Go, go monkeys!

Rating: 7.0/10

After a radio-rip and all that, I could probably say that I fell in love with the song. I don’t know too many people who do like the song, but I am one of the lovers, and I congratulate Berryz on a well done comeback to my iPod shuffle (I just stopped right after VERY BEAUTY, but I have developed a liking for their more recent singles.. just not as much as this ;D). But the PV could just use some twirking..

Alrighty, so I think I’m a little too late on all the High-King hype, but who says you can never be late? (: Anyways, I heard about High-King on International Wota, and other blogs all saying that this is an R&B single that can be hated or loved, depending on some ways. I for one, am one of the lovers.

Big Update!

June 23, 2008

So, if some of you read in the “What the heck are we?” page, I was deciding on a new name for the blog. I thought resource -JPOP- sounded too strange, and so here’s a personal favorite title of mine..

Rating: 9.6/10

Ah, Perfume. It seemed like GAME wasn’t enough pleasure for people, and here we have a new single that’ll be sure to spark our ears into some electropop fantasy. The hype for this single began not long after GAME released, giving Perfume fans more to love in 2008, and I was part of this Perfumania, and awaiting the PV after hearing the, as most had said on forums across the JPop globe, most poppiest of Perfume techno, an almost carbon copy of plastic smile (which is one of my favorite songs of GAME), preview of the single. And I couldn’t take the wait.

I kept to my word about those new artists! LOL, anyways, sifow’s is very much an interesting singer, and is usually compared to the likes of Ayumi Hamasaki (by her looks) and Koda Kumi (again, by her looks). I would probably have to agree on the Ayu part, but Kuu? Hell, no, where’d people get that? O_O She has a unique voice, although at times, she takes the Ayu comparison too far and goes off trying to sound like her, but she is one hell of a GYARU (brown-skinned Japanese girls), a HOT gyaru.

So, a year ago, I reviewed AAA’s SUNSHINE PV. Of course, I promised to people that I would review AAA. A year later, look at what I’m doing. It’s sad )= BUT! At least we got some AAA. And this time, they’re experimenting with some new rock sound meshed with dance-pop. Let’s see what they have in store for us!
