Here's the DDL for the performance on Msta - Mayu Watanabe - 4th Single "Rappa Renshuuchuu"

[Jul3]

It's been really great seeing these two performance of Rappa Renshuuchuu, and Mayu looked so stunning on all of Music Station 

However one thing that's kind of bugged me is seeing OreSkaBand dancing and miming along and not actually playing their instruments. Thankfully on next week's Music Fair (130713) we finally get to see/hear it live!



I'm looking forward to it. And btw, I think the basslines are one of the best bits of this song - so fun and bouncy 
It's a really great summer tune!

Mely translated the interview in BLENDA mag:

The Sound of the Trumpet is the Beating Heart of a Boy in Love

The 4th single which is released on 7/10, when the lyrics were done, it seems like you corrected Akimoto-sensei.

-It’s not like I corrected him, the first impression was just different from the song I imagined. It was comical, and I couldn’t imagine myself singining and dancing to it. I mailed him “Up until now I’ve had orthodox idol songs so I still want to go with orthodox idol songs"

Was the title “Rappa Renshuuchuu" from the start?

- No, the title and the contents were different. After I sent the mail, the lyrics this time came! The hook “Papara Papara Papapa~ra" as a whole struck me as a really cute song.

The “Papara~" sound of the trumpet is the main boy’s beating heart, right?

-That’s right! He wants to confess to the waitress he loves, but he couldn’t muster up the courage and orders cola and refills instead. That action “Renshuu" is compared to “Rappa Renshuuchuu." It’s a song that reminds you of that scene and the summer sun so I also sing it refreshingly and cheerfully. The brass is gorgeously inserted into the song, and I was happy that I had a collab with brass rock band called OreSka Band which consists of 6 girls. I was also in the wind instrument club during middle school.

Ah. What was your part?

- It was the euphonium. The costume matched with OreSka Band-san and with the shirt and the ribbon, it unexpectedly also had a waitress style!

There were lots of colorful costumes so the monotone is fresh.

- Speaking of fresh, when I recorded the second song “Seifuku Identity" it was a song that I haven’t sung until now and so I thought “Ohh! This is new!" Until now I’ve had a lot of cutesy songs, so I honestly love these types of cool songs.

The lyrics had “When I strip off my seifuku", about a year ago when you actually stripped off your seifuku when you graduated high school, has anything changed?

- I grew conscious as a working adult. So I thought that had to firmly show my individuality and identity. Especially working in a large group AKB48, how much can I produce myself? has become really important. In that sense, I’m really glad that I’m able to have solo activies. Since my solo debut, my “I want to do this" ideals have become clear, and I feel like I’ve been able to say my own opinions.

Well then, from now on, what’s your goal as a solo artist?

-I think there are a lot of people who know AKB48 songs but haven’t listened to each member’s unit or solo songs.  In order to let people know about Watanabe Mayu as a solo artist, I want to try my best more and more.
