hide - Pink Spider (1998 5.1 Live)

[coloriques]

he didn't die a day after this recording.. he died HOURS after this. and this was his final present for us...

[xguiterxBASARA7]

やっぱhide最高やな！

生きててほしかった…

[shadowchao2]

its tells the story of a pink spider who can't fly , but for me hide was since the beginning a flying bird that can't be touched by anything , the genius ,the happiness and the freedom (sorry for my english)

[Leahkanzaki]

sexy

[kaitaku313]

生きていると、隣の芝が青く見えることがある。 あの人、いいな。うらやましいな、とか。 でも、そのひとが持つ才能や環境が はたから見ているようないいもんじゃないことって よくあることだと思う。 この曲聴くと、なんで自分だけ出来ないんだ、 と思っていても、できる人がらスキルを奪ったからって、 どうにもならないし、自分のペースで生きていくのが 本当はいいんだって教えてくれてる気がする。 出会えてよかった曲。 

[truesunn]

hide-sama, it's hard to believe you died less than 24 hours after this,,, But, it is easy to fool strangers into thinking we are all good and happy, Only you and God know what went down that night, but know without doubt aishiteru, You are so beautiful and talented, I wish I could have helped you somehow,,,,

[taiyakiuser]

I cannot believe he died the next day

[maluse227]

ill miss him but we still have his spirit in all of us

[Rainbou1987]

[cloudneoqt]

hAPPY BIRTHDAY HIDE!!!!!

[SamJonesCSSM]

[OkamiChan92]

Hell no....But I know someone who reminds me of Ruki and that is Byou (the vocalist from ScReW)...

[hisui00nekokifujin]

they just have the same last name.

[Athaleth]

@velveteen01 not at all. where do you see Ruki's severe elegance in this crazy and fanciful performance?

[porlipop]

[StreifchensMisa]

yeah,i hate ppl saying he did suicide.

I'm pretty sure it was a accident.hide isn't kind of type that would o somenthing like this.

And yeah.There is just one Pink Spider ♥

OUR Pink Spider .

[TheP1x3l]

But for some reason suddenly there is this American band called The Pink Spiders and they don't even credit hide.

TT^TT

[TheP1x3l]

No they don't credit.

This isn't spam. This is a reply to what I wrote!!!!

[DeGKyofangirl]

Does this band even know hide exists? Cuz I first thought of hide when I found out about them too.

[EinEngel13]

Yeah, a friend of mine said : 'hey, these are the pink spiders, dont u know them? and I was like : OMG hide sama! and she was like : O_o who's that? I mean a band, silly. SOOW unfair. I mean, that she knows that stupid band but not even the man that has made the whole idea.

[tedfreak95]

so did i O.o

[beauty09876]

『林佳樹容疑者（Yoshiki）暴行容疑で逮捕!!』

[OkamiChan92]

24 hours to live :(

his pink hair was so amazing.

its just sad that he's gone now.

RIP hide

you will live on forever in our hearts

[porcelaindollxx]

Is it just me or does he look really angry in this vid? Like his movements are all exaggerated or something, as if some sort of craziness was propelling him or something. There is also a hint of mania in his eyes. Sorry, dont' hate me, I'm just stating what I think I observed.  Comments?

[meevesay]

he died 29 days before my birthday.....

[NarikoKun]

He died on my birthday.

[DeGKyofangirl]

That sux. I'm sorry.

[NarikoKun]

Yeah.. but, thanks.. ^^

[EinEngel13]

thats kinda special.

[EscapeTheFateEthan]

omg you suck

[Bizz0nitch]

u do no i said that sux cause he died on ur birthday

[EscapeTheFateEthan]

My birthday is June 13... He did not die on my birthday ..

If he did, I'd be like..shamed

but Sorry I misunderstood then

[kanonboulove]

He died in May. If i remember right it was the secod of May.

R.I.P. Hideto Matsumoto! <3

[hidemirano]

泣いた。

[adropofcolor]

FUCK YOU. No, YOSHIKI did not kill hide. He was in LA, hide was in Tokyo when he died. fucking hell how misinformed could someone be?

[tricky8888]

Lol juz ignore him.. his a retard hahaha...

[DarkFalken]

Ohhh, the pinkness.....

[ckayla78]

its sad cause no one knows that he's going to be dead the next day

[KungFu350]

omg omg T___T one day before..... Miss him, He is the pink spider in our hearts!

