NEWS got the no.1 again, as expected. Aqua Timez got it good this time around with Gokusen 3's theme. Shuchishin is like the new Thelma, going very strong with their debut single!
Selected songs from last week:
"SUMMER TIME" by NEWS - What a typically boring song *sigh*. The B-sides are even more bleh than Taiyo no Namida...
"Niji" by Aqua Timez - It's quite nice, though I feel that their songs for Bleach are much better...
"MOTHER" by SEAMO - Happy Mother's Day!
"changes" by Base Ball Bear - Definitely my favourite! I hope they'll be recognized more in the future :)
"JUNGLE DANCE" by Nana Tanimura - Catchy dance track from Avex' new star...
"Ooh..." by Nana Tanimura - Her unexpected high octave in the last verse surprised me. I think if Avex plays her card right, she can really be a force to be reckoned with...
"I believe you ~Ai no Hana~" by Rina Aiuchi - It's pretty rare for Rina-san to indulge in ballads but this is actually pretty good...
