Tara, let us know how the new songs sound  :D

I'm going to bet that "16sai no Koi Nante" will feature more Maimi, if simply because she'll be almost 16 when the single's released, and obviously, Nacchi isn't.  But I want to hear the previews, anyway   :P

I was wrong :vv:

It may be a bit strange to be happy to be wrong, but... the previews of the songs are NOW available to anyone via the H!P site! --> http://www.up-front-works.jp/abe-yajima/

Wow. Entirely different to what I was expecting, but their voices work together fantastically <3 Neither song is really 'great' though, which is kinda sad. Two such big H!P names together, I was hoping for something a little better. Ah well.

Think I might have to go for 16sai still.

For those unable to listen to the samples on the site:

16sai no Koi Nante
Watashi no Koibito na noni

Both are 1 min 40 sec long.

Thanks for the links Tara.

Hmmm. I don't know what to think.  The background sounds in both songs remind me of the stock sounds you'd get in one of those electric keyboards.
Their voices compliment each other well really good though, which I'm really pleased with.  I dont think I'll mind which one gets the A-side.

The site says the arrangement used in the samples is temporary and will be changed for the final release.

Oh, so they might not sound so simple in the finished versions...

Well, my vote would go for Watashi no Koibito na noni.
I can't say I LOVE any of them but they are nice songs. The voices fit better together then I thought.

Thanks for sharing the previews Tara.  :)

I have to agree that their voices do blend well. Nacchi's voice has always given me a relaxing feeling while Maimi's has some sort of high adrenaline effect. It's kind of refreshing hearing more of Maimi's voice in a song, not that she doesn't get enough lines in C-ute's singles, but hearing her sing a whole stanza(not from Natsu Doki Lipstick) shows how flexible her voice can be.

It's really hard to decide which is better but I will go with 16sai for the A-side too. But PV-wise, Koibito na Noni seems to have more potential. I don't know but when I first listened to it, the first outfit that came in mind was Berryz's costumes from their latest single  :lol:

I like them both, but I prefer 16sai no Koi Nante, it'd have an interesting PV. The other song sounds too slow and a bit too Xmas-y for my taste :3;;

I guess they'll see which song wins, so it'll make it for the a-side, and the song who loses = the b-side. If that's the case, then I hope 16sai wins.

I think Watashi is more of a duo song than 16sai.

I also like 16-sai no Koi Nante. Nacchi and Maimi both sound really good in it. ^^ If doinkies could vote too, I'd pick that one.

As far as I see, the site doesn't mention if both will end up anyways on the final CD, one a-side and one b-side. If the votation is closed with almost a tie, they could simply make a double a-side, and put all the winner names (all who has voted) into the credits, no one would mind. I guess this is just for not being guily if people doesn't like the a-side. Not wotas, they'd buy the CD only with a cover and no songs just for the love of the girls.

In fact, the voters' names will be in the credits of the Single V. The site doesn't say if the losing song will be the B-side, though doinkies wouldn't be surprised if it does become the B-side.
