I've heard all sorts of crap about how people don't like Resonant Blue, or they love Resonant Blue, or Manoeri should sing Resonant Blue, or Eri's graduating because of the "Scandal." And here's what I have to say to everyone:
SHUT UP.
I will be the first to admit that Mikan was amazing. I loved it. It brought me back to the Koko ni Iruzee days, when the members were just skipping around singing about happiness and the importance of love and stuff, not the stuff they sung about in the MoMusu 'dry spell' that I refer to as the period between Ambitious! and Onna ni Sachi Are. I really hated Kanashimi Twilight and Aruiteru. Egao was good, but it reminds me of the color grey. Those three singles were just fuzzy and kind of a small coffee stain on on the pages of Morning Musume, to me at least. That was 'sexy Morning Musume,' which, if I'm not mistaken, hasn't really worked for them in the past. Tanpopo was 'classy' in it's sexiness for the first generation, but it slowly evolved into a cute but mature sound for Kago, Niigaki and Konno. v-u-den tried the 'sexy' look and their sales plummeted after their third single. Goto Maki has just been a bad memory for Hello! Project, as of late. So I would like to say to everyone who's heard the radio rip for Resonant Blue:
CALM DOWN.
WAIT FOR THE PV.
IT'LL ALL BE OKAY. HELLO! PROJECT WON'T COLLAPSE.
Right now, Wonderful Hearts are all that Hello! Project has. I desperately hope they get a new soloist or group in the near future to liven up Wonderful Hearts, or even a cheerful soloist to slap the Elder Club in the face and make them see that life doesn't stop at 22.
And as a special treat, I'll give you an AKB48 PV.
Recently my blog posts have been mostly about H!P kids and their groups, I've noticed, or even just H!P as a whole (Sure, I'm still in single digit blog posts, but hey. Gimme a break D:) So this one is being given to Morning Musume, H!P's flagship.
Their 36th single was announced in mid January, I think, and was untitled, then pushed back to April from its release date in late March, now, about a month later, it's been named. It's called Resonant Blue. I've got the feeling that it'll be a ballad, and that lyrics will be distributed fairly (I'm thinking that NiiNii might have more than one rushed line. And Junjun too!) And I feel like it'll sell better.
I really can't wait for the radio rip, at least. Then the PV. Then the download, of course. But, I feel like it's going to be good. Like, epic. Not necessarily a LOVE Machine or anything to start the golden age, but maybe enough to get them out of a slump.
It's Feb 10 over in Japan right now. So Haromoni@ will start in about an hour (it's 10:00a.m. over there). And this episode is going to be epic for fans everywhere. Because AmerikaJinMusume, a dancer on Youtube who specializes in H!P songs, will be appearing as a part of the Moutube series that they have going on right now. They filmed her specifically for Haromoni@. So that's pretty epic xD I'm really looking forward to seeing that episode, even raw! With subs would be even better~
So that's all I have to say.
And, it was 10 in Japan when I started writing this, but I had to leave for dinner, and then i finished it now D: So don't yell at me xD
