Morning Musume Yomiuri land East

The concert in celebration of their coupling singles album
Their outfits unnerve me
im not used to daytime concerts

Hand Made City:
Good to see this song again live
I still think Kamei shouldnt have Fujimoto mikis lines
Wheres the JunJun solo??

Love and peace! Hero ga yattekita:
I love the happiness of this song
all the members were very friendly
good performance

Kimagure Princess:
They really do not sound live in this
but then with all the effects on their voices maybe its too hard

Inspiration:
Just a happy feel good song
where everyone got a solo
Was sung pretty well
its so fast though i couldnt keep up with the lyrics :)

Subete wa ai no chikara:
Yay I havent seen this song live before
the dance is simple
the singing is pretty good

Nature is good:
some energetic singing from Niigaki
a bit of a niigaki tanaka dominate
Niigaki really got into the song

Please jiyuu no tobira:
some people pairings i did not expect

Sexy boy soyokaze ni yorisotte:
Good performance
i havent seen this one live before either
it was sung really well
Mitsui got Yoshizawa Hitomis lines

Sono bamen de bibiccha ikenai jan:
JunJun tried to kiss Niigaki
her face was awesome as she turned away!!

Happy Night:
A song I havent even heard before
They seem to have added their own happy flair to the song

Koi Ing:
I dont like this song as the end
although they use it to kind of calm down and warm down at the end
Its kind of slow
but the tune sounds like a positive one

Im not used to this day time thing
they didnt even have a costume change
though the concert was only short compared to normal

Pika Pika! Morning Musume concert tour 2010 spring

Moonlight Night

This is a very cool song

Though Lyric distribution seems to be

the usual ARRE (Ai Risa Reina Eri) with a splash of Sayu

That could be more original

though the group feels too small now

not enough diversity in sound

though if Tsunku actually used 8th gen as more than space fillers they might help



Kimagure Princess

Same as normal

i'm positive her lyric distribution in this song was done purposely to make covering her lines easier when she left. As in they didnt need to bother



Renai Revolution 21

The inclusion of this song is rather odd to me

but I guess they needed another song to increase the length of the concert
Im also sick of this song



Aishite Aishite Ato Ippun

Considering Onna ga medatte etc

was just released I would have thought Nakidasu kamo shirenai yo

would have been the b side performed

it is a good song though

and the curiosity for me of who sung Koharu's lines

My guess: Linlin
Actual: LINLIN!!!!!!!!


Nanchatte Renai

Good live I think

Michishige Sayumi got Koharu's lines

and since they skipped the second verse

it was kind of the same not too different



Shouganai Yume Oibito

in the first chorus Sayumi replaced Koharu and Im not sure that Tanaka actually sang her lines in the chorus it may have just been Sayumi and Mitsui
I think this was the only place where someone else sang her lines

for her lines with Tanaka I actually think she wasnt replaced
and Reina just got a solo

In the last line : sore na no ni anata ga suki she may also have not been replaced


Ano hi ni Modoretari

A nice Niigaki Ai combo

not much more to say

The dance is quite cute with umbrellas
the outfits are too
Niigaki is really pretty in this

Osaka Oshiinen

Cool song although it doesnt seem to fit for some reason

I love Mitsuis lines in the bridge



Ooki Hitomi

I love how Sayu's voice fits the electronisation perfectly

Its like her voice is made for it

I definately love this song

the outfits are cow boy based

Resonant Blue

this song again

Koharus lines with takahashi and tanaka werent replaced as far as I could see
Her first solo line was replaced by Tanaka
and her first Help mes by Takahashi
and second help mes by tanaka

Tsunku must still include it in the recent hits he has to show at the concerts

though it was mentioned in an MC they didnt have a lot of time to rehearse this concert so they had to stick to stuff they'd done recently.

which explains renai Revolution



Namida bit...

wont understand this until i see it live



Annnnd the all powerful medley

I hate medleys though

I would rather they had a long concert and just played all the old songs

or at least played the songs in the medley a lot longer

anyway it includes:

Love Machine (isnt this retired? at least for a while but its still in EVERY concert)

The Peace (another recently used one and Its one I dont like)

Kanashimi Twilight ( I dont like this song but yay mittsi solo )

Koi No Dance Site ( I love this song play more of it )

OmG Roman my dear boy ( I'm so happy right now but omg IshiRikas lines got BUTCHERED by what sounds like Reina)

Koko ni iruzee (Too many men come to these concerts god when they make the audience sing its gross)



Ame no Furanai

this song is very pretty

and im really happy for the JunJun solo

but its kind of being over used now

Its also on their last 2 albums although in one the majority is in Japanese

and this one is chinese

that does not make it a different song though

Still it is powerful and beautiful



Onna Ga Medatte Nande Ikenai

Just their song live...

Can't hear the people im interested in so meh



321 Breaking out

Yet another song I don't like making an appearance



Mikan

I like this song

despite its lack of popularity

its something of the old era of Morning Musume creeping back into the current generation

sounds like Takahashi got Kusumi's intro lines

and her solo by the sound of it. Could be Kamei but I cant tell

Im so confused... again



Genki Pika Pika!

cool song



Loving you Forever
Pretty song
and do i detect long JunLin solos!
Very nice and sentimental


How Do you like Japan
Very energetic by the sounds of it!


Namidacchi
This is a sweet up beat song

The new Generation

S/mileage is now going to be graduating eggs and entering Hello! Project
at least something is happening in the Hello! Project world
so little has been happening it had been starting to get almost boring
Im happy for this group though I like their music

Kusumi Koharu's graduation
this was a shock
I guess Tsunku thought it was time for a change
personally I want to see some auditions go ahead for morning Musume
it would be interesting

I've felt lately that Morning Musume is lacking a certain energy and uniqueness
they used to possess
the girls chosen by Tsunku generation 6 onwards have really felt just like image holders
they are not the girls who each had something unique about how they looked
and were so unique in their personalities,
gone are the days where they were filled with energy and competition

I still like the group but they are filling a different image now

All the best to Kusumi Koharu

Nanchatte Renai

Its kind of nice to hear a tiny bit of JunJun
and for Mitsui to have a solo... even if its taken up in the rap.
At least everyone gets a line
The lyric distribution is improving since Resonant Blue where Generation 8 were literally only backup singers.
I like generation 8. Junjun has potential I think
Not a shock to the amount of Takahashi Ai and Tanaka Reina
Koharu still has a long way to go before she really should be given such a long solo
Though I do understand the contrast and sound they are trying to make

go here for the colour coded lyrics. My favourite site
http://www.projecthello.com/momusu/nanchatte.html

In shouganai Yume oibito the solo volume was:
Takahashi Ai / Tanaka Reina
Kamei Eri / Niigaki Risa
Michishige Sayumi
Kusumi Koharu / Mitsui Aika
JunJun / LinLin

Nanchatte Renai:
Takahashi Ai/ Tanaka Reina
Niigaki Risa/ Kamei Eri
Michishige Sayumi / Kusumi Koharu
Mitsui Aika
JunJun/Linlin

A bigger shuffle of Lyric distribution per song would be nice
but at least Junjun and Linlin get 3 solo words each lol
