yeah, i know you'll say "wow, so soon", still no latest news nor tracklist for this single yet. I liked their first single a lot, so i'm for sure looking forward to this. I'm a little disappointed they don't have new outfits, but I really don't care. Those covers look great tho. Those covers could be easily covers for Minna no Tamago................cheap. But still, i can't wait for the preview.

[SINGLE] [02/18] Morning Musume 38th Single - "泣いちゃうかも"

2. 弱虫 (Yowamushi; Coward)
3. 泣いちゃうかも (Instrumental) (Naichau Kamo; I Might Cry)

Response

Ok, here's the clearer ver for now. I can't really say anything bad at all, Kamei's outfit...................urghhhh............... but they all look amazing tho. So now, we'll have to wait for the PV released.

Kamo! Kamo! Kamo!...............Nanikore!

sorry guys bout' the tittle, just kiddin...lol

Already listened to Naichau Kamo few days ago(radio rip), this song looks like a "controversy" one since many fans out there tired of Ai chan and Reina, including me...lol...well at first it didn't really grab me, but since then it has been on repeat. Both of them "conquering" most of the lines, but sometimes that isn't all bad as Ai chan does sound amazing, and its not like Resonant Blue where only those two and Koharu got solo line...so of course Naichau Kamo >>>>>>>>> Resonant Blue in my opinion.......lol.......i've already wished that this new single gave more chances to let Gaki san took most of the lines since she's the sub leader and her voice is not bad as Koh...ops...sorry to "her" fans...lol...I am a bit dissapointed that the 8th gen members are totally "invisible"(almost actually) ....hope to hear more from them in the next singles.

but that's the radio rip, maybe if we listen it again and again from a better quality, then we can consider this song is really a failure or whatever silly ideas you might have...lol

Ok, about the PV (soon), as i can see from their last 4 singles (Onna ni Sachi Are - Pepper Keibu), the PVs quite boring, not really cheap one (like CGI on Mikan's PV...that's expensive i guess...lol) but there's too much "space" (i hope you understand what i mean). So first things first, I just hope there's an interesting PV such as their previous singles like Aruiteru, Shabondama etc.... even it is the cheap one, make it like Osaka Koi no Uta, Namida ga Tomaranai Houkago etc

Even they're dancing in front of a white background and they have some props, urgh whatever...the thing I "care" the most in some PVs is that we get to see the girls' personality..that's more interesting even with a cheap one in my opinion.... I think I'm going to start giving up on UFA putting effort in anything they do from now on....well, can't depend 100% on the PVs only....if the song is great, some fans couldn't accept the PV and on the other side, some fans didn't like the song, but the PV might help a lil bit.

This is a hard one to call on sales wise, so I wont bother trying to guess how well it will do.

I am waiting for covers and pv's yet though.

One of my favourite solo artist in Hello! Project (especially her Enka style),can't wait for it. She has such a great voice and she's the 'quality' in hello! project. I love Enka genre because of her. So sad that this is her last single, anyway, i'll keep supporting you, Maeda Yuki.

[EDIT]

owh, great, the tracklist is out. Man, is this really a single or mini album?...hehe..can't wait for it tho since there's some kind of korean song? Seoul no Ame..hehe

Buono! are doing good without Tsunku and i just hope he won't ruined Buono! since their last 2 singles are awesome, there's no confirmation that Tsunku involved in this single yet. But if it's true, that's scary tho i keep thinking, is Buono! changing their style of music soon? Anyway, just wait and see.

When she graduated from Ongaku Gatas before, i wouldn't believe that she can stand alone, but when Mano Piano released, yeah, she can do it. Mano Piano was a slowest music i've heard(not really), but i was attracted with her voice...soft vocal, sweet tune. Then, Lucky Ola released, she manage to mantain her career succesfully. I hope this 3rd single is good or better than the last 2 singles. I like the cover, simple but sweet. Go Mano Erina.

[EDIT]
ok, i've already listened this single, and it's awesome. Great tune, nice melody. All 3 singles including this are beautiful song from kawaii Mano Erina...lol.

I like Madayade but not the coupling song, it's a little bit weird. Madayade melodies like 70s- 80s but more upbeat styles. Nice single tho.

urgh, i'm late. This is the newest single from ℃-ute, and yeah, this single is awesome. Seventeens VOW is good too. Both song have great melodies, currently i'm stuck with Hagiwara Mai's voice...hey, she's great and beautiful. Don't get me wrong, she's already a "WOMAN" right? On that cover, Mai Mai is the most handsome "guy".....lol

[02/18] Morning Musume 38th Single "Nai Chau Kamo"

This is great, can't wait for it, wonder what genre/style this time. Please, no cover song again...hehe...i'm tired of waiting original song from them. But still, i hope it's a great song and who knows?..maybe can give an impact like LOVE Machine does.

i'll let you know if any news out soon
