[10/15] Morning Musume。'14 57th single - TIKI BUN/Shabadabadoo~/Mikaeri Bijin

[CaptainBerryzGiraffe]

Well, not in december since that's after Sayu's graduation.
...Also, we still have a while to november (3 months) so they wouldn't announce an album yet.

[Sohee]

So? Fantasy Juuichi had platinum era girls, but was released after Eri, Junjun and Linlin graduated.
And unless I'm wrong, the same thing happened with 12, Smart and Aichan as well.

[Mixi]

12, Smart and Fantasy! Juuichi were send off albums (SEXY 8 BEAT as well), and (some of) the tracks that were released on them served as new material for the next gen girls to perform. With Sayu out and new girls in, it would only make sense for Morning Musume '14 to release their... 14th original album.

[Starra]

I still maintain that we better have some kind of ’14 ALL pun. C'mon, UF, it's right fucking there.

[esm]

ONE FOR '14 or something

[CaptainBerryzGiraffe]

So I've been thinking... does it really make sense to put
A song that has all
A song of Sayu
A song without Sayu
all in sayu's graduating single? I mean, isn't the point of this that it's Sayu's last single? So why should the last song be without sayu? I understand it's saying "Goodbye" to sayu, but it's still strange..

[AyuHikaru]

I'd like to think of it as:
The Present (Together)
The Past (Sayu)
The Future (Without Sayu)

[CaptainBerryzGiraffe]

I guess... and I guess it also has a solo sayu and 2 sayu songs anyway like other graduation singles...

[esm]

"Kare to Issho ni Omise ga Shitai" from Ai-chan's grad single didn't have very much Ai in it.

[CaptainBerryzGiraffe]

But you'd think that for an era ending, (aka the fact that everyone is like "this is the end of the link to the past mm ;-;") they would put sayu all over it, which they did, but not in one of the songs.
but, I guess if you think about it, it's as if Mikaei Bijin is a B-side, like in Reina's graduation single where she wasn't in all the B-sides.
(uf... bring back b-sides. >.>)
