Author Topic: Ultimate Morning Musume Single Poll [E Round 1] (Read 10459 times)

shirenuファクトリー · « **on:** November 28, 2010, 12:46:38 PM »

Welcome to the Ultimate Morning Musume single poll!

This poll was last held here in 2006, which means it's not one of those annoying polls that shirenu runs every year.

All Morning Musume singles (except Sakuragumi/Otomegumi) are included and have been randomly split into six teams, A - E. Each team has 7 or 8 songs.
3 songs with most points from each team will make it to round 2.

Because I would actually like you to watch the videos and listen to the songs before you vote, the threads are initially locked. They will be unlocked one by one every few days. Once all threads are unlocked, there are still 5 or so days left to vote; round 1 ends Monday December 13.

How to vote: List the 3 songs that you want to make it to the next round. That's all

Usually the polls are just everyone giving their votes, but if you want to explain why you voted each song, or what kind of thoughts came up while you were watching the videos, any babble is ok :3
I realize that a poll like this could be simply done with, you know, a poll machine. But I want people to actually reply. Mwahaha.

Round 2 will be open for 1 week, so until Monday Dec 20th. There will be teams A - C then, 3 songs from each will make round 3 again.

In round 3 the voting will possibly be different; I haven't decided yet. Suggestions are welcome. Either way the voting will end Dec 30 or so.

Any unbanned forum member is free to vote so go for it folks!

Songs to vote for in this team:

Love Machine
c/w - 21seiki

Daite! HOLD ON ME
c/w - Tatoeba

I WISH

I WISH can make me cry and is one of my favourite songs ever.
Egao Yes Nude is groovy and sexy. lol
Souda! is one of the most creative and random pieces of pop music I've heard, in a totally awesome way.

I WISH Probably still my favorite Musume song of all time.

SOUDA! WE'RE ALIVE Gen-5 breakthrough. And the first "Single V" ever.

IROPPOI JIRETTAI Noted as The Miracle's Debut but still a helluva tune when Tsunku and his production team could do no wrong. Underrated.

This one hurts to leave off some of the songs....but if I have to choose three, so be it....
1)Love Machine- The big hit deserved to be a big hit- combination of Disco Magic, great song, some memorable dance moves, and the often overlooked fantastically talented Aya Ishiguro and her magical facial expressions. A Great Song, yes, but an Epic Music Video- where watching and listening are both a must. And introducing an individual who is unlike any other in the idol genre- Maki Goto (Maki appears in my top three choices today)
2) Souda! We're ALIVE- Base thumping, drums pounding, Girls chanting, colors popping, Marshall Amps stacking, Grooving and Moving....You can hit the streets or the sheets, it don’t make me no nevermind. That’s your bag, baby. You can go or you can come, can you dig it? (Thank you Black Dynamite!)
3) I WISH straight from the feelgood uplifting part of the H!P song book, and again a great watchable video, with a really cute storyline. Rika looking good, feeling good!

Oddly I'm not voting for their most popular song ever here.

Then again, that seems to be the case in these polls recently. Problem here though is 3 of my all-time favs are in this group.

1. I Wish - So incredibly sentimental.
2. Souda! We're Alive - Such an incredible song. I heard someone say once at a forum that this is like 3 different songs all in one, and that's really rather true, but they go together quite well. I like complex epicness

3. Ai Araba IT's ALL RIGHT! - This used to be one of my top favorites cause the video is just insanely cute, but sadly I don't listen to it as much anymore...

Time to think

Souda! We're alive
I WISH
Ai araba IT'S ALL RIGHT!

Souda! We're alive: Epic Win. Colors, dance, music, jumping, a remix of awesomeness in only one song. Solo lines sounds fantastic to me here for some reason. Maki

I WISH: I tear up with this song each damn time. And Aibon final lines...

Emotionally epic.
Ai araba IT'S ALL RIGHT!: Nacchi's last. Too adorable for words, song and pv both.

God, I have been changing my votes here a lot x_x. There a lot of good songs in this group too. I'm going to die when we reach 2nd round

Another group where I had trouble picking the third song...

Souda! We're Alive - DORYOKU! MIRAI! Just can't beat the funky rhythms and swagger in this song; I love how those elements remain even with the constant style switching.
Ai Araba It's All Right - Again with the funky rhythms...excellent bass lines and horn hits won me over for this otherwise overly sugary song.

I Wish - Same as above, except with turntable scratches. FUN FACT: This song contains a sample of "It's Funky Enough" by The D.O.C....yes, you are sensing a pattern here.

I was tempted to throw in a vote for Daite Hold On Me, just because of Utaban.

I also feel bad for not voting for Love Machine and Egao Yes Nude, but the other songs took priority.
