[10/10] Morning Musume : Wakuteka Take a chance

[Starra]

Its their lowest selling single so that does mean something....

But before that it was Mikan which is viewed as a strong song sooooooooooooo

But IIRC, lots of people disliked Mikan.

[AyuHikaru]

They did. Mikan didn't get a strong following till way after it's release.

Pyoko >>> Kanashiki, in my opinion. But yeah, it just makes more sense for Morning Musume to go after the cool style since that's exactly what fans want, and what can be popular with non-fans.

I'm mostly talking about that part when they line up in rows of two and Reina and Riho are hidden in the back. It would be super awkward to have two giant holes in the back. They could easily be filled by Reina and Riho since it's obvious (to me), they'll be the ones getting Ayumi and Haruka's lines while they perform this minus the two.

Oh, that part. Yeah, you are right.

But Reina/Riho fan that I am, I hope Ayumi and Haruka's lines be given to Eripon and Masaki perhaps? Or Masaki and Kanon? Or Haruna and Eripon? Or any combination of girls who usually don't get much lines. I personally wouldn't mind since I AM a Reina/Riho fan but I'm all for equal line distribution if that makes everyone happy.

I know Ayumi has another line, that may not go to Reina or Riho, but idly it could be given to Kanon since she was behind Ayumi. But it'll probably go back to Reina.

I noted a lot of Masaki and Ayumi lines in this besides the usual suspects and everyone elses one liner.

The release date is more than a month away, so I don't think they have to worry about the lines. Ayumi's injury only takes a month to recover, she will be back for the fall tour. Haruka has a more serious condition but even if she can't dance, I'm sure she will be there sitting on a chair and singing. The formation might look a bit awkward, but it's also not the first time they have to adopt a choreography to a new lineup.

As for the MV... they can fill it with blurry member-focused dance scenes or something, have a lot of alternative close-up versions and film a complete dance shot for the Event V or Youtube after both of them is back.

[erilaz]

^ Sure, they'll Aika them in there somehow.

[aishiteruaibon]

Man, Mikan was such a good song. I honestly don't get why people weren't into it. I've only ever bought 3 Momusu singles, and Mikan was one of them.

Also, Kanashiki >>> Pyoko, and I can't remember who said it—but I do agree that Kanashiki seemed more like b-side.

I STILL WANT AYUKUDUU. Ugh. Post-pone the release if you have to, UFA. It will be depressing seeing the video without the girls after having seen the dance rehearsal with all the girls.

Grumblegrumble.

[Chibs]

you mean a-side?

[aishiteruaibon]

Nope, I actually mean b-side.
Just to make sure I wasn't crazy, I went back a page to check.

Kanashiki Koi no Melody felt like a bside to me
