Whoa...Riho looks different. Did she get taller?

Anyway, interesting titles for these songs...let's break them down for a bit:

The first song is called "One Two Three". Morning Musume released a B-side song three years ago called "3 2 1 Breakin' Out", when the average member age was at its highest. Titling a song attached to a single release with the reverse order of numbers at a time when the average member age is at its lowest should imply that the girls are now "breaking in".

The second song is "The Matenrou Show". The word "Matenrou" means "skyscraper".

The last time Momusu released a double A-side single we saw both songs connected together somehow. Assuming they do the same here, the overall theme of this release implies that the girls are breaking into a skyscraper...and seeing as this is the 50th single, which is a landmark worth celebrating, the PV needs to be epic.

So despite the cuteness of those outfits, it's only right to assume that the PV will be based on this!

The Raid : Redemption - Official Trailer [HD] (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkULMOFpuCo#ws)

Okay, we all know it won't...but based on my analysis IT NEEDS TO BE, DAMMIT!!!! O0

Don't mind me, just being random with what first came to mind when I saw the song titles...also, I need to see that movie sometime.

This is a huge milestone, though! Omg, I can't believe they are at 50 already? And every single member looks seriously adorable, guh. Haruna esp.  :heart:

Maybe a combination of Ayumi being tiny (really, I didn't realize how tiny she is at first) and them wearing more make-up than usual... And yeah, Riho might be getting taller, too. :lol:

I just wonder how the hell Eripon is posing. Is she on her knees? Why? :lol:

I FOOKEN LOVE IT!!

It occurred to me it'd be pretty cool if fans also helped with some special promos for this single. The song is cool, it's their 50th single... What a great opportunity?

Either way I'm just happy they're releasing another awesome single 8)

As for the costums  :twothumbs
I love Sayumi's zettai ryouiki..  :drool:

What type of zettai ryouiki do you think it is?

I hesitate between grade A or B?

Call me a pessimist or anything, but now that the song has passed the test and the choreography is actually cool, the next acid test is the PV and the single covers. PLEASE GIVE THEM NICE COVERS. Properly photoshopped plzkthnx.

And the PV. Renai Hunter had a pretty decent PV so I hope they kind of build from that. They can be capable of nice shots and even some creativity, so let's hope we get something appropriately awesome for such a song. I want to have something new to stare at so director, onegaishimasu. Please allow me to be able to loop the PV until the next awesome thing comes out.

And yes, July is too far off. Can't wait already. X.x

Normally I'm the type that tries to avoid spoilers/previews too early on before something gets released. The preview pics for the costumes just got the better of me this time, so I had to check it out. :sweatdrop:

It's a new, different vibe for a single, which is one of the things that I've always liked about MM (the fact that their songs don't always follow the standard "pop" genre/style). :)

Oh my, do you mean we have 2 out of 4 OK? (almost 3, since those are the outfits for the single covers and they look amazing).
I suppose they'll screw the PV this time. Probably a dance shot / close up  alternating in a white background.

I think Slack was the one to mention it in the Renai Hunter thread but I find myself thinking about it now that I've heard this song; Tsunku really is quite good at adapting to new musical trends and adding them to Momusu songs (dubstep influences in Renai Hunter, kpop influences in One Two Three).

I love the song enough to order it, something I haven't done since Resonant Blue was released 2008. My only complaint are the costumes seem cheap. Not to say they aren't cute, but the quality of the skirts seem sort of lackluster. Not much to quibble about, though if that's all I can come up with  :lol:

Definitely looks like Yasshii hit a growth spurt. :lol:

Most def. She grew approximately 5cm in one year, 2cm of which happened in one month. That was at the beginning of the year, and Riho has complained on her radio show that people keep telling her she looks bigger every time they see her. And then Deli-kun is like "now that you mention it...", to Riho's horror. :lol: It also cracked me me up in the following week's ep cos the first thing Deli said to her was "you look taller again!" and Riho was like "USO!!!" followed by "...really????" XD The poor kid lol.

The height issue has also spawned some interesting debate regarding how at the rate Riho is growing, she might end up being the next Yurina. The wota in general Do Not Approve. XD The general sentiment seems to be that they want Riho to be loli forever. :lol: The other opinion being that if she grows too tall, she'll be disqualified as the ace, the role defaulting to Ayumi, who is appropriately tiny. Dis wota and their conspiracy theories lol. Then again, Tsunku seems to like tiny aces if history has any bearing on this, but it could just be a coincidence that the strongest performers were just that small. Although, I feel compelled to point out that Momusu as a group has been tiny in general. I mean, the tallest ever Musume was Junjun, and she didn't even break the 170cm barrier. :lol:

Then again, if this song is any indication, Riho is still firmly on track to becoming the future ace lol. Besides, the other kids seem to be growing quickly too, or started off closer to the 160 mark to begin with, so we might actually see for the first time in Musume history where most of the members are over 160cm. :lol: Well, in a few years anyway haha.

Lyrics

More than a million dollar view
More than a 10 carat diamond
I simply wanted to be there with you
Do you get it? HEY BABY

I wouldn't make any excuses or such
The truth is that I wanted to be closer to you
The pure, innocent me is right here
HA HA HA HA

More love
More information
Neglect is something
I won't ever forgive

Girls always want to be coddled

In this world
I wonder how many
Lovers there might be
So hold on tightly
And head to the other side of the universe

One, with a little unease
Two, I put on my clothes crisply
Three, I just have to keep working a little harder
I am waiting for you

One, I want you to bother me
Two, I want you to touch me
Three, I want you to smile at me
I am waiting for you

I love you, I love you, I love you
Because I love you
I will always be on your side no matter what
I-love-you.

