Berryz Kobo A-Side Singles Top 10
This is a Top 10 list of my favorite A-Side singles for Berryz Kobo. [I start with Berryz because they recently went on their indefinite hiatus and before this they were the oldest H!P group]. I also include an explanation why it is that particular number on my list.

But first, some honorable mentions:

15. Maji Bomber!!

14. Motto Zutto Issho ni Itakatta

13.Tomodachi wa Tomodachi Nanda!

12. Romance wo Katatte

11. Towa no Uta


10. Jiriri Kiteru

It's the only single on my Top 10 from when the group was still fairly young. I love the piano parts, and the overall beat is pretty nice. Captain is so small!! Also, the girls look so cute. The dresses are too small for young girls, imo, but oh well. With the cheesy running scenes, and the beautiful closeups, this makes my #10 pick.

9. 1oku 3zenman Sou Diet Oukoku

I can't determine what type of genre this single is, but I love it! The message is so powerful and I hope that it spoke to some people. Seriously, the message needs to get out! Again I comment about Captain, who looked so cute in pigtails. The repeated lines helped me remember them - as they are rather tongue twister-like. But when some thought this song was weird, I loved it.

8. MADAYADE

The first single I heard from Berryz. It's a catchy song. I like the various colors of the outfit. Even after all this time since I first heard it (7 years - I can't believe it!!) I can still do the dance, well, most of it, during the chorus. To me, this song is one of many where the girls sound amazing when they all sing together.

7. Shining Power

I thought this was such an amazing single - perfect for an anime. It was colorful, fun, the instrumental was amazing and catchy, everyone's hair looked so cool, and it's a Yurina center! How awesome is that! :w00t: I sometimes catch myself singing the first verse and chorus.

6. Otakebi Boy WAO!

Another anime single. I've not seen the anime, but that doesn't matter. I can remember when this double A side came out with Tomodachi wa Tomodachi Nanda I watched both MV's constantly, and I kept watching Otakebi's making of. I tried my hardest to do the dance. I wasn't too good hahaha. But I stuck to this song so much when it was released. The rolling r's were cool. Also, it's one of the first Berryz songs I purchased on iTunes. :)

5. Asian Celebration

This single was used for PreCure!! Haha it's easy to dance to (even though I wish I knew the dance) and I love the pairings for the duet lines (?) - Momochi/Captain, Miya/Risako, Chi/Maasa. My favorite part is after the chorus is sung a second time. Their voices are amazing. (not to mention the Kansai ben that I detect hahaha). Overall such a fun party-type song!

4. Cha cha SING

How can one not love this song? It's a cover of Bird ThongChai's Row Mah Sing. It introduced me a little to the Thai culture. Now, I know it isn't totally Thai, but still. It made me look up the original version and I enjoyed that as well. Oh, I got the dance down, too :good: Nothing much else to say but it's fun, catchy and I always seem to be doing the dance or humming/singing this song.

3. Watashi no Mirai no Danna-sama

This song is just so cute. It's about how a girl anticipates and hopes to meet her future husband quickly because she is eager to fall in love and all that good stuff. I don't know, there isn't anything too exciting about this single, yet I always find myself singing it (and failing miserably to hit the notes). I have no problem with the outfits, and I do like how the set is, especially with the opening with the TV. The transition is cute.
2. Ai wa Itsumo Kimi no Naka ni

This.song.is.amazing. No really it is! I can remember waiting for a radio rip or something of it, and my jaw dropped when I heard it. The music video is simple, but that's okay. The girls nailed it and look flawless as always. The instrumental is a huge hit with me too. I can never seem to get the line "Ai wa ai no ue ni ai wo tsukuttari wa shinai sa" - I just can never properly sing it x_x XD But it's a song that's meant to be this high on my list.
1. WANT!

#1 to me is WANT! It's my go-to song for Berryz. I love everything about it. The music video set is interesting and colorful. I love the big background circle thing and the lighting makes it mysterious. Plus, the spinning set (is it really spinning or is it 360 degree cameras that Kpop MV's are famous for? hahaha) is creative to me. The costumes are pretty (and I can't believe they were supposedly going to be more revealing. Oh my...) and I like that shade of purple. Risako stands out completely in this single due to her hair. But I love how every member is shown in the MV. Again, I love everything about it.


I will be doing other H!P groups too. Please look forward to them! :ongaku:
