Single AKB48 43rd [Kimi wa Melody] (2016/03/09)

I actually kind of liking the next gen song more than the main song. It seems to me that the song is more down to earth. The MV is also simpler, less extravagant, but hit closer to the heart. Everybody looks cute and innocent.

 

Huge exposure meaning the couple of music show performances? Well in that case I guess I see why because those were pretty bad imo

I think HN did well digitally after 365nichi because it also had the exposure from cm tie-ins

 

It is in the weekly top 10 at #3 so I'm not sure what you are talking about.

Not only that, 365 is still ranking in the weekly top 10 at #6!

And if Halloween night stayed in the top 10 for two weeks, maybe it wasn't such a trash song after all...

 

KwM was also performed at Annin'se seitansai with Taniguchi Megu as center.

 

And your argument to support this statement is??.... You seem to feel pretty strongly to use all CAPS. Care to elaborate or should we just guess?

What's wrong w/ a little sunshine & energetic happy dance celebrating youth & beach frolicing?

 

Same here. A summer without a bikini single is...less summery...

 

Ever heard of that thing called gravure?

 

Ever heard of 'A thief believes everybody steals'?

 

It seems that the graduates will be performing on Music Station.

thats from last week.

its the third day this song has been out from top 10. check the daily rankin.

for me its trash, but well its not that surprising. its japan afterall, its a place where even children song like youkai taisho can swept out the chart. and what is it the name of silly song from comedian wich make a hit not so long ago ? rasun gorerai ? lol

 

lol, I am the exact opposite. I think KwM is trash and that GF and HN are good.

 

Two million is a no.

That time when kitahara rie looked so damn cute and music station cameraman didn't agree with me at all. That non stop zooming in was so...

 

idk why but the opening is so awkward and cringeworthy. and their voice is all over place in the beginning. did they really did lesson together? (esp. the graduates) like they just put the graduates there

 

Average performance, it's hard to look good with very few rehearse at all.
Hence why so many close ups to try to mask all their lackings.
Even their past slow paced songs looked better.
