Rather than allowing photos or such, they need to put H!P music on streaming services…
I want to listen to all those old songs and have others listen to them, too…

Most artists already do this.

Allowing people to listen to the music for free wouldn’t profit the company.
As an idol agency, it must be pretty low on their list of priorities.

On the contrary, with such a huge catalog of old songs, Up-Front should definitely do this.

Not for free, but for a fixed amount. It’s not a huge amount of money, but the company would get paid depending on the plays they get, so it definitely wouldn’t be a minus for them. And above all else, it would be a gateway for people who are curious. Not allowing streaming services is like keeping that gateway closed.

I want to especially hear about pairs that spent many years together.

I liked Aya/Kanon the best.
There was something intense about that pairing.

This has been the one for me too in the recent years.

Maimi and Chinami.
If there’s any coupling out there that surpasses this one, I’d like to know about it.

17: 名無し募集中。。。 2019/07/21(日) 23:27:43.95 0
Apart from Yanagawa/Funaki, I don’t know of any other recent pairings that both the people in it have publicly acknowledged.

Depends on your tone.

You’re 48 — you’ve got nothing to lose.
Go for it!

Young Town's Iyasemasen corner is often inappropriate, but hearing Nonaka Miki say NSFW stuff in English made me really uncomfortable this week. This needs to stop. pic.twitter.com/XcfwegUTtj

Tsunku♂: “I appreciate all the respect threads about my lyrics.”

I just found myself thinking how it makes me happy to see all the respect threads about my lyrics. For me personally, I’m happy with how the lyrics of “Zettai Tokeru Mondai” turned out, for example. But I guess that’s not quite the kind of thing that people are looking for in threads like that.

You’re spending too much time on this board.

This is sort of a continuation of a thread I translated a few years ago. You might also want to read that one if you haven’t yet done so — I made sure not to include in this post any of the lyrics already introduced in that one.

Regardless of the actual subject matter, whenever people are talking about the current members, Lifetime Honorary Jokester Fukuda Kanon — having anticipated it all — graduated from the group only after first making sure that she would forever be the punch line of every single discussion that was to come. She’s just too good.

Kawamura Ayano:
“There were fans with cold hands at today’s event. Please use my hands as heaters!”
