<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9gDX4mfWtY">Best C-ute song ever </a>
In my opinion, their indies were the best.

I miss Megumi Murakami, but I was glad when the two weakest performers left to give us the current 5-member configuration, one of the best H!P groups ever.

I was happy when Kanna left, but I would argue that Erika was far superior to Mai and Saki. Seeing as she can actually hold a tune. And this is just a personal opinion but her looks were a lot better than either of the other two mentioned. Also I never much cared for Megumi, her serial killer eyes scare me. 
I'd prefer current C-ute, minus Saki and plus Erika.

I shouldn't have called Kanna and Erika the "weakest performers." That's unfair to them. What I meant was that they were the performers who were the least interesting to me of the seven C-ute members. I still liked both of them and when I watch some of the older concerts with them, I realize that I miss them too. For the record, Nacky and MaiMai are my faves of the five. (Megumi would be my favorite if she was still there.)
 
Oh, and ditto on "Midnight Temptation." I consider it C-ute's best song. I practiced it for karaoke recently and was very upset to learn it wasn't in the catalog.

I like Bishoujo Shinri...maybe the most. Massara Blue Jeans as well. I love Maimi's solo line at the end of those songs. Airi performed Bishoujo Shinri solo pretty well, but Maimi's line simply belongs to Maimi. Airi can't sing it as well. Oh well I am Maimi-biased, so there is a chance I like those two songs because of Maimi..
 
I also like Momoiro Sparkling, Forever Love (oh, Maimi's deep voice), Namida no Iro, Kiss me Aishiteru and Dance de Bakoon. Recent songs? Not as good. The qualify of Cute's songs are declining, but nevertheless very good.
 
Oh yeah, Midnight Temptation as well... Just that I listened to the song too many times (at the time I got addicted to it) that I am kinda sick of it by now. Still, I it is a great song, and their live performation of it was just...wow.

Kiss me Aishiteiru, Aitai Aitai Aitai naaaaaaaaaa, and Dance with Bacon are my favorite C-ute songs.  I used to love Sakura Chirari but then I accidentally put it on a playlist 6 times and it took me a few days to figure it out and so I got sick of it.
 
 
MaiMai is my original favorite H!P kid, and even though she's been kicked to second place I will love her always and foreverrrrr!! <333333
 
I actually miss Megumi AND Kanna AND Erika though...even though I kind of feel like Erika is better off without C-ute, but she was always one of the better singers in H!P kids.

Kanashiki Heaven is so amazing on so many levels, also love Midnight, Aitai3x, Edo no Temari.
 
But Ookina Ai is the most sentimental, because it was the first real H!P MV I had ever seen.
 
Discovery of H!P: (I love you, YouTube)
 
random anime -> lilpri -> LilPri's S/m MV -> Watching the whole Winter 2010 concert for MM over and over -> Ookina Ai.  
 
 
The rest is history.  (in other words, I can't remember.)

I guess this has become the "which C-ute songs do you like ?" thread. hah
 
I like (in chronological order) Ōki na ai de motenashite, Sakura shirari, Tokaikko junjō and Lalala shiawase no uta.
 
Barely know any other songs and can't remember and didn't care about any of the singles in the past five years.

Ooki na Ai is also a pretty great song. As well as Tsuugaku Vector and the 3rd album.
