My Melon Kinenbi story: Not much. I heard "This is Unmei" on Pucchi Best 2, then hunted down some vids on YouTube.
Favourite Melon Kinenbi member: Megumi Murata
Favourite Melon Kinenbi song: Seishun on the Road
Favourite Melon Kinenbi PV: Nikutai wa Shojikina EROS (I imagine this will be the answer to a LOT of these surveys.

)

Favourite Melon Kinenbi album: I don't own any, so I can't say.
Favourite Melon Kinenbi concert: Never watched one from beginning to end, so I couldn't say.
A memorable performance:

Other comments: I love the fact that they're the "indie" group within UFA, working with Midori and Beat Crusaders and the like. Who said H!P (and its offshoots) wasn't indie?

daigong · « **Reply #494 on:** January 05, 2010, 12:32:08 PM »

MELON KINENBI IS MY ALL TIME FAVE H!P GROUP!!!!! *

(that doesn't have Rika Ishikawa

(that isn't Morning Musume.)

QFT

There isn't a single H!P concert that could not be made better by adding Melon.

My Melon Kinenbi story: While I vaguely liked MK before, I really got into their stuff when I heard This is Unmei in a H!P concert a few years ago. It's a totally awesome song!!
Favourite Melon Kinenbi member: Ootani probably
Favourite Melon Kinenbi song: This is Unmei and other rockish wild songs
Favourite Melon Kinenbi concert: Not really a concert, but I liked that play that had Nacchi and Melon Kinenbi lolz. It was fun

daigong · « **Reply #497 on:** January 08, 2010, 06:38:58 AM »

My Melon Kinenbi story: I too stumbled upon them, never discovered them until probably Kosui. They were always in the midst of the H!P videos, like that 2000 in Hawaii episode, H!M Skits, etc. The KOSUI dropped and I was like damn who is this cutie in the car singing with these R&Bish type girls. Then I learned they were a "mature" group to Morning Musume's wildness. Track after track was GOLD. This is Unmei! Saa! Koibito ni Narou! Denwa Matteimasu! Fell in love with each member, esp. Shibata. How close they were to Rika. Like in this video

Favourite Melon Kinenbi member: Ayumi Shibata
Favourite Melon Kinenbi song: Akai Freesia (赤いフリージア)
Favourite Melon Kinenbi PV: hands down EROS. (WERD Mucca

)

Favourite Melon Kinenbi album: Fruity Killer Tune, lots of great non-single tracks as voted by me!!!
Favourite Melon Kinenbi concert: Christmas concert 2003, simple yet powerful

A memorable performance: I love this performance/dance. The whole "travel" call dance and the 4 people in row, rotate windmill style is

A picture that I like: This one is sooooo sexy.

A video that I like: besides all those comedy videos? There's a DVD Magazine that comes to mind where they do batting, darts, etc. But this video. THIS VIDEO ALONE!! Proves what a vocal prowess(tm)BOYTEN Melon Kinenbi are:

also big ups to ziggy for his work with jphip fansubs

Other comments: I'm so glad they are still making music, not going into Graduated obscurity. Still pound for pound the best H!P Group lineup in the business. If I could see them live, my life would be complete. Pimps like us babe.
