I love it it was great ! The girls look BEAUTIFUL, the Music video is very nice and I like their version of the song. I'm quite curious about the lyrics and how it sounds to natives
But anyway I'm so in love with their management they are doing a wonderful job, I hope things will keep going smoothly for the girls in the future

 

The video looked really good! They pulled off the concept perfectly.

The vocals bother me a bit though... River needs slightly more powerful vocals, especially at the chorus

 

I agree with @trxsh I was hoping for a bit of a stronger vocal. Also, the girls looked WAY too cheerful.

It's an interesting concept, while our girls did look beautiful, they tried mashing up an original concept and what AKB did with their "River" MV and personally, it looked slightly weird. That focus on Cherprang though was strong, despite not being center.

Also, I personally think it was highly unnecessary with that racing gimmick thing. Normally, I'm fine when they team up with some other group, but they would go back and forth between the side story and the MV story. This time though, they went with opening and then closing it off with the start or finishing? of the race. Kind of moot, even if it was sponsored by them.

It was also interesting that they chose to introduce River Senbatsu and have Cherprang as the last one. Sure, she is BNK's captain, but she didn't center the song and she had a more..."powerful" look than all the others, like "River" is supposed to be.

Other than that, I still prefer the performance outfits over the secondary the girls had in the MV and I just liked it in general. Hopefully, netizens actually liked what they offered. "River" will still be one of my favorite songs from the "good-ol days" so, I welcome any new version with an open heart...and cleared ears, lol.

 

already 1 million views in 13 hrs.

 

^ Well, BNK said in 14, but, yay congrats! So, people were really anticipating this one. I'm not alone in this being one of my favorite songs!

---------------------------------------------------------------------
so no new song for album, I don't know what are they thinking about this.

 

updating thread

11.30PM
Thread updated.

Actually, I was hoping that there would be more songs in the album...

 

They just wanna sell a 2-shot ticket, In the insane price too(x3 of the single price)

Seem like they gathering massive money pile for something. They start selling the mercs all at once.
10th Photoset around a week ago, Album today, and the many things tomorrow. I can't keep up with it T T.

 

Actually the price is just the same as AKB48 albums, but the content is just worse... they could have added more songs and split the album into 2 types lol

 

If they do that, Imma burn dem office down. T T

The album ...cover (art?) is on Shopee now.

At first I thought it's a monolith or a crystal...
Is this some abstract art.... of river surfaces...
