[2010.10.27] AKB48 - 18th Single "Beginner"

[Meania]

Ahh, I see-- so it doesn't look like there'll be too much gore in the game world scenes? Ah well, I look forward to more previews!

Hahhh~ The way Haruna was strutting along before she got chopped..... It's like Onna Ga Medatte Naze Ikenai- WITH MURDER <3

[Bloo48]

The screams are funny Acchan 
And the sound is great! It is probably the single of the million?

"AKB48 new single, "Beginner" will have 6 patterns of dance formation. The center will be decided right on the performance with Takamina's hand signal (like volleyball formation). The centers are top 6 of senbatsu except Mayuyu + Jurina as double center."

[sasuke2233]

thanks for your information

[Meania]

Woah! I wonder what they'll do in the PV... rotate the groups or use Acchan as the regular center- Actually, thinking about it, rotating them during the pv would be a good idea as I doubt all versions of members versions will be released to buy... ; 3 ;
I hope they do plenty of tv and live performances while promoting Beginner then! I can't wait to see all the versions!~


So Jurina's getting a spot even though she's number 10 in the rankings? I wonder who won't get a spot... the top 10 Senbastsu members acording to the last vote and Suprise Mook released are:
1- Yuko  - Will most definetly get a center
2- Acchan - Will most definetly get a center
3- Mariko - Should get a center- she is third, but Mariko seems to miss out on things, so I won't be suprised if she doesn't!I'm keeping my fingers crossed though
4- Tomochin - She will probably will get a center, she's done Love Wars so that pretty much shows she could handle a lead
5- Mayuyu - Getting a center with Jurina
6- Takahashi  - She's deciding the formation, so perhaps not getting one? But she normally gets alot of lines and centers with Acchan so she could?
7- Haruna - I said I'm concerned Mariko won't get a center position and/or Takahashi might not, if so- dse should? She hada fairly long death seen as we saw in the pv preview... makes me think she could get one
8- Yuki  - Most likely won't get a ceter position.
9- Sae  - As much as I'd like her to, Sae most likely won't get a center position.
10- Jurina  - Getting a center spot even though she's 10th

My imediate reaction was shock at Jurina getting to share a Center lead even though other members rank higher than her- but then I realised Mayuyu is 5th so deserves her spot, and her and Jurina will look good together? But I'm sure Mayu could of handled to center on her own... she does so in Watarirouka Hashiritai, but perhaps they felt her vocal range is too high?
So, really all the Top 6 + Jurina should have a spot, but I could see that differing, especially due to Takahashi Minami being the one deciding who leads (might be bad to have the person deciding pick themselves on certain shows, or avoid picking themselves)

Edit: OAO; I'm not hating on Jurina or anything, if it comes off like that- I just feel like other members (Sae, Yuki, Haruna) could of been picked from to share a center with Mayu OAO

I doubt all versions of members versions will be released to buy... ; 3 ;

Actually, they will release clips of the different member versions!

The Type A DVD will feature:
         
4.Beginner Formation Movie （Yuko version）                 
5.Beginner Formation Movie （Mariko version）                 
6.Beginner Formation Movie （Jurina・Mayuyu version）

and the Type B DVD:
       
4.Beginner Formation Movie （Atsuko version）                 
5.Beginner Formation Movie （Itano version）                 
6.Beginner Formation Movie （Takamina version) 

But yeah, I don't see the need for more Jurina pushing. Just let Mayu do it.

So, really all the Top 6 + Jurina should have a spot

Yes, that's how they did it. The used the exact top 6 from the last election, so I guess that's fair. I wonder how the Takamina selection thing works though.

[Meania]

!! OAO;
Darn, I forgot about the formation movie- lol so no need for my rambling... I'd forgotten about those as I'd guessed they'd be something to do with the storyline of the pv! OAO

If it had been... say... Rena and Jurina- that would make sence (aside from them both not being in the top 6) but Mayu and Jurina aren't a pair you'd normally see together, right? Weird choice...

Well, that basically decides it for me- I'll be getting Type A for sure-- Type B is apealing with Acchan, Takahashi, and Tomochin, but not as much as Yuko and Mariko for me!! Though, if type B's other songs really appeal to me... I may have to get both OAO;

[sasuke2233]

why the beginner formation Movie (acchan version one) is inside the type B one?
need to buy all the version ar~~~
sure need a lot of money~~

THE.SONG.OF.THE.YEAR.

Epic song is EPIC. Song of the decade.

[maliciel]

Song of the year indeed.

Blows all of their other singles out of the water, imo. Disappointed the radio rip doesn't have Acchan freaking the fuck out, though.

Would anybody mind uploading this on a different download site (such as megaupload or 4shared) as I tried downloading and it wasn't working well for me... Made me allow popups and then the download wasn't starting correctly so I don't want to try it again OAO;

[Amplifier]

Shiet this song is awesome

There was actually a link to an MU upload there (that's what multiupload does; uploads the same file to various upload sites)

...And so, here's the Megaupload link from there

[Meania]

Ah! Thankyou, I just clicked the main/first download button I saw, and things started going funny on my laptop... ;;

I love this song! It feels a bit like they're going back to their darker style of songs- like Seifuku Ga Jama Wo Suru... obviously it's different but it gives me that feeling- like a more catchy, strong and slower version of Seifuku crossed with River!! ;  u ;
I can't wait for this!! I'm not even bothered about what the B-sides are now! Just really eager to see this PV, and even if the other tracks aren't the best imo, I'll still be getting this!

[Datalanche]

Hearing the full song puts my fears to rest. As expected, most of the instrumentals were inaudible from the initial crappy rips. It's pretty cool when you can hear everything.

Just hope the PV is a little balanced. Amazing as their appearance was in Heavy Rotation, I'd like to see the Matsui's and other members for more than four seconds.

[sasuke2233]

thanks for the megaupload file!!
beginner really nice..i like the way that singing...
very different!!!
