Royal Pirates

Lately, I've been really into Royal Pirates. I got really into their debut song Shout Out thanks to Simon and Martina from EatYourKimchi. I was honestly surprised that I haven't heard of them during their YouTube days but I guess it's better late than never. I think they are a good band. So those of you guys who don't know them, please check them out! :D 

 

Latest H!P releases

Lately, I am in love with S/mileage and Juice=Juice's upcoming releases! ^-^ I'm usually not really into S/mileage songs but this one it just made me in love with it as soon as I heard it. And for Juice=Juice's upcoming single, it is just so mature! This is probably the most mature song I have ever heard in a long time. For some reason, their songs remind me of the early 2000's Hello Project songs.

Freedom

I know that I said I'll be posting anything music related on my other blog but I'm still thinking of posting songs that I'm currently into on this blog. So lately, I've been into the song Freedom by Ramm feat.Ayami. I know a lot of you guys don't know this but Ayami seems like she finally active as an artist now! She was a finalist for the Morning Musume 8th generation audition but she dropped out and probably because she also auditioned for Avex at the same time. Anyways, I didn't know she finally made her debut till I saw a video of her on the official avex channel on YouTube. She really looked different and I did not recognize her at first but for some reason, I had this feeling that it was her. I hope Ayami will have a nice music career and I'm glad that she's still singing :) 

Romance no Tochuu

I really like Juice=Juice's upcoming major single! I loved it ever since the concert rip came out. I feel like this song is a very strong song for their major debut single and I hope they'll win the Best New Artist award this year or at least be a nominee :) 

 

Wagamama ki no mama ai no joke

I know that the video came out about a week ago but I still want to share my thoughts about this song. I love it! I like how the lines are more distributed although I still wish Kanon and Kuduu would be more part of the spotlight. As for the video, I feel like Up-Front decided not to be cheap and they have 2 outfits rather than one. I feel like it's been forever since they had 2 outfits for one song! I believe the last time they had 2 outfits were for Maji de Suka Ska. The dance is awesome and the PV shows everyone equally and I just love this song! 

Better Without You

I've been interested in the group FAKY ever since the trailer for the first member came out. I was really looking forward to this group but when I first heard this song, I was a little disappointed. The song isn't the best to showcase their vocals which I think they all have pretty strong vocals but I gave a few listens and I like it now. I think this group shows so much potential and they have really talented girls. Also this group sort of reminded me of 2NE1 in the beginning. Although this song is not the best, I hope all their future releases will be great :) 

More Satoumi songs :)

More of the Satoumi movements songs have been shown on UF licks. I really like the song by Mellowquad. I think the lyrics are really unique and it has a up-beat sound to it. Also I think it'll be great song for a matsuri! 

Ai no Gundan

The dance shot version was uploaded today on Hello Station! ^-^ When I first heard it, I thought the beginning was kind of weird and I also thought the dance was kind of weird too. But when I started to listen to this song over and over again, I started to really like it. I think the arrangement is very unique and I feel like it's something I haven't heard before. I recommend you guys to listen to it! ^-^ 

 

Crazy Kanzen na Otona

I've been loving the new upcoming Hello Project releases lately! ^-^ I really like C-ute's upcoming single Crazy Kanzen na Otona. It's been a while since I have actually loved a C-ute song. I honestly do like C-ute. I think they're one of the best HP groups but I haven't been liking their songs lately. I don't think Kono Machi was a bad song but it wasn't something that I was like "I love it!" so it was a so-so for me. Anyways, I think this song is catchy and C-ute really can pull off the sexy image. I'm not liking the shorts though. :/ I think they're a little too short but other than that, I think it's awesome! :) And I think Maimai looks super pretty in this! :D 

Asian Celebration

The PV is finally out! ^-^ Well, it's been out for a few days but yeah...anyways, I really like this song! I think it's better than WANT and Cha Cha SING. The PV is pretty much how I imagined it. DJ, discos, etc...

>

WANT!

The PV for want is finally out! ^-^ It came out a lot earlier than I expected. I love it! <33 and I can't wait for the song to be out! I think the song is really catchy and the PV is really cool. :D Though I do think that it wasn't a good idea to autotune Risako's voice. It sounds kind of annoying. 

やっとBerryz工房の新曲のPVが出ました。いい曲ですね！

Teleporation

I can't wait to get Sexy Zone's 1st album! I talked to my grandma on the phone some days ago and she said told she haven't bought it yet so I'm worried that she isn't going to get the limited edition(I want to watch the Las Vegas documentary) Anyways, I found the solos from the album and I really like Teleportation and Rouge. 

                     

                      
I have also been into Berryz Koubou's upcoming single, Want :) 

Fore Fore~Forest for Rest

The whole PV is finally out! ^-^ I have one thing to say, I love it! ^-^ I really like the PVs for both Peaberry and DIY because they're not bland as the other H!P PVs and it's kind of interesting. Plus it was shot outdoors :D 

やっとPVが出ましたね！＾－＾このＰＶ好きです！ほかのハロプロのPVと違うと思います。PeaberryとDIYの曲どっちも好きです！ <3

Sony artists on Itunes! ^-^

So today, I just randomly went on Itunes and it said that finally, finally, Sony artists are on Itunes! ^-^ It's a miracle! I always wanted Ikimono-gakari, YUI, Scandal, Stereopony(Although I think they've on Itunes for a while, not sure) etc to have their songs on Itunes! I guess since downloading songs for free online became illegal in Japan and their CD sales seems to have decreased there, they finally decided to have their songs on there. I honestly think buying songs on Itunes or any sites like it is a better choice than buying CDs because CDs in Japan are expensive and they take up space. While buying songs online does take space on your computer but it's not too much of a big deal. I wonder if Johnny's songs will be on Itunes someday...if they do, I'll be happy :D

Cabbage Hakusho

Even though Peaberry's PV for their single "Cabbage Hakusho" has been out for a few days now, I really think the PV is awesome! ^-^ It made me love the song more than I did. I can't wait for the single to be out! <33

C-ute's best album

So today, I found some of the radio rips of the some the songs from their new best album that's going to be out on November 21th. For Massara Blue Jeans, people were complaining about the new arrangement. I honestly think it's not bad at all. I actually like it. It shows how mature they have become but I honestly do think it's not the best to change the arrangement on a best album. Probably like coupling song on a single will be better.

                                 

I actually don't have any interest in Exile but I have been into their new group, Generations. I like the song but I don't really know much about the group. I think the song is really catchy and they're really talented in such a young age. I'm not too surprised since they're part of the Exile family so yeah...I actually tried to learn the song but I couldn't find the lyrics and I tried to vocal remove it but it wouldn't work. 

            

What?? Hey!x3 is going to end??

I can't believe Hey! Hey! Hey! is going to end! :( I really liked that show even though I don't watch it that often. I thought the hosts(Downtown) were really funny and it made the show fun and lively. Shows like Music Station seems to have a more quieter atmosphere and it focuses solely on music but Hey!x3 focused on more than that. It always featured some tarentos and former idols and the again, the show was just lively. I wonder what show will replace Heyx3 and whatever show it might be, I hope it will be good as Heyx3 :)

Bokutachi no Yukue

So lately, I've been into the song Bokutachi no Yukue by Takahashi Hitomi! ^-^ I heard one of her songs on Gintama and I really liked it so I decided to look her up :) 

 

I also like Morning Musume's new single :) I think it's pretty catchy 

   

I love C-ute's harmonies in this! ^-^ 

 

CHA CHA SING

I love Berryz Koubou's new single! ^-^ I think it's super catchy and they really made the song their own. It sort of reminds me of "Dschinghis Khan" since there both covers and I haven't really liked any of their new singles since "Heroine ni Narouka" so I'm pretty excited for this single. 



I didn't know this song was a cover of a Korean song till I read it on a blog but I totally think this is very cool! I don't really mind Bump.y changing their music style even I miss their ballad-type songs but everybody in this group is super talented and I really wish this group can be more popular. 




I don't listen to SNSD often but I love "Let it Rain". I like these kinds of songs and I hope I'll get to cover it someday :) 




I also don't listen to much NEWS but I like their new single. I honestly like the 4 member NEWS more than the 6 member NEWS but that's just probably because I'm not a huge fan of Yamapi and Nishikido. 


 

Music#11

So lately, I've been into songs that haven't been released or songs that already been released recently. 

I've been into Glory Days by Mano Erina. I don't listen to her much but I like some of her songs. I think this song is cool and it has a 80s vibe to it but I still like it. :)

 I also been into....Renai Hunter! ^-^ I love the song so much <33 I'm sad Gaki san is graduating but I think this song is just awesome and I'm glad shes one of the leads in this. Gaki san deserved more attention but I think she finally got it.



 
Lastly, even though I don't really like Lady Diamond, I think this song is just plain cool. :) I guess I just don't like things that sound 70s-80sish but I think this song is a lot better than Lady Diamond even though I kind of like Renai Hunter. It's kind of sad 2 of my favorite groups are releasing their new single on the same day because I think both groups deserve that spot to be #1.
