was happy. did you get how HAPPY he was? poor guy, his face must have hurt after all that smiling.

3. OHNO

if this video were a contest, ohno would have won best in show. no weird faces or funny hand gestures. i loved him in this video because he looked so genuine. good job good job.

4. AIBA

2nd place to ohno (only because ohno has the better voice) i love this boy. he just looked perfect. and on top of a wedding cake too. mmmmm..

5. NINO

i don't even know where to start. nino looked positively BORED in this video. he looked straight at the camera only twice. the first time was for a couple of seconds (first chorus) and the second time was just a split second (2nd chorus). i understand though. i wouldn't be able to look people straight in the eye too if i were made to wear THOSE SHORTS. with THOSE UGLY BROWN SHOES. i mean the whole ensemble was just.. ugh. but don't worry nino. i still love you more than any of your better-dressed band mates.

come on stylists. don't you know by now that only aiba can pull off wearing shorts? mmmmm.. aiba in shorts...

overall, this video didn't have as much of an impact on me as the HAPPINESS PV did. where they looked like they were just having the best fun. or even the STEP AND GO PV. those colors!!! it was just a really good shoot. even if nino was wearing that horrendous cape thing.

i absolutely love the middle of it though. aibajun. mmmmm...
