I have it tied up in a giant 4-ish hour long file... I can probably swing chopping it up for you. ^^

Tsunku writes awesome song for Kikuchi Momoko: “Seishun Love Letter”

http://wotaintranslation.com/2014/04/12 ... ve-letter/

““Seishun Love Letter” is an answer song to Kikuchi Momoko’s debut single “Seishun no Ijiwaru”.”
“Seishun no Ijiwaru”
Lyrics: Akimoto Yasushi, composition: Hayashi Tetsuji

Terada writing an answer song to Akimoto. (laughs)

Apparently Kikuchi Momoko’s fans are happy with it, saying like “it was worth buying the album just for this!” Tsunku’s sense of melody really is wonderful.

awesome arrangement.

The band Hatake is in outside of Sharan Q, Hatake Band, released a video for one of their songs, "Ai no Uta".
(apparently this has been up since 12/24/13 and I missed it back then).



I definitely don't hate it. Is that Thai at ~4:20?

Tsunku♂-producer's theory of work「Forge your powers of observation on your commute to work」

(...)the Tsunku♂ sound also consists of lyrics that spell out the state of mind of a life-sized girl。 It even has members of Hello！ Project questioning 「Why does Tsunku♂-san understand the feelings of girls to this level？」、 and it's also gathered a lot of empathy from the transvestites at Shinjuku 2-chome。How is it that a 45 year old can even now still realistically depict the heart of a maiden？

In other news: Tsunku apparently has Sherlock Holmes (or House if you prefer a modern interpretation)-like powers of observation.

「For me、 I tell that to the subordinates in my company。Like, “Yesterday、 when you were heading back home from work、 try talking about what happened”。 But、 none of them remember。Their faces go “Huh？”。 For example、 on the way from the station to the office、 there's a florist that's open until 10 pm、 going past a green traffic light、 and there were 3 traffic lights that were definitely red。 A new bakery has popped out、 and it's regular closing day is Sunday、 the convenience store started a ○○○ campaign… It's whether or not you're aware of such things。 If you look at the same scene、 it won't be exactly the same as what you saw yesterday。

And this, from the same source:

In the midst of your work commute、 don't just mess around with your smartphone all the time、 have your eyes on your surroundings、 and don't overlook the things that seem trivial。 To maintain such detailed powers of observation、 that's the first step to being a capable worker。 It might become the “power” that differentiates you from the others。

I think he makes some very good points.
