Here's the file, btw~

Edit~ I've also ripped mp3s of the "soshite boku wa tohou ni kureru" performance and the preview of "tabibito" from her site.

Thanks thanks thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks! The CM is pretty but what's the point? There's about ten seconds of the actual song... lol. I have to say, though, that she has really pretty lips.

Also, mu-mo.net put up an interview with Satomi. My Japanese isn't good enough to translate, though. =/

Double post =x

Anyway, someone yayfully uploaded wi☆th's PV to YouTube a couple days ago. Satomi sings basically everything. Chinatsu Wakatsuki, who is easily the most famous of the four, only gets a couple of really distorted solo lines and the other two just do the chorus vocals. It's a pretty catchy song, regardless.

I ordered their single and a compilation album that has two of their others song on it. I should get them when I get Satomi's solo single <3

Also, I found this old wi☆th wallpaper I had saved a couple years ago from their old avex site (it's gone now =x):

[Alessia_Tateno]

When wi☆t debuted?

[drewbilation]

^As a singing unit, in 2002, but they were race queens/gravure idols before that.

Also, Satomi will be performing on "ongaku senshi MUSIC FIGHTER" on May 25th. She's also got some radio and live appearances lined up for the next couple of weeks.

[Halla]

Aren't the wi☆th songs on some car/racing-themed Eurobeat album? cos I think there are other groups like wi☆th , Vivace for example. I think a lot of race queens are managed by Avex so i guess it's a easy step to cover an eurobeat song so they have something to perform at the car shows & races lol

[drewbilation]

^ Yeah, they're on those SUPER EUROBEAT compliations a lot of times.

Every year there seems to be a new one of the race queen Eurobeat groups. 4☆TUNE is the most recent, I think.

[drewbilation]

Satomi's PV's up on Jpopsuki now. I would uploaded it then download it to YSI or whatever, but I my ratio or whatever is too low.

[Beauty4123]

i would download the PV out of curiousity and try her out, but i'm not at my computer. hopefully it'll get up on youtube soon.

[drewbilation]

Yay, managed to get the video <3 I'll uploaded it and a PV rip of the song in a few minutes.

thanks. gonna watch it now.

[AyuGAME]

the song is really nice...

[Beauty4123]

the PV is nice, and the song isn't bad, but is the PV shortened, or is the song really only 3 minutes long? it seems shortened to me, like the way avex makes misono's PVs short on tv, but the full version is on the DVD when you buy the single.

[Halla]

I like the song, it's a very cool mix of traditional & modern elements. and Satomi has a great voice.

The PV is pretty but it's a bit plain, somehow from the preview clip I thought there would be more of different scenes.

I'm looking forward the single & I'm curious to see how well the single will do on Oricon. whats it up against?

the only single i know that also comes out on june 6th is hitomi shimatani's "neva eva".

[~Amy~]

I feel played!
That PV was short like Van-chan's PV's!
>.> And that video is different from the one in the preview.

I think the scenes we've seen in the CM/previews and stuff will be one of the first press bonus tracks on the DVD.

The only real competition releasing on 6/6 are Hitomi Shimatani and BONNIE PINK, but there are a couple of releases from 5/30 that may have good second weeks, like aiko, Ai Kawashima, Leah Dizon, Chihiro Onitsuka, Aya Ueto, Kou Shibasaki, L'Arc~en~Ciel and melody.
