[6/13] Morning Musume '18 65th Single - Are you Happy?／A gonna

[CaptainBerryzGiraffe]

the song confuses me... Can't say I like the single song-wise Not the best send-off for Ogata :p

[Rysaria]

I liiiiiike. A lot. Can only hope Ogata gets a piece of something toward the end and not just the usual, but I won't die if it's just another normal PV.

On a funny side note, if Maria flips her hair a few more times in this MV it could be a decent drinking game. (Like the one where you drink every time Ai touches her face in Cinderella Complex... but that one's not for amateurs.)

[Celedam]

I can imagine all the odotte mita groups watching it and saying "Seriously?!".

It should be interesting to see who takes the challenge and how well they do.

Are you Happy? (Dance Shot Version)


I also got to see making of MV.

I am now.

I wasn't expecting to but I love this single.

My only irk is that Are you Happy feels a bit odd in that its another a-side that features 12th gen as a group and they're kinda lumped together again. I think they're the only generation to have multiple a-sides that feature them except their debut song.

Great performance! But that dance break was surprisingly very weird.
Also Eripon and Miki look amazing!

I really hope they get invited to Music Station. This is definitely a song that shows off how cool the current line-up is. But I hope they change the dance break.

Also I hope they re-air the performance since there was the train announcement during. It'll probably get re-aired with a Morning Musume special one day though.

[Sarah Palin]

Wow, originally thought this single was going to be lackluster & rushed, but both songs have grown on me like no one's business. Nothing beats the magic of Tsunku songs.
