This is a place where a signature goes. Enjoy some Airi instead.

That middle one sounds slow, like Jitensha.

the official site added it, seems like the title now is "Naze Hito wa Arasoun Darou? / Jinsei wa STEP! / Summer Wind" (何故 人は争うんだろう?/人生はSTEP!/Summer Wind)

I actually reaally liked this song... And I haven't liked C-ute's recent singles. But I think that's partially because it reminded me of this.

Oh wow, it's A LOT like that song.
It's really great, though. I got an Orange Caramel vibe from the verses.

Wow that made me actually give a C-ute song a chance for the first time in months. I do like it, just not quite love it.

Everything about this is perfect. I hope it sells a shit-load of copies.

New profile images for the group up, but I don't know which song they're supposed to be for.

They're probably for Naze Hito because they usually use the first A-side as the main one.

So, Jinsei wa STEP! sure sounds a lot like Peeping Tom by Jamie Berry:

So another H!P group is going retro? (At least for this single.) I'm aiight with that.

This week's H!S had a preview of Naze Hito wa Arasoun Darou? C-ute is going totally vintage on this one and I am FUCKING LOVING IT.
Re: [2016.04.20] °C-ute - Naze Hito wa Arasoun Darou? / Summer Wind / Jinsei wa STEP!
C-ute gettin' their JESUS on. Very gospel, right down to the "Oh happy day!"

They all look great but I'm not too fan of retro (though I loved Boogie Woogie Love). Hoping I'll like more their others A-sides.
Campy <3 !

Those are some good looking covers.

In general, I think the limited versions are all better than their regular counterparts, but none of them are bad.

Someone put radio rips of all the songs into a single YT clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELDRmrpmpxE
"Summer Wind" starts around 4:18
It's very moody -- dark, even -- and very Tsunku. I like it. This is a really strong single.

Am I really contemplating buying a C-ute single?! Especially since the last one I would've bought was Tokai no Hitorigurashi / Aitte Motto Zanshin?! (Had I been buying singles then.) Which was over 2 years ago. I Miss You / THE FUTURE was strong, but not enough I would've bought in to it.
But Naze Hito wa Arasoun Darou? is one of my favorite songs out of H!P at least this year so far, if not into last year, too.

MV for Naze Hito wa Arasoun Darou? was released. It looks pretty good, this is probably where a majority of the single's budget went.

I'm probably one of the few people who actually don't like this song.

I neither hate nor love it. Like nor dislike it. It's just there. But that's the epitome of what C-ute has been for me after they released Tsugi no Kado.
Re: [2016.04.20] °C-ute - Naze Hito wa Arasoun Darou? / Summer Wind / Jinsei wa STEP!
I definitely think it's the weakest of the three songs on this single, but I like it. I really need HQ audio of "Summer Wind" and "Jinsei wa STEP!" though. Jesus, it's still 3+ weeks until this thing drops

I enjoy Naze Hito in that it kind of reminds me of some golden era songs like I Wish and Dekkai Uchuu de Ai ga Aru but I feel like those songs did it way better, or at least, are catchier (Dekkai's 500 repeats of the chorus not withstanding) LOL. I want to like Summer Wind but something about the verses feels kind of tedious, I'll have to hear it in higher quality to form an opinion because I feel like some of the instrumentation is being dulled down by the radio rip. I like the idea of them doing anything with that dark feel though. Jinsei wa STEP is fantastic, I'm really excited to watch it inevitably get the worst video and least promotion LOL.
