Morning Musume – Pepper Keibu (or OMGAHSKJDJLSKAJDOSIADJLSKADJLASK)

I have this obsession with Pink Lady.  Everything they did just like poured amazingness.  So when W covered Pink Lady, it sounded amazing and I squeed.  Now that Morning Musume’s covered them… I’m pretty much a puddle of fangirl goo on the floor.   I wasn’t really expecting this to be good because Pink Lady requires a lot of vocal talent, which many of the girls don’t have.  Or so I thought.

Nakayama Yuma Had to Get Surgery…

Naturally, one of the four Johnny’s Jr’s that I actually care about (Hasshi, Yuma, Shoon, and that lead singer/guitarist from Question?) gets injured.  Naturally.

(He looks like a fish in that picture… =D)

How on Earth…

Can people not love Junjun?  I just don’t get it.  I mean, look at her!!

Berryz Koubou – Special Generation ~Eccentric Remix~

Hello!°C-ute recently uploaded a radio preview of the new remix of Special Generation that’s going to be on Berryz Koubou’s 5th album, 5 (FIVE), which will be released in a week.  I usually don’t like remixes too much, and I was really skeptical of this one because… well, why?  And Special Generation is one of the (debatably) best Berryz songs ever released, so I was afraid they would kill it. But I think it’s honestly one of the best remixes I’ve ever heard.

Well, what I could hear of it, because the stupid radio show hosts were talking through most of it and you could barely hear it.  But hear it you could.  And it was so worth downloading.

If you want to give it a listen, the download is over yonder at Hello!°C-ute!

A Revelation of Sorts…

Something dawned on me today while we were driving 10 hours back from Nebraska.

Nishikido Ryo is to NEWS…

…as Michishige Sayumi is to Morning Musume.

I can has analogies.

(It actually makes a lot of sense.  Neither can sing, both got in on looks, both are the most gorgeous faces in their respective groups, they murder everything they sing yet still get lines…)
