The Peace is one of the first PVs I saw with Momusu.... I didn't get the charm with it back then, but now it's one of my faves ^^

Rikas speach in The Peace is the cutest she's ever done! I didn't know this was her favourite song to perform  :D

I'm not a huge fan of the yellow/golden/flowerthingy-dresses though.. I think they look pretty ridiculous  :wink: but the sailorsuits are the cutest!


but they look hot on maki and rika.

the first thing to making me want to find the "peace" pv was the sailor outfits.  the looked cute.  when i finally got it, it was sooo catchy and i like the booty shuffle that they do in the beginning and after rika's monlouge.  first time i realized that rika had a nice butt.  nacchi too!

In all honesty, I didn't like the song much when I heard it for the first time some few months ago. Not the kind of song I've ever been into - I've always been into rock, dance/pop/electro, see...

But it's now one of my favourites. I think watching the Graduation Concert, this being the last song Rika performed then, her favourite.. there's lively, spirited funness about it that can't be matched by any other MM song. If you're ever feeling down, just turn on this piece of magic.

YEAH!! The intro was odd at first to me, but MAN when u see Rika do the solo lines over and over, it is just one that lifts you up no matter what.

WHICH IS WHY. no one should touch the soliloquy :/

but it's so fun. even the end, where u think it's over but it's not.


May 6th? I've never seen this thread before!

The Peace is the only H!P song that I listen to all the damn time and never get tired of. (And I'm the kind of person who put a song in a loop and listen to it for hours.)

"The Peace" was one of the first songs I instinctively sought out when I first decided to put myself through a Morning Musume "crash course" this year, and its distinctive quirks really helped it stand out for me right off the bat: the infectiously catchy chorus, the awesome call-and-response chants, the funky disco vibe, the silly false endings, Rika's switch from insightful thinker to cute ditz in the monologue, the (possibly unintentional) resemblance of certain parts to Super Mario World and Street Fighter music...but most of all, the straight up weirdness of the whole thing. Random lyrics about pizza delivery and convenience stores? A video that takes place in an unusually spacious men's restroom? It was pure insanity, and I couldn't help but be drawn into its psychotic little world.

The video is especially eye-opening...seeing teenage girls not only dance around all those urinals and toilets but also end up being covered in gold towards the end, I could've sworn R. Kelly was involved in its creation. :lol:

And I'm glad I did my research in mostly chronological order, because it made it that much more awesome when a few weeks later I would discover [noembed][/noembed]. I was really looking forward to the new album after that.

So yeah, "The Peace" is awesome. Definitely one of the best, or at least one of the most notable, things to come out of the H!P/UFA machine, and a must-mention when discussing/educating on Momusu's history.

Oh SMAP...here's Masahiro Nakai's take on the song:
