It's midnight and I didn't really intend to post anything today, but I was watching this video and I was moved to tears. This is so amazing. It's like Susan Boyle. None of us expected this voice to come out of LinLin. At least, I didn't. WHERE DID THIS COME FROM? :O

I have to admit I didn't like her when she first joined. I thought she was trying too hard as an idol and frankly was a bad singer. But OBVIOUSLY I was so wrong.

LinLin has gone through so much. She came to a country where she didn't know the language well, became the new member and one of the first foreign members of Morning Musume, and for a time not many people liked her. But now she's one of the best vocalists in Morning Musume (in my opinion).

 I am so proud of Morning Musume right now x3

(Good morning. I edited this post because... when I posted it at midnight I was tired and was just rambling.) 

So this morning I wake up, check International Wota, and what do I see? "Wonder Girls to Release English Singles..." Okay, already I'm interested; "... Album... and Tour With the Jonas Brothers" *rubs eyes* Am I reading this correctly?! I mean, while I may not be too into Wonder Girls (or the Korean music scene in general ^^;), I like a few of their songs and living in a household with a little sister who fangirls over Nick Jonas, I've become quite accustomed to the Jonas Brothers.

So apparently they'll be opening for the JoBros for 13 shows in 7 cities on their world tour. I'm guessing the 13 shows will be in Asia then. Actually, I'm hoping they'll be in Asia, because my sister is going to see a show in August and if the Wonder Girls are there, you bet I'll be jealous xD

But this makes me wonder... what if some H!P acts were to tour with the Jonas Brothers, or any other insanely popular American artist?

While I cannot see Joe Jonas singing and dancing along to The*Peace! (even though it would be incredibly entertaining and I'd develop a new respect for him), I can easily see them doing a song like Morning Musume Otome Gumi's Yuujou ~Kokoro no Busu ni wa Nara Nee!~

 

PS: Love Bug is my favorite Jonas Brothers song ;P

How was everyone's week? Mine flew by, since I am on Spring Break! But now I miss it xD

Oldest first, newest last.

Mano Erina no longer an i-DULL

Now, I'm not sure if this was an April Fool's joke Hello!Online decided to play, but I'll report it anyway. A radio preveiw for Manoeri's 2nd major single Hajimete no Keiken has been leaked onto the internet and, this thing that Tsunku said just cracked me up.

"My goal for Mano was to create a new type of idol, one that breaks the typical idol mold. Energetic singing. Catchy, upbeat music. Fun lyrics. These were the three demons I wanted to slay when producing Mano so far."

But I've now realized that I may have overestimated the appeal of an idol such as this. My original plan was to produce a new generation of uninteresting idols, or i-DULLS. This was a mistake. That's why I've decided to steer Mano more toward the music you can hear in her new single. It's the kind of song that even a fan of good music can enjoy. Please treat her kindly."

Now, this was posted on H!O on April Fool's Day, the one day when things really shouldn't be taken seriously. And to be honest I don't know it Tsunku really said this or not.

Release date: May 20th

 

Hello!Project website receives a facelift

The official Hello!Project Japanese website received a makeover to make up for the recent Elder Club graduation (baww). It's actually pretty awesome :P

 

Wait, I thought Nacchi already graduated?

Um.

Abe Natsumi's summer tour has been announced. I dunno. I'm confused.

The title is Abe Natsumi Summer Live Tour 2009 ~Yappari Sneaker ga Suki!~ and will be from June 6th to August 1st.

 

The Hello!Project summer tour. The NEW Hello!Project, that is

The summer 2009 H!P tour has been announced. All of Hello!Project, which is now Morning Musume, Berryz Kobo, C-ute, and Mono Erina will be performing along with the usual MC Makoto on July 19th - August 9th.

Today, I made my friend Ali's ears bleed by showing her several PV's that I THOUGHT she would like. Turns out she hated them all but one, but we'll get to that later.

Ali's favorite bands are Goo Goo Dolls, Maximum the Hormone, Paramore, Dashboard Confessional, Secondhand Serenade, Fall Out Boy, Panic! At the Disco, and Slipknot. As you can see, she LOVES rock and anything with ripping guitar solos.

I showed her Shabondama, Kanashimi Twilight, Naichau Kamo, Kill me Kiss me, Sakura Mankai, Jiriri Kiteru, Honto no Jibun, and, just for fun, Hapi Hapi Sunday. ;D

She didn't have as much to say about these as opposed to what Layneh had to say.

So, while showing my sister the Naichau Kamo PV (because, you know, its just THAT epic) she started making a lot of comments. So I was like "What if... I wrote down her comments... and posted them in my blog?" (because, you know, I'm just SO dedicated to blogging).

The whole idea is that, as fans, we tend to forget about what we thought of Hello!Project when we first discovered them.

My sister (who actually just started her own blog. Layneh.Lolitas. Please welcome her to Vox :D) is the typical tween. Her favorite artists are the Jonas Brothers, Roonil Warzlib, Paramore, Draco and the Malfoys, Taylor Swift, and actually while I performed this experiment, she became a fan of Kusumi Koharu. She's been exposed to H!P a little bit, she liked Berryz Kobo for about a week. And she watched half of the Wonderful Hearts 2008 Winter concert with me.

I decided to show her some new PV's, also some somewhat new ones that I though she'd like. The PVs are Naichau Kamo (Morning Musume), VERY BEAUTY (Berryz Kobo), Sakura Chirari (C-ute), MADAYADE (Berryz Kobo), FOREVER LOVE (C-ute), Onna ni Sachi Are (Morning Musume), Tokaikko Junjou (C-ute), Hapi Hapi Sunday! (Kusumi Koharu), Kill me Kiss me (HANGRY & ANGRY), co no michi (Buono!), and Kanashimi Twilight (Morning Musume).

Here are her thoughts:

 

• The dance [in the beginning] is weird.
• The crying parts [for some members] look akward.
• Some of them should have looked at something else besides the camera.
• Ai, Aika, Risa, Koharu, and Eri look good.
• JunJun looks akward in the rain scenes, but her closeups look good.

• Rating: 6/10

 

 

So overall, Layneh gave them all high ratings (I need to teach her how to be more tough!). I've got some other ideas in store for her, so stay tuned. :D

Morning Musume's new PV, Naichau Kamo! For some reason it wouldn't let me embed ^^;

What can I say? Its sexy, its creative, and its pretty.

I guess I'll make a Good & Bad list.

The Good:

• Umbrella and streamer backdrop is creative
• Song starts off with a bang
• Crying scenes look real - but according to Reina they were done with eyedrops
• Dance is EPIC
• JunJun... I love her! <33
• Close up scenes with the window is creative, and looks good
• Ai's a good actor... but... (see The Bad)
• LinLin looks amazing!
• Great outfits -- both the dance and casual ones.
• Colors look good together (the blue, white, red, and greens)
• The song! KAMO KAMO KAMO

The Bad:

• ... I don't like it when Ai cries
• Why is their dancing Latin looking but the song is rock-ish?
• The hula dancing durin the instrumental break is not needed.
• 

  Reina kamo 3
• Reina looks like she's going to puke in the rain scenes.

 

So why am I crying tears of joy? The PV has a danceshot, close ups, and a somewhat story part! And even though its not much of a story, plain awesomeness of the song and the scenes in the PV make up for that.

 

And heres the eycandy :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

LinLin's like the only person who didn't just stand there during the rain scenes.

 

 

 

JUNJUN

 

 

 

 

 

Another year, another concert! I always look forward to these, but this year Mari isn't MCing so... that kinda sucks ;_;

I can't wait to see the tracklist for the Elder Club concert, which I know must have some songs featuring Mari.

As for the big end concert, while I'm excited to see Ice Creamusume's debut, but I know I'll need a box of tissues watching the graduation.

 

1) Resonant Blue (All) - Well this is exciting, I just hope its not Ai and Reina being the only ones singing, expecially since its the opening and all...

2) LALALA Shiawase no Uta (All minus Shugo Chara Egg!) - Ugh >.> I suppose its good for getting the crowd excited but... c'mon.

