Janakya Mottainai by Boy-ono / JAY! He spoils me, but I love him for it. I've had the MP3 to this for a little bit now, so I've already had the pleasure of rocking out to this trio of deliciously talented guys. I'm not super familiar with the song but I am in love with this dub of it. The guys sound SO GOOD! And the video is super cool; props to Himi for vid mixing.

Tai Tai couldn't be in this single, because of school. So he was covered by Ryan, "who is a member of 'Specials Unit'; an expansion of ★Boy-ono! that covers a variety of H!P songs. I would like to thank him for covering so quickly and adding some harmonies to make this cover more unique!" Ohmygosh, are all the harmonies in this by him? They're spectacular!

And speaking of, 0:24 is Ryan. I recently heard him for the first time in a groupdub (look to the right sidebar, featured Gag100 dub), and I adored him instantly! He has the first line in this, and it's just a short little "Araamu jiriri" but I totally love love it! Gosh, he has such a clear sound and an awesome voice. Holy crap, Ryan and Jay could almost be vocal twins! Jay follows right after him, sounding clear and fantastic with nice energy.

All of the guys are fabulous on the verse, Ryan and Jay & Himi as well! I like that they take turns, rotating through the same order; this is how the song is originally, so the props go to H!P for line division. They seem to do pretty good when it comes to Buono and fairness. One thing I have noticed (and mentioned before) is that Momo often gets a different melody that falls between the verse and chorus. 0:45 is Himi, and he's all darling and chanty. It's really catchy and he sounds great.

Chorus time!! (0:54) These guys sound wonderful together! The S' are a little sharply Ssss-like in the "desho ne?! Sou desho?" ~ the C in "Zekkoochoo" and the J's in the ending lines also have that sharpness to them, I don't exactly know what to call it. It's not awful but it does prickle at your ears, especially if you're listening at the volume I am, lol. Regardless of any minor things, I really like the "Janakya mottainai"s!

1:37 starts the second verse and I adore the effect that's used on their voices! I like Himi's "raibaru ga girari" solo at 1:42ish a lot, and Ryan's following solo is my favorite from him in this verse. The effect is only used for half of the lines; Jay's 1:55 solo is without it and I love the melody of his line, he sounds terrific! Then it's more chorus, following Himi's 1:58 chanty solo. And again after the instrumental break, more chorus.

The energy level is pretty sweet and I'm just lovin' this trio. The verses are my favorite part of this dub, even though the chorus is really good. Overall these guys did a kick-butt job on this song and they're totally worth a listen. Thanks to Jay and Himi for sharing!! I love Ryan, but I hope to see TaiTai back in action soon. And whatever this "Special Unit" thing is, I cannot wait for it!