More than a million times of saying I love you
Just a kiss will be enough
Girls are strange, aren't they?
Do you understand? HEY BABY

I'm not exactly waiting for a call from you
Just that you taking too long makes it painful
Don't you try and pass it off as nothing
HA HA HA HA

Are you holding yourself back?
Or falling into silences?
It's somehow getting awkward

Girls always want to be excited

Just how much is there
To this dream?
As long as there is a possibility
So accept it all
And believe in the future

One, with just a little teasing
Two, your face it
Three, puffs up
You are adorable

One, my feelings
Two, please get them right
Three, these are my true intentions
You are adorable

 I love you, I love you, I love you
Because I love you
I will always be on your side no matter what
I-love-you.

One, just a little
Two, crisply
Three, almost there

 One, with a little unease
Two, I put on my clothes crisply
Three, I just have to keep working a little harder
I am waiting for you

One, I want you to bother me
Two, I want you to touch me
Three, I want you to smile at me
I am waiting for you

I love you, I love you, I love you
Because I love you
I will always be on your side no matter what
I-love-you.

Mature song. Me likey. XD

I'm really happy with this single. .. or the first track and the looks they have. The girls all have "modern" hairstyles. Ayumis ribbonhair and harunans horn-buns are pretty popular hairstyles (in the magazines). And their costumes are really idol-y with the girls colors wich could be so the girls are easier to recognice for new fans, wich is good.

The last two singles have had a really modern feel...without too much Tsunku wierdness.. I do love the wierdness, don't get me wrong. But it would also be really nice  if momusu could rise to greater heights with singles that feel more in touch with whats the right sound for the time being. And costumes that have a less costum-y feel. On the other side if they dance in chicken costumes they are bound to be remebered for ... the costumes. Oh. I don't know. I'm tired and a little ranty and I really dig the one-two-three-song. It's gooooooood.

Momusu <3

Ok so I've watched the video of this performance more times than can probably be considered healthy cause it's just that amazing but something about the costumes kept bugging me. I kept trying to count how many girls had Reina's outfit and how many had Sayu's (which was hard cause they wouldn't stop moving) cause they seemed uneven.

After finally realizing I should just name the girls in each outfit I realized yes, there are 4 girls in Sayu's outfit and 6 in Reina's which didn't make any sense to me. I finally realized (cause I'm super slow) it's cause Aika was supposed to have Sayu's outfit as well which woulda evened it out (as even as you can be with 11 people).

It's just sad to realize how far they'd actually gone with planning for her to be in this single only for her to have to graduate right before the promotions started.

You can't really assume that though.
There's lots of instances where distributions of costumes and the like are uneven, especially in Japan.

While most cultures tend toward symmetry, it's a quirk of Japanese culture to tend toward intentional asymmetry, which art historians call "hacho".
"Balanced unbalancedness", as Tsunku might say.

I find it generally amusing how fan opinion all seem to be mortally terrified that the PV is going to suck after approving of the song and the choreography. I guess any experienced fan knows better than to hope for too much from UFA lol. We love the girls but have no faith in the management. :lol:

Any idea if any previews for the other song will be leaked or shown? They hadn't even filmed for the PV at the time of the Girl's Awards, so I assume it's going to be done soon. I expect we'll see the video we all anticipate (and dread XD) by the later half of June. Ugh, at least another 2 to 3 weeks...

Ha ha I don't even care about the PV as long as there is a dance shot and everyone looks pretty. :lol:

It'd be cool if the kpop influence in the song was also in the PV, as in more grand and expensive looking, but considering that even kpop groups have cheap fucking videos in Japan I don't see that happening. It'll be just the same old dancing in front of a background feat. close-ups of each member, and then one extra "special" scene like posing with a motorcycle or some shit... :lol: Whether or not people like the video depends on what kind of background and "special" scene they choose this time. Hahahahahah.

Most def. She grew approximately 5cm in one year, 2cm of which happened in one month. That was at the beginning of the year, and Riho has complained on her radio show that people keep telling her she looks bigger every time they see her. And then Deli-kun is like "now that you mention it...", to Riho's horror. :lol: It also cracked me me up in the following week's ep cos the first thing Deli said to her was "you look taller again!" and Riho was like "USO!!!" followed by "...really????" XD The poor kid lol.

The height issue has also spawned some interesting debate regarding how at the rate Riho is growing, she might end up being the next Yurina. The wota in general Do Not Approve. XD The general sentiment seems to be that they want Riho to be loli forever. :lol: The other opinion being that if she grows too tall, she'll be disqualified as the ace, the role defaulting to Ayumi, who is appropriately tiny. Dis wota and their conspiracy theories lol. Then again, Tsunku seems to like tiny aces if history has any bearing on this, but it could just be a coincidence that the strongest performers were just that small. Although, I feel compelled to point out that Momusu as a group has been tiny in general. I mean, the tallest ever Musume was Junjun, and she didn't even break the 170cm barrier. :lol:

Then again, if this song is any indication, Riho is still firmly on track to becoming the future ace lol. Besides, the other kids seem to be growing quickly too, or started off closer to the 160 mark to begin with, so we might actually see for the first time in Musume history where most of the members are over 160cm. :lol: Well, in a few years anyway haha.

I'd make a Nine Muses joke, but it's 10nin Musume right now.  :sweatdrop:

I have no doubt the Dance Shot ver is released earlier being that it's easier to make than the actual, proper MV

but tbh I don't see the point of it seeing as it's just a 'lite' version of the live at Girls Award

I've been lurking at the video and watching the comments stream update constantly. The response from the Japanese fans has been very encouraging and it makes me even happier to see that even the first generation fans are slowly coming back to the fold, with several commenting that they might actually buy this single for the first time since 10 years ago. :lol:

Words cannot express how much I love this in general, because I love this new Momusu to bits. Riho is amazing, Ayumin is amazing, so much love for everyone, even the ones I'm not looking at. :lol: The real surprise for me here was Eripon, whom I hardly had any expectations for. That is usually the case. :lol: They always surprise me when I least expect it. XD

