LOVELIVE is back!

Yes, my fellow MEG fans, LOVELIVE is now back in business. I will working to update the site much more frequently, and possibly update the layout eventually.

In case you haven’t caught up, here is MEG’s currently tentative schedule for 2012:

• A cover album comprising of her iTunes France singles (sans “Ma Mélissa” due to copyright issues), in addition to new cover material, will be releasing on April 25th.
• A new original single will be released on May 23rd. Mums the word on the producer or any further details as of yet.
• A one-man party will be held on June 23rd. Dubbed “Arrivée”, it will mark her official 10th anniversary as an artist. Ticket details can be found on her official site and blog.
• MEG will be collaborating with fellow electronic artist RAM RIDER for the song “Hijitsuzai Boy”, to be featured on his upcoming collaboration album “AUDIO GALAXY -RAM RIDER vs. STARS!!!-”. The song will be an “answer” song to his solo track “Hijitsuzai Girl”, which will appear on his album “AUDIO GALAXY -RAM RIDER STRIKES BACK!!!-”. Both will be released on April 11th.

It’ll be a good year for MEG fans.

“Ma Mélissa” upcoming digital single!

Staying true to the “release each month on iTunes France” schedule, MEG will be releasing another digital single on the iTunes France store on July 25th. “Ma Mélissa”, the theme song to the popular French children’s variety show “Les Minikeums” (which ran from 1993 to 2002), was composed originally by singer-songwriter Roddy Julienne. You can listen to the preview here.

Make sure to come back here for further developments! Thoughts?

“DISCOTHEQUE” & “Banana no Namida”!

MEG’s first new songs of 2011, “DISCOTHEQUE” (originally by Nana Mizuki) and “Banana no Namida” (バナナの涙) (originally by Ushiroyubi Sasaregumi) are now available for purchase on iTunes France.

If you live in France or have an iTunes France account, please support MEG and buy the songs!

To those who’ve heard them, what are your thoughts? Happy? Disappointed? Post your opinion!

MEG is making a comeback!

Certainly no one could have anticipated this: MEG has come back to release music.

In an attempt to join together the worlds of the French and Japanese, iTunes France will be releasing exclusive cover songs by MEG, marking her first venture into music in 2011 and her debut in France. Over the next six months, MEG will be releasing two new covers each month, starting on June 20th with “DISCOTHEQUE” (originally by Nana Mizuki) and “バナナの涙” (originally by Ushiroyubi Sasaregumi). The arrangers for the songs have yet to be revealed. Could it be Nakata Yasutaka? Dave Liang? Or perhaps even a new producer? Only time will tell. More information can be found at this article.

MEG has written a detailed account of this surprising turn of events in her blog, which you can read here.

MEG also now has an official Facebook page, so be sure to “Like” it!

Stay tuned for future developments!

Thanks to Cait for the information.

MEG to perform at the 2011 JAPAN EXPO

MEG will, once again, be appearing/performing at this year’s JAPAN EXPO, one of France’s biggest annual and cultural events, on July 1st. Compared to last year’s 17 million, an astounding 19 million people are expected to visit this year over the course of four days. This steadily growing venue will allow MEG to reach a much broader, more international audience, and the event page describes MEG as being a icon of fashion and Harujuku culture. MEG writes in her blog, “I already wanted to go, but I like the atmosphere of a fun festival, so I’m happy. Enjoy!“.

MEG will be performing at the J.E. Live House area of the event. For more information, check out the official site.

Welcome!

I originally created this blog over a year ago, right before “MAVERICK” was released. Then I forgot about it after a while.

Seems I’m not exactly the ideal caretaker.

But that doesn’t matter, because I’ve dug this from the crypt, slapped a new coat of paint on it and now it’s geared up and ready to go like never before. Hopefully.

Even if MEG is on a hiatus, I’ll continue to improve the site. Any volunteers, comments, or suggestions would be helpful.
