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.

Up Front Youtube channels

Not sure if anyone knows this but Up Front have some recordings of Matsuura Aya' lives at the cotton club.



This Channel is called UpFrontTunes.

I think this channel is for all music acts under UFA that are not with H!P or NGP nor T-Pistonz+KMC GOOD (But there are no YuiKaori PV's considering that they are members of UFA's Happy Style company and Noto Arisa, who's basicly plasted on the first page of that site, is also a member and she has videos up on UFA's channel.)

But for all those wanting to see Ayaya perform and not have to hurry to watch it because they are affraid that it might get taken down, click here

That Time Again

Can't seem to get use to using a laptop again.

Anyway, it's that time again when i reveal the results of my polls. But i have a problem with 2 of them.

I DON'T LIKE TIES FOR 1ST PLACE.

Both the Berryz and C-ute Champion polls have members tieing for 1st place. Momo and Miya, Nakky and Chisa. I've made changes to those polls so everyone can vote again. and maybe Captain can win this time.

As for the others.

Eri won the MM 6th Gen poll with 5/11 votes. Tanaka 3/11, Miki 2/11 and Sayu, the current H!P Champion of this blog, as voted by you, the readers, only got 1 vote......and that was in the last couple of days.

Kanon is the S/mileage Champion with a win of 6/17votes. Saki was close with 5/17, Ayaka had 4/17 and Yuuka, the one who got a PB and solo DVD first out of the group, the one who is "most loved" out of the group, only got 2 votes (i know, i'm being a real bitch again, sorry)

and finally the album poll

These Three ladies each got 5/19 votes while Tsuji got only 4/19. I think i'll leave this poll up untill the actual results come in.

The new polls are

MM 8th Gen Champ

Vote for

Second poll, Who'll win Part 1 To End Nov 3rd

AKB48 Beginner 

Muten Musume Appare Kaiten Zushi!

Second Poll Who'll Win Part 2 to end Nov 24th

SKE48 1, 2, 3, 4, Yoroshiku

Morning Musume Onna to Otoko no Lullaby Game

Will be posting ways in which, i think MM can win against SKE48 later.

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?
