Buono~ Bravo!Bravo! PV Preview

[Shoujo Q]

I have no idea when the single is being released, but here's a preview of Buono's next single to be released and it's also the new ending for the new Shugo Chara Party anime.

[Special Needs Tricycle]

This is amazing. Buono is amazing. I completely forgive them for Take it Easy. Airi rules everything around me.

[Farrah]

Man, it feels like every single one of the girls ends up looking awkward - Momoko this time - not a flattering hairstyle. Everyone else looks good, though. Not big on the song, though. Not very catchy imho.

[BeForJess]

I think they all look great in this. Airi's vocals are the star of this song. I just don't find the tune itself very catchy.... Maybe it will grow on me (Take it Easy certainly did), but some of their singles never did (Kiss Kiss Kiss, Gachinko de Ikou). Hopefully hearing a full version will help too.

[tsukinobyouin]

I agree, they all look great and I want to steal Airi's shoes in the "rock" outfits. It's not one of those songs that I instantly love to death like My Boy, but I like it and I have a feeling it'll grow on me as I hear more of it. The little cheer part is cute, even though I have no idea why they're spelling P-A-T-I.

[Liana]

I've decided Pati is Mariko's sister and they are like Thelma and Louise and kill bad men for justice.



I remember liking this song when I listened to it yesterday, but I can't remember what it sounds like today, which probably means I didn't like it as much as I thought. Or I have a terrible memory. Both, probably.

AMAZING. Buono hasn't had a major misstep for their entire 2year-some career.

Nah, because they'd just spell out "party" properly. Pachi pachi is an onomanopopeia for like, scattering bursts of something -- usually applause, but it can also be flitting eyelashes or sputtering. Given that the title is "Bravo," they are wearing cheerleader outfits, and they are saying "we're sending you applause," (kimi ni hakushu wo okure) I think they are just singing, like, "CLAP YAY."

[Shoujo Q]

Aww well now that just ruins it. :< I wanted to think they were spelling out Pati because it had to do with the party theme of the anime. You RUINED it for me. Thanks! <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... pyeyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':riot:' />

Um um, it might be an "applause party." You know how much Japanese people like puns!

If everybody here didn't ignore Mano Erina, we'd already know that Japanese songs know how to spell P-A-R-T-Y pretty competently. Hmph. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /noway.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />

who?

[Mierna]

Apparently "pati" can mean "pachi", which means clapping hands, right? And isn't that what the girls are doing when they cheer? <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... >/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':whistling:' />



I liked the PV. The girls just look so much more beautiful now. But I can't think about the PV without thinking of iCarly first. :|

I also think that is the case here! "Pachipachi" does mean the sound of clapping hands but I wouldn't discard a bad pun either. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... tongue.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lesson:' />



Either way, so far it is a great song <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... umbsup.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':whistling:' /> Just not as good as My Boy...

But you can't have it all and it is better than Take It Easy so I'm satisfied!

Not that Take it Easy was bad, in my opinion, it just didn't "rock" enough to be a Buono! song.

(I'm sure no one is actually interested in that but I love reading the credits, and I hope I'm not bothering you all once again...) The lyricist for that song is again Kawakami Natsuki, as it seems to happen to almost all of the couplings. But the composer is AKIRASTAR this time, he did Minna Daisuki <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':devil:' /> I hope it is a good sign! Last coupling was a bit boring for me...

[IncolourXx]

this song is really awesome 8D its one of their better songs and they look great in it!

[Storm121693]

when is the full pv gonna be released? i love the song already! yay Buono!

[BonkyuAsh]

I like it, but it's not catchy. Sorta like Take it easy wasn't catchy, but I still liked it.

[zlilzlilzlil]

this is the single tracklist:



1. Bravo☆Bravo

2. Winter Story

3. Bravo☆Bravo(Instrumental)

4. Winter Story(Instrumental)



the release date is December 16...

[Storm121693]

It's been a long while since the pv preview came out. does anybody know when the actual pv is gonna be released! love the song and their new looks!

[thamychan]

Full PV is up on Dohhh UP!: http://www.dohhhup.com/movie/RDreU7nW7WwKh...KitL1F/view.php



It's cute, I missed that energy! But nothing different from what we had already seen.

[Shoujo Q]

Live Performance of Bravo*Bravo. They sang live, if Momoko's strain was anything to go by and the live band of course.



Yay for live band! <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... iggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' />

[EmEl]

Hooray for the band! I'd love to see live bands more often, like in the old days of television performances that had the mini-orchestra playing for the cute little singers. Sure, songs were arranged differently in those days, but there are songs that could be awesome with real instruments.

[Pucchi-Mo]

The guitar sounds identical to the single, <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... R#>/XD.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> I think this "live band" is doing the instrumental equivalent to lipsynching.... Just look at the keyboardist. She's going crazy, but how much keyboard do you even hear in this performance? It looks like when you give a younger relative a video game controller and they hit buttons while someone else is actually playing.



Also, it's the same chicks from the PV. The single itself has a band performance sound, so it was a live band at one time probably, but I don't think anyone is making a sound in this performance other than Buono. Like UFA would pay a real band for a random TV performance. Actors are cheaper. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... umbsup.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' /> Well, Buono did a nice job.

[Melon]

At first I thought it was the band from their awesome lives (in the PV and stage performance), but I'll have to check my dvd copy to be sure. But...I've seen some lives where the band is present and they are all accomplished players and the singer is the only one live. I love it because some look bored and seem like they're phoning it in XD I'm impressed UFA allowed the girls to sing live. Airi <3



Oh God Buono has been blessed by some sort of anti-UFA fairy because they have not fallen to the leagues of suck. Sure they had their speedbumps, but they're so consistent it's impossible not to fall for them. Not even Momoko/Miyabi hate could keep me from disliking this group. And the PV is awesome, so awesome it makes me like the single by proxy.

[Nicky]

Love the pv and the single. Much better than Take it easy. That single was a bit of a disappointment to me.

The line distribution is excellent. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... umbsup.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

[JPope]

Pretty much the Buono! Formula that we've come to know and mostly love, but I'm with the person who said it isn't really that catchy, and this formula really demands strong hooks. I like this a lot, but it just seems like it's not as good as it might have been.
