I didn't even realize that H!P artists were still performing things for Hello Cover to be honest lol. After Kamei Eri did 9, I basically thought it stopped there. Chisato did 2, and now I found out that a few more have been released by Momusu members that i'm happy to hear about. I can't wait till it's Aika's turn~
So these are the new songs that have been covered by 3 Momusu members:
(lol beasted)
Btw, new Morning Musume profile picture was uploaded today to Hello!Project's official website.
Okay, so literally overnight, I find out a bunch of new H!P related things. I'm pretty sure you guys know most of this already, but yeah...i'm a little slow today, seeing as i'm back in school *sobsob*
SO WHATS NEW YOU ASK?
HO HO HO!
1. Morning Musume Spring 2011 Titled - New Genesis Fantasy DX ~ Welcome 9th Generation Members ~
Title sounds really cool, but rather long. "Rival Survival" was so rockin' and easy to remember. It was also easy to search for concert goods! New Genesis Fantasy DX Welcome 9th Generation Members is a mouthful. It sounds promising though, seeing as "fantasy" makes it sound like they're going to sing Fantasy11 songs. Let's just wait and see what happens hmm?
2. Okai Chisato 2nd HelloCover is Romantic Ukare Mode
I've always been a fan of Miki's Romantic Ukare Mode, so it was refreshing to hear Chissa sing it. She did really well.
3. Hello!Project 2011 Winter Concert is gonna release 2 different DVD's
There is going to be an A and a B version of the concert released, each with different setlists. [A] will have all the regular setlists, while [B] will have a bunch of full length (i think) solo songs sung buy various members which I certainly look forward to seeing!
4. Buono's Zassou no Uta PV has been released:
I'm still getting used to this song, seeing as it is so different from anything else Buono! or even H!P has produced lately. It has a different feel to it. I like it so far~
5. Berryz Kobo 7th Album Announced / USA Release
Berryz Kobo is releasing their 7th album on March 30th. This should be interesting seeing that it is going to be right before their trip to Seattle, so I wonder how much of an influence that this album is going to have on their first live USA performance?
6. Takahashi Ai starring in a play called "Dance of the Vampire"
Dunno, sounds pretty random, but i'd love to see Aichan in a sexy vampire costume!
7. Yaguchi Mari had designed and is the voice actor for a new Digimon called 'Panbachimon'
Oh Marippe~ the lulz never stop with you do they ^o^
So it seems like, the newest gossip on the block is that Kamei Eri is going to release covers of older H!P songs on iTunes. Well I think that's just darn cool. Since she got to pick her own songs, she must be really excited to do this. From what I read, each month, a new H!P member will release their own sort of mini-album on iTunes with their personally selected songs. I think this is a great chance for underdogs like everyones favorite Aika, Maasa, and Nakky to get some well deserved attention.
Even though I think this is a great idea, it's just another thing to add onto the list of projects thrown Eri's way before she graduates from H!P. I really do like her, but throw the underdogs a bone or two won't ya Tsunku? Don't get me wrong, everything that Eri is getting is well deserved, and I have no issues with that, I just feel that Junjun and Linlin deserve do diligence, and they should be respected as well during all of this. It kinda makes me feel that this is all a KAMEI ERI GRADUATION with a small side order of Jun / Lin. I bet, too, at the grad concert, they are hardly going to be given the spotlight.
What was I talking about? Oh yeah, Hello Covers or something. It sounds like a great new project! What I would absolutely love to hear, is maybe singing outside of their own groups. For example, I'd love to hear Sudou Maasa sing something like Sakura Mankai. That would be great. Aika would sound so good singing Very Beauty if you asked me. I should write a list and send it to Aika.
What do you guys think about this new Hello Cover idea?
