Dance de Back On! (Or, Dance de Bakoon) (Or Whatever Tsunku said it was this week)

Whatever the title, this release kicks so much ass that I can't wait to talk about it.


As far as the song goes, I love the chorus a lot. I don't think it's just the vocal melody, since that alone doesn't sound that unique, but it must be the chords underneath it or something else. There are some awkwardly long pauses in the vocals at times that I wish were filled up with something else, but other than that I can't complain a whole lot about this.

The verse I don't love though, the voices are meant to be kind of dragged out and whiny, which leads it to sound unmelodic and doesn't lend itself to being a hook. But the chorus is great.

The PV is great. Proof that you can make a greenscreen PV just fine, thank you, if you put in time to do editing and blind your watcher with flashing lights.

Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, looks awesome in this PV. Even Mai, even Chisato. Airi looks even especially good. And it's not done in an over-sexual way at all, they all just look stunning in a way that they might look if they were about to go clubbing or something.

But you know who really steals the show?





"Me, bitches."


Chisato kicks my ass so much in this PV it's not even funny. All of her lines are spot on, delivered with that powerful vibrato she has. Some of her lines in the second chorus are a bit too high for her, IMO, but she still gives them her trademark touch. You go, Chisa-puppy.

But, hey, she's not the only one looking good.



A good start to a PV, right?













Maimi abs FTW.









Beautiful <3






Not that the PV's perfect. There are a few parts that make you cringe a bit...







Uhhh...








"I dunno about this, you guys..."






But hey, when we saw the Massara Blue Jeans dance, we knew this was coming, didn't we.

So, all in all, perhaps my favorite release from C-ute ever, and in the broad scope of things a super-fun song and PV that gives every member of C-ute justice.

I hope Tsunku continues writing and handing out lines to C-ute with this in mind.


Coming up still...

That GO!GO!7188 reveiw.
Berryz new concert is coming out soon...
Probably something else.
