I like Hitohira no hanabira after watching bleach, and hearing the song. I'll have to check out their newest song. ^^

I love Aimi!!!! :D

I really like "Hitohira no Hanabira." :)

It's good that they are singing for anime series. ^^

^I love their main to songs i havent heard the others but their so dam good! theres like so much energy pumping through them!

I like namida no mukou!

Define stuff lol singles are easy to find not much of their stuff to download tbqh :P only 1 single and 2 PV's

^ That' all they have righ now.
Does anybody else hear a ZONE resembalance in Hitohira no Hana Bira? The first time I heard the song, I was trying to figure out what it reminded me of when I clicked on ZONE's Akashi and hit me then.

yea i just youtubed that yea i guess i can hear abit.. but.. feels like aimi's more energetic and passionate in the song or it could just be me lol

Definitely more energy :yes

by any chance anyone find the PV's of their songs i cant find the raws... i wanna use them to make sigs. Also whos your fav in the band Aimi is my Fav! love her hair!!

^ thank you ^^ downloading :D

first day sales for Namida no Mukou:

x->2 - Stereopony - 5,010 (x1.75) = 8,768

looks like gundam 00 helped after all :yes

I have this strange feeling that their next single is going to have an anime tie-in, LOL.

They'll be just like Nami Tamaki, singing songs for anime series, hehe. XD

Oh oh, I sense anime tagging coming.

well, they only have 2 singles, and they were BOTH for animes, so...lol.

Maybe it is too early to label them as anime singers, lol, I dunno. XD

If their next single is for an anime, guess they'll be labeled as such.

Yeah, no doubt about that.

But I wouldn't mind, cus the anime-ties will help their singles sell more. :)

Not dissing anime tie-ins but it gets annoying when people can only the songs in animes and they claim to be huge fans.

I know what you mean.

If they were to have a 3rd anime-tie in for the next single, which one would you choose/prefer?

I'd personally go with Naruto, or Soul Eater. :)

^ Soul Eater.

The second track in romanji on the Namida no Mukou single is Stereo Pony no Tabi wa Tsuzuku or Stereo Pony's Continuing Journey.

Soul Eater's ending soon though, guys. :( No time for new OP or ED.

There's the new Fullmetal Alchemist series coming up, though. They could probably do a kick-ass song for that. :D

There's a new Full Metal Alchemist series? Where have I been?
Doing a theme for FMA would be extremely kick-ass. I want it to happen now.

i actually want UVERworld or ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION to do the FMA opening, lol.

^ I'm sure that there will be many different openings and endings for FMA :D

StereoPony could to the ending? LOL. :D

new single!

yay! day after my birthday! :D
can't wait x3

They really make me think of ZONE! Great band. I'm loving the 2 singles. :heart

OMG, YUI wrote a song for StereoPony? Did I just see what I think I saw? LOL.

^ That's what I was thinking too...

And I've realized that I don't any of the band members names...

LOL @ Engrish

Piffff....

I don't know any of the band members name's. Sorry for the typo.

the vocalist is Aimi, the bass guitar is Nohana, and the drums is Shiho :D

At first, I thought Stereopony consisted of 2 girls, until I read somewhere that it was actually 3. XD

The girl on drums was the member that I didn't notice at first, lol.

^ Poor drummer girl. She's being ignored.

I rewatched their PV's, and now I notice the drummer girl now, lol.

Thanks! :)

Thanks! :)

New Single Tracklisting is out! :)
 

From JPM:

Single + DVD O.o
This is so unusual for sony xD

i've uploaded the full mp3 of "i do it". credit to MIZUK@kmc:

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?zm0mnmylim2

^ Wow, it's out already!

Thanks Lisa, I can't wait to hear what it sounds like.

PV: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96blbWP3SFo

I love the new PV. And AIMI is looking quite nice in the PV.

AIMI is really pretty :yes (i'm jealous :weep)

the PV also reminds me of YUI's LIFE and JAM :D it's still kinda lower budget compared to the last 2 PVs, i think. but i still liked it.

Track 2's romaji: Signal ga Ao ni Kawaru Toki
My translation: When the Signal Turned Blue

I noticed the drummer's star earrings in the PV, and I thought it was pretty cool looking. *__*

I hope they will release their 1st/debut album this year. I don't mind if it will be their next release. :)

I know. The video kinda focused more on the drummer which cracked me up a little since I said something about her being ignored.

^ Lol, that's kinda funny that we got to see more of the drummer girl.

Does anyone have pics of the 3 girls? Group or individual, doesn't matter. I just need to see what the other 2 girls look like, cus all I know is what AIMI looks like, since she's the main person of the group.

small covers from the official site:

WOW they all look so pretty! thanks melody :cool

Thanks Lisa for posting the covers. I wonder why Sony is only giving us a small cover for now, lol. Hopefully, they will have a bigger cover out sooner or later.

