[DarkestDiary]

Her voice makes me want to cut myself.

I just finished the book. I stopped before the part that revealed the piano players 14 year secret, and had to have a smoke to prepare myself. This Murakami is a master at sucking you in to overlapping questions and mysteries. I'm addicted to his books. Stopping

nicotine-no problem. His books? I'll need some kind of patch.

And it came to me then. That we were wonderful traveling companions but in the end no more than lonely lumps of metal in their own separate orbits. From far off they look like beautiful shooting stars.When the orbits of these two satellites of ours happened to cross paths, we could be together. Maybe even open our hearts to each other. But that was only for the briefest instant.The next instant we'd be in absolute solitude.Until we burned up and became nothing.

if someone needed to do a monologue from a contempary piece, would this be ok?

[LauraElisha15]

what does this mean?

[slightlystrangegirl]

it's a good quotation, definitely - but her voice is so ridiculous, she needs some vocal training definitely! i know in this scene she sounds close to tears, but her voice throughout the series was like this - it just sounded stupid.

[EnvyAbomination]

@slightlystrangegirl Hehe, I kinda agree

[nellybell2912]

gotta get the book!

[zuziku69]

[TheLustOfALibertine]

petition running to get it back on again.

type in 'nearly famous cancelled' into google and find the page if you want a 2nd series?

[xSimpleRose]

how longs this petition been going for?

[postretta]

I hated it. Murakamis books should be kept a private thing to yourself. I think its wrongly portrayed, I read the book 5 years ago.

[kennyboy516]

Hey people i manage to find nearly famous episode 2 and i have uploaded it =D. if you do decide to watch the episode please click on the link on the more info option and sign the petition. I will do my best to find and upload the other episodes

[dandredger]

hey, just wanted to encourage you to check out my adaptation of murakami's 'on seeing the 100% perfect girl." it's on my youtube page. :) let me know your thoughts.

I absolutely adored the book, and it was a brilliant choice for Kate's monologue. The passage she read perfectly described what was happening on the show, and summed up my feelings on the characters. The writers did an amazing job by picking Sputnik Sweetheart, and the actress did an amazing job portraying the emotion of the piece.

[Teezer44]

Wow..im just absolutely blown away. The simplicity in her acting and focus on the actual monologue, just pours out the emotion to the audience. Sometimes these actors overdo things and aren't very good, You see LESS is MORE..Anna Brewster is gonna be huge. The next Kiera Knightley??...p.s I am soooo gonna purchase Sputnik Sweetheart now!

Wow...what an incredible performance. You see, less is more, the simplicity in her acting, just made the emotion of the monolgue connect with the audience. Some actors really over do the acting, and arent very good. But Anna Brewster is destined to become a star. p.s I SOOOOOOOO WANNA READ DIS BOOK NOW!

[godsofdeathloveapple]

That's really deep. I've read all Murakami's novels and this is brilliant. She surprised me too.

[flexurmind]
