Libera At Jersey

Libera has arrived at Jersey safely a few days ago just before the Olympics started, as Kavana and some of the boys tweeted. Even our dearest friend, Patrick (Fan de Lok) has also arrived in Jersey yesterday and he spotted some of the boys wearing angelic white robes, passing out fliers for the concerts. So far, he spotted Josh, Daniel, Tiarnan, Jakob, Luke, Kavana, Dylan, Nano Ben, Matthew J, Matthew M and Cassius. JB was also there but was in his regular clothes. I guess that means he's not singing with Libera anymore. Patrick said he may not have spotted all the boys attending the concerts. My guess is that we'll find out more from him and the fans who were going. The unusual thing happened is that Patrick did not spot some of the chaperones like Eleanor, Barbara or Andy Winter. Oh well, maybe they were with the other boys. This morning, Libera perform in a church service at St Thomas' Church. The last song was a new song to me called "Salva Regina". According to Patrick, the choir was behind the altar so he couldn't really see everyone. Ralph, Barney and Stefan wasn't there. Weird. Maybe he couldn't see them too. Good news. Ciaran was there!! Woo hoo!! Hope he gets more solos and sing "Dies Irae" again. Well, that's all what happen at Jersey. Merci, Patrick, for the updates. Can't wait to find out more at the concert and the newbies :DD. Will there be M&G's too? So exciting!!!

Sanctus on Japanese TV

Remember my previous review about Libera being on TV Asahi? Well, without further ado, here is the video of Libera appearance posted by a Japanese fan named sunflower3923. Arigato :D. We also appreciate the fans who tried to post this show to YouTube but because it can get deleted due to copyrights. Thanks, guys, for trying :). You did your best. 
Libera performed Sanctus in the show. In the video we can also see the boys getting ready with their robes. I didn't know their robes could wear over their blue polo shirts :D. Yeah, you could say this is my first time seeing them wearing their robes over. I don't know about the rest of you. Maybe it could be your first time too. 
Anyways, back to the subject. After they performed, they hang around chatting, reading books and playing with each other inside the church. And of course, a short interview of Kavana with Issac fooling around behind him ;))). Love that part. 
Oh! Before I forget, here are the list of boys who were in the video. There are 14 in total:-


Michael U-R, Issac, Dylan, Jude, Matthew M, Henry, Luke, Carlos, Kavana, Matthew R-A, Eoghan, Cassius, Jakub and Michael M


Boys getting ready:-

Here is Kavana handing the robe over to Dylan. He's becoming a big brother to the young ones :D. Hee hee. 

Is Jakub reading a manga (Japanese comic)?

"The Amber Spyglass". Nice book you got there, Carlos :).

Isn't that Josh? What a surprising thing that he's their conductor besides RP. I bet all the Josh fans are gonna love this, especially Inna ;). But to be honest, I'm glad the older boys are helping RP to conduct the boys singing. Who knows maybe they'll conduct Libera during concerts ;).

"Sanctus":-

The boys hanging around after singing:-

Aww! Little Michael zipping up Issac's black jacket. Kawaii!!

Love the little Union Jack flag Matthew M is holding.

A short interview with Kavana:-

Lol. Finally caught Issac. Good job, Kav ;).

Issac, you're becoming a cheeky little fellow, aren't ya? But you're still cute ^_^ <333

Borrowing Michael U-R's younger brother's words: "And this is what you deserved!" Lol! Good work, Eoghan. They really behave like any other ordinary little boys when not on stage or not performing. 

Libera on TV BS Asahi

Libera will be appearing on a Japanese TV called "TV BS Asahi" on Sunday, 15th July 2012. The show will be something like a journey around London. This can be a travel guide for you if you're planning a holiday or going to do your studies in London. You're gonna need it to get around ;). Of course, Libera will appear along the way. He he. I can see 14 boys who will be singing. And yes, they have hit #1 in the Japanese charts, in case you've forgotten. You can have a look at the site here.

Libera Summer Tour

Libera has finally made their announcement in their site:-


We are delighted to announce that we will be performing in the Channel Islands over the summer, with concerts on 1st and 2nd August on Jersey and 7th and 8th August on Guernsey.  More details coming shortly.


I knew they'll held concerts around the Europe continent because they wouldn't want to  missed the Olympics back in the UK. I do feel sorry for the fans who were expecting USA concerts for this summer. But don't give up hope, guys. There's always a next time. 

Japan Commemorative Album Hits #1

I know that I didn't talk much about the Japan Commemorative album by Libera so I might as well talk about it now. Yesterday, Patrick tweeted that the album hit #1 on the Billboard Japan charts! Woo hoo!! Congratulations, Libera!! Japanese fans must have loved it so much that it got to the top. Great job. Keep it up. 
Another great news (which is out of the topic) is that Kavana tweeted that he just finished filming for a show in Japan. Not sure what is it and neither does he know but we'll find out soon enough, won't we? :)

Glyndebourne's The Cunning Little Vixen

Hey there, guys. Sorry for late posting. For those who don't know this, Stefan and Orlando (former member of Libera) participate in an opera called "The Cunning Little Vixen" by Janacek at the Glyndebourne Festival Opera 2012. Thank you to Lauren for the info. The performance was done in June 10 and the filming was done by the UK Guardian. You could watch it here until June 22. Thank you, Martin for the link. There are two parts of the video, so it'll be quite long. 
Here's a tip for you ;). If you wanna know when Orlando and Stefan appears, below are the timing of the video. 


