There's something mesmerizing about those MM song Taiko videos.

It was a good time when H!P had that streak of appearances before COVID took over, I'm happy they've been invited back.

Hopefully Da-iCE fans will show some interest in Morning Musume. '22








The theme of this episode is female idols, with Da-iCE taking a deep dive into Morning Musume's traditions and history, the connection between senior and junior members, and Hello! Project's unique rhythm, all under the concept of "NO Sontaku (surmising the feelings of others) NO Ofuzake (fooling around)". The two groups will perform a collaborative studio live performance of Morning Musume's songs "LOVE Machine" and "Renai Revolution 21."

Of course it's those two songs. I know I'll enjoy it though.

[LiamMusume]

This appearance is most likely due to Kudo Taiki’s influence (the guy in the white top).
He is a big fan of Hello! Project and has sung a cover of Matsuura Aya’s 100回のKISS on one of their singles a few years back.

[Zunu]

Sounds like he WAS a big fan of H!P 20 years ago but isn't so familiar with any of their recent work..

[LiamMusume]

I seem to remember an article, which I can’t find any English sources for now, where he was talking about Juice=Juice and had attended some of the 20th anniversary events.

Apologies for being off-topic.

It’s nice to see two groups I like having a collab.
Would have been nice to see some newer songs performed, but it’s still nice to see!

This single is definitely growing on me since watching the MVs - I don’t follow Hello! Project as closely as I used to but I’m glad I can still enjoy their recent releases.
