j-ongaku, lolita

wonder party

I get regular updates from YouTube for my subscribed channels and the AKB48 channel is one of them. I got excited when I saw the new video with Mayuyu (Watanabe Mayu) and Paruru (Shimazaki Haruka) as they were wearing lolita outfits. They wore it for the song 「初恋の鍵」 (Hatsukoi no Kagi) under the Team Surprise unit. Team Surprise is a one-shot unit…

uta wo utau

Quite a bit has been going on but I’ll take my time to fill in the gap since my last post. Since I made a status post on Facebook that I’ve perhaps found a new song to sing at KTV, I thought I’ll clear up some doubt on whether I memorise lyrics when I sing Japanese songs. The truth is…no,…

let’s go out

I had no idea Amo ventured into singing. She’s not my favourite lolita model, but who cares? I absolutely adore the outfit they are wearing…the one with the jester? bunny? ears.

morning musume 10th generation

Following the graduation of Ai-chan, つんく♂ has decided to add more girls to his famed group, モーニング娘。. I find that a little fast since the 9th generation members have barely blended in with the other members, but I guess つんく♂ couldn’t bear seeing モーニング娘。 become a smaller 8-member group compared to rival AKB48. Of the 9th generation members, I think…

tokyo skyscraper

A bit of an overdued post, but here’s my two cent’s worth of the SCANDAL concert… It began with a bit of chaos with the queue. Sis, Jie Yu and I arrived at 1.45pm to join the unofficial queue outside the theatre at LASALLE. Yes, it was an unofficial queue thanks to a note right where the entrance to the…

onna ga medatte naze ikenai

Morning Musume is going to release a new single soon and the PV for it is already out. I gotta agree with most that this isn’t one of their best songs. The tune isn’t really catchy. However, their costumes are nice. (Bonus points for being pink.) Don’t quite like the puffy accessory in their hair though. Who’s missing? Koharu. I’m…

hug me

My new song on replay mode. I don’t necessarily like their outfits or hairstyles in this PV… BUT. Miyabi, Risako, and Chinami with lined eyes = WIN.

one room disco

My latest favourite spin. Not as nice as “Dream Fighter,” but will definitely be one of my Perfume favourites. Kashiyuka has nice straight dolly hair~~~

days

I’m a sucker for ballads. I love Ayu’s new single and the pv for it. I don’t really like sad endings, so I sort of gasped when I watched the pv. You have to watch it to know why… I don’t care if she’s 30. She looked so cute when she was excited in the pv.

mihimaru GT

The first time I listened to a mihimaru GT song was “I Should Be So Lucky”. A remake of Kylie Minogue’s song. 1) I was curious to hear the remake. 2) I have heard people talking of mihimaru GT, but have never listened to their songs. By the way, the song was kinda cute. The second time I come across…
