I don't really like covers ever since Pepper Keibu.
Its really a stain in an otherwise good discography for momusu. Plus it reduces the likelihood of seeing it on streaming, so by association I don't enjoy covers as much as original songs.

The only good exception to this I can think of is Go West maybe?

Do you enjoy Hyokkori Hyoutanjima? :lol:

I'm fine with DOWN TOWN being the "main" A-side; I think it's gonna suit them well.

It's such a comfortable song, I love it. I'm glad they swapped the a-sides (not that it matters much, still both a-sides).

I love Riai's fake at the end before Takagi's. That was refreshing to hear.

Reirei is a great addition to Juice=Juice
I really like that they adopted her vocal percussion from Kobushi’s Acoustics. And it seems to really fit for this single.
I wonder if perhaps they swapped over the A single to showcase Yume and Riai more along with Rei

I now realize where I heard DOWN TOWN before. Because it sounded familiar but I know I hadn’t heard the original. Sakamoto Maaya covered it as the opening for the anime Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru back in 2010.
