[2015.04.01] °C-ute - The Middle Management ~Joshi Chuukan Kanrishoku~ /Gamusha LIFE/Tsugi no Kado wo Magare

[TicTacAnyone]

Actually, Jplop had a link to the new song!! Tsugi no Kado wo Magare ("Turn the Next Corner")
 
YESSS... Bringing in new people is so nice. I really like this feeling.

[momoirosaya]

As said in the release thread, it's going to be double A side, but the other song title hasn't been released yet. This single is going to produced by Shounan no Kaze's SHOCK EYE.

[Shoujo Q]

Tsugi no Kado wa Magare (I almost typed Madara. xD) Is another Takui cover. The song, like ANGERME's will be on his album.

[Solarblade]

The other A-side is titled "我武者LIFE" GamushaLIFE announced on Music-ru (this is the SHOCK-EYE song)

[Anderei]

GamushaLIFE lyrics:
 

 
Composed by someone named KOUGA. The Shock Eye guy only did the lyrics.
 
Some TV show is claiming there's two other songs, so presumably this is a triple A-side. But don't put that in the title until it's confirmed.

Title is "Tsugi no Kado wo Magure / GamushaLIFE / The Middle Management ~Josei Chuukan Kanrishoku~

[momoirosaya]

Wow, the Middle Managment sounds like such an exciting song :/

[Anderei]

Sounds like another Bagel ni Ham & Cheese.

Prepare to hear about a young lady getting ready for shit, lol. GamushaLIFE will probably have taiko drums in it. No, it definitely will. Tsugi no is already awesome, so I'm very excited to the other two. This is C-ute's first triple A single, no? Very excited for them... They must have practiced very hard knowing how ham they go on performing altogether but particularly singing and dancing.

[Anderei]

 
I wasn't paying attention at first and almost mistook this as the profile shot from the LAST single.
 
Maimi's comments about the single:
Gamusha - A song about C-ute, many of their feelings in the song. Someone who doesn't know C-ute will be able to learn about them from this song.


Tsugi no kado - A song that helps pushing you to try harder and maybe think out of the box when things get difficult for you.


Management - Fast, cool song. Since we're the oldest group in H!P now, we'll show our femininity and maturity in this song. When matching the dance to the tempo of the song it seems very speedy so we hope to show you cool C-ute in this.
 
If I'm not mistaken, she does mention that Tsunku did do something for one of the songs. I think she said he wrote Management.

Looking up those names they seem to have quite a few credits for both Western and Asian (mainly K-pop) songs. This could be interesting.

Tsunoda composed a couple of hANGRY & ANGRY songs, and Merlot is associated with the Crash Berlin act who did one of h&A remixes too.

I'm pretty sure STRFAN BROADLEY is just a typo for STEFAN BROADLEY. And HYON D is a separate name.

[Shoujo Q]

Concert rip of Middle Management.

[TicTacAnyone]

Not a fan of Middle Management.... As much as I like Mai she's not too suited to be a lead singer. Plus the whole vibe of it almost felt off lol....

[Banana]

Sounds like a Robo-Nakky/Mai lead. Not really my thing, but I like the song. Tsugi no Kado wa Magare is my favorite so far, though.

This song blows my socks off.

[ShiroiChanUK]

^ Completely! This song is amazing!

[momoirosaya]

They performed Tsugi no Kado on H!S.


It's a really good song!

[Meikochi]

I like Tsugi no Kado after a first listening. They're such great performers !

[JPope]

This might be my favorite song by C-ute.

Yes, yes, yess...... Tsugi no Kado covers are fierce and look *great*. Others aren't bad, which I'll take.

[Solarblade]

Surprised no one mentioned that the official title is "The Middle Management ~Josei Chuukan Kanrishoku~ / GamushaLIFE / Tsugi no Kado wo Magare"

[Noa]

Airi looks really skinny lately.

[smtmissin]

Without her bang Airi's face is a bit skinny. Personally I think recently she looks a bit old without bang. I think she should let part of her bang down like she does in the lastest Hello Station episode.  On  the other hand,  Maimi looks younger WITHOUT a bang.

[star]

There isn't a single cover that I don't like this time. Chisato's styling in the ones without the blue outfit are off to me, but overall these are good covers.

[JPope]

Limited A is kind of an overdone look, but I agree that these are pretty strong overall.

[momoirosaya]

Ron Swanson voice: I like them and I think that they are cool.

[Elpis]

Regular A and Limited A are probably my least favorite, overall they look awesome. Whoever created the covers did a good job this time.
