[Manopiano's 2nd Single] Hajimete no Keiken

Post by aisasami »

So, Erina's second single is OUT.



Limited A CD

Limited B CD

Limited C CD

Regular CD



Single V DVD



The PV was out last month and the Piano Ver. PV just came out. Unless you like to watch some cute girl playing the piano over and over for 3-4 mins, you would think this PV is boring.



The single hit the #2 spot on the Oricon daily charts, selling around 13,886 copies. She is doing really awesome for being #2 on her 2nd major single. And, pictures of her past live like a few days ago with some Eggs.



What do you think about it? Is too spring-like? Is it better then last single, Otome no Inori? Even the B-side? (Say yes!) Discuss!

I personally like this song much better then her last single. Haven't heard the b-side yet though.



Her voice seems to be growing on me. D: It must be the song... it has to be.



I'm happy she made it to #2, good for her. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... iggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':thumbsup:' />

I was finally able to get to my new CD a few days ago. I know Erina just can't catch a break on this board, but she and this single deserve better than one reply to the thread. I guess you guys are all talked out from bashing her on the PV thread.



I can't quite say the A-side has surpassed Lucky Aura, but it's pretty damn close. (I doubt anything ever will surpass Lucky Aura in my mind. Time will tell. They are very similar songs anyway.) The combination of the a-side and b-side make this her best single though. I swear Nakimushi Yowamushi is straight out of an 80s Sayuri Kokusho album.



The single ended up number 6 for the week by the way.

Erina is going to kill me with her cuteness. She just has this whole 70s/80s idol vibe to her and she just smiles and you can't help smiling with her. I kind of forget she's singing and just clap along. I think it's her new song, it's so much better then everything else she's done.



I finally heard the b-side and I hate it, but the a-side it great as long as she's on screen performing it I'm just sucked in like one of those people in the Hulu commercials.



She rots your brain, I'm not lying! 8o

this song always sounded familiar, figured it out today. The piano trills are the intro to The Bangles 'Manic Monday' just sped up slightly

I think that song is before most of the board's time, but you're right! That song is about 5 years older than Erina, actually, seven years if you count the original version by Prince!
