Happy Easter!!!!! :D
Aaaaaand like last year I will again review a song today. Perhaps I will do this as a regular thing.. review something on easter. ;) I mean, it can't be so hard to review some random video once a year, right?Anyways, back to the song: Today I will review Morning Musume's 40th single Nanchatte Renai.
Oh, the memories. I surely miss this line-up and I just can't believe that only Sayumi is left from that time. I mean, who would have guessed that she would be last one to leave the ship??? Or that she would be in the most singles? xD Well, I always wanted to review a Platinum Era song (Yup, not only because of Sayumi). As I said, the line-up is really amazing. I mean, it isn't perfect (when was it?) but it is definetely one of the best!! I especially love that Ai-chan and Gaki-san were still part of the group as they are two of my all-time favourites.. And let's not forget about our little turtle Kamei-chan.. And of course the pandas, Jun Jun and Lin Lin. The miracle Koharu was still screaming her way through the singles (nothing against her, but her voice isn't the greatest..), Mittsi was awkwardly smiling and Reina smirking at the cameras.. And of course Sayumi's face was a lot chubbier than it is now.. lol. xD So yeah, this is an interesting line-up..
But now it's time to talk about the song. Hmm, where do I start. Actually, Nanchatte Renai was the first song I ever listened to by Morning Musume!! v(^^)v What I immediately liked about the song, is that it's pretty dark and mysterious. And since it's a song about a fake love, it is also pretty sad.. I really like the sad piano beginning, it's so beautiful. The singing parts are of course also very nice. I mean the vocals feels so melancholic and sad but they are still nice to listen too. Somehow I really love these melancholic Japanese song.. xD I think it's cool, that there are almost only solo lines in this song. Well, of course Ai-chans vocals dominate here and she gets the most lines. For example she taked half of both verses.. What's interesting is that the rest of one verse is sung by Koharu and the other by Sayumi. These two are considered as two of the weakest vocalists of Momusu ever, so that's quite odd for such a vocal-heavy song. BUT I don't think they sound that much out of place. Of course their parts aren't as good as Ai-chan's part, but I still think it's interesting to hear such high-pitched and squeaking vocals after the deep ones of Ai-chan... The rest of the solo lines go to Reina, Risa and Eri. I actually think Reina sounds very good in this song. There are songs where she sounds a bit odd, but here she is perfect in my opinion. Risa always sounds great and Eri is also awesome here.. Especially her ''Homono ni~'' is pretty nice! Sadly JunLin and Mitsui only get a few shared rap lines, a few shared Nanchatte's and a shared part in the last chorus.. Well, as sad as this is, it was normal and couldn't be changed. At least Mitsui can shine a bit at the rap parts, as her rapping kinda is the only thing I like about her.. xP
Seems like I have a lot to talk about here.. lol. Well, I totally love this song and I never really talked about this line-up before so yeah..
But don't worry, I will look at the video now!!!
Morning Musume and the title. Wow, nice not to see a number at the end of the group name (Oh hi, Momosu '14). What would this be? Morning Musume '09??
What's that?? An actual room? Like, really??? This is sooo different from all the boxes we get lately.. And I love these abandones and old places so much. (Look at °C-ute's Aitte motto Zashin..)
Oh, three girls are already standing there!
And with the sad piano sound the rest of the members come slowly.
And here is Reina not smiling for a change. Hi, Reina! ;)
Reina: My emotions have to fit this song..
Oh, you're a genius!
Oh, it's so nice to see Eri!! Even though she looks pretty evil here..
Nice to see you, too, JunJun!!
I have to say, I really love the outfits for this video. They are so classy yet beautiful and elegant! And I also love the little hat everyone has!
I think Koharu grew up veeeeery fast. I mean, wasn't she like 17 here? (I looked it up and I was right!!! :D)
She was just a little girl a few singles before and here she looks pretty mature..
Oh, Eri looks so beutiful here. And I really love that hairstyle. This is probably her best hairstyle ever (in my opinion).
AI-CHAN!!! Wow, she looks soooo beautiful here! Seriously, wow...
It's always funyn to get some screenshots where the girls are all concentrated on dancing. Jun Jun looks pretty funny here.. But also a bit evil.. :'D
Okay, the dance is nothing compared to the recent dances, but it's still very beautiful.
Gaki-saaaaaan!!! OMG, I miss her so much.. *cries*
And LinLin. Well, at least she has a solo career now.. :)
Oh, ballerina's! This looks beautiful (even though Mitsui's smile is awkward).
Sayu-chan!!! Wow, she looks so young here.. Even though she was like 19 there.. xD Well, Sayumi probably will always look young and cute.
Lol, LinLin looks pretty funny there at the back.. While Sayumi is just standing there and staring at the sky..
I totally love this set. xD
And Aika looks also cute here, which is nice..
Damn, Eri looks so awesome!!!!!!
Eri: I won't lose! I'm the best!
Aika: Pf, what?
Mameeeeee!! I totally love her hair, it looks so cool..
The dance version alone is so amazing!! Oh, I'm pretty sure it was the dance version I watched first of this video.. haha.. xD
This girl.... she looks so fierce!
Ai-chan: I AM fierce!
Yep, you are..
And beautiful! Sooo beautiful!
Ai-chan: I can't handle my awesomness!
*-*
Koharu: Enough, Ai-chan...
Koharu: Let me shine for a while!
Koharu: See how tall I am?? Taller than Ai-chan..
Koharu: Hehehe, awesome, right?
Reina: Go away!
Reina: No one is as awesome as I am!!
Reina with dark hair... wooow..

