It’s been a while since I last posted an update on our chicas in Hello! Project. All of the groups have been very active and there are plenty of upcoming releases. Ready? Let’s go!
2011: What Happened and What Didn’t
So, you remember when I did my Hopes, Predictions, and Fears list I posted in the beginning of last year? Well, it’s time to go back to it and see what did and didn’t happen! Let’s start, shall we?
Top 10 Favorite K-pop Songs of 2011
K-pop has been on the rise lately. I try my best to be a faithful fan, although you won’t see me around any forums or allkpop.com. I can’t really indulge into the fan universe of K-pop–the hardcore fanbase isn’t really, well…nice. So, because of this, most of the time I’m fairly late on certain releases–even for the artists I really love. Like I promised, today I will be going through my top 10 favorite K-pop songs of 2011!
Top 10 Favorite J-pop Songs of 2011
I do have to say, 2011 wasn’t really the year for J-pop music(but then again, I listen to mainly H!P
). I can’t say that I was really blown away by several J-pop releases. I almost had to revert to choosing songs that were just half decent! However, there were a few singles/albums that did keep me hooked and listening. To celebrate the end of the year, I’ve decided to create this little wrap-up for the year 2011(and yes, I do plan to do this every year). So, without further ado, here is my top 10 favorite J-pop songs of 2011!
IT’S ALIVE!
I guess my whining paid off quite nicely ;D The past week has been filled with announcements, videos, and lovely nonsense. Let’s see what’s to come~
[PBSpam! Part IX] Now, tell me. WHY ARE YOU SO GORGEOUS?
Long time, no pics~ Here is another long overdue installment to the series, PBSpam! This is the first non-H!P photobook I’ve reviewed. If you read my AKB48 post, you’ll know who my favorite AKB-er is. And to commemorate her first time as a center in an AKB single on December 7th, here she is!
Where did H!P go?
It’s not just me, right? …What? Hey, don’t look at me like that! <_< I know I’ve been gone for a little while(over a month, to be exact). But, seriously, doesn’t it feel like nothing has been going on in Hello! Project? I know that there’s been Mobekimasu, BerryzxC-ute, and UFA nonsense, but it’s nothing I call important!! Where’s Berryz?? Where’s C-ute?? Where’s MoMusu?? Sumaireji is basically dead. Mano has been MIA. Yeah, yeah, yeah, there’s concerts and tours, but still! There’s been a few big announcements lately–one of which is making me crazy with happiness.
S/mileage failure, MM’s new stuff, and Buono! basics
Well, not many new releases have been announced lately, but there are some updates that need to be addressed. So, here we go~!
Top! Series – Best Buono! B-sides [Part XI]
Welcome to a very, very long, overdue post of Top! Series! Today, I bring you week 11 and the Buono! b-sides I think are the very best. Almost every Buono! song is amazing in its own way. So, instead of choosing 10 songs overall, I’ve made it easier on myself to choose just from their b-sides. You may not have the same opinion, but, these are still the best ;]
So, about those newer new members…
Hello, my dear readers~ I know my posts have been becoming much more spaced out than before. School has been eating up a lot of my time. My weekdays consist of nothing but homework and chores; and I rarely ever use my computer on those days. On my days off, all I want to do is sleep. My body is still adjusting to waking up at 5am. Ugh, well, anyway, in this post I will be talking about the one important thing that happened in H!P recently that I have not talked about yet before. You’ve all probably heard.
