I love all the covers' designs (and Maa-chan/Miki center is just beautiful), but does it bother anyone else that idols seem to touch their faces ALL THE TIME. Especially the new ones. Ogata has the exact same pose in 4/6 of those photos. Same complaint with the video, haha. It's okay though. And it ...

4th Teaser: Ye Eun
 
Good grief she's beautiful. :D
 
Just 10 more days...

2nd teaser: Yubin
 
They're a lot better than I expected! I'm already excited to see how they do live.

THIS is why I love the Wonder Girls; no drama or backstabbing, just a really deep friendship that I hope will continue beyond this.

Well I knew Sohee couldn't come back because she had already left JYP. Maybe if Sunye decides to come back to the music industry she'll be able to pursue a solo career.
 
In other news...
1st teaser: Sunmi
 
Can't even contain my excitement. :D :D :D

Obviously we all knew that Sohee was gone for good, but now Sunye... should've seen it coming, but... I'm heartbroken to see my favorite go. :(

CHOICE & CHANCE MV
 
I love everything about this. Why can't we get more interesting PVs like this more often? You know, the kind that actually seem like they had a plan in mind before filming. :D And of course the song is great; perfect for a lead song.

[quote="TicTacAnyone"]
Not crazy about Tamerai Summertime, personally.. but it fits the overall idea/past of Country Musume.

Agreed. I do like seeing those pretty outdoor PVs though.
 
Music Video

Oh my wish! may sound like everything else, but I love it anyway. They definitely need to start experimenting with more sounds though.


Imasugu Tobikomu Yuuki is nice; I'll need to see a performance or PV for it before I judge, but so far I think it's okay. Not amazing, but good.

^ Well by ending I mean "in the process of ending"... we may have some electronic songs but they'll probably be fewer over the next several releases.

Well I guess this is proof that the electro-era is ending. (Otherwise known as the "Colorful Era", I guess, but I've never really liked that name.) Not crazy about the song yet, but it'll probably grow on me. I definitely don't like those outfits though.   The name "Oh my wish!" ...

^ Nope, it's all Korean/English.


I don't mind the song except for those "It's a party!" lines... oh my gosh they're so obnoxious. Otherwise I'm okay with it.

Taiki>Romance>Matenrou


I seem to remember people saying Taiyou to Ciscomoon had some "funky" songs but I haven't listened to them much so I can't think of any specific songs.

I'm already tired of all but Sally (coincidentally my favorite). Nanakorobi is pretty good I've just heard it a lot already. Gashin is kinda bland.

I kinda love how they keep making fun of Momoko for being "old", haha.

... I still think Maho and Kana are pretty terrible. :D
 
I don't really mind if a group has one or two bad singers, though. But any more than that is too much.

Comeback CF
 
A pre-release single AND double title track? Um, YES! ("You Think" looks so awesome.)

Wow, I never knew they had already filmed a 9-member version! I agree though, the dancing was a lot stronger/more in sync in the new version; I guess because they had practiced more by the time they re-filmed it. It must have been annoying to have to film the exact same thing over again... after the...

Abe Natsumi - Kaze wo Kanjite (MV)

 

I love her voice so much... it's so pretty!

 
Ciao Bella Cinquetti (THE Possible) - Futakotamagawa (MV)
Ciao Bella CInquetti - Never Never Give Up (MV)
 
Wow, this is one boring single.

^ Whaaaaat are you serious?? This could either be really awesome or really terrible. XD

I don't want Akari to leave but I have a feeling she will be next to go.

Dear God please let there be no winners. (Unless it's Kaede. At this point I'd be happy with her debuting anywhere.)

WONDER GIRLS ARE MAKING A COMEBACK!

http://www.soompi.com/2015/06/24/wonder-girls-confirmed-to-make-comeback-as-four-member-group-including-sunmi/


4 Members: no Sunye (sad...) but Sunmi will be re-joining.

It's gonna be weird seeing Wonder Girls with only 4, but I'm still excited!

Sadness. She has too much potential to be placed in ANGERME.