3) Minna no Tamago (Shugo Chara Egg) -  This song's been sticking to me, so I'm alright with it.

 

4) Hapi☆Hapi Sunday (Kusumi Koharu) - *skips*

5) Tan Tan Taan! (MilkyWay) - The one Kirarin*Revolution song I can listen to without hating it. I'll probably watch for first few seconds and then move on, though...

6) FOREVER LOVE  (C-ute) -  Awesomeness. I just hope that the chorus is alright, because its horribly high pitched and must be hard to sing live.

 

7) Meguru Koi no Kisetsu (C-ute, Tanaka Reina and Mitsui Aika) - Alright... thats... interesting. AikaxReina lead would be cool though.

8) MADAYADE (Berryz Kobo) -  RISAKO. LIPSYNC. PLEASE.

She does so horribly at concerts.

Other than that, woot.

9) Koi no Jubaku (Shimizu Saki, Sudou Maasa, Kumai Yurina, Tokunaga Chinami, Sugaya Risako, Kamei Eri, Michishige Sayumi) - Whats up with the Momusu H!P Kids shuffle? Not that I have a problem, I love this song. Risako just better not ruin it.

 

Lalala-Sososo

10) Lalala-Sososo  (Mano Erina) -

I've started to like Manoeri's solo work, but its too bad there can't be a dance or a nice costume for this. Not exactly good concert material, Lucky Aura would have been better.

11) Rottara Rottara (Buono!) - If its Buono!, I'll love it.

 

12) Naichau Kamo (Morning Musume) - Epic costumes, first of all. I wonder if they're just substitute concert costumes for until the PV is released, or the real thing? Oh well, I can't wait. KAMO KAMO KAMO.

13) Mikan (Niigaki Risa, Kamei Eri, Michishige Sayumi, Kusumi Koharu, Mitsui Aika, JunJun, LinLin, Yajima Maimi, Sugaya Risako) - So... looking at who's singing I'm getting pretty excited until I come to the end and see... Risako -.-

And I'm gonna say this right now cause I think I know what you're thinking - I do not hate Risako, but lately her lives have been horrible. She's got amazing looks and can hit high notes with ease, but why does she always have to scream and look like she's in pain?

14) Jingisukan (All) Awesome. I'm getting bored with just Berryz singing it, so I'm excited.

15) Shiroi TOKYO (Nigaki Risa, Yajima Maimi, Tokunaga Chinami, Nakajima Saki, Hagiwara Mai, Mano Erina) - Yay :D Mano gets to sing more.

16) Natsu Doki Lip Stick (Yajima Maimi, Kikkawa Yuu, Maeda Yuuka, Fukada Kanon, Sekine Azusa, Ogawa Saki) - This sounds like a Maimi solo with Eggs as back-up. Eh.

But this isn't really a good winter song...

17) Baka ni Shinaide (Shimizu Saki, Natsuyaki Miyabi, Kumai Yurina, Sugaya Risako) - Mmkay. Alot of Berryz in this concert, amirite?

18) Mr.Moonlight ~Ai no Big Band~ (Takahashi Ai, Umeda Erika, Tokunaga Chinami, Nakajima Saki, Okai Chisato, Arihara Kanna, Saho Akari, Sekine Azusa) - AWESOME. But lets hope its not 100% Aichan, I want to hear Chisato too!

19) Soku Dakishimede (C-ute) - This is the best early C-ute song, its always so intense and awesome. And best of all -- it replaced Massara Blue Jeans!! Yes!

 

20) Gyagu 100kai bun Aishite Kudasai (Berryz Kobo) - Yay no Special Generation :DDD And last I remember its mostly Momoko ^^

21) Darling I LOVE YOU (Berryz Kobo, C-ute) - I've heard this song too much. But hey, its newer than Massara Blue Jeans and Special Generation.

22) Take off is now! (Takahashi Ai, Nigaki Risa, Tanaka Reina) - Never heard this but I know its gonna be in the new album (or at least I'm pretty sure ^^;) so YAY!

23) Renai Revolution 21 (Morning Musume) - Better than LOVE Machine.

24) Guru Guru JUMP (All) - Another song from the new album, woot.

25) Ame no Furanai Hoshi de wa Aisenai Darou (All) - Finally more LinLin love. She isn't in a single shuffle this concert. And of course I'm happy JunJun is there too <3 And maybe this time more solos for the others?

26) Go Girl ~Koi no Victory~ (All) - This was the first Momusu song I ever heard, so I love it. I haven't seen it in concerts much so yay x3 I'm guessing groups of singers are distinguished by colors?

 

Annnddd thats enough of my two cents.

Just an update: still looking for more Engrish T-shirts T^T

WARNING: This may kill your internet.

 

Jyan~ I found Morning Musume's latest Alo-Hello on YouTube and I liked it so much, I'm sharing screenshots that I took. This is YouTube, so the quality isn't all that great but whatever, IT'S MORNING MUSUME.

Oh, and another warning, theres an excessive ammount of JunJun being cute. Your head may explode into bits of candy.

So first there's a race but it isn't all that interesting, so lets move on to the volleyball game. Its juniors (7-8gen) vs. sempais (5-6gen).

 

Juniors aren't doing so well ;_;

 

 

 

 

 

Gaki: "You guys are sooo embarassing."

 

 

Sorry you guys lost.

 

Juniors win!

Onto the pool...

 

 

Sayumi has THE cutest bikini. I want.

 

 

 

 

Looks like Aika's the annoying little sister of Momusu.

 

x333

 

"You didn't see me fall! You didn't see that! Infact, I didn't even fall! I'm just kidding!"

 

I did this once with my friends. Only it popped on us. Cheap Wal-Mart floatie >.>

 

 

Well that was fun. Now they all go their seperate ways, firstly, Reina, Aika, and Risa at some Sea World place!

 

DOLPHINS OMG

 

 

Is Aika cute or is Aika cute?

 

 

 

 

 

OK That was fun. Now Ai, Sayumi, and Eri go shopping for jewelery but I'm skipping that because all they do is squee.

 

So now its surfing with JunLin and Koharu! I love how the guy is just like "LinLin, put on a small." and then Koharu's like "RED!" and JunJun's like "I like red too T^T"

 

Is the surfboard heavy, Koharu?

 

First time on the board...

NG

 

Look at that! JunJun's a natural!

 

Koharu... not so much.

 

LinLin likes making faces, doesn't she?

Alright, and its not a trip to Hawaii without the super fast boat ride! This time with Ai, JunJun, and Aika. x3

 

JunJun's English is soooo cute x3 "Exciting... I like exciting."

Alright... here we go~

 

 

They've spotted a dolphin! I think this is the first time something like this has happened on an Alo-Hello or Love Hello.

 

JUNJUN OMG YOU ARE SOOO CUTE x3 "Mr. Quick, good job~."

But what's Aika looking at?

 

A really big fish O.o

 

And a really muscular man O.o

 

Haha Aichan's scared x3

Wait... whats that guy doing in the background?

 

He just of been plotting to scare Aichan xD And boy was she scared xDD

Alright, now its time for..

 

LinLin, Reina, and Sayumi's cooking corner~

 

 

So, LinLin's face aside, what could they be making?

 

 

 

Fruit bouqets~ <3 Very pretty, girls. But Sayumi's is a little sideways.

 

Fixed <3

 

Jya jyan~

 

"SAYUMI NO...!?"

Bzzzt.

xD

 

OK, so they made fruit thingies, cake, and some meat thingy. But we don't get to see the finished cake ;_;

Instead...

 

BBQ with all the members!

 

MITTSI STOP BEING CUTE.

 

Aww Koharu sharing her rib with Risa <3

 

But now its time for a surprise...

 

The cake!

 

That. Is. Adorable.

 

 

You've ahhh... got a little something on your face, JunJun. ^^;

 

Looks like she found the bananna in the fruit bouqet! ^^

 

 

The end. :D

 

I totally recommend you watch Alo-Hello 3. There are some parts I left out and its seriously a great DVD. These girls could totally advertise Hawaii and people would start visiting by the masses. Also, the DVD is very relaxing and cute. I watched this in the midst of a panic attack and enjoyed it very much ^^

Bests

Best Group Single

C/C by High King has to be the best group single. Even the B side was worthy of being an A side it was so epic.

Best Soloist Single

Because I never fully listened to the entire Suppin Rock, I can't exactly say its the best soloist single. So as it was origionally a toss up between Nacchi's Screen and Ogamana's Suppin Rock, Nacchi wins.

Best Group Album

I liked COVER YOU. Alot. I even bought it. So even though there weren't any origional songs in it, COVER YOU by Morning Musume wins.

Best Soloist Album

Not a single soloist released an album with except Koharu. And... I don't like Koharu. So I'm leaving this blank.

N/A.

Best PV

Screen. It was so pretty and artistic, and since I caught the photography bug, I really wanted to do some type of photoshoot on that set.

Group With Best Overall Releases

Buono!. Hands down. All their singles this year were full of win.

Best New Group (debuted in 2008)

MilkyWay. I can't stand Koharu but Yuu and Sayaka have good vocals. Sayaka reminds of myself actually ^^;

Best New Soloist (debuted in 2008)

Mano Erina. While I don't like her voice or her work, I have to say, she certainly is the "it" girl of Hello!Project right now.

Best Established Group (did not debut in 2008)

Of course I'm going to say Morning Musume.

Best Established Soloist (did not debut in 2008)

Abe Natsumi. I love her voice so much. Its like, soprano and alto AT THE SAME TIME.

Best Photobook

I don't look at the photobooks much, but I'm going to have to say Very Reina because looking at the scans I like all the clothes she wears :D And of course, Reina is very photogenic.

Hottest Idol of 2008

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Chinami has gotten quite pretty this year. Also, her personality is very outgoing and I like it. (of course we all know that I think Mari is always the best idol)

 

Worsts

Worst Group Single

LALALA Shiawase no Uta by C-ute. Its so repetitive and boring and bubblegum pop-ish.

Worst Soloist Single

Pa Pancake by Kusumi Koharu. WHO SINGS ABOUT PANCAKES?

Worst PV

Charisma Kirei by Melon Kinenbi. For goodness sakes they could have atleast made a PV instead of mashing together concert footage.

Worst Vocalist of 2008

Berryz Kobo's very own Sugaya Risako. Must I say more? Just watch the RisakoxAiri duet of VERY BEAUTY and you'll know what I'm talking about.

Least Attractive Girl of 2008

I honestly don't think theres a single girl in H!P who is not attractive in any way. They all have good personalities and if they don't have personalities they have looks. And if they don't have either... well I'm yet to find someone like that. 

Today in the mail I received a beautiful package from MorningBerryz... hm I wonder what it could be ;]

Well first of all, the wrapping was so pretty I was extra careful as to not tear it. lol

 

Yesh~! MB said that the 2001 Sweet Morning Plate that I won would come in time for Christmas, and I'm so happy that it came today, on Christmas Eve. I don't really mind the box being torn up, since the box I keep all my H!P CD's in is torn up as well (friend did a backflip, landed on CD box...) xDD

 

I was surprised by how small it was lol I guess small plates is how the Japanese stay so skinny ;P But its so cute~! I love how when you brush your hand across the drawings you can feel the little bumps of the paint. And I know this is going to sound REALLY weird, but it smells good too ^^;

OK I'm weird.

Obviously my home girl Mari's drawing caught my eye first, but by a land slide my favorite is none other than KonKon's.

And Keichan's is right next to Konno's... haha its funny how her handwriting is the same when she writes in English.

 

I can just imagine a little kid waking up on Christmas morning and then getting covered in ribbons :D

 

This plate is just so cute I cannot thank MorningBerryz enough. I will definatly keep it in a safe place and pass it down, as I'm sure I'll be getting my kids into H!P even after the groups are long gone.

 

Merry Christmas everyone <33 Lets hope its a white one, or in MB's case, a green one :P
