James Travis "Jim" Reeves (August 20, 1923 -- July 31, 1964) was an American country and pop singer.Jim Reeves was born in Galloway, Texas, a small rural community near Carthage. He became known as a crooner because of his warm, velvety voice. His songs were remarkable for their simple elegance highlighted by his rich light baritone voice. Songs such as "He'll Have to Go," "Adios Amigo (song)," "Welcome To My World," and "Am I Losing You" demonstrated this approach. Jim Reeves' Christmas songs have been perennial favorites, including songs such as "Silver Bells," "Blue Christmas," and "An Old Chistmas Card".For many years, Reeves mixed college life with baseball and music. Influenced by such Western swing artists as Jimmie Rodgers and Moon Mullican as well as popular crooners Bing Crosby, Eddy Arnold and Frank Sinatra, it was not long before he got a foothold into the music industry. For a time, he was a member of Moon Mullican's band and also worked as a DJ and announcer with local radio stations. He made some early, Moon Mullican-style recordings like "Each Beat of my Heart" and "My Heart's Like a Welcome Mat" in the late 1940s/early 1950s.After an injury cut short his minor-league baseball career with the St. Louis Cardinals farm system, his musical break came while working as announcer on KWKH Radio in Shreveport, Louisiana. Singer Sleepy LaBeef could not make it on time for a performance on the Louisiana Hayride, according to former Hayride emcee Frank Page, and Reeves was asked to fill in. (Other accounts—including Reeves himself, in an interview later released on the RCA album Yours Sincerely—name Hank Williams as the absentee.) Reeves' singing career was launched.His first country hits included "I Love You" (a duet with Ginny Wright), "Mexican Joe", "Bimbo" and other songs on both Fabor Records and Abbott Records. Eventually, Reeves began to tire of the novelty bracket he had been forced into, and left for RCA Victor.Indeed, by 1955 it was becoming apparent that RCA was very willing to sign Jim, and offered him a 10-year recording contract. Reeves signed, and the Abbot label had released a singer who was due to become one of country music's biggest and brightest stars. (Incidentally. the man who clinched the deal for RCA, Stephen H. Sholes, produced some of Jim's first recordings at RCA, and later in 1955 he completed a memorable "double" when he signed a young Elvis Presley for the company.

Kyo, Kaoru, Die and Shinya (all former band mates) along with newly recruited bassist Toshiya regrouped as a new band in 1997 and released a first EP, Missa. The name "Dir en grey" was chosen because it "sounded right," and is comprised of words from several languages, so that people would not be able to attach a specific meaning to it other than the band's name itself. Some consider Dir en Grey to be founder of the Visual Jrock that we love today, we're sure of one thing is that their music influenced so many bands and artists.This song is [KR]Cube from their second studio album "Macabre" Enjoy ;)Lyrics : onisan kochira te no naru hou eGion de asonda osanai hi womainichi maiban komoriuta tomikazuki se ni yurayuranihon ningyou no youna kimi wahyoujou hitotsu kaenai mama desotto me wo tojisoine wo shitenennenokororiyo...ima wa naki haha wo omoukono ko ni kasanete wakyou mo mata koto no ne wo kanadeyou"Mother and you and my new relation"Without thinking I put my hand on your neck.You say nothing and you do nothing.I'm gonna sing the last lullaby for you while you smile at me.I wonder why I fell in love with you.Impossible love.te no hira wo kasaneteruchiisana kimi no tetsuriawanu yumenakigara to aikururi, furari, fuwari, kurarikururi, furari, fuwari, kurakurarikururi, furari, fuwari, kurarikururi, furari, sawagu
