6th Station ~Other Bands for H!P Fans~

[Starra]

Holy shit.

i like the song and the PV is fun except for the parts that involved the one dude, but i think this also made me realize that i find it hard to get into idols when they're too fresh. at least in Hello! Project they usually don't start as an entire group of youngins that haven't had time to grow into their looks/personality/charm. they get mixed in with established members, or they start out having already had time to adapt to the idol world as Kenshuusei/Eggs.

it'll be like 3 years before i find any of them interesting enough to care much about them, kind of reminds me about how i couldn't get into Canary Club at the beginning, but by the end i had favorites and was looking forward to more (and then they disbanded ). but if this song is any indication, their music direction shows promise!

And now for a little retro-8-bit...

^^^ Love the gimmick! Pink Lady forever! I'm thinking that the end of the video might be a teaser for "Monster".

I liked the A★TEENS a lot when they were doing nothing but ABBA covers. I bought their first single when they were still ABBA★TEENS. When they stopped covering ABBA, I quickly lost interest.

also, apparently the Momoclo PV for Moon Pride shows a lot of future scenes, to some people it's pretty spoiler-y. i only saw clips from Instagram but i see what they mean, not so much story but scene/animation spoilers of what seem to be pretty late episodes. beware if you're looking to avoid that kind of thing!

^^ I've been listening to some ABBA lately. I went to the ABBA Museum in Stockholm, and it was really cool. I could imagine how it's like heaven for hardcore fans because there were interactive parts, like you could perform with a virtual ABBA (as two women are in there doing).

[erilaz]

^ That sounds great!

I never got to see ABBA perform live, but I did go to see an ABBA tribute/parody group called Björn Again a couple of times. It was a lot of fun.

[Mirai]

I love ABBA! I'd probably do the virtual performance thingie myself if I ever went to the museum

A*Teens was pretty cool, but yeah, I only ever liked the one non-ABBA song that got airplay on the radio. They were supposed to be at a summer concert with a bunch of other artists I attended back like in... 2000? 2001? but one of the guys had a leg injury so just the girls came on stage and sing a teeny bit of "Dancing Queen" and then left

WOWZERS

They're actually really good! They're pretty new from the looks of things, as this is the only other cover they have on their YT channel:


I'm sure you're able to find this by yourself, but for you and anyone else who's interested, here's their official site (the WANTED MV starts automatically playing, so be warned!): http://www.pinkbabies.jp/pc/
