Oh good, slightly editing the poll title didn't delete the results. Phew. I would've added the poll earlier but I didn't wake up until a couple of hours ago and I didn't check JPlop until recently. Oops.

Egao no Kimi wa Taiyou sa is clearly the best song on this single.

[sb]

Kimi no Kawari by far. It's really intesnse and is about as badass of a song as you're gonna get from H!P. Egao is something I can listen to if it's accompanied by that gorgeous jailbait eye candy of a PV. Otherwise it's the kind of song I forget is even being played while I listen to it. What is Love? I just don't care about.

1) What is LOVE? sounds like Bubble Pop Electric so it gets my vote
2) Kimi no Kawari is okay, I love the nippon! parts.
3) Eago has a great chorus but NO @ those verses I find something new wrong with them every time I try and listen to it.

I voted Egao no Kimi wa Taiyou sa as my fav I know most people aren't liking how the lines don't "flow" like normal, but I quite like it (and Daishi's lines ). It gives me happy warm fuzzies!
My next would have to be Kimi no Kawarai wa Iyashinai. The repetitive part at the beginning and end bug me, but the middle is quite fun (though I think the dance is weird), and I can see it being a great concert song. Most numbers with a built-in chant do really well with a crowd
I like What is Love, and it has such a Golden Era vibe to me, but the PV and costumes really make me go . Maybe, because I've been listening to it since October, it has just lost it's initial luster with me.

on the top-right of the leaflet, you can see it says..
Morning Musume｡ is the name / ｢’14｣ is the (suffix? can't read that, just guessing) / between ｡ and ’ there is no space.

i always wondered how they pass along information to make sure the various places print the names correctly. makes a lot of sense to have something pre-prepared rather than to check with the places individually. also i just find things like this interesting for some reason.
