THIS TIME I WILL MENTION WHAT I LOVE ABOUT BERRYZ KOUBOU! (^____^)
Well, honestly, Berryz Koubou is my least favorite in Hello!Project, but it doesn't mean that I don't love them at all. There are some points about them that I really love, mostly is about their songs. I only knew some of their songs, and those are the following:
MY TOP 5 SONGS IN BK!
(a.k.a. TOP 5 MUSIC VIDEOS OF BK)
5. Ai no Dangan(a.k.a. TOP 5 MUSIC VIDEOS OF BK)
Well, this song sounds pretty powerful for me. Also their MV. Actually, I get attached to a song if the MV is well-made and also, if it complements to the video. LoLz. But of course, the song, the outfit and the video perfectly matched. Especially the time when they rode a big bike. It was a nice touch to their outfit.
I don't know, but I really love the songs that gives a strong feeling to the listeners. This is one of their childhood songs, and for me, it sounds mature for their age at that time, which is kind of special.
3. Heroine ni Narou Ka!?
This is one of their best songs. So on their previous songs and MVs, it might be the first one I really liked throughout the years (after Dakishimete Dakishimete was released). I kept on watching and listening and watching and listening to their song and MV. It totally made me feel crazy about it xD
2. Dakishimete Dakishimete
Another song that gave me a powerful feeling. One of their best songs at all times. I really got excited when this song was included in the list for the tribute we facilitated. I remember I started getting interested on Berryz Koubou since they released this single. Well, we all might noticed that there are cheap music videos made for some songs, not only in BK, but to the whole H!P. Which will be a major turn off to like a song. So I'm really glad that BK had this cool song with matched cool outfits and video.
1. Special Generation
Well, well. Who would never love this song? It's a really special song of Berryz Koubou. The energy mesmerizes throughout the whole song. As I watched their MV, it really have the fun feeling, and the Berryz Koubou feeling. The song might be simple, but the song really stood out. One of their childhood songs, and it still shines until now.
THE TRIBUTE FOR BERRYZ KOUBOU
It really became a tradition here in Chuu!Sugoi!Idol and in the Hello!Project fan page to have a tribute for someone graduating. So since Berryz Koubou will be going on indefinite hiatus soon.Few months ago, we planned what we are going to do for the Berryz tribute. We opened the table for suggestions and some suggested to have a dance cover of their famous songs. And so, we opened a so-called audition for the ones who will do the dance cover. Fortunately, we finished it on time, and uploaded it online before the final day.
This video shows how fans adore and loved Berryz Koubou with all their heart. They participated to show in the world how amazing BK is. Though, we never wanted anyone to leave, or go on hiatus, but since this is reality, showing our love for the group in a short video would be very meaningful for Berryz Koubou. Well, I hope they will be able to see this video, so everyone! Don't forget to share this video until it reaches Berryz Koubou nee?
To Berryz Koubou,
Throughout the years, you've been inspiring many people, and even if you're going on hiatus, we will never forget how special you are. Thank you for everything and gambatte on reaching your goals in life! We will always be here to support you!
