Is that Koha who sings the first line? She sounds so different

I'm fairly sure. At first I thought it was Risa though.

Hmmm, not horrible or anything, but it hasn't got me hooked yet.

It definitely has a Sakura Mankai feel to it. Only I liked Sakura Mankai more ><

got originally from here but edited because of inaccuracies

Lyrics thus far:

Romaji:
Kusumi Koharu . Abe Natsumi . Iida Kaori . Niigaki Risa . Goto Maki

onaji yo sora no hoshi wo mi ageta
haruka tooku ni omoi yo se
mata shiranu tomo ni ae sou na
[iida/niigaki] shirukuroodo susumou
tomo ni hakemashi
tomo ni nakaete
tomo ni kokoro wo kayouse
kazoku no you ni ikite yukeru sa
kizuna mou kitto deteru sa
mannen iukikau kono michi ni
subete no kibou ga tsumatteru
mannen dare ka ni tsutaete ku
fushiga na miwaku my asia
bokura ga ikiru my asia

Japanese:
久住小春 . 安倍なつみ . 飯田圭織 . 新垣里沙 . 後藤真希

同じ夜空の星を見上げた
遥か遠くに想い寄せ
まだ知らぬ友に会えそうな
[飯田/新垣]シルクロード進もう
共に励まし共に称えて
共に心を通わせ
家族のように生きてゆけるさ
絆もきっと出来るさ
万年行き交うこの道に
全ての希望が詰まってる
万年誰かに伝えてく
不思議な魅惑　MY ASIA
僕らが生きるMY ASIA

Translation:
Looking up at the same starry night
Sending my thoughts to the far distance
Like meeting friends that you never met
Moving forward in the silk road

Together encouraging and praising each other
Together linking our hearts
Living together like a family
Surely a bond will form

In this crossroad of ten thousand years
Uniting our hopes together
Convey it to someone for ten thousand years
My Asia, a strange fascination
My Asia, where we live...

After reading the lyrics, the thought just struck me that this song could have political undertones; just like 'LOVE Machine' seems to have been a nationalistic song designed to cheer up Japan, 'MY ASIA' could be designed to inspire Japan to welcome more foreigners into Japan to boost its economy...

A few more listens after I calmed down about other stuff and the song is growing on me.

It's making me look forward to hearing a full version, I'd like to see what other lines the members all get. *doesn't expect too much for Risa*

Wow, I hope people actually interpret it as that...yay for international relations and a possible hit in the essence of LOVE Machine...

but then, her 2nd line...

anyways..the song reminds me alot of, Furusato...
i think,it's one of the songs that needs to grow on you

..

but hey, let's wait for proper listening

It's a typical ballad, for sure, but the music arrangement is really pretty and I'm sure the PV will be just as nice!

Goto's vocals are perfect, as always

I love this song

jafeijai · « **Reply #311 on:** January 03, 2007, 02:52:22 AM »

it's funny how I was listening to Sakura Mankai right before I listened to the preview, and I'm liking the similarities!

I've always been more of a ballad fan rather than a fan of the upbeat songs, so this song has already got me sold. And I'm sure the full version will be that much better~:heart:

[chants] We want PV! We want PV!

well there should be a PV for this song, well i'm hoping for it!, since the First Press Limited Edition doesn't come with a DVD, so me guessing that it'll come seperately?

Edit: and yes i love this song, its has that sakura mankai feel that made me love MoMusu so much more that i have now alrdy!

wakaba_doll · « **Reply #313 on:** January 03, 2007, 03:24:42 AM »

There *BETTER* be a PV for this song! How they could put so many awesome girls in a unit and *NOT* make one, ne?

LOL

I really like the preview. Enough that I don't even care that it's not dancy. Very nice indeed

shadowstar · « **Reply #316 on:** January 03, 2007, 07:56:42 AM »

I don't know what crack other people are on, but I think it's a great ballad!

At first listen, I already like it, and trust me; when it comes to ballads it usually takes me a few listens or more to like it.

Koharu's singing has definitely improved, it still needs more work, especially holding notes, but she's gained much more control over it which is good! And well of course, the rest sound perfect as usual, Risa did well too!

It's quite easy to tell their voices apart actually, especiall Goto's and Koharu's.

DroolBoy · « **Reply #317 on:** January 03, 2007, 08:02:43 AM »

I really love the classical sound :]

I'm aching for Juunen Ai and the PV preview!~

I hope H!M has some sort of CM for it soon!

kingthaking81 · « **Reply #318 on:** January 03, 2007, 10:08:53 AM »

great preview. THey could have used other oriental instruments though than the ones used in sakura mankai/.
can't wait for lives,PV,single!

I really like the preview! The song sounds nice. I LOVE Sakura Mankai, and while this isn't quite as good, it still sounds like a nice song. Can't wait to hear the full thing. (And I really hope Kaori gets more lines...)
