Love Like Crazy

While i was looking for something on youtube for a future post thats coming up, i thought to my self, "How many times have they done this song?"

So i looked it up

1. Takahashi Ai, Kamei Eri, Shimizu Saki 2009 Version


2.Abe Natsumi, Matsuura Aya, Goto Maki 2005 Version (Original Line-up)


3.Goto Maki 2006 Version


4.Goto Maki 2007 Version


Personally, i love the song so i'm not too fussed which version i like the best cos al the girls here can sing. Altho, the most recent version is lacking in the energy that the original line up has (and the line distrubution the the original has as well)

So i put it to you, Which version of LOVE LIKE CRAZY do you prefer?




 
Poll will stay up untill i take down the Album poll.

Battle of the H!P Soloists

As you all know, Mano Erina and Natsumi Abe relased their singles last wednesday.

Now although Abe's single, Ame Agari No Niji No Youni, is really beautiful and shows us why Abe is s much better singer than Manoeri (you all know it true), it just couldn't beat Mano's Genkimono De Ikou!.

Mano came in at number 7

Abe came in at number 22

Now there are a number of reasons for this...

1. Abe hasn't been active as a singer since the end of 2008
2. Mano has been, like clockwork, releasing singles every 2 - 3 months since her major debut
3. Abe doesn't have H!P to help promote her anymore since they (basicly) kicked out all the elder club last year. And by help promote i mean using the collective H!P comcerts and solo concerts to introduce fans to the song
4. Mano have been, what i call PAA (Pulling An AKB, i.e plastering herself in magazine in just her underwear half the time (no dig at AKB, it's gotten them into the 2010 Asia Song Festival), in magazine recently
5. Mano has also been doing a load of dramas and movies recently and altho i think she should give up the singing and focus more on the acting, it has been a promotion waggon for her

Now while i think that Abe is the obviously better singer, it is a shame that she came so low. But Miss Mano, you really need to do better. When compared to your current H!P artists (not including S/mileage) your sales are bad.

• Morning Musume - Highest Chart Position = #1
• Berryz Koubou - Highest Chart Position = #3 (only due to poor promotion. Otakebi Boy should have gone #1)
• C-ute - Highest Chart Position = #2 (Everyday Zekkouchou is shit but it still got a higher place than you)

And compared to Abe, Goto and Matsuura while in H!P, your still just as bad

• Abe - Highest Chart Position = #2
• Goto - Highest Chart Position = #1
• Matsuura - Highest Chart Position = #2

Now i'm not hating on the girl but i think that UFA really need to find a new soloist asap. Yes Mano is cute, Yes she has a great body, yes she isn't singing those songs that make you wanna throw yourself under a bus and yes she is improving vocally but she wasn't good enough to begin with.

The conclusion to this is that for this Battle, It's Mano - 1, Ex H!P - nil.

The next battle is between Mano, Matsuura, Goto and Tsuji's new albums, again, all 4 releasing them on the same day, 24th November 2010.

From what i can gather, Tsuji's, which was just announced, is mainly aimed at mothers considering how she's pregres and been doing all sorts of stuff to do with snot-nosed brats (11-yr-old cousin . . . . . . nuff said, i'm really not a kids kinda girl)

Anyways, Whou would you Buy?

Poll Results

Firstly, Sorry for not being arould much but i was busy watching anime, anyone know of any romantic animes please let me know cos i really want to carry one watching ones like Clannan and Kimi ni Todoke.

Anyway, the polls.

So who looks good in a school uniform.....

7/9

2/9

Seams i have a lot of ABK fans out there, Granted they do have a lot more imagingation when it comes towards their costumes.

Now for the Momosu Champ

3/4 Votes, Kaori Iida came second with 1 vote and no one voted for Yuko, Ishiguro and Asuka.

So Abe is 1st Gen Momosu Champs.

Next up is 2nd gen. There will not be a poll for 3rd and 7th gens for obvious reasons.

Your choises are...

Again, 1 week to vote.

EDIT: Ther other poll is about which Kanon do you prefer, Wakeshima or Fukuda. click on the names to view their new songs.

Champion Of Champions Poll Results

Well as you can see....

Sayumi won the poll with 8/20 votes, so until a new champion is announced, Sayumi will be the theme of this blog.  Well done to Sayu and HELLO HELL!! (i hate pink)

So, Both Aika and Linlin took joint second with 4 votes, Momoworld came 4th with 2 votes and joint last was Chii and Gakisan with 1 vote each.

So that means another Picspam for Sayu as she is the Picspam champion plus maybe another as it was/is her birthday but i might do a videospam instead, not sure, comment below with what i chould do.

So it's time to start the new Champions polls. I'm starting with Morning Musume. Your choises are

You have one week.

Oh and how do you like the new layout? Personally, i can not stand pink.