Orlando: 10:55
Stefan: 20:42


Enjoy the show!

My Libera Album From Japan

I've been so hyped over the concert in Singapore that I totally forgot to share a post of my new CD with you guys. If you remember from my review that I purchase the Angel Voices 2012 CD from Yuki. Well, here are my photos of the CD I've just took tonight. And of course, the posters too that are hung in my room. Ignore the blue tag. Hehe! My mom doesn't have time to put it as a frame ever since the moving in these past few weeks. Hope you enjoy :).


CD:-

Love the picture but I wish it wouldn't be in the "donut hole". I have to agree with Lauren on what she said about it ;).

Posters:-

You could see a tiny bit of the poster from my deluxe edition CD ;).

The Olympic Experience Album

I'm pretty sure all of you are excited for the London Olympics 2012 in July (just two months away). Anyone of you guys going? Of course, as Kavana said in the EMI Japan interview video, Libera will be doing a couple of concerts during that time. So I guess it'll be an Europe concert tour this summer. I wonder if Libera will perform at the Olympics :). 
Anyways, what I wanna talk about is that Libera will be featuring on an album called "The Olympic Experience". Thanks to Kazuyo for the info on Twitter. Three songs of theirs will be featured in the album which is 'Sacris Solemnis', 'Angelis' and 'Jubilate'. You can go to this site below to find out more. Thank you to Yuni for the link.

Congrats to Inna (2)

As you all know for the past two weeks, we've been crazy over the Loose Moose competition for new credits of Episode 3. Guess who won? :)

INNA (DEARMADINE)!!!

Our heartiest congratulations to you, Inna, for your wonderful animation and to all who participate, including myself. You deserved it. The boys must have really like your animation that they touch it up a bit to make it look nicer. Well done again. Now you could watch her creation come to live from this video below.

Loose Moose Episode 2 Outtakes

I've been busy doing my animation for the Loose Moose competition and of course studying for exams that I forgot to do a review about the outtakes. But at least I can manage to balance my time on work and blogging but no guarantee updates on Loose Moose or Libera news would be on the spot sometimes, if you know what I mean. To be honest, this outtakes is longer than Episode 1. But they never fail to make us laugh with their hilarious acting. Good job, mooslings.

Here's JB looking embarrassed after spilling water onto the ground during filming. He he! You're so right. It's very dangerous after spilling something to the ground. Who's the naughty little chum chum now? :) JK

JB trying to said his lines......

......Liam and Alex end up laughing at the back. 

Here's JB trying to get his razor on.....

......and slipping while walking down the street. I hope you didn't get a foot cramp, JB. Must be cold and slippery in London back then.

And now, it's time for mooses' version of "Lights, camera, action!" Brought to you by the Loose Moose quintets. Enjoy! "Re-cording! Gudluck!" ;)

Guess who started all this? ;)

This is where Josh says, "Shut up!" I wonder how they said it in British accent. 

Love this part where Liam got stuck in the bin. He reminds me of Winnie the Pooh getting stuck in Rabbit's front door. LOL!

Alex to the rescue.

"Okay, now no one move the bin."

"Phones":-

Having phones with you is good but not during filming. Here we can see JB trying to act out his part of Andrew-Dora when suddenly Sam's phone rang. It happens not once but twice. Yeah, you could see JB's reaction on the third pic. Ha ha! JB, if I were you, I would be the same. So here's a lesson for you guys. If you bring your phones along for filming, be sure to off it or silent it. You don't wanna end up being embarrassed like Sam, do you?

"Cars" (again):-

No matter how interrupting cars are, you can't stop them from driving. People have to go somewhere somehow. 

"Dogs":-

Yep, dogs barking during filming. You could get pretty annoyed if dogs barked a lot in your neighbourhood. There are lots of dogs outside my old house and could hear them barking a lot at night but not as loud as this one. Josh, you wanna know what's going on? The barking is what's going on. That's all I can answer ^_^. 

OMG! Did Liam gave gin to the dog? So bad! That owner of the dog would have kill you if she spotted you giving weed and gin to her dog. LOL! 

Aww. The black dog is in love with JB. 

All going back to Mrs Smith and Dr Jones :)).

JB's wig fell off while trying to get up. Funny moment :).

Liam looking kind of embarrassed after seeing two girls who saw him in his Shiny Sean costume. They may be popular around the world but back home they're just ordinary teenage boys. I wonder if the boys showed LMS to their friends in school.

LOL! Alex is so far away from JB!!

Now we know who's behind that mask.

Alex trying to look shocked....

.....but ends up laughing at Josh.

"Rudies":-

"Tree Trouble":-

We saw this scene about them being on this tree and falling down in the trailer but it's not shown in the real video. Strange. Maybe they want to use it for outtakes.
