doesn't sound like it'll be same type of song as their latest Sakura single.
wee I'm excited.

I wonder if they'll put Haruppi (or anyone) from HKT to senbatsu for this like they put Sayanee in Kachuusha?

someone also said the title's "five" part was a hint towards sakura having five petals. or whatever they are. i'm bad at english.

[☆RisaReinaSayu☆]

Can't wait! This group is always the hardest for me to wait on after single announcements. Love the title, curious about senbatsu.

[Mei.ka~]

Like Chou said, doesn't sound like a Sakura song, so I'm hoping that it'll be like 10nen Zakura! Lurve that song so much! And I'm still wondering why I didn't put it on my iPod still. O.o

[HogwartsHokage]

Interesting, interesting. And yeah, with all these rumors about who's in senbatsu and who's not, I wonder what the line-up will look like.

I'm considering buying this as my first AKB48 hard-copy single ever, so I can't wait for previews to come out!

[hitoyou]

Looking at the title it feels like this is going to be a speedy and fun song Akimoto sensei is mixing it up or what?

Rumors and speculations, lovely.

[Ares13]

^ .. ya the title gives me the same feeling of "oki doki" ...lol

anyway .. already ordered both version ... going for the regular because handshake tickets is useless to me since its usually in Tokyo .. and i wouldn't be going Tokyo ...

anyway .. I know no chance that my oshi will make senbatsu .. so its just standard order ... LOL

[Noriega]

I hope they don't over use the phrase "give me five" and everyone gives each other high fives lol :facepalm:
That be lame......

[Ares13]

^ ... Lol

Ya .. Hope they don't do a Japanese version of the children show group Hi-5 ..

That would make me faint ...

[Morning Death]

Give me fuel, give me five, give me that which I desire.

[hitoyou]

I hope they don't over use the phrase "give me five" and everyone gives each other high fives lol :facepalm:
That be lame......

No, that would be awesome ...at the end of the PV Maeda and Oshima does a jumping high five (with a loud YAAY) and the picture stops when their hands slaps together

------

It seems that this will not be a happy norinori song after all (?), after reading Akimoto sensei's latest G+ comment... Apparently Maeda got quite emotional during the recording of the song...

or it is just that good.

Well have to wait and see/listen to find out... waiting...

[HogwartsHokage]

^ Aw, what? I was hoping it would be a genki song so that they can incorporate the high-five or some kind of hand-clapping game into the choreography...

*imagines Acchan and Yuko playing Slide*

Do you think it's going to be another ballad?

[Mei.ka~]

^ I HOPE it's not another ballad. Not that they're bad (In fact, I love them a lot!), but an upbeat song would be an excellent change. Maybe it'll be a slow song, but not sad-sounding, if you know what I mean. A song like Berryz Koubou's Sakura Nyuugakushiki or whatever the title is; it's a slow song, yet doesn't sound entirely sad, and it makes ME emotional!

[Ares13]

Going by history ... this should be another sakura song ... or slow song ...

but I realise that they seldom or almost never do these songs after the single period end ...
They usually keep doing the fast songs ... with the exception of the Janken song ...

So I rather it be a fast one this time or at least a meaningful one that there can use frequently for performance ..

[pastil]

GIVE ME FIVE! is used in the new Apaman shop×AKB48 CM.




Making-of, the song playing on the background.



 
Following in the footsteps of Ue kara Mariko.

[Charlo]

I love love love the song.

Did you see the size of the Crane Acchan made? o.O

I hope these might be the outfits too. Or something like them. I love them

[Picky]

:-D This sounds much better than I was expecting! :-D

[Chioku]

I love this song so much!!!
And the outfits *____*

[HogwartsHokage]

Okay, doesn't sound depressing as I thought it would be. (Might be the opposite for the lyrics though.) On a random note, I love those outfits!

Now I'm wondering again if they'll have the high-five in the choreography...

[LovelyPrincessP]

THANK GOD ALMIGHTY IT ISN'T ANOTHER BALLAD

and it sounds pretty nice too.
