H!PE

~ HAPPY BIRTHDAY Shibata Ayumi ~

Ayumi! I sort of know her, from Melon Kinenbi and Tanpopo. She was a H!P member from 2000 to 2009, but she's most known for her part in MK, which had the same line up for it's entire 10 years. And now the Melon girls are disbanding!! (x wx) Anyways, moving on.

Member of The Week: Tokunaga Chinami! This is something new I am going to do here on H!PE, just for fun. And if you like H!P & chitchatting and forums are your thing; you should take a peek at hellproject.com's forum. There you can vote for the Member of the week!

So yeah, I just wanted share something totally random I noticed.

Momo, Saki, Risako; all with no nose! Lol, it's so like me to notice something like that. I saw it one day and thought it was funny, that the H!PE is in the exact right place to block out all three. And it's all the symbols too! Momo~ Captian! Rii+ (omg, new nickname learned!)



The chorus to this song is so freaking catchy. Overall, I like this single, but not oodles and oodles; I've listened to it like five times within the hour and I can't do it again, lol. I've got to say, the little dance during the chorus is pretty fun. & Homigosh, so many cute hairstyles in this! Yeah, a lot of it is basic stuff, but it's still adorable!

Yuko's hair is more bareable in this, even more so since I'm not shocked about it like before. And I like that Gomaki and Nacchi aren't hogging camera time or lines too badly. The matching outfits look awesome, and the fluffy different colored ones are kind of fun; they grew on me as I watched. The big purple hat is a little too much though xD & wow, Mari looks really good in her outfit; pretty.

GAH, it's happening! This song is growing on me as I type. It's fun and the girls sound great~


Inspiration! ~ vfewnhfjkewnhfkj !!! This is Yuko's last single! NOOOO~ She really grew on me (;w;) So first was Asukacchi, then Ayappe, then Sayaka, and now Yuko. Which leaves Nacchi and Kaori as the only two from the first Gen. In this case, Nacchi is definitely my fave of the two.

But yeah! I'm not huge on this song. It's catchy and upbeat, and I kind of like the brass instruments in the background. But it's nothing special for me. Like many other B-sides, I feel sort of indifferent about it. I can listen to it, but it wouldn't be my first (or 10th) choice, more like my 100th or something.

So, I was trying to figure out the leadership of Momusu through the generations, and I think I got it right. Yuko was the leader of Momusu, and basically H!P as a whole. And the rest, as follows; Kaori, Mari, Yossi, Miki, and Ai is the current leader.



Awww~ This song is so sweet. I haven't heard many slow slow songs by Berryz, and I really like this one. I also think the slow tempo and pretty melody (gosh I love those notes on the chorus) suit the lyrics. Another great song by Berryz :'D

I've been trying to keep the percents for the three groups about the same, but I was just thinking about how I wanted to cover Buono as well. So maybe I'll do 1-2 songs from each group every time, no matter the percent. That way I can finish with C-ute and get a start on Buono. idk for sure yet, just an idea swirling about in my head.

Momusu; 23 out of 85 songs ~ 27.05%
Berryz; 12 out of 44 songs ~ 27.27%
C-ute; 7 out of 27 songs ~ 25.92%