The only real downer is how the English-speaking fans are almost always uniformly negative and/or whiny. Is it not enough to love the group? Must you nitpick endlessly about line distribution? I might be biased, of course, since I adore Riho and Riho is right in the front and has a lion's share of the lines. But it's not as if the other members are completely invisible. Hell, I was watching this with rokun and he and I notice completely different people in the same video. :lol: It's called selective attention, and I'm more interested in the cohesion of the group as a whole and the charms of those that manage to catch my eye, rather than bitch about how so-and-so doesn't have enough screentime. Again, I repeat that I might have a bias, since my favorite has tons of screentime, but I'm just saying how frustrating it is to read English speakers whine on the official video about how "oh, Reina again? I'm sick of hearing Reina" or "Oh, you mean Momusu had more than 2 members?" Comments like this really hurt the fandom, and it hurts my pitiful little wota heart, who just wants to have fun and love the girls. At least the Japanese fans are basically rejoicing in how the new girls are shining in their own ways, pointing out the good things and generally living it up. That's not to say criticism is a bad thing, but really. At least nitpick on more important things, will ya? And even when the Japanese fans like the girls with less screentime, they don't whine and blame Tsunku and demand more screentime. They are more like "GANBARE!!! WORK HARD SO YOU CAN HAVE YOUR DAY IN THE SUN!!". I like this attitude so much better. :lol:

Sorry about the rant lol. It gets annoying to see the English speaking fans making a ruckus about the usual uneven line distribution, when Momusu has ALWAYS had uneven line distribution. I mean, it goes all the way back to when it was Nacchi feat. Morning Musume. It's not new, it's not going to change, and at least now the kids actually get more screentime compared to before. Is it not enough to love and support them? I know I'm having fun watching the view counter frozen at 308, and the likes counter climbing steadily. 4400+ likes in a 7 hour period. That's progress. Renai Hunter on the official channel only has 11k likes, total. After how many months? We're not even past the first 12 hours and we're already halfway there for this one. I can't help but be caught up in the insane enthusiasm shown by the commenters. XD

Also, my real purpose of commenting here is to post this:

I guess each version will have the different b-sides located separately. This should be entertaining...

Tsunku's comment on the song from his blog! http://ameblo.jp/tsunku-blog/entry-11269289099.html (http://ameblo.jp/tsunku-blog/entry-11269289099.html)


「One・Two・Three」
- This time I really cut it close to the last minute to complete this song. Even after deciding on a theme, the image I had kept slipping away from it, and everytime I tried something it didn't work out, and I had to start over again. After countless changes, I finally settled on the current style.
The heroine the lyrics are based on is a pure, lovable, and reserved sort of girl, who wants the person she loves to care more about her, but is too shy to say it. Even then, her heart is unwavering in her love, and a girl who will work hard and wait patiently to be loved.
Why such a style for this song? This is after I looked at every single of the current 10-member group, assessing their faces and voices, and tried to pick something that will work for them as a group. Instead of assigning individual sentences, I assigned parts in a way to allow all 10 of them to shine wherever they stand. Some of the girls might have shockingly few lines, but as their voices overlap there is no sense of unease, and even within the out-of-place-ness there is no discomfort (?), and the song continues to evolve, becoming something you can hear the heart of.

I also added vocal effects (damn you, autotune, it was your idea tsunku?!) without hesitation.

It might be difficult to reproduce the desired effect live, but first I wanted to produce something like this.

The dance this time is also set at a higher level as a challenge to the members. 9th and 10th gen have only been in the group for around a year at most, and while they might not be moving in the same way as pro dancers, they are giving it their all at their current experience level (100% every single time), and this is what makes them Morning Musume.

But yes Tsunku should know that the autotuning really does get under us english-speaking fans' skins

But if it ends up selling well in Nihonland (like oricon #2 or #1 first week) then who are we to critique? :P

mmm... i like the dance. lotsa catchy group-sync stuff and formation switches. The song is good after a few listens too. nice job. :thumbup

Nitpick. I think someone, anyone, should go all "woooah-woah~~" when there's a "woooah-woah~~". I always keep trying to find the person singing it. XD

I agree with Estrea, I love the attitude of Japanese fans (very generally said of course, not every J-fan is positive etc). I don't like it when foreign fans poison topics with bitterness and cynicism.

LOL I've said this before, but my fav member is Eripon and she won't be leading songs possibly ever. But so what. :lol: And hey she has moved from the far end corner to the side of the semi-front! That's what it's about! KEEP WORKING HARD ERIPON!! :lol:

Couple of thoughts:

1 - That combination of dance moves from other singles went better than I would think (except for the JKM one which looks out of synch)
2 - Background. Ew. That gold / brown color clashes completely with the girls' outfit. And it's a pity, because:
3 - The visual effect of the black/white plus different colors of the outfits when you watch them in movement is spectacular.
4 - AYUMI. Damn that girl can D-A-N-C-E.
5 - OK, I'm not a good dance critic because I don't understand a shit about dancing, but some say that the dance looks messy and I can't see it. Granted the JKM - like movement looks awkward, but as for the rest it looks great and smooth. Better than most MM choreographies we've seen where all you have is flail arms / change position / sing, more flailing arms / kick-jump-whatever / back to position.
6 - LOVE LOVE LOVE the chorus. And again, Damn AYUMI  :wub:

Ahhh, I still love this song/outfits!

but okay, I agree with Shi/Estrea, it's totally disheartening to see fans getting super negative! Like I completely understand wanting your favorite member to get more screen/singing time (trust me, my favorite member was Makoto)! Everyone wants that, of course... but again, this is nothing new and I really wish people would support the group regardless and have that same GO FOR IT attitude as some other fans.

Aughdjfls I can't wait for the real PV.  :heart:

Oh please tell me that all those negative votes aren't just people pressed over the line distribution... GIVE ME A FARKING BREAK!!

I bet the dance for the Matenrou Show will be fun :P

Ya know it occurred to me, they don't need to be doing charity with line distribution with either of the main tracks here because they are releasing the limited editions with 6ki, 9ki, 10ki c/w songs... "So you wanna hear your fav sing? Get her generation's single." I think that was their reasoning behind that. Now if the 9ki song still turns out to be 90% Riho and Eripon gets one "ah", THEN I'll be pressed as well. LOL

I love the song. Very retro & funky.

I could understand people complaining about the line-distribution if it was a recent development.
But the truth of the matter is it's been like this for many, many years now. Seems a bit late to harp about it now.
It's one of the things you know going into it.
Plus about 50% of the song is the girls singing in unison (a fact that many are apparently completely disregarding), which means guaranteed PV time so I really don't see the problem.

In any case, can't wait to hear the coupling songs, because this single is an allround win in my book so far.

I feel like maybe the fact that it only seems to be overseas fans complaining about line distribution has to do with some expectation of "equality" and "fairness" in English-speaking countries.
It's such a hang-up for people because they think of 100% equal line distribution as how it "should" be.

Well, this ain't kindergarten where everyone gets a turn.
This is how the idol group genre works, and has worked for decades now.
Unless a group only has about 3 members of roughly equal skill and popularity, there will ALWAYS be inequalities in the lines they get.
Any more than that, and you get situations like Shiba-chan and the Melon-ettes.

After listening to The Matenrou SHOW, it seems very clear to me that Riho is one of the top two singers in the group now.
With some of the things the melody does, going into falsetto range, this seems like a VERY vocally demanding song.
Despite this, Riho pulls it off so well in the recording that I don't even think any of the other members could sing it as well as she and Reina do.

Not even my beloved Fuku-chan seems like she's at the level where she'd do as great a job on this song.
It seems to me that even though she seems the closest in terms of control and consistency, Riho has clear advantages in power and expressieveness.

Even with the two Rs dominating the singing, that usually means that they won't be dancing like the other girls.
To me, that's a pretty clear indication that Daaishi's dancing will continue to be featured at the center.
Fuku-chan, Masaki, and maybe Haruka round out the second-tier vocalists, who will probably take turns when a song suits having a third lead.
It's just that this is not one of those songs.

Trying to look at the whole thing objectively, I'd say that if there IS a way it "should" be, this is it, at least on an A-side (double or not) with the members' skills being where they are right now.
There's definitely going to be much more even distribution for the gen-specific B-sides.

More than any other time in recent memory, this arrangement seems closest to an actual meritocracy.
In my opinion, that's actually a BETTER situation than trying to enforce blind equality.
People who get so hung up on inequalities forget that there's sometimes good reasons for them.

Hey, MoMusu's situation is better than SPEED already, they had 2 members who do ZERO singing!

Besides, if people wanna hear equal line distributions theres always Berryz & S/mileage's pre-Ogawa-grad songs

I'm at least grateful the line singers were & still are what is believed to be the unit's 2 best vocalists, can you imagine a MoMusume song being Sayu-Koha led?!

And I also believe that in future performances TMS may see more evenly spread distributions; like Furusato between Koharu & the 8th gen-ers in 2007, & Daite Yo Please Go On between the High-King members

Haha and I just got done commenting about trolling in general. :lol:

Quoting Slack:
"Not even my beloved Fuku-chan seems like she's at the level where she'd do as great a job on this song.
It seems to me that even though she seems the closest in terms of control and consistency, Riho has clear advantages in power and expressieveness."

Yup I sort of wanted to expand on this. I think many fans also have misconceptions about the true vocal qualities of the members. I mean I've seen people talk highly of Zukki's vocal abilities, but this is a girl whose voice I've witnessed crack in a live performance on several occasions, even if she doesn't have that many lines. A cracking voice should be a big hint that someone's singing technique is flawed, particularly if it happens more than once (it can happen *sometimes* to even the best singers, but it's hardly the same. To them it's maybe a one out of million chance to crack, whereas Zukki's stats are a lot less favourable). Maybe because of her funny personality people are confusing her with Makoto Ogawa who DID have stable vocal abilities, but Zukki still has a long way to go to reach that level. And I may have chosen Zukki as an example, but really all the new members still have a lot to prove. For Japanese idols, their level is good! But that doesn't mean that any one of them can carry a single, YET. An album song or a c/w maybe, but a single is different.

We do know that Momusu can have a 3-top with two stronger vocalists and one weaker one (Aichan-Miki-Rika comes to mind; or Reina-Aichan-Koharu), but I don't think the management has decided who that 3rd is supposed to be yet. Maybe we'll even have a 3-top with all capable vocalists, or a shuffling 3rd member, who knows... But right now the safest bet is to rely on the two stable deliverers, Reina and Riho. Of course I want the other girls to have more lines, too. I want to hear their voices and get to learn them better. But there's a time and place for everything. Maybe my personality is just too patient :lol:

I'm kind of rooting for Ayumi to step up next, it'd be only natural since she's already dancing in the centre. But if she's not already getting lines, there must be a reason for it. :? She's clearly someone they want to pimp and I believe they'd give her lines if she was ready.

Or maybe there could even be a 4-top (like early Berryz in particular), or 5-top (with a core and strong supporters, 3-2 or 2-3). I don't know. I'm just thinking aloud now, and I'm hungry.

Post by: Estrea on June 11, 2012, 01:10:25 PM
^^ Zukki can sing, the problem is that in most concerts, her voice cracks while she dances. Her stamina is clearly the problem here, so once she has gotten the singing while dancing part down, she might have a fighting chance for more lines. Riho on the other hand, had the same problem with singing while dancing this time last year, but if the latest concert is any indication she has overcome the problem.

Eripon is still my biggest dark horse. When she first joined her singing was the worst in 9th gen, and I had a moment of horror when they revived rainbow pink with her and Sayu for that one performance in their debut concert. It was like Koharu but worse. No offense to Koharu lol. But she's really improved a lot in this past year, and I'm quite happy that I no longer cringe when she sings. That's a definite improvement and I'm proud of her haha.

Ayumin might be experiencing the same singing while dancing problem Riho had at first. She was trained as a backup dancer prior to Momusu, so her technical ability is unmistakable, but singing and taking the front spot might be new to her. Give her a it of time, she'll get there. Haha.

