Artistes Announced For The 65th NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen
Red Team
Spoiler:
_____________________________ White Team Spoiler:
http://www1.nhk.or.jp/kouhaku/ I'm going to be biased but I think the White team will win this year again I'm very surprised V6 has NEVER been invited to Kohaku before but they really deserve it since 2015 will be their 20th anniversary And LOL for Golden Bomber again oO xD === Song list for 'The 65th NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen' released Quote:
|
why is koda kumi not in the list:yes
|
May J debuts? Omg hope she won't sing LET IT GO. Seriously have had enough of the song.
|
YAY FOR AYAKA! Wonder what she will sing?
|
ooohh! Shiina ringo? great!!!
|
Can't actually believe that Yakushimaru Hiroko hasn't been on Kouhaku before. While she is mainly an actress, but some of her songs were huge hits back the 1980s. I am surprised.
ayaka, Shiina Ringo, Seiko. Not bad. :D |
No ayu, no Koda, no Namie. There's something wrong.
|

Don't see why May J. will not sing Let It Go though lmao |
kinda sad that ayumi isnt on the list!
At least its not a surprise! |
Quote:
I still wonder why it took so long for V6 to get invited but better late than never |
Only hopes for the read team for me are Ayaka, AKB48 and its sister groups, miwa and Perfume...
I'm also surprised that aiko and Kobukuro are left out from the field. Uhh...WHAT!? Even more surprising is how angry aiko was when she was left out...! Quote:
http://www.oricon.co.jp/news/2045055/full/ http://mdpr.jp/music/detail/1449319 (Can anybody translate it into somewhat clear? Looks like aiko was pretty upset, enough to spark some Japanese entertainment newswires... Looks like not only Ayu, but also Kobukuro aren't going to appear in this year's Kouhaku...) |
^Thanks for the info, I didn't know it !!! aiko is out too, mmm, I wonder what happened
|
I didn't realize the koda wasn't going either lol
there is officially no reason to watch this. |
Morning Musume ignored again :(. And they're doing so great lately too, it's a shame they're not invited anymore.
|
Nogizaka shits on AKB48 on a daily basis in terms of sheer quality. It's a shame the right group isn't going to the event...

Guess I have to agree as well. Especially after seeing both guest on FNS recently.
Anyway, back to Kouhaku discussion. It has been revealed that Arashi and Matsuda Seiko are going to close the show. The red team gets the honour of being the last performer for the first since 2004. |
Whoa...Arashi going to close out the show for the white team!? :O
|
Much as I support ARASHI , I really wish they will stop being the Kouhaku hosts
The Johnny's countdown is not the same without them imo + this year's Johnny's lineup that will take part in the countdown is not that great ugh |
Quote:
I want Arashi to get off the Kouhaku host status and bring back the glory days of Johnny's countdown!!! |
The Kohaku really started to decline when, first, they stopped inviting Sachiko Kobayashi and then, second, Korean artists became persona non grata. Yeah, where are Nogizaka46, Yuzu, Bump of Chicken, Southern All Stars? I wish they would look at hit albums instead of just hit singles of the year.
|
Nogizaka46 had an excellent year, they even sold more than AKB's sister groups.

Arashi & 'Yokai Watch' to collaborate for 'Kohaku Uta Gassen'

Wow, gonna be quite a 80's boom on Kouhaku tonight. With Seiko, Yakushimaru Hiroko and now Nakamori Akina added to the list.

The show starts in about an hour from now. Since I don't have access to TV Japan or a proper stream, going to tune in and listen on NHK Radio 1 instead. Let's hope all goes smooth for red team host Yoshitaka Yuriko too. I understood she had some moments during the rehearsals. :P |

Well, usually no. But I have a Japanese IP (located in Osaka) right now. Using VPN service.
E-girls, miwa. :heart |

White team's 3rd consecutive win at this year's Kohaku
Quote:
ARASHI please don't host Kohaku again in 2015 ~_~ |
Doggone it. I think AKB48 messed up, Arashi capitalized it. White team deserved to win that, I felt AKB48 was "boring" and Arashi just kicked some butt. Much like how the Packers won NFC North back in 2013 over the Bears...
I have to wonder if adding Nogizaka46 will help the red team to victory again, because we've been seeing too much white team "dynasty" - can we just get rid of Arashi from being host??? They celebrated their 15th anniversary this year, but there needs to be some way to counter that! Karen, I agree with you... Quote:
I'm getting "ARASICK" of Arashi hosting. You messed up Johnny's Countdown, well to a point that even Fuji TV doesn't want to pick it up this year... |
i feel that AKB48 performance is so boring as well...and other massive group...we can saw huge different between them and E-girls...
Arashi is ok..but for me Yoshitaka Yuriko did worst... |
I think that Arashi, surprise appearance from Southern All Stars (31 years since last time!!!!), Fukuyama Masaharu and more swayed the favor to the white team as usual.
Yoshitaka Yuriko did worst? Really? (hope you are not comparing her to Arashi here, not exactly a fair comparison) I thought she did okay from what I heard on radio, but yeah, haven't watched the actual footage yet. At least I preferred her over Ayase Haruka last year. Also, this was her first time hosting any show. And that being Kouhaku to boot. Well, too bad that red team lost. Especially for the girls ↓↓↓ http://i.imgur.com/0y7Kz8il.jpg From KitaRie's (AKB48) twitter just before the verdict. Aw. |
not even surprised at the results, it's not even fun anymore... :x

As for the show I really enjoyed Akina. She sang really well and I was really happy to see her in a good physical condition. I can't lie and say Seiko's performance was a bit disappointing as I really would've preferred a nice medley of her 80s hits as Missing You has gotten old but she still did a great job. |
Yeah, it was great to see Akina still around and well.
As for Seiko. I too, would have preferred another song choice. Missing You had been performed twice on Kouhaku already. But, I am glad she somewhat nailed it in the end. Felt she was nervous all evening. Yakushimaru Hiroko was tense too and couldn't deliver her best perhaps. I was very much looking forward to Woman "W no Higeki" yori. One beautiful song composed by Yuming. Gotta love her angelic type of voice even now 30 years later. Has always been unique! |
