Mai says the songs have lots of talking and aren't what C-ute usually does.

I wonder what the Bagel ni Ham and Cheese MV will look like?
 
But overall I'm looking forward to this release.

If it ends up being sensual shots of them eating a ham and cheese bagel, I called it.

I hate songs with talking in them.  The extended version of MrMoonlight is always painful for me to listen to.

[NekoKaiSai]

I started laughing as soon as I saw "Bagel ni Ham & Cheese" but I'm really interested in the Crazy Dance version.

I agree with both of you. I can't stand talking, it's like "SHADDUP AND SING." If I wanted talking, I'd be listening to an audiobook, y'know?

[AurA]

I don't mind that C-Ute song where they talk about what kind of food they want to eat. Because I understand what they're saying.

[yuzuriha]

I love bagel but why ruin with ham noooo :(

[tsukinobyouin]

I agree on the talking thing. No thanks to that.


Bagel ni Ham & Cheese is already my favorite song.


Namida mo Denai Kanashiku mo nai Nanni mo Shitakunai sounds like a song about depression. (I can't cry, I'm not even sad, I don't want to do anything)


I'm going to pretend Tadori Tsuita Onna Senshi is a Sailor Moon tribute song. 


And #7 and #10 are obviously about sex.

 

[Elpis]

This looks like it'll be an interesting album.

[yuzuriha]

lol honestly I just saw BAGEL NI HAM & CHEESE and stopped reading the rest of the names.

Same.

[Shoujo Q]

Radio Rip of <a href="http://youtu.be/C6NtSqEcnDk">Ham & Cheese Bagel</a>.

[NekoKaiSai]

It's cute, and actually kind of reminds me of older C-ute album songs.

[yuzuriha]

Yeah, it's got a cute old school feel to it.  Or also like...a S/mileage feel.

[YuuakuRisa]

Ham&Cheese bagel gave me chills. I love it. But I feel like it ended too soon...

[Mukuro]

I don't really like this song. I hope the rest of the album isn't like this.

[Elpis]

It's funny. The only thing that is talked about on this album is the ham and cheese bagel song xD

[arcobaleno]

That's cause it has such a cheesy name //shot

[yuzuriha]

[quote="tangerine"]
I don't like the bagel song, it feels like a watered-down and stepped on smashed spit on version of S/mileage's Yuugure Koi no Jikan :l
[/quote]
 

LOL yeah, that's pretty much what I was getting at.

[Elpis]

I'm waiting for a radio rip before I give a strong opinion. So far... I don't really like it...

[NekoKaiSai]

It is a radio rip.

[Elpis]

I found some more information about some of the songs.
 

Spoiler: [+]

*Bagel ni Ham & Cheese is a song in which all members sing, with a Suzuki Airi lead in the end. The lyrics are to represent things girls write in their diaries.

*Abiru Hodo Ai wo Kudasai is a rock song in B-melody led by Okai Chisato. According to Tsunku, it's a difficult song to sing.

*Watashi ga Honki wo Dasu Yoru is a "pop and lock" country song led by Nakajima Saki. It is known to be a great song to use in concerts.

[Anderei]

A pop and lock country song? What the fuck does that mean.

[Anderei]

[quote="tangerine"]
It's pop & rock LMFAO
but yes country + pop + rock. basically...............yeah

It'll probably end up <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQwhjXE27XI">a little like this.</a>

[Anderei]

Small covers:

 
Kind of gives me various Avex girl group vibes.

Those are good covers IMO

Tsunku just mashed more genres together in his head, but really it'll end up sounding like all of MM's recent stuff. 
 
Those covers are fashionable as fuck. I don't even want to see the good quality photos. I'll just enjoy the non disaster version.

No, C-ute gets good covers since they only have 5 members and don't have to do the shitty photoshop mashup that plagues MM covers. 

[YuuakuRisa]

Regular edition is my favorite. The blue curtains are the perfect shade and frame for the group.