On a side note, I would like to observe that even Aichan wrote in to Riho Deli to tell Riho that her singing is improving rapidly, so I'm not surprised that she's up there with Reina right now. Reina also mentioned that Tsunku often takes Riho aside for special vocal lessons during rehearsals, so that might account foe the speed of her improvement. They are intent on marketing her as their next ace, so grooming her seems a natural step to take. It might not be strictly fair, but it does make the others work harder to try and catch her. The others all think Riho is their rival lol. Can't be fun to be eyed like that all the time...

Post by: shirenuファクトリー on June 11, 2012, 01:40:12 PM
I guess I'm harsher then, I still cringe when Eripon sings, BUT IN A TOTALLY LOVING WAY!!! Her endearingly bad vocals are a part of the package. And if she gets better, that's only good. Kind of like Sayu. When it comes to vocals I really see Eripon as the 2nd Sayu, only Eripon can't get the Sayu-type lines yet because Sayu is still in the group and they can only have one Sayu, truly. (Note that in 1, 2, 3 both Sayu and Eripon got the "ru" bit though >_<)

Working on stamina is definitely important, yeah. Doesn't matter how good you are if you are constantly out of breath...

But "improvement" is tricky anyway. Of course you can always improve, but not everyone has room to improve that much. And it's even trickier because most members don't seem to get much training since they get picked. I'm always reminded of that time when Reina mentioned they were receiving proper vocal training for the first time since her audition for a musical that they did in... 2006? That's four years! It's ridiculous. Everyone is talking about improvement, but it's going to be painfully slow this way. How long can you just cling on to potential "if only __ and __ she would be a great singer"? IDK IDK.

Haha well I'm a wee bit more forgiving about bad singing, hell even Sayu's voice in all her autotune glory has grown on me :lol: I was actually greatly tickled by the Sayu/Eripon version of Rainbow Pink if only for the sheer rightness of the two worst singers doing this one song together. XD

I think it's telling that Riho is getting vocal lessons at all, and not only that, but from Tsunku personally. They must really be desperate to make sure she can hold the line by the time it's Reina's turn to graduate. I wonder if the stress isn't getting to the poor girl, but she seems to be quite mature about it and wanting to improve more so she can lead the rest. I sure hope the others get a chance to prove themselves too.

Loving the Limited B, D and F. XD Rokkies look awesome in their two-shot, 9th gen and their tea party (quick, someone write an Alice in Wonderland story!), and 10th gen looking good in their outfits. :D

I just realized how sneaky this release is. Someone will have to buy at least 3 singles in order to get each of the c/ws, and maybe at least one more to get a group shot (I assume that most fans like us will automatically gravitate to the "generation" single covers by default). A real wota will buy all 7, or 6 at least (the regular covers are nice, but no c/w kind of kills it.)

You know what would be really evil? Bonus content like photocards. That is how you reel 'em in, UFA. Photocards. Do eet! Prove me right! :lol:

DAMN!! How did I instinctively pick limited D, so happy :heart: Well I picked it because it doesn't come with a DVD... 8)

But limited F with 10ki is gorgeous, too... Damn look at Haruka sporting that hairstyle with a hat... So precious! I hope they have more photos coming out with these outfits because I really like them D:

Definitely a sneaky release like Estrea said :lol:

Really digging the covers that feature the different generations, the covers with all of them though I'm not liking too much. Very sneaky release as people had mentioned with the different members on different covers. Hoping these great covers will mean a good full PV.

I saw the entire Dance Shot version of "One Two Three" for the first time in New Jersey (the concert hall was showing off the latest single from all the H!P acts right before the concert), and hearing it a few more times throughout the weekend it's quickly becoming one of my favorite all-time Momusu songs! The computerized effect on the whole thing kinda seems like too much at times, but the general funky/hip-hop/dance-pop rhythms, epic sports-arena-type organs, and call/response chorus are easy ways to win me over.

Two things stood out for me with "The Matenrou Show":
1. Disco is always a nice reliable fallback for H!P, so it's good to see them try it out again, though it's not quite the same as past Dance Man tracks. Still, I'm definitely liking both A-side songs.
2. Did they just quote AKB's "Heavy Rotation" in the chorus??? :lol: Yeah, I know that's not the first time a song had lyrics like that, just a funny observation on my part.

I wonder if those Limited covers featuring single generations are indicative of what kind of song the B-sides will be...

By the way, still greatly disappointed that this release won't be making any references to that Indonesian movie. :P

I confess that I didn't really like the Matenrou SHOW when I first heard it. :lol: But after listening to it a few times again today, it has definitely grown on me. I'm also trying to pay attention to who sings and the demands of the vocals. It struck me how far Riho has improved O_O 3 singles ago she was still flat and horrible on recorded versions (while improving with every new performance, it got so bad that I had to rip the live audio because it was sad to listen to the cd version).

I must also confess to being a diehard Riho fangirl, though there are signs that Eripon might end up being my kami-oshi, so always take my opinions about Riho with a pinch of salt. :P She still has a long way to go to hit Reina's level admittedly, but I'm confident she'll get there (maybe even surpass her? who knows?).

I certainly hope the Matenrou SHOW will have a worthy PV, but I'm not holding out too much hope, because hope in the H!Pverse is a foreign, fragile thing that is too easily shattered. :lol: I like the song, that will have to do. I can only keep my fingers crossed to hope for good choreography, to limit any expectations I might have. XD

Another hope to have: please be on as many variety shows to promote the new single as possible! It's the 50th! DO SOMETHING. XD

All covers are quite good, except for perhaps Limited C which is a little plain compared to the others, but wow Limited F is gorgeous. And how in hell did they make Masaki look so prim and mature?
I love the regular cover too.

Ah, Daishi's smile was already a lot less distracting at 2nd watch, and she actually has several expressions in this MV which is nice 8) Variation for the win~

Eripon is serious business throughout, but she also has a lot less face time (at least it feels that way)...

HMMM time for a new H!P edgic?? Dunno how to categorize the dance shots though...