Reina: I am so cute, neee~
Meh, well...
Sayumi: What do you think? I am the cutest!!
Sayu looks pretty cool and sassy here! xD
Sayu: I'm the master!! Bow down to me!
Lovely Eri!!
Aaaaaaww.. Just look at hat Sayu smile.
Sayu: Yatta, I did it!!!
Eri: Why isn't the focus on me?
One of the few JunJun solo shots!

Reina without any bows or anything??? What is this? xD
Oh, here she has a hat again..
Eri looks as if she wants to kill someone..
Reina: It's not me, right?
Who knows? xD
Reina: Whaaaaaat?
Stop it!
Oh, what's that.. New solo shots.
These clothes are also nice!
Koharu looks very pretty here.
And Gaki is still badass!
Ballerina's! Swing the legs!

More Gaki!
And more Ai. Her hair looks so different here..
Sayu likes to appear in my screen shots.. xD
And Ai-chan, too!
Sayumi: What did I say about bowing down? :p
Sayu: I know, I'm still the cutest..
Sayu: Let's hope I will be in Momosu for a very long time..
Don't worry, you will be ;)
At least there's no glitter..
Reina with hair accessoires.. eww.
Oh, a group picture! Isn't it beautifu-
KOHARU, do you wanna kill someone???
The rest of the girls.
Jun, don't look so bored..
Lin Lin: Is that a camera?
GAKI!
Gaki: I know I'm awesome!
No need to scream, Jun Jun! xD
Lin Lin: OMG, it really is a camera.. I have to look away, I have to look away..
Eri: Sekushii, desu ne!
Gaki: Hehehehe..
Gaki: I'm just so happy to be here!
Eri: ..with me?? :D
Eri looks so badass! I miss her!!!!!
The doll looks sad..
Looking badass - Gaki style..
Who's that? Koharu?
Reina fail!
Sayu: Let's stretch!
Jun Jun: I'm looking out of the window.. My life is so sad.
And finally a whole group shot. Koharu, we can't see Aika!
Koha: I don't care!

Yep, here she looks awesome!
But... don't try to act cute, okay?
There should have been more Lin Lin -.-'
Clap your hands!!
Gaki is so rocking this video..
This line-up <3
Awesome Ai-chan!!
THE END
Wow, this video is sooo beautiful. I again understand just why I fell in love with this group so much! The members look stunning, the dance is beautiful and the location is so damn cool! And I have to mention Ai-chan again. Wow, she looks soooo good here. She was the first one I recognized when I watched this video for the first time and yes, she was the first Momusu member I really, REALLY liked. So yeah, isn't she amazing here? ;) The others are, of course, also great. Gaki-saaaan!!!
Sooooo, I think it's clear that I totally love this single release!!! The song is awesome and the video is also so damn cool!! One of the best Momosu songs ever.
