Yuke Yuke Mediocre Dance Review Edit

So, I reviewed Berryz Koubou’s new single too early, and now I want to add on a score for their B-side, which I recently downloaded.

B-side – Maji Good Chance Summer
I love this B-side a lot more than its A-side. It begins with Risako saying something. She says something like “Moshi moshi, uh, Okaa-san? Ano ne?” so I assume she’s calling her mom to ask her something. Then the song starts. It’s very upbeat and happy. I like it and it’s a lot more catchy and easy on the ears than Yuke Yuke. There’s a lot of Risako, Miyabi and Momoko, but that’s expected. Midway through the song, Risako talks to her mom again. Judging from the tone of her voice, she’s shocked about something. Overall, it’s a catchy song and will raise the single’s rating quite a bit.
9/10

With a new addition, let’s reevaluate the single!
Song: 6/10
PV: 5/10
Outfits: 5/10
Dance: 6/10
B-side: 9/10

Previous overall: 5.5/10
Current Overall: 6.2/10
So, the B-side raised this single’s rating up by 0.7!

Yuke Yuke Monkey Fail…I mean, Dance – Berryz Koubou

I don’t like this single. I want this single to go die in a fire. Don’t get me wrong, parts of it are okay, I guess, but the whole package? Ugh.
Well, time to review the positive and not-so-positive parts of this single.

Sorry for the lack of posting recently, finals and all that stuff, you know? School will end on Thursday so I’ll have a longer post in a few days!

Uh, random thought I had: Berryz Koubou and Perfume are releasing their new singles (Yuke Yuke Monkey Dance and love the world, respectively) on the same date. I wonder if this will affect their sales. I think everyone has been anticipating this single, since it should be fairly popular, and Berryz Koubou’s new single might be overlooked in all the excitement! That kind of worries me.
