Keibetsu Shiteita Aijou & The New H!P Soloist

March 4, 2008 at 4:14 am (Aijou, Erina, Keibetsu, Mano, Shiteita, akb48, lyrics)

A song by “AKB48″ known as “Scorned Love” in English

It’s an abosloutely AMAZING song about a girl’s suicide after constant bullying. And I must say I’m proud of myself for actually recognizing some Japanese ‘dakishimiete hoshikatta’ I wanted someone to hold me . The openingof the PV is really beautiful…it opens with these words (translated from the original Japanese):

“You are not a bird.

I wish that you would walk firmly on the ground.

Despite these painful matters, there is still a future.

Time will always be an eraser of memories.”

and it closes with

“Whatever of paiful matter happens, it can be forgotten with the passing of time,

Do not keep your worries to one person alone, tell people,

You are strong, and perhaps you are not so weak”

It’s a pretty interesting PV, especially since the rise in bullying and Suicides have increased and most Pop figures don’t really address issues like this (ESPECIALLY not Suicide…and RARELY bullying…) I dunno… random bit… (screen caps below)

So, there’s a NEW H!P Soloist

Ma-no E-ri-na

Mano Erina, I think she’s actually being removed from Gatas in order to do this, and that would actually make sense since being a solo artist tends to eat up all the time you have.

Usually when there’s something this big that happens in H!P you tend to hear alot of ‘UGH! Not her!’ and ‘She can’t sing’ and alot of stuff like that. Of course, for her, apparently it’s different. Supposedly she can sing and dance quite well and she’s adorable. She reminds me a bit of a cute frog in the picture (maybe it’s just the smile though… haha) Alot of people seem to be supporting this! there’s also a new group that’s being form in H!P with Yuu, Sayaka, and Koharu Kusumi (too lazy to look up the other girls’ last names) there’s lots of controversy in it… mostly bcause of the whole ‘Kusumi’ thing… she’s.. well… not attractive (if we’re being kind) … horrible singer (she’s improved, but definitely not by enough to be good)…. and… just bad in general… the ‘lucky star’ or whatever Tsunku called her… not working out… she’s marketable… I guess… I dunno, I still don’t like her…  Mitsui Aika works well with Koharu ’cause Mitsui’s voice makes Koharu’s seem less scratchy! haha :D
