Utaite Spotlight: terry

terry

mylist | blog

terry is a prolific male Nico singer whose name we usually see in collabs and choruses. He is decently popular but since he covers recent releases, he most of the time gets overshadowed by more popular artists despite having wonderful covers. It is sad that I don't know much about him because he only posts about his releases in his blog and doesn't have a twitter ^^;.

Terry's voice is similar to Xiao's, only simpler and more straight to the point as opposed to Xiao's stylistic back-ups and adlibs. He does not have that much strength in his voice so he sounds a little weak in fast, rock-ish songs, but terry has good pitch control and sounds really nice in ballads. Next to Xiao, he is probably the one I consider having a voice quality nearest to KAITO's :).

I don't remember how I got into listening to terry's covers, but I do know I first mentioned him in this post. From then on, I followed his updates and got used to his mellow voice. I don't think I can compare him to clear now, though. LOL. The range + voice type is too different (forgive the inexperienced me back then). Terry has a really soothing voice without edges, like honey. I love his "Guilty Verse" so much as well as his "Yume Kake Uta". But then again, I like most of his covers. Sometimes, there are Vocaloid songs I don't like as much but I grew to like because of his cover (one example is World's End Umbrella ^^; ).

One Year Old!

HAPPY 1ST YEAR ANNIVERSARY!!!


Because a first year anniversary wouldn't be complete without sparkles :). A year ago, this community was just a link dump site for me when I was trying to drag my friends into the Vocaloid/utattemita fandom. As you may notice, even the name is a bit off: it's named after the "furo furo taimu" song in the Tourai/Panyo/5comasuberi video ^^;. Now ofurotaimu has 75 subscribers and more outside LJ/DW. Thank you so, so much!

To be honest, I think I have run out of possible posts since I've been posting nonstop the whole month for even without the anniversary things, July has been really eventful (midyear rankings, clear's and clewota's anniversary...). Maybe I can come up with a couple of posts later or tomorrow (after my JP class), I don't know ^^;. I have so many things I want to say, but the time to organize them is something I don't have.

So, this will be my anniversary post for now. It has been a long year of flailing and new discoveries and new acquaintances. Thank you so much for joining/watching/subscribing to the community by DW, OpenID, RSS feed, open stalking, etc. All those anon commenters, thanks for taking the time to leave your names so I'll remember each of you ^^;. I didn't realize this comm will have readers outside LJ/DW, so I'm really happy. I hope that each of my post have been helpful/entertaining.

I really appreciate all the comments everyone had posted to the community, as well as suggestions I hope I managed to answer. At first it felt really lonely talking to myself in this community, so I'm very glad for all the comments you guys give, whether they're corrections, constructive remarks, or just multi-liners composed of "AAAAAAHHH!!!" XD It's nice to know that there are a lot of people sharing the same passion as I do and I hope we'll all know more about each other and the fandom as a new year for this comm starts.

I TL;DR WHEN I'M HAPPY I'M SO SORRY D: Anyway, here's to another year of flailing, more rankings (hurhur) and more discoveries. 本当にありがとうございます! これからもよろしくおねがいします!!
