^ Pretty good. I listened to this once and that "aki urara koi uraraka" part is stuck in my head already.

Edit: Better quality

Holy crap love.

At first I expected some sort of badass groovy rock, but somewhere it turned into disco-y R&B...without me even noticing.

Pretty fun track, disco MoMusu is always good, IMO. Definitely not one of those B-side's I'll be skipping over in Winamp.

It started out like something that could be interesting, but then it became Summer Night Town, but not as good.

NR started out as a song I didn't like all that much - It took a little while to grow on me. The PV and 26hour TV live finally made me like this song. Still lacks Linlin...but it's a pretty good song.

Anton_91 · « **Reply #109 on:** August 05, 2009, 02:28:01 AM »

This song is awesome, but as many have already pointed out I think it's alittle to much like SYO.
Now, SYO is not bad. It rocks.

But as other people I also think they should have done something more different as this is their 40th single.

But this single is very good =)) Hmm, release next week. Seems alittle late since their tv performances already have been a few days ago and it was long since the PV was released. But it's four versions so sales shouldn't be to shabby

For those on the fence about buying the single! CHECK IT.

An idea brought to me by aewen

she was like mmm. can MM really do it? tama+shi said. Why not? And I thought, why the fuck not. LET'S DO IT! It'd be fun. SO WE DID IT!! BLBLBLBLBLBL!

~aewen.comXjph!p.com present~

Pix by aewen, jacked cuz I know we down

She told me that Japanese fans have a plan to help Buy Morning Musume's latest single "Nanchatte Renai " [なんちゃって恋愛] and outsell Ayumi Hamasaki buy buying as many CDs as possible. I LIKE IT. The 2 Limited Editions are sold out. 2 More to go!

THE CATCH? Get it from HMV. Amazon. CDJAPAN. Or a friend in Japan. Cuz these count to Oricon Charts.

Contest Basics:
Quite simple really, purchase the soon to be released Nanchatte Renai single within the first week of it's release from CDJapan, Amazon.co.jp, HMV.co.jp, or any other place that supports Oricon sales. YESASIA does not count in Oricon sales.
To be eligible just one purchase is required but you know for the sake of this project....I recommend as many copies as you can possibly get. C'mon, sacrificing the cost of a meal or two for the girls isn't that bad is it? o_O

^ I was gonna wait till I went back to school and buy this off of Yesasia but I guess I'll go ahead and buy this soon off of cdjapan

BigDnm01 · « **Reply #112 on:** August 06, 2009, 07:07:57 PM »

I made my purchase @ CDJapan, with the LE B and 40th Ann. Singles. so that's 2 sales added to the list.
Ganbare Morning Musume! know that you girls have fans all over the world supporting you!!!

P.S. I would love for them to be #1, beating Ayu in the process, but as long as they have good sales and ranking, I satisified, plus Oricon ranking isn't all that important anyway.
btw, with them promoting the singles throughout the month like that, I would also like to see good rankings in the following weeks. since more people might get a chance to see them perform, maybe people will buy it over the month...

Yo Jimbo · « **Reply #113 on:** August 07, 2009, 12:10:24 AM »

^ I just hope that they're able to break at least 60k first week. Pretty lofty goal but I think there's a chance they could pull it off. Also, you have a pretty good point about NR's staying power. I hope that really is the case and maybe even have them top 10 for 2nd week. That'd be so wicked.

Also, it seems that as of right now, cdjapan is out of LE A and Amazon.co.jp is out of LE A and B. Pretty good sign right? Any, best of luck to them.

Did some quick checks, beating Ayu would probably mean around 100k in the first week, right? Honestly, I don't see that happening with this single.. BUT! If Ayu song doesn't catch on and sells around 70K, like 'talking 2 myself' did, and MM gets some extra sales due to their anniversary edition.. who knows what could happen.

BigDnm01 · « **Reply #116 on:** August 08, 2009, 12:44:45 AM »

Just wanna ask a question, maybe rhetorical. With the Single having 4 version, including the Special 40th Ann. Single, the sales for all the singles version will count together on the Charts right? usually Reg, LE A and B would all count together in the sales of previous singles.... so I might be asking a dumb question...

btw, Morning Musume and H!P aren't the only one that releases different version of the same singles, are they?

JFC · « **Reply #117 on:** August 08, 2009, 05:28:36 AM »

Whipped together a couple GIFs of the "windy" scenes from the PV where the girls wear the white outfits. Made them in greyscale to emphasize the lighting/shadow effect. Kinda artsy-fartsy, I know, but the whole wind blowing through the hair thing...

As long as the contents of the singles is the same they are counted together. The special 40th anniversary single has a different c/w I believe. So I think that one could be counted separately, but I don't know the exact rules Oricon enforces.

No, Johnny's Entertainment is particularly notorious for turning out many versions of their singles. Other artists/agencies do the same but to a lesser extent.

News from the sales battle front. The NINKI poll is out:
1. Hamasaki Ayumi 124.60 points
2. Morning Musume 72.30 points
3. DEATH DEVIL 64.00 points

Source: http://www.oricon.co.jp/rank/ns/

It looks like a big lead for Ayu, but the poll is only a statistical reflection of buyer intention. I don't know if or how it accounts for multiple copy buyers.

A big incentive for buying multiple copies is access to events. There are two "sales commemoration event" locations this time, one in Yokohama and one in Nagoya with each having 3 events. Buying the limited or first press editions gets you a "serial number card", which becomes a lottery ticket when you apply for the lottery at a special website. The draw of the lottery determines who gets a ticket to the event. So buying more singles gives you a bigger chance of getting an event ticket.

aki urara is not in it since this is the 40th anni edition. it doesnt really matter anyway, both c/ws arent that good imo.

nanchatte is giving my goosebumps though everytime i hear it
