Welcome to All About Fukuyama Masaharu, part lyrics blog, part fan site, 100% about Masha. It started out as a blog around April 2009 to repost all English lyrics, but after a while I got a bit ambitious and posting many other things I can gather from the net, some pictures, some articles, mostly news in English from the perspective of a fan although you can find some translated articles in here. I do not pretend to say I take credit for the text in here; frankly I just search, gather, summarise, reword and repost. I will always include the name of the fan who said whatever I posted to the best of my ability but as you can see, my sources are mostly from 2 main fan forums of Masha that is not in Japan. My problem is I can't read Japanese or Chinese, but my persistence sometimes does pay off when I just keep looking. You will also find some pictures in here, but all of the pictures you don't see in here are in Facebook, just look for All Abt Masha. I am quite active in that Facebook page, and it is also a place to find information! My main purpose for this blog is for myself; to gather all lyrics in English under one roof. But I am very sure foreign fans can also benefit from the contents in this blog, and without the many wonderful foreign Masha fans who translate, discuss and share whether privately or publicly, this blog will never be what it is today. I am still hoping to find more English lyrics somewhere, although from the looks of it, I will say things have slowed down a bit. Anyway, have a look. If you have any snippet about Masha to share with me, or pictures or lyrics, anything at all, please do not hesitate to do so. Do join in the discussion by using Post A Comment. Do consider sending me your submission of reviews. And for new Masha fans, if you like, do join my Contact List. Thanks for dropping by!
If you're curious and unable to identify which of the above is from which previous released album/compilation/single/photoshoot within the album/single/compilation, then you must check out the official website HERE and let it load and click on each image to know the details. Love the interactive fun! You can also scroll down further and click on each song to hear a sample clip! And there's Kokoro Colour sample MV clip too! Fun! However the one I really wanna hear is one of the instrumental song but unfortunately no preview!!
I think I will document each cover's background in this post later.
[UPDATES] The fans have been saying one of the picture is from a hair catalogue and one of the children picture has his house address in Nagasaki in it! Not that it is a secret. Apparently when you go to Nagasaki, hop onto a taxi and just say his name and they can take you to his childhood home. The mother used to invite visitors into the home to thank them and for tea but of course now that is impossible. Apparently you may have to join a long queue of taxis parked in front. For me I'd rather just walk right up, take a picture and be gone.
