A BEST 2 TV Performance log
 

Well, since she seems to be doing different songs at each show, we might as well document them in one place. [hopefully this is as efficient as the Morning Musume TV appearances thread at JPM..]


At HEYx3, it was said that she performed Dearest during the recording.

And at SMAPxSMAP, it was rumored that she was to perform four songs:
part of Me, Dearest, independent, and NEVER EVER.

Finally, at MUSIC STATION, it has been posted that she will be performing evolution. They are really going for variety this time around.

Ah thank you for this TH.

It makes me wonder if she's even going to be promoting part of Me..

Also, this makes me think that they're trying to perhaps, drive up sales of previously released singles with such promotion..

Well this is a best album, and I don't particularly think it would be good to be promoting a new song... I think it's safe to just promote the songs that we all love (Eg. evolution, Dearest, etc)

Yes, but usually the newer song takes priority over the others..

Doesn't seem like that's happening this time.

Wasn't "A Song for XX" used last time? >_>

RAINBOW was performed a few times [at Music Fair, and so on..], more times than A Song for XX was performed to promote A BALLADS..

Oh... Well I wouldn't know... But I think it's much safer this way... They seem to be going to so much trouble with all this promotion.

(Maybe you should make this thread about the whole A BEST 2 Promotion)

Well, I already kind of have a thread for that.

-points at the "promotional items" thread-

But this is more for the TV performance screencaps and such, so people don't post like 10 different threads in a single day [since most of her shows are on the same day..]

[RAINBOW was performed 4 times to promote A BALLADS..]

Whoa, the fact that she's performing older songs is quite interesting, I must say.

Yey, evolution <333

Thanks for posting :)

evolution =333

So happy, thanks ^o^
Please CAROLS next time xD

Possibly. If that was the case though you'd think she'd do the songs that are rarely performed on tours and such (evolution, NEVER EVER and Independent have probably been performed enough times for the old singles to have been bought by who wants them).

If she did just perform part of Me, then that wouldn't really help the sales of WHITE.
The variation is quite good. Because the albums not re-recorded it would be good if she performed the likes of Real Me and such.

Yes, but people who see her on tour would probably already HAVE the older singles, whereas if she performs on TV, the songs she performs might be promoted just a bit more..

Reminds me of Kouhaku and this one Enka guy whose total sales went from 30k, to around 300k in a few weeks after Kouhaku...

And there's a mini campaign out there to get the remaining 45k left for evolution to become a million seller..

I wonder if that will work.

oOoo~~ can't wait to see these preformances! i wonder how evolution will sound like because her evolution TV performances werent too good xD

thanks for the info, Dearest = :luv2
too bad M isn't on A BEST2, 'cause I would've loved to hear her sing that

M was included in A BEST
that's why this track was not included

evolution o.o wow

i'm so looking forward to all those performances!hopefully different song for each performance~ayu go go!
