I need the studio version of TOKYO Sanpo NOW. I love it.

[Yoake]

Watashi is boring. Sakura hara hara is promising. It seems to be better than any songs of her last album.

[Chibi-Chan]

Just listened to 桜ハラハラ and I find it boring as hell. =( I waited so long for something new. ;_;

[oaristos]

I absolutely loved Watashi, but I really think I'm going to be listening to Sakura Hara Hara more often. That song is so nice to the ears, I don't know how to explain it

She looks so adorable in that performance of Tokyo Sanpo! I'm not going to judge that song or HEY! BEAR without listening to the studio versions, but I quite enjoy them so far. Hope they're included in her future album!

[thinkingoutloud89]

she looks older in that hara hara song because of the projection, she has a constant pink or blue picture ein her face, which did not work well for her.

[Earth_maiden]

Is the new single uploaded anywhere?

More More debuted at #34 with 2,674 in 2014 with a Music Station performance. Pretty good debut for Watashi.

Not at all. She doesn't sell very well nowadays, so I wasn't expecting amazing numbers. However, I feel like she doesn't really care about that anymore and that's why her latest released have been so good--I think she's simply focusing on the music.

To be honest, I don't really like 女子シェルター but the other two tracks are amazing. I can't stop listening to Sakura Hara Hara.

[Corvina]

I agree, 女子シェルター is quite annoying.
But I also think 桜ハラハラ isn't as good as the preview made it seem.
私 is still great though.

When I click any of the download links for Watashi, I keep getting "File Belongs to Suspended Account."

Edit: nvm, found it elsewhere.

[Yoake]

^Sorry I didn't check them >.< I hadn't thought they wouldn't work after a week.


Sakura hara hara is her best song since Kurage, Nagareboshi. I appreciate Watashi more than the first listening. Joshi shelter is funny but it's not the kind of song I'll listen to all the time. She dug it out from eighties.

[freedreamer]

I miss her amazing ballads. (NekoNiFuusen, KurageNagareboshi, Planeterium, Pocket, Ai, Kingyo Hanabi, Kumuriuta). Her next album can be full of ballads like these and I wil take it LOL

It's okay, was just a hard single to find for some reason.

For me Kurage Nagareboshi is pretty much her Magnum Opus, followed closely by Cherish. I haven't listened to her last two albums much though, the last one I really got into was LOVE LETTER.
