Berryz Kobo - Golden Chinatown


the beginning was a bit too dark

when I first heard it without subs, I thought they were just saying 'China' but noow I see its a pun. nicely done Tsunku, nicely done.

I love everyone's hairstyles, except Momo, you were doing so well!
and wow Saki really has changed so much! I remember when she oonly had short hair. Glad she's finally grew it out

Overall, it's ok, the mv isn't really great, it didn't make me like the song more actually, but I liked the song, dance and costumes. I probably will buy this, when it comes out. 
I prefer this to their previous single. 
7.5/10

Berryz & C-ute - Single Previews

Berryz
this is Berryz other double A Side
Sayonara Usotsuki no Watashi
I prefer Golden Chinatown still
it's ok...maybe I'll like it better after the mv comes out. there's no climax, which they normally have after the second chorus.
I don't understand why tsunku loves giving Risako the high notes (like her Nee at the start), she has a LOW voice...
Out June 19th

C-ute
Adam to Eve no Dilemma
from just the title alone I was really interested
this isn't a HD version
but I'm already taking a liking
can't wait for it to actually come out! suuch a cool tune
Out July 10th

Usa's Blog

ok I know this isn't H!P related, but it's sorta jpop? (not really sure if its kpop or jpop)
I'm actually a big kpop fan (was more before) and especially since H!P went pretty quiet for awhile and many of the older gens leaving, I ventured into kpop.

I had wanted to post about kpop before but wanted to make this strictly H!P
but you know what, lets mix it up a bit!
Risu might think it's strange (but tbh I dont think she'll ever find out, she's gone awol)

but I've had this stuck in my head now and wanted to share it
oh my H!P link is, this is who Kumai looks up to! (I can totally see her in this mv)

jaan
Shoujo Jidai - Love & Girls

So catchy I love it
plus how many men in drag can you spot? lol
SNSD is one of my fave groups

this is just a one off thing
maybe one day I'll make a blog that'll include all my favourite music (american, korean, japanese whatever) I dunno

Berryz Kobo - Golden Chinatown


So Berryz next single is a double A side
one of them being Golden Chinatown
when I first heard the name, I didn't have high expectations, I dunno the name didn't appeal to me. but after hearing a radio rip, I'm quite excited for it.

Now there's a clear version from when they performed it at a concert
Starts at 2:00
Love Miyabi's kirameku~~
line distribution is also good

also I should add after seeing their costumes for it, it made me more interested.
they show some on their blogs

I only watched that song, so maybe their other A side is in that video too

UPDATE PIC
what is Risako's hair colour..?
Kumai's working it!

C-ute - Kanashiku Heaven

Separate Versions!

Airi

Chisato

Love this song.
it's really interesting to hear the separate versions
normally one would sing harmony and the other melody right? but it sounded like they were alternating to me. must be confusing to sing.

Chisa's vocals really shine in this song

SayuMiki - Ichihachi Talk Show ENG


Hamadaaa!

love miki! and I can totally imagine her telling Sayumi to shut up
and I love the reactions from everyone listening to Sayumi
she does say some shocking things
But I think she does show her cuteness to some girls, like I know she loves Ai
she must be disliked by some girls, if she really carries herself like that at school. but I'm sure they can't really touch her
you gotta love her confidence

Oda Sakura - S/mileage Audition


randomly came across this
how she's changed!
I dont think I remember her from the auditions
but I'm glad she's in Morning Musume, I think the group suits her voice more
hope she gets a lot of lines!
