[4/1] ℃-ute 27th single : The Middle Management ~Josei Chuukan Kanrishoku~ / GamushaLIFE / Tsugi no Kado wo Magare

[aerosuffly]

I really wish the last A-side is written by Tsunku even if it going to take him 2 more months to complete it. Come one it is their 10th anniversary single!

Good promotion for struggling artists. Get idol groups in your company to cover your songs and get free promotion and royalties. Win win!

I wonder how much Takui made by writing and composing a idol group song.

I also wonder how the people who worked behind the scenes get paid. I would expect it to be a "1 time paycheck" since it doesn't take as much days to record and arrange a single song. I guess I don't understand the music industry as much. @_@

I'm no expert but I assume booking and studio time fees , and a percentage of the merchandise that sells (strictly referencing music no photos, handshakes etc.)

[CaptainBerryzGiraffe]

Seeing how my dad does stuff like this, I think they only get payed once they complete the tracks, but it might be different in Japan and with idol groups.

[Sohee]

More Takui, awesome. <3

[CaptainBerryzGiraffe]

More Takui means.... MORE MUSIC PLUS BEHIND THE SCENES MUSIC YEAH?????????????

[Denki]

The behind-the-scene episodes for Taiki Bansei are the most viewed MUSIC+ episodes ever. (Not for that channel tho)

MUSIC+ would love the extra boost in views.

[CaptainBerryzGiraffe]

Hey, it makes sense. Those are some kick-ass behind the scenes. I want more! Wish we could see those with Tsunku.

Thx for sharing. Were you at the concert? This is the wrong place to ask... But did c-ute also perform their new song? How is it?

As I mentioned in the report, there is a chance I heard not Tsugi no Kado wo Magare, but I'm not one hundred percent sure. I'm pretty ashamed that I can't truly remember. WHICHEVER song it is however, it's got a very full more mature sound to it, I think. Airi is especially fantastic in it, she uses her whole voice and it's amazing. It's very C-ute-ish, but at the same time less H!Pish than usually if that makes any sense. At the same time nothing else really sticks out about it so I don't know how else to describe it. I found that I liked it however.
