Does anyone know what CM is that for? Why are they making Nogi perform an AKB song tho? (instead of their own song / getting AKB to do it)
^ Maybe for the novelty of seeing Nogi sing an AKB song. IMO, they sang it Nogi style, which usually doesn't fit energetic and bubbly songs. I've always deemed Natsu Free and Easy would have fit AKB or SKE better. Still, I can see the merit of the perf specially for people who love Nogi's graceful, princess image. While of course Yuko centering this will always be the favorite both for sentimental reason and her energy, I personally enjoyed the Nishino Miki centered kenkyusei perf in one of the sousenkyos before.
Nothing is wrong, I think they just took a few steps ahead of themselves lol its all good Plus they not the only ones bashing the CM, in fact the whole Japanese 48G netizens are currently doing so as we speak lol For suits and dresses. Sales campaign for freshman. Mens half priced ladies 20% off But i have no idea the reason behind why they cover the song. Probably the contractor was too noob to tell the difference of AKB and Nogi or they are evil and just want to watch the world burn http://www.haruyama-co.jp/
No one was bashing Nogi. Everyone was just implying that they prefer the original over the Nogi version. Chill.
Spoiler: On a rather happy news... It's twin-tail day and tons of members posting their pics up social network, happy hunting!
My take: I prefer one mic in front, not two. Also, it isn't complete. One of my favorite parts of the original is when Acchan steps forward to join Yuko and they are back to back with heads turned to the front (and after Acchan graduated, it was Paruru), but this version is cut short. It is really hard for any singer or group to duplicate an iconic song (think Bob Dylan covers).
Is anyone surprised that Nogi would do a tame version of Hebirote? Because that's just the way they do thing, they're probably more worried about messing up their hair than the performance. Having listened (and enjoyed) a lot of Nogi music recently I concluded that almost all of it is interchangeable with AKB's music, but there are types of songs that the 48-groups do that Nogi just wouldn't do. Can you imagine Nogi doing songs like Te wo Tsuniginagara or Seishun no Lap Time?
They just wanted to make people react like in this thread lol. It doesn't have anything to do with dresses and suits but it does an impact that will be linked to the store. And it may make people think "is Nogi already as popular as AKB was at that time?"
Knock yourself out http://shiba.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/akb/1486023512/l50 If you wanna read some real nasty flaming war, just go to that youtube video comment section where someone posted earlier lmao This one too>> if the video does not show watch the video here ===================================================================================== The plasticity of AKB is much higher than Nogi thats all Nogi is less flexibile in style wise but they do excel in their perfection of beauty aesthetics which AKB cannot even compare with their top line (Just for funz) Does anyone remember this? if the video does not show watch the video here
hahah that aitakatta cover..i remembered people make a lot of fuzz and flame war. many thought nogi is gonna be akb copycat but it wasnt true at all. that pretty much stupid decision by whoever made that. but then nogi is still aki-p group.
It says Special Medley, so... I'm gonna guess it's for Kojiharu's graduation or something. But if she's in the new single... I don't know.
But they havent annouced anything yet tho. Maybe they might promote the album/documentary song as part of the medley