I miss Risa and Aika so much, but this "new" Momosu is also very, very good. I really love the 10th gen. They are all so pretty <3<3

I love this single, it's awesome! The music, the idol-y costumes, the hair. haruka looks a bit like a doll in some shots. Her new haircut is good. 
Pure awesome song paired with really good single covers and PV.

 I really do hope they can keep this level of awesomeness for singles to come. I don't want the low level of Ambitious! Yashinteki de Ii Jan or the Kimagure Princess. The songs were good, but ooooh the covers. >_<

^ I still stand by my comment that risa would have rocked this single so hard lol but meh lol

I liked it. Though the creative team did kind of go apeshit crazy with the sparkly effects. More of a weird acid trip than an MV at some points ahha but I just dismiss it as momusu style these days ahha I'm pleased, but like other fans, i felt like they could have put their efforts elsewhere aside from the abuse on the sparkly effects xD the hyper-lens flare makes my inner photographer cringe.

Personal review.

Mizuki was probably the breakout winner in this single for jaw dropping shots, but everyone looked great. The yong'ins were pretty, the middlin's were beautiful, and the 6th gen leaders were gorgeous as always. Could use a bit more camera time for Eripon and Kanon, but still I think all of the members can be pretty pleased with this. I think the voice synth is used to good effect, and the sort of syncopated beat of the vocals is cool. And nice job to Riho on vocals!

Well, I watched the MV a few more times, and Daishi's smile still is not impressing me... maybe it's because she's my least fav member of Momusu as for now, despite her being a good dancer

Yes, i know, I read a lot hate towards it.

I'm not hating on the MV, I love it, it's just not that HUGE love that I had for those MVs I mentioned.
Those sparkles for me are okay, I guess I just miss their story MVs, or more creative scenes.
But I love this single overall (including PV, song, covers) so far.
I'm still waiting for the better version of "The Matenrou Show", and of course the MV.

Perhaps a bit overdone in the sparkles/flare department, but hey, some of us were asking for laser beams so I guess that's the closest we'll get to :P
The editing looks great though, as do all the girls' shots, and the doll - like theme is a good idea. And Ayumi's growing prettier :love: I knew she would be a beauty the moment she appeared on the auditions :love: :love:
Very good, UFA. You got an almost trifecta this time, the song's great and sounds better everytime I listen to it, the covers are gorgeous and the PV is unlikely to keep anybody indifferent (I find that's a good thing :lol: )
Also, someone please make a gif of Masaki at about 3:30. That girl has the looks of evil incarnated  :ph43r:

Haruna is so endearing because her dancing is so awkward...it's adorable, check her out.

Up Front going all out with the advertising:
(http://i45.tinypic.com/2h7fh9j.jpg)(http://i45.tinypic.com/17zcsl.jpg)
No surprise considering how big of a milestone it is to reach the 50th single.

All the talk of how Gaki would've done for "One Two Three" got me thinking about how Ai-chan would own it! :cry: But it's alright, she's had plenty of time in the spotlight, and this is the perfect opportunity to show off Momusu's newer talents with a kickass song.

As for the generation-based B-sides, they all sound decent but I like the 9th gen song the most out of the three--seems like the one I'd feel the least ashamed blasting loudly out of my car. :P And the fact that it's 9th gen that got that song feels like kind of a bonus.

So...this single gets released this week. Is there no video for "The Matenrou Show" yet??? Will it even get one? Perhaps being saved for the Single V? UFA still trying to secure the licensing rights to reference a certain movie?

Yeah, I'll shut up about that movie now

EDIT: Special website for the single! Complete with video interviews! Zukki does a Commodore Perry impersonation!

I'm glad that they're actually giving this single special promotion 8) Of course I was hoping for fan efforts as well, but I haven't really heard of anything. Come to think of it, imagine there was a video of fans around the world just saying the name of their favourite Morning Musume single. Unfortunately this single is already being released tomorrow, so I think it might be too late.

Wow, that's an awesome ranking! Great job to all the fans who supported the single and the girls for working so hard  :thumbup Now that they've beaten Yamapi's new single on the first day, I can't wait to see how desperate they'll get to boost his sales.

Here's hoping that Tsunku gives them similarly challenging material after this.

HOOOOOOLY SHIT! GUYS!

I was walking around Shibuya yesterday and I noticed MM had an event at tower record. I asked for the details in broken Japanese and I learned I had to come back today at 10 AM to buy the CD.

I woke up super early, arrived more than two hours in advance... and of course, MASSIVE CROWD already. DOH.
I asked around to the people next to me in line and they said our spots should be fine. After waiting close to three hours I managed to buy a cd and get a ticket! 7 hours later, I lined up again, crazy heat today... tons of sweaty people everywhere. I finally arrived at the venue, which is the cellar floor of the Tower records building. I had a pretty high number, but I was glad I managed to get in at all. I was standing at the 10th row, but I'm much taller than the average Japanese person so that was no prob.

It was the 123 release event with all 9th and 10th gen members!

They came out, they are so tiny and precious! They were supposed to perform one song, but they did:
- 123
- Renai Hunter
- Pyoko
- Talk
- 123 again
- Talk
- HANDSHAKES!!! OMGZOMG!!!

They were surprised to see a foreigner lmao, but most of them were super cool. Most impressive girls to me were Sayashi (red), Fukuchan (pink) and ...Kudo? The short haired one. Super cute.Kanon (green) was least impressive imo. She looked tired and spaced out.

Two things I noticed if I may compare MM to other idols I have met:
- What bugged me was that they don't pay attention to each other during MCs. When a girl talks, the others don't really listen and talk among themselved. It lacks interaction and team spirit.
- Compared to other idols, they have a strong handshake! They actually squeeze your hand quite hard. Very cool, didn't expect that from these tiny precious looking girls.

The live was epic btw. They definitely got that down. New era MM is looking good.  :yep: Sayashi/Fukuchan two top for sure.

Went to McDonalds afterwards to celebrate yet another great day in Tokyo.

Somehow the idea of you celebrating by going to McDonalds amuses me. :lol: But that's great that you got to see them and that you're digging the new members and new single!

