@Lillyflowergirl123 When you work really close with people though, a relationship develops, even if its just a professional one. Also remember, these three women (plus two others) were given one last chance to make it to fame after losing a competition, and they succeeded. They had to use this song (single) to do it, and what became of their success is Morning Musume. It was quite literally the first song ever sung by them as a group, so it's packed with emotions for the 1st Generation.
It's uncanny how they were all in tears 12 years ago on the "First Live" dvd during the same song! The lyrics are very emotional - love starting out as something small, and then growing into something big.
Oh, and we know how close the 4 of them were, but they treated Asuka terribly, which is why she invented the ruse about leaving to go to school in America, which kinda put a damper on the "Memory" dvd for me - crocodile tears.
Aya Ishiguro and Asuka Fukuda being up there would have been perfect.This song has just that touch of melancholy anyway, and this was the song that changed their lives forever- actually surprised they didn't lose it sooner while singing this song under these circumstances....
aww, at the end when her and Nacchi started crying I started crying too but then I saw Kaorin being strong and cheering them up and that made me happy :3
She was like 27 years old, are you for real? High school?
They were the remaining 1st gen members and they were singing their first song. She is crying because she felt nostalgic and realized how much she was going to miss the group.
Graduation is the term used when a girl leaves the group. Yuko was the first to leave the group but stay in H!P as a soloist.
I was just surprised you thought High School hahaha everyone always made fun of how old she was, I bet she would try to marry you if she knew you said that about her lol
you can almost see her replay all those all those good moments on her face and near the end it gets the best of her and she gets so emotional. Yuu-chan was so sweet and loved her MM
I see. So can you let me know where I can get them complete?. I'd appreciate it very much. Thanks man, for the prompt response to all questions. Peaceee...
This is so Kawaii. It sucks that the blond one is leaving. Also I've never seen a blond Japanese girl, but she pulls it off wonderfully. The part where they start to cry makes me so sad.
I've been reading about graduating from the elder's club for a while, please excuse my ignorance but ... what is that and what does it mean. Enlighten us with a bit of information, we'd appreciate it very much, thanks.
It means they will be leaving Hello!Project. They might still stay with Upfront Agency, but they won't be participating in H!P shows, concerts, appearances and groups. They are essentially moving on to new stages in their careers. At least those who will still have a career after.
yesh it's easy to get emotional on somethinig like this. it was their first single, that started everything, so i'm sure it brings back memories of all the hard work they did that brought them this far.
At 3:25 it gets harder to watch! I love these girls!
