[quote name='Kahoryn' timestamp='1368714971' post='151982'] Oh yeah and Tsunku♂ was a genius but that's nothing new. [/quote] Fixed it. Anyway, not trying to intrude so much, not being a girl and all, but this is interestingly slightly related to a similar question I've been researching lately that ...

[quote name='Molly' timestamp='1367725547' post='150944'] Her points are all dumb and invalid though. It's a solid song, a pretty video and talented an pretty girls.

[quote name='rob' timestamp='1367941917' post='151156'] MM being doomed was just a bad case of rose tinted glasses IIRC. Berryz being doomed is an ugly.... sad... depressing fact.

[quote name='Zaeleus' timestamp='1367605040' post='150876'] The title track for their third EP released yesterday: " Do You Want Some Tea? ". [/quote] Wow, this song is fantastic. I hope the rest of the album (mini-album? whatever) is as good as this, cause the 2nd one was a huge letdown. ...

[quote name='Haru' timestamp='1367422712' post='150612'] With five editions though the sales may be upthere. [/quote] You may be right, but I don't know if 5 is enough for H!P artists. Also LOL @ idols "working hard" when H!P does the same shit day in and day out the entire year. There's n...

[quote name='Rally' timestamp='1367527109' post='150786'] I'm loving these girls' voices! Karin and Tomoko are amazing!

Now the only one from 1st and 2nd gen who isn't married is Nacchi. And now Takahashi is supposedly getting married really soon. It's bound to happen eventually with all of 'em!

http://www.sharam-q.com/news/news20130425_1.html Welp, SharanQ just announced they're releasing a "new" single! If you're wondering why the quotes are there, its because its just a goddamn re-recording of Single Bed. I'm curious if they're going to change it much or not, but at least its a...

This is so disappointing from them, but still better than anything else H!P has put out since early last year. The Asia thing is getting a little old and I feel like they're just getting into a rut now that they may not recover from. Here's to hoping, but they're getting old and losing lots of pedo ...

[quote name='JPope' timestamp='1366128192' post='149612'] I really like the album, but their lack of singing talent is becoming really frustrating for me. It wasn't as big of a deal when they were just doing over-the-top ridiculousness, but their crappy voices just kill the more serious/epic stuff. ...

[quote name='JPope' timestamp='1363625177' post='147275']

This is one of the most interesting J-idol releases since Nakata Yasutaka refined Perfume's sound around 2006.

[/quote]

Out of how many idol groups that you listen to? 4?

Rock no Teigi has an embarrassingly awful arrangement, very much like most of their recent music. Its hard to listen to those grating synths. The progressions and melodies are as boring and typical as you can get for Tsunku electro-crap. Tokimeku Tokimeke was amazing until they started singing the v...

[quote name='rob' timestamp='1363306477' post='146893'] I believe you said "If I don't like something, I just move on" earlier in this thread... but... you're still here! Move on already ! We get it, you don't like H!P anymore!![/quote] I have moved on, I'm not listening to the song anymor...

[quote name='Pucchi mo' timestamp='1363363153' post='146948'] I noticed that they each have solo versions of the single on their designated special editions, so at least the girls who are pushed into the background can be heard if someone buys their version.

[quote name='showraniy' timestamp='1363292635' post='146858'] I'm new to the whole C-ute thing and only started paying attention to them with Kimi wa Jitensha, but... am I the only one who really seriously can't stand Chisato's hair? She's looked so off to me for the last few releases, so I google i...

[quote name='Star' timestamp='1363207376' post='146761'] Let me just say that I didn't mean that you should lower your expectations to like the song. I meant if you don't like it, just accept that its not a good song in you opinion, and move on instead of complaining about it. [/quote] Critiquing so...

This song is pretty great, though the line distribution is WEIRD. I'm not a big Aina fan, though she's not bad, she's probably my least favorite voice in the group, so the first half of the song is a little off-putting. The song is fun as hell though and stays good throughout. Not quite as good as N...

Besides the limited A being way too try-hard, the rest of these are surprisingly great for H!P!

[quote name='Star' timestamp='1363143583' post='146678'] Liking it and accepting it are two different things, and you can choose do whichever you please. If I don't automatically like a song, I just accept it and move on. My point was to not expect something that was Golden or Platinum Era from the ...

[quote name='Star' timestamp='1363142597' post='146671'] My point is (and I don't mean to insult or offend anyone) just lower your expectations and everything will be fine. [/quote] Lowering your expectations to enjoy something from a group just because you liked them before is exactly that: trying ...

It seems people are trying REALLY hard to like this song. Why would you try so hard to like a song? This song is honestly more listenable and less infuriating and grating than Barnstorming, but is so under-produced, uncohesive, and boring that I just can't understand what there is to like here. The ...

[quote name='yuzuriha' timestamp='1363110548' post='146603'] http://youtu.be/tiX22vnR-SU Everything about this screams Eva to me. I am literally getting chills right now. [/quote] Eva what? Are you talking about Evangelion? I don't see it at all. The song is pretty amazing, though, I'm even more int...

That trailer is fucking awesome. I love those no face outfits. I hope this album is half as good as Saraba was <3

That dance is embarrassingly bad, haha. I also still can't stand Airi or Chisato, but the other shots in the PV besides the try-hard dance are actually pretty nice. Its too bad the song has to go with it. Maybe someone can just edit a good song to go with the PV minus the dance shots? <img src='http...

[quote name='Petit Hulk' timestamp='1362632501' post='146247'] The fuck you smoking AEUG? It's karaoke of the song and the PV part is just the solo shots. There's no "new" version at all. [/quote] There's a difference between actually being new and "new" in idol terms. There's 3 ...

Damn it I'm tired of Chisato and Airi. I used to hate Mai, but now I like her a lot more than both of them WHAT IS HAPPENING. This song is super boring. Why is everything in H!P trying to be super serious now? What happened to fun music? Tsunku must be really tired of actually making fun music, caus...

[quote name='showraniy' timestamp='1362436078' post='146032'] Not every negative comment is AEUG, and I think people are doing way too much associating AEUG with whatever negative comments were said in this thread. But there was a lot more said than the standard "hey this song sucks again"...

[quote name='yuzuriha' timestamp='1362261790' post='145857'] It reminded me of a mix of Sailor Moon and Cutie Honey or something. [/quote] Those are two pretty vastly different things to be comparing things to XD Haven't listened to the new song yet, but it can't be worse than Barnstorming. Right? <...

I really like several Perfume songs and listen to at least a dozen rather frequently, but this MM doesn't sound the same. The voice processing is very different and not as high quality. Perfume sounds more like a computer that tries to make melodies, whereas MM does still sound like girls (trying) ...

[quote name='Star' timestamp='1362087084' post='145612'] @AEUG, If you read it, it says they don't sound like Perfume.
