Hello reader!
I haven't done a song & video review since October, which is really, really a long time. And it's a shame because there are so many awesome songs that were released.. I just couldn't motivate me to write reviews and I also didn't have that much time. It's so much easier to just write about some random little topic or to do an unboxing. But of course I still love doing whole reviews the most!!
So here I am FINALLY back with a new one!!!
It is Nogizaka46's latest single "Ima, Hanashitai Dareka ga Iru", which was released on October 28th 2015.
Like about every Nogizaka46 single, I also have to talk about this one, even though it has been out for a while and the new senbatsu will be announced today.
What's really special about it, is the line-up. Or even more the first line. For the first time we get a Double center in a Nogi single!! And what's even better, Maiyan and Naachan are those two centers! The most popular face and the handshake Queen. Since I'm a big fan of both, this of course makes me really happy. I wanted Maiyan to come back as a center since forever and I always love Naachan's songs so much *-* The other two girls in the front line are MaiMai and Misa. OMG! I always thought that those two didn't get enough promotion compared to how popular they are (especially Misa). And now they are in the Top4! I was still hoping for Misa to only come into Fukujin and now she's at the front.. :3 This is so awesome.. especially since MaiMai will graduate soon.. ._.
The rest of the line-up isn't thaaat exciting. I'm a bit bummed that Wakasama and Reika are in the last row, but okay.. they are always switching them, so I guess they will be back in Fukujin soon. Adding to that, it's nice to see Ashurin and co being more pushed. Nogi seems to do a better job than AKB in pushing the young girls.
I guess I'm really happy about this single line-up!
So now about Ima, Hanashitai Dareka ga Iru.
When I first heard the song, I didn't think it was such a special song. But the more I listened to it, the more I started to like it. It is a really beautiful song and there are a lot of emotions. Thelyrics are also very pretty and meaningful. Now I really love it and I think it's one of Nogi's best singles!
What actually helped me a lot in loving this song so much is the video. So let's take a look at it:
The first thing we can see is Maiyan's back. Even just from the back, her hair looks so beautiful *-*
Ima, Hanashitai Dareka ga Iru
Naachaaaaan!!!
Is she stalking someone?
She's watching the other girls at their dance rehearsal.
And they seem to have so much fun. Aaaah, loving those smiles! *.*
Woah, Maiyan, what are you doing on MaiMai's back? XD
Naachan is SO CUTE!
Maiyan noticed her..
Maiyan: Why are you stalking on us?
The girls are going on a walk now. Look how classy they all look! I really love their style *-*
And Maiyan looks like a princess
Oh, so they found Naachan now.
Maiyan: Hey, you!
Nanase is such a loner.. And she isn't responding
Seems like she can't her Maiyan
So now Maiyan is touching her.
Nanase: What do you want?
And now we can see that she doesn't speak. She's communicating with sign language
Look at that beauty!
And this one too *-*
Waaaah, they are so nice. They are researching on what Nanase said
Minna Tanoshisou - You all look like you're having fun
Naachan also wants to have fun with them?
Where is Nogi always filming their videos.. The landscape always looks so beautiful.
Nice hat!
She looks so proud, that's adorable!
Maiyan: I WANT YOU!
Anata mo - You, too!
Aaaaw, she's inviting her to join them!
So Naachan copies her move..
.. and they sorta dance now?
They are all dancing now?
What a cutie :3
Tomodachi - friends
THAT SMILE
So they are already going again..
Mata ne - See ya
Woohooo, Naachan joined the rehearsal.
But since she can't hear, she can't follow the rhythm of the music..
But doctor Ikoma comes quickly to help
And Naachan is getting better!
Seriously, this whole video she looks like a proud mom xD
Ikuchan: Yeah, let's just participate in this dance contest!
We can do it!
Dance contest on the 26th!
It's so cute how they are learning a bit of sign language for her
And they are even sharing the same drink brand, lol
The training continues..
And what are tehy doing now? Homework?
They draw a picture of two hands. That's a nice picture with a lot of meaning considering Naachan's condition :)
Yeah, Naachan draw it
I see, I see. They used it on T-shirts for every member! That's so nice..
Happy Reika, cute Ashurin and a surprised Wakasama.
Why is she so cute??
She's even practicing in her room!
Parents: We will go to New York!
Whut?
Naachan: When?
On the 26th, which is the same day as the dance contest.. And which also happens to be in less than 2 weeks accordning to the picture of her calendar earlier.. that doesn't make any sense.... *sigh*
She's packing now..
.. and doesn't seem to show up to rehearsals
That's cool!
Doushitano? - What's up?
*waves*
Sayounara?
NOOOOooooooOOOO... Naachan T.T
Maiyan at the dance contest
Maiyan: No, we can't do this without her..
Nanase at the train station
And the others are running now.. running to the train station? :ooo
Please appreciate the beauty of Mai and Misa.. And the scrrentime they get because of being in the first row *-*
Queen even looks amazing when she's running
Maiyan: NANASE!
Aaaaw, this is so cute!
Naachan: Why?
Maiyan: We can't do it without you!
Cutie!
Aaaaw, now they are together again
And they are dancing t the train station
Would've been even better if Naachan also wore the t-shirt, but it's still super duper cute
MaiMai is so beautiful!
Ashurin is the cutest and Wakasama is totally stealing the show even from the back XD
Sayuri has been sparkling lately
The beautiful t-shirt
I also love, how they are really just wearing plain t-shirts and trousers. A nice change from the Idol clothes
Gaaaah, those smiles
It's time to say goodbye now
Noooo, don't cry NAachan :'(
See ya
*cries*
So now is the scene from the beginning..
And Maiyan starts crying
....
and I'm also crying...
Wow, what a beautiful video!!! The story is simply a masterpiece, easy to understand and beautifully filmed.
I really love the meaning of helping each other, especially when someone can't do something as easily as the others. It's really hard for a deaf person like Naachan to perform a dance together with other people, but they helped each other so it was a success!!
It was focused on Naachan and Maiyan a lot, but we still saw most of the other members..
This has to be one of the best videos of Nogi ever and I actually had to cry when I watched it.
I love this single a lot and hope Nogi will continue as awesome as this!!
