^Oh really? Do share. :shihi

I'M SO HAPPY I COULD CRY! Finally Mariko's center! I wanted Takamina, but honestly I think this is just as good. She really deserved it. I really hope the song ends up being amazing. I don't expect it to be since it's the janken single, but it'd be amazing if it ends up being sexy to fit Mariko. I think she did it really well in Beginner and Kurumi to Dialogue.

So happy with the results. Every girl I hate got eliminated (Yui, Sashi, Ishida, the lemon person).

I almost had a heart attack while following it live though....after Ucchi lost to Sashihara. Was freaking out. Overall, love the center, love how the senbatsu is looking. Couldve had more TAKAMINA or Myao but oh well.

Ahhh I just love this event a lot. It was so much fun!! And OMG some of the outfits this year are so WTF awesome!!!!!!!!!!
After getting over the disappointment of my oshis losing I'm really quite excited for this single!

I'm glad that Sayaka is in Senbatsu and good for Mariko being center.

I'm still undecided on what type I want for this single. What I heard of Kaze wa Fuiteiru was okay.

Ugly outfits, boring PV, and the song is just ok.
I don't see this single selling more than 1 million, but maybe i'm wrong, lol

^You're wrong lol
It will still sell a million. Their peak is not quite over yet.
plus your opinion ≠ everyone's.
I feel like a broken record when I talk about AKB. :rolleyes

I think the song's amazing. It will definitely sell over a million. Their peak DEFINITELY isn't over yet, thankfully. Too bad the video blows though...

The real test I think will be come February since the Sakura singles of the past two years sold a massive amount compared to the October singles of the previous year and seem to determine how the rest of the year's sales will look like.

The song is meant to bring relief to Japan much like Momosu's Love Machine (their highest selling single), it'll definitely break a million for no other reason than that.

The video's down? T_T

Nevermind, here's one on Dailymotion for anyone else that missed it: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xld...-yyyyyyy_music

The covers are out!:

DEFINITELY buying version A, especially since Vamos sounds like it's going to be a better song than Gondola Lift and the cover is better (even though my oshi is on B's).

wow, maybe i don't like the pv, but the covers are so beautiful, the concept of the covers and the girls, omg :heart :heart

Very nice covers :yes
