Re: UFP/OG Spam Thread :: All things non-Hello!Project Related!
Man, I hope Ozeki gets good songs as opposed to 3rd-tier off-the-rack mid-tempo snoozers, because I really dig her voice. It's hard to tell how UF is gonna handle new M-line girls, especially when they weren't A-listers in H!P. And damn, I hope Yuka recovers alright. Anything related to the spine is...

Re: The Official H!P Question Thread
Honestly, you could pin it down to Reina's leadership. EDM as the MM guide star was the run from "Renai Hunter" through "Brainstorming." Starting with the Wagamama/Gundan single the songs used EDM elements as opposed to EDM arrangements for the most part.

Re: UFP/OG Spam Thread :: All things non-Hello!Project Related!
Not my favorite song, but I love that M-line is getting a gig like this, and I would LOVE if this would become at least a semi-permanent group, because it's awesome. Shit, given how thin H!P's release schedule is now, they could compete directly with H!P groups if UF wanted them to. Two songs per ye...

Re: H!P 25th Anniversary New Member Audition
Well good thing these girls are so young then. Plenty of time to learn! True. H!P's recent track record wrt girls becoming at least serviceable singers is pretty good.

The latest ep of Upcoming features audition footage of the TF n00bs, and uh, it appears that UF has decided that the group's trend toward higher performance needed to be curtailed, lol. Fuu-chan is the best of the three, but she's not great. Honestly, most of the KSS n00bs are better than all of the...

Ha ha, I knew Shoujo would have the deets! If my math is correct, there have been a total of 161 former members of KSS, of which 95 have debuted in H!P. That's a 59% hit rate, and if you assume the girls currently in KSS Unit will all make it to debut, it's a 61% hit rate. So girls who join the H!P ...

Re: Hello!Spam :: 2023 ~Dancing, Singing, Exciting!~
Here's the GOODM!X song and MV: "Come on Mix!"
Pretty fun old-school H!P vibe, and plenty of hooks throughout. I don't think it rises to the level of SHAKA SHAKA TO LOVE, Vitamin ME or Furefure Everyday, but it's pretty good.

This has the potential to be the thing that gets me back into H!P in a big way.

All they need now is ...

Judging by the silhuette it's going to be Shiori though, not Miimi. Yeah, I might be reading too much into Shiori's "hot pink" color, because that silhouette is not hot pink, lol. It does look more like Shiori than Miimi, though. That being said, I hope we get a song, like they did with t...

Riho's new video "Hi(gh) Life" dropped on YT yesterday.
This doesn't really hit me all that hard, which is how her catalog has trended since her solo debut.

Re: H!P fanmixes
Near as I can tell, fan mixes kind of died with the Platinum Era, if not during it. There are a few YT musicians who do play-alongs to H!P songs, but I haven't seen any full-on remixers in years. That's not to say they don't exist, just that I'm not aware of any.

Not gonna lie, I'm looking forward to Ami being leader, even if it's only for a few month, lol. And sp...

Re: This is a 2NE1 thread
There are a lot of singers that I grow to like in a group and they sound great, but when they go solo it's so underwhelming. The contrast with the other members of the group are what give them depth. For sure. I also think it's easy to just assume that an idol who stands out in a group will automat...

Re: Morning Musume 25; Song for You <COMPLETE> - Utakata Saturday Night!
My favorite MM songs have been their album tracks going back to Thank you, too, which leads me to believe that UF gives Tsunku more creative leeway with long-players. Normally this would be MM's New Album year, and I wonder if last year's Best Selection collection will push that back or not?

Re: Morning Musume 25; Song for You <COMPLETE> - Utakata Saturday Night!
"Fantasy ga Hajimaru" and "Wake Up Call" both making the finals kind of surprised me. I like both songs, but yeah. The craziest thing, though, is how the top song -- and two of the top four -- were not written by Tsunku.
