The only thing better than a Kuwata Keisuke single is a Kuwata Keisuke triple A-side single. The beloved artist leads the march towards tomorrow with Ashita he no March, a short and sunny folk song that cheers on life. The song evokes both an air of nostalgia for the past - as it's sprinkled with whimsical sounds like woodblock, flugelhorn, and even a bicycle horn - and hope for the future, a new morn filled with children's laughter.
The hopeful march continues with Kuwata's solo version of the Amuse Entertainment disaster relief charity song Let's Try Again. Released in May, the Team Amuse version is an all-star team effort that weaves the chorus of Kuwata's new song into a rearranged medley of hits.
The third song on the single is the cheeky enka number Hadaka DE Ondo - Omatsuri da!! Naked -. Kuwata strikes again with his ero lyrics, and not even AKB is safe from his suggestive references! The matsuri-themed song inserts jazzy interludes into a traditional enka dance tune that asserts festival time is the best time to get it on. Hadaka DE OndoZ - Omatsuri da!! Naked is as life-affirming as the other two songs on the single, just in a different way.
Single : Asu e no March / Let's try again ~kuwata keisuke ver.~ / Hadaka DE Ondo ~Matsuri da!! Naked~ (明日へのマーチ / Let's try again ~kuwata keisuke ver.~ / ハダカDE音頭 ~祭りだ!! Naked~) Singer : Keisuke Kuwata Release : 17 August, 2011 Label : Victor Entertainment
Track List :
1. Ashita he no March (明日へのマーチ) 2. Let's try again - kuwata keisuke ver. 3. Hadaka DE Ondo - Omatsuri da!! Naked - (ハダカDE音頭 ~祭りだ!! Naked~)

Turning 30 is traumatic for a lot of women. I didn’t reallysweat it. I’ve always felt young at heart and, when I try, I can easily passfor a mid-to-late 20-something.
It was only this spring – a few months shy of my 33rdbirthday – that I started to feel old. One night as I was washing my face, Inoticed an albino hair in my bangs. I quickly plucked it to inspect it moreclosely. It was only half white, so I convinced myself that this hair was afreak of nature that somehow got half bleached.
A few weeks later, I found a half dozen more “bleached”hairs and had an all-out panic attack. I mean, seriously – those suckers weremultiplying like Gremlins after a midnight snack. It wasn’t just that I was comingto terms with getting older – but going gray is a huge deal. Once you go gray,coloring your hair isn’t just for fun. It becomes a PITA part of your routine,for the rest of your life – like shaving. Between my job, this blog, being a momand a wife, my to-do list is already never-ending. So the thought of having onemore thing to do nearly sent me over the edge.
All I can say is thank God for Clairol. At the height of mygray hair freak out, Clairol contacted me and asked if I would be interested inreviewing their new Nice ‘N Easy Color Blend Foam. Um, yes please!
So this weekend while I was stuck in the house (thanks to HurricaneIrene), I cemented my Foambassador status by washing the gray outta my hair.
Nice ‘N Easy Color Blend Foam was supereasy to apply, took hardly any time at all, and the results are fabulous.
Before
Before
First of all, it’s perfect for busy women and moms, likemyself. All you have to do is pour thehair color into a bottle of activator, shake it up, squeeze the bottle todispense the foam and apply all over your hair. Unlike traditional hair color,there’s no drippy mess because the foam stays exactly where you put it. This firstpart of the process takes about 5 minutes.
Once you pour the color into the bottle of Activator, it foams up.
After you put the pink nozzle on the bottle, you squeeze the foam into your hand like so.
Lettin' the color marinate.
Then you let the color process for25 minutes before rinsing out. Finally, you apply the ColorSeal ConditioningGloss and rinse again. And voila – shiny, dimensional color that also coversgrays for 8 weeks.
After
So shiny! Though it looks almost exactly like my natural dark brown color, it's much richer and warmer than usual.
I took this pic outside so you could appreciate how shiny and multidimensional the results are.
Clairol Nice ‘N Easy Color Blend Foam is available in 18shades and retails for $8.99-9.99 at drugstores and mass market retailers.
Note: While this was a sponsored post and Clairol compensated me for my time, all opinions are 100% my own.

I recommend the skull tattoos designs for anybody, whether it is your first or 20th tattoo.
This design, although it might seem generic with a, is extremely popular for a reason.
This reason is because it looks great! That old time look of the skull tattoo design is sure to turn some heads and get the interest for your ink you want.
But finding the best tattoo skull art. Printable tattoo design databases are things i believe to be the only way to obtain the best designs.
You can look on search engines and try to find pictures of tattoos, but your tattoo artist won’t be very happy.
The biggest reason why I like these databases a lot is because of the standard printouts they are able to provide you with.
You won’t need to bother about a poor design and therefore a poor looking tattoo.
