The H!P Musings/Rants Thread

[Denki]

I still haven't listened to the other two h!pas a-sides, and since I don't really like family songs, I am keeping it that way. I refuse to listen to them and be disappointed.

So just thinking about how Dearest. is one of the most popular songs for H!Pers to cover (if not "the" most popular) but how many members have actually covered it? And who's version is everyone's favorite?

Off the top of my head I can recall versions by-
Ai-chan
Linlin
Captain
Risako
Airi
Chisato
Dawa/Was
Meimi
Sakura
Tomoko
Kudo

And IMO while Ai-chan's is probably vocally the best (she kind of cheated since she got to record it in studio) for some reason I quite enjoy Captain's performance at HinaFest.

Wada Ayaka: If Take got assigned to the next leader of Angerme, the band might become a round one, able to roll in any direction.

Does anyone know how long the mbcmschannel on YouTube has been unavailable? I could've swore I was browsing it a month or two ago, but I can't be positive.

[JonCC]

A very long time (2017 at least). Alongside the UFACTORY goods channel that used to exist.

Does anyone know how long the mbcmschannel on YouTube has been unavailable? I could've swore I was browsing it a month or two ago, but I can't be positive.

The videos are still there, even though the channel page has been hidden. In no particular order…

I had one favorited, and when I went to it, the rest showed up as recommended videos.

Huh, that long? It must've been a different channel I was wandering through then (probably the Satoyama channel). Thanks guys.

More of Serorinne (and to pick up again on the girl wota/Youtuber trend)
Room tour. H!P goods at 3:30

Also enjoy the fact that this girl truly has some of the coolest gear (although look away if you're allergic to RGB).

And a song cover while we're at it


There's also plenty of H!P and H!P-related clips among her liked videos.

[Zunu]

Don't think I've ever heard of her before but I'd rate that cover as probably in the top 5 of all versions I've heard of that song. Her channel confirms to me that she's just a good jpop singer full stop.
