Guardian4 - Going On

Post by Shoujo Q »

Just like Buono, Guardian4's newest single was previewed today on Shugo Chara.



The anime is sliced in with the PV so it's sorta a song/PV previewie thing.



YouTube Preview





I don't know if I like the yellow but yellow is not one of my favorite colors. But I do like the song! <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... iggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':danceman:' />





Oh and here's the full song from the concert rip from the Shuffle concert. YouTube

I like the song, not as much as Party Time and Omakase Guardian, but it's cute. The yellow, I think it's not a very nice shade for them... Yurina seems to wear it ok but it's not very complementary on the others. But, with them going through the colors it was bound to come up eventually.



The PV, I thought the scenes where it cuts back to reveal the directors in animal costumes to be really really weird. I don't watch the show though - is this an in joke or reference that I'm missing?

I think the animal costumes are just random. I don't remember any time where the costumes showed up in the anime. I think it's just there because, you know, kids like big costumed animal characters.......that's my only explanation about it.



I really like the song. It truly works for the anime better than all the other ones. Although, Party Time is my favorite out of the four, I still like all the songs, including this one. It's catchy.



The yellow is okay; but I'm still diggin' the blue!! <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... joyful.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':thumbsup:' />

I also think the animal costumes were just a plus. Maybe it was better than inserting random people's faces on screen. As for the uniform color, my favorite one is still the red but this yellow came out much better than I had expected! It's different and I like it that way. About the song... Even if Party Time was good, I don't like that formula, in the end all of them sound the same to me. But that shows they've been trying some new sound, although Going On is too similar to Party Time. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /pouty.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':dammit:' /> Well, it's not like they will sell that much. The PV's are all cute at the very least!

I know it's two weeks since the last post... but I really wanted to share it...



So it's like this:

Going on, which is Guardian 4 4th single sold over 10,000 in his first week, it's the best it sold for it's best week, and it will probably will be the best selling single from the group to date... the first single sold around 9k in it first week and 11k total, so it's great for them, as the small group (like all of shugo chara etc. and the rest) are usally selling the best on the first single and drop, which was happening with this group too until this one.



It's sound kind of stupid, but it's really great.





If I did something againts the rules, you can punish me and all, but I really had to write it.

I'd say it's fine. It's actual news. Don't worry. Bumping a topic is okay if you have new content to add/another topic. Giving sales if fine, but "i like this song" is not.



I don't really care for this song, but it's great that their sales are consistent. Most groups like this peak at their first or second single and just fade away.

Okay, great (about the beginning).



About the rest, that's what I said, it's like buono, their sales started with like 70k, but now they are around the 30k, even if now they are quite stable, you can see the down in sales.

It's also like morning musume, if NR would be saleing the same ammount 3 years ago the excitement would have been very little compared to now, because the avarage sales went down.



So it's quite good.
