In a twist of fate that shocked even me, GYM's single fell to No. 2 on the Oricon daily charts, beaten out by the Kaoru Amane single from the popular dorama Taiyo no Uta.  Whether GYM will rise to No. 1 on the daily charts again or not will have to be seen.

Meanwhile, TOKIO's Sorafune/do!do!do! has risen from No. 4 back up to No. 3 on the Oricon daily charts despite already being on it's second week of release.

Wow. Johnny's not number 1 is shocking. But especially because it's Yamapi!

hmm... Somehow I'm not really very surprised. GYM, even with Yamap, seems to be the weakest unit to come out of Johnnys in recent times... >_<

Maybe they need a TV show/ movie to give them a power-up! :o Shuji & Akira had 'Nobuta wo Produce' and Toraji.Haji had 'Fantastipo'... ;)

^ I wasn't really excited about the release myself. And the song is kinda corny, but Mike's grown on me, and it's YamaP so... :heart:

And I don't think they need a TV show, they've got Volleyball right? xD

xD From the ratings I've seen it raking in... I wouldn't have expected to be at number 1. But hey, good for Sawajiri.

They're contracted to JE aren't they? I wonder if they will have any other Japanese releases of their own...

I don't think they will... GYM sold about 226k and that shows that no one cares a shit about Golf and Mike. It was just like a Yamapi single minus the Kurosagi factor plus two boring guys who most likely made people not buy instead of making them buy. Okay, maybe the song wasn't as good as Daite Senorita which was part of it too but...

I think I heard that they were gonna work with JE again after their 2nd album is out. There must be something about them that Johnny-san likes. :/

I just saw their family (dad, 2 older bors and their lil sis) on tv. I'm not a fan of them but their family was super cute.

I think Golf & Mike probably should just have some kind of intensive training in JE lol...  They sing well, but really lack charisma. And Mike can't dance. So yeah, they should be trained in idol-ness by Johnny~

tama, you don't think much of G&M? :P

I would like to have a listen of stuff that they released in Thailand. Watch and see what it is that they do. That would probably be the best way to see why Kitagawa likes them. I'm currently of the same mindset with Fuyumi in that G&M are kinda unremarkable and that the group sold what they did due to Yamap's popularity coz the single on the whole was:ONgyaaah:... >_<

Their stuff is not bad at all I think. Chatin showed me a lot of their thai singles and PVs and they were quite nice. I'll try to find some of them and post them here.

It was interesting to see them covering some T&T songs ^o^


EDIT:

I like their slow songs, not so much their more hip-hop-ish (or whatever they are) ones. These PVs are so cute.

Golf & Mike - Yah-len-bab-nee (PV)
[yt]D0DqqBtABV8[/yt]

Golf & Mike - Talok Dee
[yt]Dmg0Kk-0CAY[/yt]

Golf & Mike - Kae Krung Diew
[yt]j1GHFW1K8g0[/yt]


I hadn't seen this: :ONding:

GYM - Fever to Future (PV Making)
[yt]z7AXbVYiPXc[/yt]


Anyway, they're pretty boys, can sing, Golf can dance, and they already have their own fanbase in their country. I don't see why it's so hard to conceive for ppl that Johnny would want this kind of collaboration with them. He gets to sell a lot in Japan AND Thailand. If he got to sell a LOT, he could've made them release more stuff for profits, and if not, he just called them a one-shot special unit and forget it. No losses either way. In any case, he wins over new fans from Thailand. :ONbigdeal:
