if there is anyone... would like to share to me... i really hope that would be happen... thank you... arigatou..

hide changed my life! I still find that amazing - how can one whom you didn't know nor even saw for real change all of your thoughts?and now I answer to myself - it's the music! the sound, the lyrics, especially the meanings~

I always cry when listening to Flame

I read a lot of his songs' lyrics carefully and now I do understand everything he was trying to say to us - LIVE FOR YOUR DREAM, REACH FOR IT AND NEVER EVER STOP TRYING, BECAUSE ONLY THE DREAMS KEEP US ALIVE, there is no yesterday...this is what Hideto-sama taught me I hope he taught you too!

miss "Little Pink Riding Hood" had questions about hide's alcohol addiction ~
I have a few versions :
*maybe hide wanted to forget his school days, because I believe it was really hard for him back then....
*maybe somebody broke his heart and it was very painful to live with that p.s. some of his lyrics even tell such stories.
*maybe hide was tired of facing walls all over again in his path of life, alcohol is some kind of relief, please agree
*maybe hide wanted different life than one he had back then?
*maybe he simply found it exciting being drunk all the time (?!)
and so on...he really might of had one of these reasons to lush alcohol like water

Anyways, many generations forth are to find hide all over again, and he'll teach them how to live through his lyrics, his music, his personality....

God, I'm missing him so much

I have always looked up to you hide. You are the most creative beautiful soul i have ever known, and i know you will always be in everyone's hearts. You have the power to reduce me to tears with a single mention. You left this world when i was 4 years old. Finding a space where you once were broke my heart. I may still be quite young, but that gives me the opportunity to pass on your memory to my family. Never forgotten. Our amazing pink spider; angel, hero, inspiration, love. I know you are looking down on us, sending your words into our hearts & minds. You are my reason for believing in what i do, and i want to thank you for that.

RIP Hideto Matsumoto. 10 years. And the pain never ceases. But your love continues eternally. My thoughts are always with you. I promise to be the best person i can, for you
