One Love – ARASHI Review!

Okay, I lied! I decided to do a review of Arashi’s latest single, One Love even though I should study for finals. :P
I think the whole “blog about C-ute” thing is kind of falling apart, ’cause I want to blog about all units! So, ignore the fact that the blog is named ºAbsol-ute ºC-ute, I WANT TO COVER EVERYTHING, INCLUDING JOHNNY’S.
But anyways, let’s begin reviewing some ARASHI!

PV
Eh. I didn’t like the weird animation thing where they looked all weird. The first time I saw them I was all, WHAT THE HELL TOO MUCH MAKE UP, until my brother pointed out that they were just edited. I like the PV, I guess, but it’s not exactly my favorite. If they weren’t edited to look like they were drawn instead of real people, I think I’d have liked it a little better. The PV is a little simple, but I guess they’re supposed to be at a wedding? Eh.
6/10 :(

Outfits
I couldn’t find a picture of their outfits. If anyone has one, send me it, please! :)
These outfits kind of made me go WHAT THE HELL, as well. NINO WAS WEARING SHORTS. WHY? Why would Nino wear shorts… ;_;
I do like Nino’s tie, though, it’s pretty cool.
I haven’t mentioned this before, but Matsumoto Jun is my favorite male idol/singer EVER, because he was in the first drama I ever saw, Gokusen. And that was before I got into jpop, so I actually looked him up and was all “omghawttt” before knowing he was in ARASHI. :P But, yeah, I don’t really like Matsumoto’s outfit. The jacket being buttoned only once made it look a little strange in my opinion.
No real complaints about the other outfits, but I think Sakurai had the best outfit.
5.5/10 DDD:

Song
Alright, the song saved this. I love this song. Catchy, calm, great chorus. I love this song A LOT and it’s just great. The only problem I guess I have is that it sounded a tiny bit boring in the beginning, and as Fly To High said in their review, the chorus is made of awesome. I also agree that this song is not as catchy as Love So Sweet (great song), but better than WISH.
10/10! :D

Overall: 7.2 =/
As you can see, I am in love with the song, but not with the outfits or PV. So, I guess I’ll be listening to the mp3 for a while, but not watching the PV that often.