And thx Melody for the HQ big pic. Now I know what the other 2 girls look like! :)

Sorry for double post, but I read on their wikipedia page that "I Do It" has a bleach anime tie-in.

That's not true right? :confused

nope, that's not true. their first single was used as an ending for BLEACH, though.

^ Ok, thanks for clearing that up.

Anyways, it's funny how we were talking about which anime tie-in they would have for their next single, and someone mentioned Full Metal Alchemist, and now YUI is singing the opening theme for it, lol.

lol i never thought YUI would sing for that anime, though. so i was really happily surprised :P i'm sure stereopony will be getting another anime tie-in in the near future, though.

^ I was surprised too that YUI sang for that anime, lol.

And yeah, hopefully Stereopony will be getting another anime tie-in with their next upcoming singles.

No, you can look on Rei fu's wiki page and see that someone has posted "I So Wanted (English version)" lyrics for no appearant reason. Just somebody putting info down, not caring if it's true.

OMG, debut album?! :thud

Release Date: June 10th.

CD: http://www.95music.com/productDoc.jsp?id=57597

CD+DVD: http://www.95music.com/productDoc.jsp?id=57596


It looks like an album judging from the price of the CD's! I dunno how accurate this 95 music site is,
but looks like they will be releasing their debut album as their next release! Woot! :) :D

We'll just have to wait for CDJapan or their official site for official confirmation as time progresses. ^^

i found that their debut album will be titled Ajisai ga Waraite Iru (あじさいが咲いている). x3

but better wait for official announcement ; )

EDIT:

http://www.yesasia.com/global/sayona...0-en/info.html
what is that o.O?!

when will the album be released?

2009.06.10

thanks! :) i'm excitedfor june now, lol.

The description says that it's their debut song... :yconfused

promo pic:

Thanks for posting the new promo pic. I love it!

But do they have any pics where they are smiling?!

Their facial expression reminds me of YUI's no-smiling pics. Lol. :/

They all look angry in that pic. :/ Except for the drummer, I can't tell what exactly she is doing.

We really do have to wait. HMV Japan has nothing listed (like future release) and they're not even on CDJapan's database.

^ Yup, we're going to have to wait.

Anyways, I wouldn't be surprised if YUI's name showed up on some of their album tracks when the album tracklisting and stuff comes out. (in the credits).

I just had this feeling that when YUI and them met together in the recording studio, it was for more than just one song. :P

^ AIMI said that she always wanted to meet YUI xD what a coincidence x"DDD

^ Oh really? Wow, that's cool. She certainly did get to meet YUI, as it did happen, haha!

And I didn't know that Stereopony were 4-5 years younger than YUI. o_O I thought they were older than her. Probably YUI looks young, that's why, haha. xD

i wonder if dreams of other band-mates will come true xD bass girl wants to meet Namie Amuro and drummer Maximum ^^' *why nobody wants to meet Ayu?! xDDD*

^ Where was it mentioned that the 3 girls wanted to meet their own respective artist/group, as you mentioned? In an interview or somewhere?

Nohana wants to meet Namie Amuro!! Wow, that sure is interesting! Haha. :D

I wonder if she ever went to any of her concerts before. There's actually quite a lot of Japanese singers/celebrities that attended Namie's current tour. I wouldn't be surprised if Nohana (girl on bass) went to one of the shows! :)

i think it was an interview... i read it somewhere at YUI Lovers forum ^^'

EDIT:

here!

Oh wow, thanks newlook for the info! This is quite interesting to see!

Woah, all 3 members have the same blood type! I had no idea! I feel I have a better sense of who these 3 girls are now, after looking at the info you posted. And also, I feel I know them a lot better! Haha.

SHIHO put Extroversion-like in the Strong point category. I thought she was the opposite though, cus in photos and stuff, she looks camera-shy and stuff. I thought she was introvert, haha. :)

Cool, and Nohana wants to have a live at budoukan someday! That's cool! I hope her wish comes true!

according to this site new album is gonna be named Hyde, Rangia ga Waraite Iru (ハイド、ランジアが咲いている) xDDD kinda strange... xDDD
still, better wait for official announcement ^^'

...hyde? :laugh

i think 2 of the girls are from okinawa right? namie was also born in okinawa :P

Lol @ Hyde. Maybe they asked him to work on their album. :P J/k Haha!

Where exactly is Okinawa? And anything significant about the place? I've heard it a few times before, but I have no idea where it is, or any details about it.

single previews:

Thanks, I'm going to listen to previews right now.

Hope the single will leak in next few days, I'm really looking
forward to listening to it!