[bonbon800ps]

不慮の事故だったんだよ。

hideさんが自ら命を絶つわけないじゃないか！

一番驚いているのはhideさん自身なんだ。

だからみんな、もうマスコミに洗脳されんのやめようよ。

[kawasakirockcity]

そうだ！

[XJAPANYOSHIKILOVE]

hideは死んでなんかいない！！！

「あの空」に遊びに行っているんだよね・・・

早く帰ってきてよ、逢いたい。

[takoyaki717]

俺たちもあの空に遊びにいけばきっと会えるよ

[vayz]

great hide. miss him so much specially i was in taipei but X Japan's concert was cancelled. looking forward to see him

with them even if on video only or hologram.

[noisyshow]

たぶん最後のけじめ的な意味でライブやったんだろうなぁ

[Bobbical]

Its hard to think hat just a couple of days later ..

his funeral. This is a great song!

His body has gone, but his music still remains!

[nekuromansu]

この次の日に死んだなんて考えられない・・・

でもきっと、天国で一緒に焼いてもらった、ギター弾いて元気に過­ごしてるよね！！

[takami87]

かっこいい！

[norie2439]

１０年も前にこんなカッコいい音を

やってたなんて。

ｈｉｄｅちゃん、あなたが今生きていたら。

本当に残念です。

もう一度あいたいよ。。。

[miku517]

一日前こんな元気なのに。

でもきっと何か感じてたのかな

[kyosanfan]

Hide... Ill Try not to cry for him because thats not what he would want. but i cant help a few tears for you now and then.. R.I.P You will always be in my heart hide x

[kabe0531]

逢いたい。

[bonbon800ps]

hideさんは永遠だ。

いつまでも僕たちの心の中で生き続けるんだ。

[moruhine382]

he's the one to be reborn

[kuridaisukiyo]

ずっと好きだよ、ｈｉｄｅちゃん。

[sunny729]

GOD 5 hours later he was dead -.-

[FlllyCover]

yeah D:

[minao557]

あなたが いなくて 寂しい気持ちになりました。

[minao557]

*cries*

.....hide....you will always be in our hearts...for ever.......

.....although you're the best and always be in our hearts, anyway we still miss you.....

[edyorkk]

i cant believe it was just one day before..... why..

[tricky8888]

Yes.. yoshiki give hide a nick name call pink spider..

[GASOLINEMEN]

正確にはライブではなくカラオケ。

[ForbiddenTear]

I don't find him angry...it's more as if, unlike in other videos, he's really "living" this song, expressing it with his whole body. It was a bit unusual compared to his other performances, but not that different.

Still...I can't believe it was only one day before... :(((((

Such a wonderful man he was... Miss you, hide-sama <3

[RevengeBabyYeah]

Miss you hide!

[annabele08]

he does seem angry

or not angry but...some other emotion. i cant really place it. God he was so talented though

[jumpingcats]

i read somewhere that pink spider was what Yoshiki called him sometimes. may be it reminded him of x japan days but i guess we'll never knew

[TheP1x3l]

This video is so omienous(sp?).

[rossothecrimson7]

I was always weird about this video because something seemed a little off with him. Like he was angry. He never had this angry intensity while performing live before.

Beyond that barely visible sky

Birds heading south

"Let's fly once again, Cutting down these threads

This time with one's own jet

When that cloud passes"

Pink Spider! The sky is calling

Pink Spider!Pink Spider!

.....A pink spider flows across the sky.

"Pink" Spider? Why Pink? Hideto had pink hair? That's what was weird.

[Sushi2noodle]

I think its weird too in 1:43,and in the end around 3:oo he even starts to shake his mic like crazy like he's so angry. Another thing that scares me is the fact this was taken hours before he died. Hes so angry in this video not like in the rest I mean thats what made hide so amazing but im sad to think that he would actually want to die. He was such an influence and talented person and his dedication to Xjapan i think thats what got him hard. i guess will never know but his music is forever RIP

[Sayurichan233]

he didn't want to die. his death wasn't intentionally. it was accidental. and we all miss him dearly and we all wish he was alive. because he didn't deserve to die like that. besides he never left us. he is still with us everyday. his body may be gone but his spirit and his music will live forever as long as we remember him. T_T we all love hide. he wasn't just talented. HE WAS AMAZING. unique. and a beautiful person. *cries* he will live in our hearts forever

[hrk32]

Get the wings of a butterfly, and come this way.

Over beyond, everything's the way you've dreamed.

