I can't believe I never seen this thread before...........anyways, has anyone heard AKB48's new single called Manatsu no Sounds Good? It's an okay song, but it's not as good as Everyday and Ponytail.
Namie's new album title is now confirmed as 'Uncontrolled' out June 27th!
Also she's supposedly going on a dome tour in November. Most likely for the best album she's releasing after 'Uncontrolled'
& yes some more shameless promo from myself:

Probably one of their best "summer style" singles up there with Heavy Rotation. Heavy Rotation will always be my number one (followed by River then Beginner) but this is great. Haven't actually seen the PV yet; should I?

So when do you think the Best album will be released? Uncontrolled itself in a way is almost like a singles collection/BEST.

Yes! It's quite... interesting. It's a bit of summer-time bikini fun mixed in with some post-apocalyptic drama. That's Japan for you.
My top 10 AKB48 songs:
1. Heavy Rotation
2. Beginner
3. Ponytail to Shushu
4. Give Me Five!
5. River
6. Everyday, Kachuusha
7. Manatsu no Sounds Good (this spot originally belonged to 'Oogoe Diamond')
8. Kaze Wa Fuiteiru
9. Iiwake Maybe
10. Flying Get
I'm looking forward to Namie's new album. She, Utada and Meisa are my favorite J-pop singers. I barely listen any other J-pop stuff, with exception for maybe Koda Kumi.
I just hope that Queen Meisa gets her baby quick and then starts working on her third studio album. I'm already starving for new music.
