C-ute - Aitai Lonely Christmas

[Shoujo Q]

Radio preview of C-ute next single, Aitai Lonely Christmas has been put on the radio. Listen to it here.





Single will be released on December 1st in three versions. The PV will be on C-ute's 3rd DVD collection so there's no Single V.









It's a ballad with a synthesizer and some guitar! You can't have a c-ute single without a dance break right?

[momoirosaya]

I really like it! It doesn't sound like all their other songs(unless someone wants to correct me here), and the rhythm is nice!

[Tallgeese]

I like it, and it sounds like it's more than just Maimi and Airi, which is good.

[Special Needs Tricycle]

Amazing. I can't wait for a higher quality rip/PV/performance. This is my favorite single from them since Forever Love, probably.

[Nicky]

It sounds good. The line distribution is good too <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... iggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' />

[Shoujo Q]

And now for something completely different, the C/W! Seishun! Mugen Power

It's just the same CM replayed twice.

Bow down to my 5 goddesses please. Gaze in awe at their beauty and artistic genius. Legendary. You can look but you can't touch.

[Tallgeese]

Amazed that it's fairly balanced and not another Maimi/Airi show. This is a single A side right?! <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... omgwtf.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rimshot:' /> Anyway, nice vid, but I'm not feelin' Maimi's short haircut.

I hereby officially declare C-ute to be the worthy successor of Melon Kinen-Bi as my favorite (active) HP group. Other groups may have better individual performers, but as a whole C-ute has the best vocals, dancing ability and sheer entertainment factor. Also, with stupid-head Koharu gone, I no longer actively hate ant HP member, but I'm apathetic to quite a few, and C-ute has the honor of not having a single "meh" member, although I would love to take a rusty aluminum bat to the functionally retarded fans of certain members... *coughtairicough*



Brings a tear to my eye thinking about seeing them debut way back on '02 as a bunch of little midgets and now they're all grown up and awesome.

As a pedant may I say this is not possible?



Thank you.

[al kusanagi]

I never said that the rust originally came from the bat.

[tsukinobyouin]

I love the song, I love the PV, I love the outfits, all of the girls look adorable... <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/wub.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rimshot:' /> I'm glad to see C-ute get two awesome songs in a row after several crap ones.

[Shoujo Q]

The amount of Chisato makes me very happy and this is a single worth buying, if I were to buy C-ute singles. But i'm tied up with enough other H!P albums to purchase that this will have to be on the back-burner for awhile.



I'd call this the PV of 2010, but the Oha Maple/S/mileage PV looks like it might be a good contender for that title also with the amount of extras they packed into that PV.

Oh, and... This song isn't half bad. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':weeeh:' />

Now that Berryz is stuck in Anime-mode Tsunku has no choice but to give C-ute the good songs. ;D

[alita87]

My first response to the title of the song was "Gah... not a Christmas song this early in the year." Then I remembered how awesome HP's previous songs related to the holidays have been and decided to wait to see. Loved it when it first played the radio and now after seeing the full PV my faith in Cute has been reconfirmed. Although their performance proved to still hold strong as a group of five during the spring tour, it just didn't seem like with two member departures in such a short span of time Tsunku had any idea what he wanted to do with them. That was the song "Shock" by Airi featuring C-ute. Then Campus Life just seemed to be a fun song but with an image that most of its members (not being in college yet) don't fit. And finally with Dance de Bacoon C-ute appeared to be taking on a new persona. And from that we have Aitai Lonely Christmas.



The lines are balanced, the PV is cute and features them playing around in a Christmas village ornament, and it has both the fun we used to see in the old cute and the sort of mature talent based group they have grown into. I like it. I hope this image is the one that Tsunku sticks to.

[Melon]

I am full of love for this song and PV. I usually hate seeing Christmas stuff this time of year too.

[momoirosaya]

This song/PV made me love C-ute 100% more.

[strawberryjam]

Bumping because this song didn't come out THAT long ago...

And because I just heard it on the radio.



This song is actually good. The last cute song I sincerely loved loved was Edo no Temari Uta II. WHICH IS WAY TOO LONG TO WAIT. 2 years, uhg.

[Arichii]

Dance Shot Version~! Watch it before it magically disappears from YT.



And I really liked the song and the PV <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' /> . And after watching the dance it makes me happy they didn't add the dance shot, not that it's bad but for the most part it looks like they injured their left arm O_o

[Shoujo Q]

That was pretty good. At some points it looked like Maimi and Airi had their left arms amputated.



The instrumental break didn't disappoint with the dance. Where did the Dance shot come from? Was it one of the singles or the PV collection?

[EmEl]

Limited A had "Christmas House ver."

Limited B had "Christmas Night ver."

Music V that came out today has "Dance Shot" (and the "Making of" for this single, and other things for the other singles of course)

"White Christmas ver." is on youtube.
