@Angel27454 --- Yup! She sings very well ang also she is so cute and pretty! People says she does not know how to sing! but for me she is a great singer :D Go KOHARU !!! :D
Koha truly does make everything great!! Even though she sings bad here. Its still a great performance because you can see how much effort she puts into it and how much she enjoys it and it makes u want to enjoy it too. She truly is a little miracle~chan
Aww Shes So Cute Wid Her Bad Singing nd Childishness :3 Look Her Loosing Her Breath Shes So Cute I Think She Will Do Great If She Stopped Wid Her Different Typed Singing Voice Every Now and Den I Wudnt Think Shes Bad I Think She Shudnt Change Her Voice Like Dat
she sounds so terrible here, I feel bad for her ;_; But she was soo young and small and everything, she must have been terrified too. she has improved a lot since this performance getting solos and all :3
esta huevada es el milagro???, canta pa el culo, y puxa ni de cara me gusta, porque no le meten un tampon en la boca que horror, de razon son amigas con sayumi cantan horroroso.
To be honest i consider her good at her 2nd concert appearence to the beginning of her anime. Now she does that annoying rounding sound with her voice
To be honest. Tsunku held auditiions for a member of Morning Musume AND for a person to do an anime. He wanted a cute girl with a 'HIGH-PITCHED' voice not a good one but a high-pitched so yeah she got the part even though she can't sing live but don't most American singers not sing live?
I think this was her first solo in MoMusu, and she looks really young here, so it's easy to see how nervous she is. She's gotten so much better, though! She just needs a couple more years, and she'll be amazing~!!!
She still being new at this time is not an excuse. Same goes with this song having the need to sing with a group. Aika did way better with her Osaka Koi no Uta (for someone who just entered). Plus, Osaka Koi no Uta is harder to sing alone.
Anyway, I prefer this Koharu compared to the current one. This one seems more sincere in what she's doing and she's not doing it for the sake of getting the spotlight. Unlike the current one with her 'cuteness'. What happened to her wanting to be cool?
"During her audition, she stated that she prefers the 'cool' images over 'cute.'"
-Wiki.theppn
Usually when people say prefer, it means they want it. Plus, since when does stating my opinion becomes a scolding? And since when does typing normally becomes yelling? SO DOES THAT MEANS WHEN I TYPE LIKE THIS IT MEANS THAT SAYING IT CALMLY?!?!
Ps: It seems that you don't really understand English. I'm actually complimenting her effort here.
I'm sorry if I'm being rude to you but I really hate it when people don't read properly before they comment. I suggest that you better read and understand what others write first because if you comment without reading, others would find it offensive and a little put off (considering that I don't really like Koharu but I'm actually complimenting her). Oh and English is my second language so you get what I mean... I hope. =3
And, look at my very first post... Was there any '?!?!' in there?
Yeah of course she is doing her best and everything, but you know Morning Musume is girl band and they SING, so I think it's stupid to put into band girls who can't even sing!
Just FYI, she almost never sings live. If you hear her mic rips from concerts, it's always just air projecting from her mouth and never actually sound.
She sounds out of breathe and out of tune... they should give her more practice singing live, but I guess she has been singing and dancing alot the evening but still...
i don't think it's that awfull... it's not good, but normally they sing this song with a complete group... when i tried to sing it on my own, i didn't have enough breath... and that seems to happen to her aswell
weird that some of you guys are comparing Koharu to senior/veteran members. This clip was in 2005. Koharu joined Momusu in 2005. How'd you expect her to be better? Comparing her to Airi (Cute) and Takahashi isn't proper also since this 2 had vocal training before even they joined Momusu. When comparing please use common sense and logic and be fair to the girls.
lol, the funny thing is that almost the end of this song, all the other members came out~ the feeling to me is that they came out to back koharu up! haha
Search for "hawaii Mizuiro Melody" and you'll see a Koharu solo video from early 2007 (14 months after this one). It shows good improvement all around and she'll continue to get better.
Is this the so-called "miracle one" in Morning Musume?? Sorry Koharu fans, but i don't like her at all, in this performance she's awful, in fact, she CAN'T SING LIVE... there are some people who believe that she is gonna be the next Goto Maki, forgive me, but i really don't think so, Gocchin at 13 had some amazing voice, Koharu needs to practice more (much more)
Keep in mind this was two years ago. (First solo? She was only active in the group for about two months at that point.) There's also a video somewhere that shows her struggling to learn the Iroppoi Jirettai dance. Watch her now. Her voice grates on some, but she's got more control over it, and she has tons of confidence dancing, too.
I think the "miracle" is her personality. She's ditzy and fun and the publicity surrounding her is a strategy to get kids interested in Momusu.
maybe you're right, but she should be chosen for her talent, not for a pretty face. She still can't sing live, she break her notes in every sudden move. I hope she gets better... For example, Sayumi already sings sorta better now.
She did it really bad...but she was nervous, so I undestand. But saying she´s only 12 it´s not a excuse...A lot of people sing better at the same age or minus (look at H!P Kids, C-ute or the ohters). And Momusu had a lot of 12 years members who did it great: Ai Kago, for example. And you can see in youtube a video of Takitty when she was 12, and she was amazing (and she wasn´t at Momusu! So cool!)
But this was 2 years ago so she was like 12 years old back then but she has been improving these past years she a really good singer now actually its true and shes only 14 nearly her birthday!
hay q reconocer q morning musume es un grupo muy unido, por q se dieron cuenta q koharu estaba nerviosa hasta los dientes y salieron a ayudarle XD si no koharu se hubiera visto peor XD
awwwwwwww Bless her !!!!!!!!!!! :D

What? Koharu didn't want to be cool.
She had to do a children's anime because of Tsu-....
It's not her fault!
She was about 13 in this.
She's gotten alot better.
Don't scold her,
What did she do to deserve it.
Even if she is a bad singer theres many more bad singers in the world don't yell at her like she's the only one.
