UWAH & BAKA

I am drowning in good feelings. Like beswhjbgdgjkrkgn x a kajillion. THANK YOU IZUMI & RISA (of RCR & alo!kira). They recorded an amazingly wonderful little message for me that made me feel like, idk, a nova in space as it's increasing "dramatically in brightness" or something. All shimmery and special. I couldn't stop smiling and feeling just as warm and fuzzy as they said I made them feel.

In reply; Y'all are definitely welcome. I immensely enjoy listening to RCR & alo!kira and was happy to blog about both of them. I'm glad that I got to showcase y'all and share your singing with other people. - Both of the girls said a lot of awful nice things, and Tsunku also passed along a message. Arigatou~ for the wonderful thank you!


And since we're already talking about RCR, share time!!

"love rider" (Renai Rider) by itadakimasu -- let's eat! (the Cupcakes) The A-SIDE to their second release / I can't say this has ever been a favored Buono song of mine. It's not awful, it just doesn't appeal to me. I don't care for the verses much mostly. But enough about the song; this isn't the best dub in the world, but pretty darn snazzy for a group of sick gals. Total props for recording even while not in the best health.

This is kind of a high song, eh? Like those "Suki da yo! Omae, Suki! Suki! Suki" parts; oh my. They turned out pretty good! I really like Risa's mature voice. Izumi had good energy, but being sick made her pitchy. Okie sounds freaking adorable! The majority of the solos turned out well, if it were a non-sick dub I'd say; more umph! - but I get where they're coming from. I've heard them before and they really are good.

My favorite part of this would have to be the chorus. It's my fave part of the song cause I like the melody there, and also I like the way the girls sound on it. It's not super high and you can hear each girl with her different voice, but at the same time they blend well together. I like how there is highish, middle-high and middle-low voices all in the same group. Diversity and unity. The little three-lined parts right before the chorus each time are also pretty.

Look forward to their B-side "it's a waste otherwise!", which should be coming out soon!


On a side note; AkaAnzu is now byebye off of my blog. I won't go into details. Let's just say he isn't a respectable dubber and hasn't been nice to some of my best dubbing buddies. He's gone by many names, including the username lkenokoi. He's also on the watch list of several dubbing/Karaoke groups and forums.

Dude; super mega big no. Way uncool. Anti-props. If you can't be respectable, you sure as heck don't deserve any kind of props. We don't want fakes or liars. So in the words of C-ute, Momusu and Berryz; "Bye Bye Bye" "Baka" "Bye Bye" (Bye Bye Bye, Onna Ni Sachi Are, & Bye Bye Mata ne - totally minus any and all good feelings/lyrics)

RainbowCupcakeRanger is a new dubbing group that covers "the smaller groups of Hello!Project, such as Buono, Shugo Chara Egg, Guardians 4, etc." It currently has only three members, and isn't looking for new recruits at the moment.

"As of right now, we are only working on Buono's A-SIDES and B-SIDES." A cool thing about this group is that they are going to release their dubs in the same order that Buono did. So from start to finish! I think this is a fabulous idea! "We've never seen any project do this before, so we're hoping for the best"

The Cupcakes (aka; itadakimasu -- let's eat!) is the name of RCR's Buono group. In the future, there will be releases from the other groups as well; the Rainbows and the Rangers. lol, now the full name makes sense to me. Just put the three together! So far, one full single has been released, consisting of; "this is the real me!" / Honto no Jibun (A) & "egg of heart" / Kokoro no Tamago (B).

One reason I really like this idea, is that you have to sing the likes and the dislikes. Many people pick songs they like and/or are good at (which isn't a bad thing); but this way, all of the girls will probably end up singing a song that they don't care for or have difficulty with. In a way it's a challenge. Plus you have a set list to go by, so no trying to figure out which song you want to do next.

If you'd like to follow along, or are wondering what might be next, you can always have a look at hellproject.com (which I use a lot), and you can look for lyrics or a sort-of song list at projecthello.com.

"this is the real me!" (Honto no Jibun) / Okie's "wakaru" at 1:53 was incredibly adorable. She sounds real cute throughout the song. Risa really suits Miyabi! Her 1:03 solo was her best I think. I love the little trills Izumi did, like at 2:10 on her "aru." There was a random cough at one point (2:07) and sometimes the lines weren't always together, but!! I still really liked this. All three of these girls sound fantastic!




"egg of heart" (Kokoro no Tamago) / Same cast. I think the beginning to this was pretty good. You read the lyrics and see what English words your saying, but since they're english-into-japanese they come out a little bit different sounding. And sometimes I find it hard to not say the word how I'm used to saying it. So I think these girls did a good job at. . . .singing it how it's supposed to sung? idk if I making sense, lol.

I personally like the A-side more than the B-side, partly because I like the A song better. But this is a good release as well!! I really liked from 0:37 to about 0:41. Because the blending was epic there! Don't get me wrong, it's great throughout the dub, but that was one point it just sounded super good to me. Overall, the solos and group parts were fabulous.

~-~ A & B side together, I think this is a great first single from RainbowCupcakeRanger. There was about a month between the two releases and greedy little Aya will admit that she's hoping she won't have to wait another month for the next dub. But I know the girls are busy little bees, so I shall be patient. I subscribed! You should too.
