Golden Chinatown

Hi guys!

Today I'm just writing a post on my thoughts on Berryz Koubou's new single, Golden Chinatown.  I thought since I'm into JPOP and stuff I'd start doing reviews and such on here. (´・ω・｀)

Basically let me start off by saying that I do actually love the song, but I think the PV is pretty freaking bad. I thought Asian Celebration looked alright to be honest, but this is... just bad. It's like they spent no money and time or thought on these poor girls. (TдT) I mean even for Hello! Project standards it's bad. (Haha, it shouldn't be at a point where we can say this!)

Yeah, the outfits are dumb but I do think they all look gorgeous. Except for Momoko. Who needs to stop those damn pigtails. =__=" (I... really don't like Momoko at all though, so I won't talk about her again. I don't want to be biased.) But yeah it kind of looks like the hot glued some gold stuff on what might have been a nice outfit. (^_^;)　I think Maasa's is the worst... poor girl. 

I like the lyrics, I think the ~chaina puns are pretty cute, and the song is pretty... alluring? I like Berryz' more mature image so I'm into it. (*´ω｀*)　The melody is cool, and the high notes are a nice touch. I'm not the type of person who cares about line distribution at all but it was very nicely spaced out if you're into that which is a nice touch! The song also has a kind of nostalgic feel to it I think. It's really pleasant to listen to! (*´艸｀*)

But this PV is... just bad. (´・ω・`)　The lights are obviously recycled from Brainstorming's PV and I wish they would stop doing this- that is, discovering something and then using it to death. I mean sure the girls look nice under the lights but really there is NOTHING to this PV (and to be honest I felt the same way about Brainstorming). They deserve more than dancing in front of a crappy backdrop with some nice close ups.  Although having said that, I like the dance. I think it's cool and elegant in places, with little bits of cute and sexy. Captain looked fantastic dancing to it of course, haha. 

I don't know why I got so worked up over it because it's expected of Hello! Project and Kimi Sae was worse than this IMO but I think it's because Berryz has had nice PVs recently too (I liked Be Genki, WANT and Cha Cha Sing you know?) and it's like oh and this one we just through together.　m(__)m

I'd still buy the single though...　(；´∀｀)

And that concludes my thoughts! Lol. If you're wondering who my Berryz oshimen is by the way, it's Risako. (*´艸｀*) Now that Reina's gone she's probably my top in H!P (though she's fighting Sayashi and Sayu for that place).
