The O2
Coordinates: 51°30′10.14″N 0°0′11.22″E / 51.5028167°N 0.0031167°E
The O2, visually typeset in branding as The O2 arena, is a large entertainment district on the Greenwich peninsula in South East London, England, including an indoor arena, a music club, a Cineworld cinema, an exhibition space, piazzas, bars and restaurants. It was built largely within the former Millennium Dome, a large dome-shaped building built to house an exhibition celebrating the turn of the third millennium; as such, The Dome remains a name in common usage for the venue.
It is often referred by various names: the O2 Dome; the O2 Centre, which properly refers to an unrelated shopping centre on Finchley Road; or The O2 Arena, which properly refers to a smaller indoor arena within The O2. Naming rights to the district were purchased by the mobile telephone provider O2 from its developers, Anschutz Entertainment Group (AEG), during the development of the district. AEG owns the long-term lease on the O2 Arena and surrounding leisure space.
The Indigo
The Indigo is a Japanese band originally composed of Miki Taoka (田岡 美樹 Taoka Miki) on vocals, Yuichi Ichikawa (市川 裕一 Ichikawa Yūichi) on composition and arrangement, and Kenichi Takagi (高木 権一 Takagi Kenichi) on bass. They were first formed in 1998 and released their debut Maxi single Blue on May 24, 2000. This was followed by their 2nd Maxi Single Kikasete (きかせて) on August 30, 2000, and their first full album Blue on September 27, 2000. Takagi left the band prior to the release of their third album The Indigo have been a duo ever since. They are signed under Geneon Entertainment.
The Indigo's songs range from pop rock to slow ballads. Their discography shows a gradual shift from an alternative-pop rock hybrid towards a preference for ballads. Their style is also shown in their covers of various rock classics in their cover albums My Fair Melodies and My Fair Melodies 2. They have also performed several songs for both the opening and ending themes for anime TV series. This includes Namo Shirenu Hana (名も知れぬ花) for Ai Yori Aoshi, Under the Blue Sky for Someday's Dreamers, I Do! for Ai Yori Aoshi Enishi, and more recently, Fantasista Girl (ファンタジスタ★ガール) for Animal Yokocho. They continue to release albums at a prodigious rate, averaging one per year, and toured Korea in late 2004-early 2005. They also perform regularly in live sessions at various clubs and events. In 2007, with the release of their Best of The Indigo 2000-2006 as a chance to do so, The Indigo will (temporarily) focus on their solo projects. Taoka will be co-hosting the radio program Discover New Zealand on Kiss-FM Kobe.

The 'Notic
by: RootsThis beautiful blend, I knew her through a mutual friend
She was a work of art, a part of my heart from back then
A brown skin singer, with a knack for actin, Alana's whole attraction
Just fractionally based on surface, I got into her mental on purpose
And with alertness, as I flirt with her emotion
Walls we built up out of nervousness was broken
I reminisce on how this Black Thought had her open
Wit da energy that got the whole summertime smokin very hypnotized
When it was time we spent time
It's no way to rewind or prevent
time from slipping away like day, into the dark
and the way that things fall apart, will make some start
to feel more, weak or insecure
But for whatever reason our relationship remain mature
Even when she caught feelings cuz I stay on tour
As I reflect on before, and recap the situation
I guess from experience, comes education
We set on a path to opposite destinations
It's best to chalk it up and add it to the elevation
Then eventually flow on to lost communication
I called but lost all information
And with time forgot it, it's not like I'm all in tears about it
But the fact still remains that I miss the Hypnotic
[Chorus: x2]
You're a shinin' star
No matter where you are
For the world to see
What you truly be
She was the hypnotic, and potent as a narcotic
the bizarre logic of it all, is why the clock tick
pages of the calendar flip, we can't stop it
time will either tell the tale, or turn a love toxic
now was she real, or an illusion of this optical
confusion with the accent of ancient Egypt
or could it be that she's the one I was supposed to be with
and together walked this twisted, staircase is somethin realistic
damn, her lips having me addicted to her presence
front page material on essence, a queen, imperial before her
adolescence
and as she grew into a woman she became refine
I never knew another like her in my lifetime
so now I travel through a tunnel of space, without a place
on the face of this earth, with this pain gettin worse
drivin me insane, or release I'm touchin the brink, of sanity
to think of how I can link, or contact her
I was a fool before, but more wise after the fact
I'm analyzin how I'm wantin her back
and wonderin exactly where she could be on the map
I'm just sittin here spinning the world on one finger
reoccuring thoughts of this brown skin singer
yo, the psychotic, the hypnotic, yo check it out
the most melodic hypnotic, yeah
[Chorus x4]
You're my shinin star
No matter where you are
Dont know what to say
