HOLY FUCK HARUKA SOUNDS AMAZING!!!!!!!

Seriously - we've NEVER had a voice like hers in MM!!!!!
Probably the closest was Kei or MAYBE Yossi - but even that's a stretch.

[Bakajo Nono]

Wow Haruka seriously sounds lovely.

[randompasserby]

I can definitely tell Masaki's voice apart from the others there on 1th listen .
The rest of the song sounds very good, i'll take it as a very good thing for Haruka there holding her own with Reina.

That song reminds me a lot of ALI Project's Rozen Maiden soundtracks though, down to Haruka sounding like Arika
Is it just me ?

[esm]

Oh darn. I was just about to explain it too!

Morning Musume Fifty-Oneth single!!!

I've been pronouncing it "Fifty-firth"

It comes out close to what it should be if you just read that the Japanese way.

[TotallyUncool]

I just realized that the kanji for Haruka's family name is the same as Kudō Shizuka's: 工藤

A good sign, perhaps?

[Starra]

Shizuka >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Haruka though.

Not sure if I like the song. Masaki's voice is lovely though.


AH: But they've had plenty of good singers before who've never become front girls...?

[zam_ho]

GAAAAAH another awesome performance!
anyway, i loved the set!! well, mostly the glow-y things, they seem to be actual light fixtures yet they move around to create different shapes. they had me mesmerized (on re-plays of the video) and i want something like that in my living room. heck, in my room. so i can stare at it all day lol.

Its actually a wall of lights. Works like an LED board. Lights are programmed to light up in sequence to give the effect of motion

The Wakuteka MJ performance is really good. And they got in a few really good zoom-in at Ishida. She looked gorgeous

Sayu's "dare ga honki de" line always gives me goosebump, in a good way. My favourite part of the song

Awesome gigantic poster at 109 Shibuya. Nice spot indeed.

I noticed it too. I guess if you're a fan of Rozen Maiden you would pick up on it.
I can imagine this 3 perform with Kuduu dressed up as Shinku, Reina as Suiginto and Masaki as Hinaichigo

I can't think of a good singer who was also popular who wasn't a front girl or front-girlish (lol).

[Starra]

Risa for a long time. Wasn't she quite popular?

Also, I always assumed that girls become popular because they're front girls, not the other way around.

I like Futsuu no Shoujo A, and it's great to hear their voices without autotune.
