No, I meant that even though she's not part of the senbatsu this time I don't mind, because the line-up is so great

[Krusha]

I think there's some misunderstanding here. The lineup above mentioned, is not for the main single, it is for a new unit (which will have their own song on the single) called DendenmuChu!, of which Miion, Sayaya, Naanya, Yuirii, Nakochan, Mikurin, and Megutan are part of.

 

I also wrote "not in this single", which was a brainfart, as I meant to write "not in this unit" (I've corrected this mistake now).

 

I am quite sure Sayanee will be in senbatsu however.

[the rose garden]

My mistake as well, because I didn't read pink-ku's comment. I just skimmed through the thread for news and saw Miion and Naanya's names and got carried away with excitement   Still exciting news, though!

 

However, I would be very happy if the senbatsu for this milestone single was all AKB...

[minaeshi]

Yamamoto Sayaka = Sayanee, NMB48 - not in this single unit

Kawamoto Saya = Sayaya, AKB48 - is in this single's unit

 

Also, Handshake dates are out (August 7th, 8th, 9th)

Hrm...I should still be in Japan ><

 

Is this with just AKB48 members or AKB48 group?

[minaeshi]

^Seems to be AKB48G, which is most likely considering it's the summer single~

[TRiNuVie]

And a rip from today's concert: https://soundcloud.c...er48/akb48-40th

 

It sounds truly amazing and I'm so happy for Paruru!

[minaeshi]

Not impressed with how little NMB members are there. Really happy about Paruru center and TANOTOMU IN SENBATSU F**K YES! 

I guess this will be Ikoma and Kawaei's last single? 

I'm guessing it will also be Kitarie's last single although she's not in the senbatsu.. I think she should have gotten one last hurrah in AKB.. 

 

Just came back from college so I'll ad this to the first post now~

[Krusha]

Tanochan, Sayaya, Juri, Renacchi, Miion, Naachan = Good times!

I know it's the annual "single which has many members in it", but I am still glad to see Tanochan back into senbatsu, as well as I am glad to see Sayaya and Miion present. Interesting that Ricchan will graduate, is present on this single, and Annin is not present. Wonder if that will continue for Annin in the future. And I also wonder what she will do.

[Ares13]

hmm .. the song .. sound nice .. but I would hope for a more upbeat song that the fans can mix to ..

[Krusha]

AKB48の40thシングルの選抜、辞退させていただきました。応援してくださっているみなさんごめんなさい。きっとびっくりさせちゃいましたよね。
でもたくさん悩んで出した結果です。いつもたくさん心配かけてごめんなさい。

From Annin.

Basically she wasn't left out of the single, she declined senbatsu position.

[SayumiForever]

The song sounds weird..maybe it's jsut the live rip, but it's alright.

For the mu chu's um yes that and anther thing called kabutomu chu! They are increasing, and I wonder why lol are these a one-shot units

[Krusha]

Listening to the song preview, I must say I am pleased. I have no idea how the concert arena has affected the sound of it, but I am looking forward to the release. It sounds easy and catchy, "light" and flowing, sort of. Green Flash bored me. This did not. Hope for a good PV too!

[ShiningLight445]

Wow. The song is amazing! I've been listening to it on repeat.

 

But I can't picture this being a song where girls dance in bikini's So maybe those pretty, white outfits they wore at the concert performance will be the outfits.

Really, this song is so different than a typical pre-ssk single. It isn't very "genki". But it's totally likable and easy on the ears.

 

I hope B-sides are good. This might end up being the first time I actually vote

 

Spoiler

My personal opinion: I loved Sayonara Crawl for it's energy, I didn't really like Labrador Retriever. But I do really like this song so far

[Krusha]

You know, come to think of it... All of the singles carrying voting tickets for the senbatsu election have been good, at least to my ears. If I go back to Manatsu no Sounds good!, I initially had an "eh" reaction to it. But with each listen it grew on me. Then Sayonara Crawl, and I thought it was weaker than Manatsu no Sounds good!, but again with each listen it grew on me. I can't recall what my first reaction to Labrador Retriever was, but with this single it just blew me away. Such a "simple" song yet the melody and the vocals was so nice, it was really catchy. And now this song.

 

I just wish they had more of this stuff spread out through the year because there has been too many dull songs that doesn't do anything for me.

 

... and I've already listened to the song preview quite many times already

No? I can totally imagine them on a beach with a song like this. But I prefer clothes over bikinis anyway. I hope the concert outfits are the outfits for the single.

 

It sounds really good, I hope the studio version won't have less impact.

 

I'm getting Platinum Era Morning Musume vibes from this song, which is always good.

 

Edit: You can briefly hear the studio version in this video.

 

[SayumiForever]

So this is AKB's most difficult dance huh? Still sad about rina's grad announcement tho ;A;