Too bad about Kanon, though. :( There's been lots of talk about how she isn't feeling well mentally and how subdued she's been lately, though personally I think it's just fatigue from all the work that's been going on for the group...and from the looks of things, there's still a lot more work to be done!

The single dropped to #4 for the second day (Yamapi finally took #1 XD ), but in a way it's not too surprising given the competition this week.

Oh yeah, and I actually ordered a copy! When it comes to music I usually skip singles and prefer to buy albums instead, but all the hype/buzz (as well as having some credit at YesAsia waiting to be used) inspired me to get the Limited C version. It should be coming in next week.

^The dance is so...so retro. :lol: I feel like I just got transported back to the 80s. :lol:

On another note, cheap UFA bastards are cheap. Reusing the same dance set? Seriously? For the 50th anniversary single? *shakes head*

And here I was hoping for a cooler PV. Ah well. Maybe they should shoot a dance shot on the streets or something o_o That'd be something.

If I had a say in how The Matenrou Show was supposed to look like, I would go for a darker background to juxtapose against the brightness of One Two Three. And definitely changing the outfits. For once, Momusu, do street-casual. 80s dance club...sure. Just don't give them the hair and the bell bottoms and I'm cool with that. XD Besides, paying attention to the lyrics of TMS makes me cringe. Why are you making tweens sing this?! "Do it to me baby"? Seriously? *facepalms* Maybe it's the standard Engrish, but still. :lol:

Just my two cents lol.

I feel cheated that they called it The Matenrou Show and there wasn't a single skyscraper  :P Seconding Estrea's comment about street casual clothes as a possibility, too. Oh well, I suppose they spent all their extra money on the Shibuya ad and I can't fault them for that decision.

I also want to add that they've done street shots before -- please see Nanchatte Renai. Sure, there wasn't a coherent story narrative but it was a change from the "HI GENERIC DANCE SET DRAPED WITH RANDOM OBJECTS". At least they had a warehouse (prolly the same one in Resonant Blue, just lit up and with more crates and furniture) or even the abandoned building feel. XD

It wouldn't hurt to switch things up a little, seriously. Make them dance on a bloody rooftop if you have to. A carpark! A park! Anywhere but the damn studio with generic objects in the background! :lol:

I have little tolerance for whining about cheapness, I'd rather talk about what I liked about the dance!

The RR21 move was obvious, but did you notice some of the others?
I saw moves from The Peace, Souda! We're Alive, Kono Chikyuu, Iroppoi Jirettai, 3 2 1 Breakin' Out, and probably several others I can't remember right now.
I watched it a few more times just to see if I could identify some more!

Plus I couldn't keep my eyes off Fukuchan! She was owning the dance as usual!
Seriously, if you're hung up on the set and costumes being the same, you're missing out.
I dunno about you, but when I'm watching Morning Musume, I'm watching Morning Musume.
So lighten up and have some fun!

Eripon looked like she was having the time of her life! And wow, Haruna really hates those curtains. :lol: Awesome filename for the video, by the way.

Another thing that should also be pointed out: it's the Dance Shot. Not saying the regular version is guaranteed to have tons of money/changes behind it, but it says right there in the beginning in English what to expect. "One Two Three" had its Dance Shot version released first too, in case you forgot. Of course, maybe this means they'll throw in some last minute CG buildings or something. :P

I feel cheated that they called it The Matenrou Show and there wasn't a single skyscraper  :P
Indeed...it seems that we're actually 9 years overdue for a skyscraper...

They did already, though it would be nice if they did it again:

Well I am a bit baffled because Kono Chikyuu/Kare to issho ni had obviously different types of MVs and different sets of outfits, so they're obviously capable of doing it and just didn't now. Wut. I completely understand people being disappointed, especially since this is the 50th single. Being disappointed with the management doesn't mean a fan still can't enjoy this video for the girls... But there are times when you think, oh come ON, they could've done better. And I think this is one of those moments. :P

I apologize if I offended you with my grouchiness. XD I do love the song, and I already gave up with the whole cheapness value. There are still things that can be done on a shoestring budget though, just...ohwell. Not the right place to discuss this. :lol:

I suspect I will love this song in a concert. Everything about it screams CONCERT SONG!!!!! Now picture the whole wave of wota dancing and swaying from side to side with the girls. I can see it happening. Hell, I wanna be there. :lol: They can't really capture the energy level on video, so yeah...part of Momusu's charm is their energy when performing live. I miss going to one of their concerts!

The sales sound amazing ("they've already outsold all of their singles since 2004") because I became a fan in 2004. :lol: Whoa. I know this single selling better than they have for years doesn't mean that they will continue to sell better, but I'm still dying to say the following sentence...

...... I thought Morning Musume was supposed to be a "sinking ship"? :P :P :P


I've been told that basically since I became a fan. I'm going to embrace this moment of "neener neener" to max effect.


Reina and Riho still sound better live than their roboversions, IT'S CRAZY XD

So instead of "neener neener", shouldn't us fans embrace the possibility of the revival/return of the "1997-2004 Joshi Kashimashi Monogatari" Age of glory :twothumbs

Is H!P competing with itself this week???
http://solidforce.co.jp/?p=623 (http://solidforce.co.jp/?p=623)
According to this article/blog thingy, long-time H!P/Momusu single arranger Hideyuki "Daichi" Suzuki did the arrangements for both the Yamapi and Super Girls singles that are charting right now! You may remember Daichi from such hits as "Do It! Now", "Koko ni Iruzee", "Go Girl Koi no Victory", "Resonant Blue", and "Onna ga Medatte Naze Ikenai", tackling a variety of music genres and styles along the way.

But I think this is Kaoru Okubo's year now. His (or her? Kaoru sounds like a girl's name) past works, the likes of "Naichau Kamo", "Kimagure Princess", "Seishun Collection", etc. have been hit with mixed reactions and relatively low sales...but now he can also claim fame for his involvement with the buzzworthy "Cho Happy Song" mashup and "One Two Three" getting lots of love from fans en route to being the highest-selling Momusu single in nearly a decade. As much as I've wanted Dance Man to return to the fold, perhaps I can wait a little bit longer...

The emphasis should be on "was supposed to" ;)

"sinking ships" can revive, you know :D

So instead of "neener neener", shouldn't us fans embrace the possibility of the revival/return of the "1997-2004 Joshi Kashimashi Monogatari" Age of glory :twothumbs
I personally think it's still a bit too early to be celebrating a full-fledged return to glory, that we should wait how the next single or two perform as a more solid indicator of success...but considering how certain people (you know who you are), both here and elsewhere, JUST WOULDN'T SHUT UP about Morning Musume being dead in the water with no hope at all as if they want to see H!P crash and burn, I'm totally okay with fans feeling the need to counter-gloat. :P People lined up to see the Titanic sinking, instead they rose up from the ash like a phoenix...

That's just the daily ranking for 7/7, actually (it lists 6098 copies sold). We'll probably find out the sales for the last day in a few hours and the final weekly ranking shortly after.

EDIT: 3,856 for Sunday (ranked #2), bringing the total to 98,703! But I think we still have one more day before the weekly total is finalized. Unless something ridiculous happens, we're all but guaranteed to see Momusu's first six-figure opening week in ten years!

[HD] 昨日のモーニング娘。イベント 中澤裕子が激励 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUYV1iu4cAU#ws)

Quote from: Tokyohive
On July 8th, Nakazawa Yuko made a guest appearance at Morning Musume’s release event for their latest single, “One・Two・Three / The Mantenrou Show“.

Wearing a long white dress that hid her pregnant stomach, Nakazawa smiled as the crowd called out, “Yuko!” and “Congratulations!” When asked if her baby (if a girl) would be joining Morning Musume in the future, she answered, “I’ve never thought about it, but if they will be long-lasting, it’s possible.”

Nakazawa expressed, “Lately, I feel the baby moving inside of me. I’m a little uneasy since I will be giving birth at an old age, but I’ve been talking about it with other moms who were in the same situation.“ She also shared, ”Recently, I saw Mikitty’s [Fujimoto Miki] baby at the office. It seemed difficult. When I saw her breast-feeding, I thought that’s how I’m going to be. I’m reassured to have a senpai mama.”

“One・Two・Three / The Mantenrou Show” is Morning Musume’s 50th single, and it celebrates the 15th anniversary of their debut. Nakazawa reflected, “I was reckless. 15 years ago, some members that weren’t even born yet!” She continued by telling the members, “In the past, I hated being called mom, but now, I’m almost a mom. Everyone is like a daughter to me, so I am supporting you.”

Nakazawa encouraged the newest leader Michishige Sayumi, saying, “Shige-chan, I think it’s really difficult, but please overcome this pressure. It will be okay! I am cheering you on!” In response, Michishige broke out into tears and hugged Nakazawa.

When asked about being a leader, Nakazawa advised, “I think there were all kinds of leaders, but you don’t have to copy somebody to be a good leader. Hold onto your heart, and do your best with Reina. Don’t cry!” Then she said to the fans, “Also, everyone’s power. Things really change with everyone’s support, so please take care of them!”

FIRST WEEK: 100,598
https://twitter.com/hisaka2u/status/222505243689226240
An awesome combination of quality music, fresh new faces, and one hell of a promotional push by management, and this success comes as no surprise! Even though tough competition meant only snagging a #3 ranking, I think we can all agree that 100k is a more significant number to achieve. More important than 50 consecutive top 10 singles, which you know they were gonna snag eventually; a strong showing on a list that many people still place in high regard serves as a reminder that Momusu and H!P are still relevant. Don't call it a comeback, they've been here for years.

Shit, just looking at that initial sales number at the time of release...already impressive sales for one day! Seeing this kind of success is like a bright ray of light in midsummer, though it comes as no surprise with such ambitious promotion. While the general buying public can be fickle-minded princesses when it comes to purchasing idol music, one has to admire this victory. For years many Momusu fans have asked why can't these girls stand out, and many critics thought we've been witnessing a sad twilight to their existence, but I wish I can see the look on their faces now when they realize that this just might be a revolution instead. Of course, maybe the boost in sales is merely a fake love for a trendy-sounding song...all I can say, my dear boy, is that in an industry where the fleeting nature of success can feel like a big fish that got away, where having top dog status is as fragile as a soap bubble, this scrappy group of noisy girls still manage to hold on to relevance no matter what kind of unexpected contradictions come their way. They're more than just a bunch of helpless dream chasers...that's right, they're alive. Seeing this single sell so well makes me want to open a shop with someone to sell even more copies, but until then only you can add this to your own collection. I mean, damn, to realize that they've reached 50 singles and are still going, I think I might cry...and I have a feeling the tears won't stop after school​. It's definitely a happy summer this year, a great memory for the light of our youth.

A bit of a long rant there, but I just had to do it now. I got some other stuff to say about this single, but I'll get to that later...until then, peace out!

It’s the big 5-0 for Morning Musume! Their new release One Two Three marks the iconic Idol group’s 50th single. It’s been nearly 15 years since Tsunku♂ put this little girl group together, and while the faces and the music have changed, Morning Musume has arrived at this landmark in style.

Second week ranking was #12 with 5,743 copies! (and interestingly, they beat Sexy Zone's record for lowest selling 2nd week for a single that sold over 100k)

Single V details: to be released on the 25th of this month, title only lists One Two Three so maybe we'll get a separate Matenrou Show single V some day :P

I haven't really been around here in ages, but I have to say this is my favorite Morning Musume single since...god...Kanashimi Twilight, maybe? I hope Tsunku can keep it up and give MoMusu a good streak of singles (with good sales, natch).

Just...give some lines to girls other than just Riho and Reina, please?

Still ranking after all this time!  :thumbup Maybe the single will get another boost now that the girls appeared on a popular show like Waratte Iitomo.

Additionally, One Two Three has officially outsold Ai Araba.
