It seems that JapanFiles.com have the entire album for downloads for $10.00. I think it's a great and cheap way for me to show my support, better than ordering the album and upcoming singles from japan and shipping it over to the US, which cost like $30-50 US dollars. of course I wouldn't be able to have all the goodies that came with the CD, like the booklet and DVD, etc...

but before I decide to do so, I just wanna know about all the other sites that I can download Morning Musume/H!P singles and albums online. And which one would really help support them.
and cost would also be a factor, cuz I want to get the best price and still supporting MoMusu. And also something that also help promote Morning Musume, like this many downloads on this site and help with their exposure throughout the net and here in America.

Sadly. I must say I'm somewhat disappointed. -__-;;
Not with the girls or their voices, they all sound great.

But the songs...... o__O
I was expecting this to be epic but I am nooot thrilled now that I got it.

It's You / Sayumi
Ok, she sounds great and the song is not that bad but seriously. I can't listen to it without getting the picture of Garth dancing from Waynes World in my head. It's f-ing creepy. ><

Turn on the refrain and turn this video on

Ame no Furanai hoshi dewa Aisenai Darou
I LOVE this song... originally.
wth? This version sound waaay to overdone. We know it's an epic song they don't have to try to raise the epic level more with EPIIIC~ music.
I can barley hear Jujuns solo over the loud music. T__T

SONGS
I loved this song and still. But it's only thrilling in the beginning.
When the second verse starts I'm bored, it's everything over again. =S this might be my problem though. =P

Jounetsu no Kiss wo Hitotsu
=S
Do not like it. IMHO it's really boring. And might not even do as a album-split up. So as a group song it's a shame. =S

Havn't listen to Kamei solo much yet so I can't say if it's bad (but it sound somewhat boring)
I think the only track that satisfy me (and I'm usally not this picky) is Watashi no Miryoku ni Kizukanai Donkan na Hito. Mitsui! You rule this album!
(Again, the girls are perfect. I blame the songs)
Guruguru JUMP & Take off is now are pretty nice.

Also only 8 songs? If they are going to have that many splits there should be more tracks. ><

this album tries to be generate a cool mature sound, that i think is not associated with the overall MM image. you would think that the new songs would be more happy-go-lucky type of songs to compensate the past 'serious' singles. nonetheless, the overall impression of the album is a nice result of trying out the cool and groovy side of MM. BTW , Songs reminds me of Maki's 'how to use loniless'. The build up , the style of arrangement, etc. probably the same arranger.

I listen to the album and like it for the most part. Not much to add about the known songs on the album except that I still like it.
-I do like Eri's solo, it sounds cute and refreshing, relaxing, even more so with Eri's voice. She's really improved with her vocals. I LOVE IT! her voice seems to really fit this kind of music, but I do hope she would improve more and be able to sing different kinds of music, so that she's could challenge herself and be even better than before. But I do love cheerful, upbeat songs like this songs.
-I also like SONGS and Take Off is NOW!, it's different and kind of have a hip-hop feel to it. though not exactly a great Hip-hop piece I would say, but it's fun to listen to and stuff.
-Jounetsu no Kiss wo Hitotsu, is a nice r&b piece. I like it. I think it's similiar feel to Do It! Now, but better.
-Watashi no Miryoku ni Kizukanai Donkan na Hito is a fun song, really cheerful and genki. I would like to listen to it, only I'm not quite estatic over Mitsui Aika's voice.
-GuruGuru Jump is really poppy, genki and fun. but I'm not really a fan of Kusumi Koharu's voice. LinLin is good as always, and JunJun is okay.
-Michishige Sayumi's It's You is a nice song and it seems she had improved a little, but I don't think her voice suits this kind of song. for the song itself... I don't hate it, but I'm not liking at the moment anway...

JapanFiles has a direct contract with UFA for all of the H!P artists on our website, so royalties go directly back to UFA for all digital sales.

Plus, if sales are good enough, that helps us move forward with USA releases of CDs and other H!P merchandise.
Whether through our website or CD purchases from overseas, please support these artists in any way you can.

Oricon: Platinum 9 Disc debuts at the 10th spot

Well, with all this talk about H!P and JapanFiles.com for the past week or so, I actually open up an account and bought the $10 album download anyway. I'll probably gonna spend more there (when I can) so I can support them. Though I'd really love to buy the CD and all the other goodies that came with the CD, i.e. booklet, postcard, picture, DVD, etc., but it just cost too much at the moment and I don't have that expenses. I didn't mind, as long as I'm supporting Morning Musume and Hello! Project, whether it's paid download or physical products, still supporting.
I would love for JapanFiles.com to start selling physical CDs w/ booklet, DVDs, etc., like they do in Japan. Also, merchandise, like a phone strap, t-shirts, pictures, postcards, glowsticks, etc. like the Hello! Project stores in Japan. that would be awesome. THEY SHOULD DO THAT! definitely would make them, JF and UFA, more money and grow some awareness in USA.

So far, fan support for the H!P digital catalog has been really strong. Digital sales are the most important part of making a CD release happen. If sales stay high, we may be able to pull off a CD release before Anime Expo.

Our official H!P merchandise store is in the planning stages now. We'll have an update on that around the time of Anime Expo as well. (*And our staff REALLY wants those phone straps!)

Thanks to all of you for your support of MM and H!P. JapanFiles has a direct partnership with them (no middlemen) so they are really paying attention to see how the fans in the west support them in these next few months!

I WANT that tour T-shirt! I can actually wear that out without being stared at!

Lol.

I almost bought the shirt and the poster... but then I remembered the exchange rate and forgot about it

All the goods look AWESOME and especially love the symbolism of the world in 9... you go girls!

CrypticShadow8 · « **Reply #52 on:** March 21, 2009, 05:00:00 PM »

So basically in this concert everyone has a solo except Koharu and JunJun (though Kousui usually ends up being pretty much a solo)

10. It's You (Michishige Sayumi solo, Takahashi Ai & Kamei Eri as backup dancers)

How is anyone supposed to pay attention to Sayu with THOSE two dancing around

cool_kickin_dude · « **Reply #53 on:** March 21, 2009, 05:02:16 PM »

I listened to the whole disc yesterday and like it! here's my picks.

Eri's solo song is one of my favorites on the album. She really can sing!

Take off is NOW!, Ame, and Guruguru are a close second for me. I liked Sayu's solo..she can sing, the music was off is all

Other than that, definitely a album worth getting

I'm so going to get the Koharu concert shirt for my birthday

HELL YEAH this sounds like a very interesting perfonmance

Kamei and Ai dancing with Sayu as backup doing some vocals

(lol j.k)

i wonder if Kousui will be an alternated solo, i mean in one performance JunJun lead almost all the vocals and viceversa... you know, like Reina and the kids in H!P concert.

ps: japanfiles avatar rules o/

Ok well I just listened to a fan recording of Kousui and Koharu sang the first half of the song and then JunJun sang the second half. It sounded good.
