Ooohhhh~ Hold on Me~ Ah Tsunku and 90’s dance grooves. A match made in heaven. I think this song is a bit weird if you never heard music coming out of Japan in the second half of the 90’s. Artists like Namie, Speed, and Hikki were making sounds like this. Namie Speed Hikki These songs…

Juice=Juice – Sexy Sexy
Juice=Juice – Sexy Sexy作詞：つんく 作曲：つんく 編曲：平田祥一郎 So this song was done by a classic combination of Tsunku and Hirata Shoichiro. They were responsible for my favorite Juice=Juice song “Watashi ga Iu Mae ni Dakishimenakya ne,” and one of my favorite Morning Musume Songs “CHO DAI.” So this song is on a slick mid-tempo vibration, it could almost…

モーニング娘。’16『セクシーキャットの演説』作詞：つんく 作曲：つんく 編曲：大久保薫This song was composed by Tsunku and arranged by Okubu Kaoru. This song was released on November 23, 2016 and was Morning Musume’s 62nd single.

モーニング娘。’18 -『Are you Happy?』
モーニング娘。’18『Are you Happy?』 作詞：つんく 作曲：つんく 編曲：平田祥一郎Tsunku and Shoichiro. I have no other words. Classic combo. I generally won’t be talking about the idols in this space too much, but I am compelled to since this was Ogata’s last single. She looks so great in this video and she will be missed by me. I don’t think she…
つばきファクトリー「デートの日は二度くらいシャワーして出かけたい」
つばきファクトリー「デートの日は二度くらいシャワーして出かけたい」 作詞：つんく 作曲：つんく 編曲：江上浩太郎 SMFH, fricking Tsunku… You are making me seem like I have no variety and I just cover your songs!!!!!!!!! It kinda pisses me off. Egami Kotaro arranged the song. I personally remember him the most fondly from his work on Berryz Koubou’s 1 roku 3 zen man sou diet song. It was the…
H!P All Stars – Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, its just another idol song… Umeboshi Onigiri perfectly describes this song. A quick glance would have you think its a plain dish, but one only needs a couple bites to be transported to a whole new world. If something starts out “unremarkable”, when it becomes “remarkable,” that moment has a more lasting…

Akogare no Stress-freeLyrics and Composition: TsunkuArrangement: Hirata ShoichiroMusic Video: Nomura Toru Normally I do not engage in idol talk, but I always make exceptions when I’m moved. So this video was great because it showed the members of H!P in a way that shows the popularity of the members and a slice of personality for…

Loneliness TokyoSayu: Am I still cute today? Me: Yes my love, of course you are…SAYUUUUUUUUUUU!Minishige!SAAAAAYUUUUUUUU!Whew….. SaYuuuUUUUUUuuU! After earnestly attempting to write an objective review of the music in this video, I have simply given in to the urge to fanboy about Michishige Sayumi. This song is run of the mill Tsunku EDM (read:great). The kind…
Up Up Girls (2) – Kakkate Kinasai
~Bring it on! I won’t lose! ~ Up Up Girls Kakko Nikki are the smoldering younger sisters of Up Up Girls Kakko Kari and Up Up Girls Pro Wrestle. They are content queens for their idolizers. They provide a lot of high quality content tailored for the wota, like dance covers, reaction vids, or streamed…
Morning Musume – Jinsei Blues (人生Blues)
Jinsei Blues (人生Blues) 作詞：つんく 作曲：つんく 編曲：大久保薫 This continues a long tradition of “You can do it” songs from hello project. Its one of my favorite genres of idol song. Some of my other favorite songs in this genre include, Kobushi’s Kore Kara Da and Angerme’s Taiki Bansei. These songs tend to be released when I am going…