Pink Spider, The sky is calling for you

[HiyoNiyane]

I'm r little depressed now...In this he didn't know what will happen.But...He'll be live forever!This and other his songs will never die!!!

[YellerRaven]

I miss him so much, hide was awesome and i just know that if he was alive his music would have been even better if possible

[ri46music]

hide love!!

pink spider love!

[GeemoniKzell26]

yeah, i noticed...

it feels so strange to see this live video for some reason =/

but i love it. =)

but it just feels kind of awkward watching it coz it was taken hours before he passed away.

let's just forget about his death.

his music lives forever =)

[mmike3000]

apparently,This was hours before he died. :(

[GeemoniKzell26]

oh wait! this was taken before the day he died?! o____O

[mmike3000]

Unfortunatly, Yes it was.

[junejoys]

Dude 98/5/1? Are you sure? Can not be...

[mmike3000]

yup it is.......The dates in Japan go year/month/day.

[GeemoniKzell26]

it wasnt a suicide, they said.

it was an accident.

like, it is a technique for guitarists to deal with the pain in their necks when they get used to their guitar straps. something like that.

he was drunk that time, and he did it, and maybe he fell asleep and couldnt breathe in the end.

[Jade808]

This video makes me happy and sad at the same time.

hide's awesome I love his actions from 1:50-2:10. PRICELESS ;)

[hidexgod]

This is the next reason why I don't believe he did commit suicide. He was so energic, full of energy here! So happy...with wonderful future...I don't believe...it was tragical accident..

We love you forever, hide-sama...

[sakura001V2]

poor hidew the day b4 he died Rest in peace

[lht002004]

i hate the next day

[lordemisama]

THIS IS TIGHT!!!!

[Wilixer]

Wow, his final hours on earth...

Are we sure this wasn't January? I just can't believe it..

But it was an awesome performance hide-sama ^_^

[jinqin321]

No,it wasn't january. The order of the date is year/month/day. It's different from some western country.

[nsx1213]

この1日後・・hideさんは天に召されました。

ご冥福をお祈りいたします。

[WarWorm]

hideto matsumoto...he openly listened to his own heart,even when the reality wasn't that a heart could draw.He shaped his life enphatizing those differences,expanding his love to every aspect of life.Now his heart is a shining star on the horizon,remembering us that as he dedicated his own life to share his love with us,we now have to crown him by following what he did. What our heart tells us is not a drop in an ocean,but is the need for a better reality on which hide shaped his own life.

[slashlin1006]

the day before he went to heaven?

[annwww]

yes..

he died on 2 may,1998

[demonslover]

I start crying when ever I see this. He was such a great person. R.I.P. our pink spider.

[noya0089]

hide is only sleeping.

HUSH please (Q_Q)

[RetsuekiHana]

hide-sama is love.

COMPLETE LOVE.

that's all..

This is my favorite song by hide-sama.

[smile80523]

hide 最高!!

[kakuhide]

That's right..there's no using speculating about such sad thing.

He's right here,cuz there's a museum deep inside each heart

[legolahz]

hide has been gone away from us..... he is all along rite beside us....he loves us as much as we love him..... he will be hapi for the rest for the memebers of x-japan if they r to reform..... =)

[invixus]

If he was depressed or not is his business, our job is to appreciate what he did in life. So, even though we can be sad that he died, it's no use speculating, because he could never tell you, and only he could give you the real answer.

Hide, you rule! VK was practically based on your stuff. :3 This song is awesome. :3 The fact that this was taped the day before makes me kind of sad though. T_T

[tricky8888]

Hide hide hide hide hide hide!

T T

WE LOVE U!

The true Pink Spider!!!!

[agrabj]

I really love Hide, but I think you're right, he was depressed, and he was alone may the second...

[marionette91]

i love hide so much..

[smile80523]

hide is best

[drakkeb]

Actually I believe that it was assissted suicide due to alcohol and if the date on this performance is right, this happend the day before he died. Wow.... RIP hide-san.

[ZeBlackCat]

Having read his lyrics, it's rather symbolic and depressing. Besides, alcohol is overatted, it might help you to the step of actually doing it... but those ideas were already inside him before drinking, and most likely before he wrote this song too.

[AmericanJRocker]

Damn you asshole we're mourning here don't you see that!!! I know you'll never see this and will probably never fucking respond but jesus christ GO AWAY!!! We're all in tears here about an artist who died WAY before his time. Stupid spammers.

[Megadeth72]

this song is awesome. just like all his stuff on x japan.
