It sounds like any other typical summer song from JE, unfortunately. There's nothing new about it, and I keep wondering whether their performance will actually be better this time around. Most of Taiyou no Namida performances have been pretty disappointing, to say the least. But this sounds like a simpler song to sing and won't strain their vocals much, even the rap parts are easy.

Overall, I don't think that NEWS' fans need to worry about sales for this single. It's taking advantage of the Golden Week! That's not something that KT or HSJ will have.


Sou ka? Well..I think it's a fun and a catchy song and what makes it special is because NEWS is singing it :mrgreen: I agree though about Taiyou no namida~ I love the song too but it would be better if the live perfomances were as good as the recorded ones or better than that! (if possible ^_^)
I think they're pretty good in singing live in SC especially tegosh~ And when they sound a bit tired, I'd just consider that an OK perf~I'm always giving them a chance haha! But yeah, I admit that there are times of 'not ok' perfomances. However, I believe that NEWS is getting better and better!!~~

well.. i have to agree.. their live perfs are a little disappointing :hehe: even their taiyo no namida perfs..i guess all je bands are like that.. even arashi have their dull momments.., but of all the bands i enjoy arashi's perf the most! anwya i have already accepted that fact adn loving news means accepting even their bad perfs :rofl: but their concert performances are extremely good!! i enjoy wathing them.. and i can really say that it brings out the best in them ^__^ but i enjoy their weeeek performances and cherish :muack:

what i don't agree in is that summertime is a typical song. i actually think it's good.. the koyashige rap is kawaii and is really something new from news.. :beaten: and yes, hopefully their sales are better than tnn.

Iza_Yanti: enjoy!!!

well has anyone read yesterday yamapi's nikki? haha.. tomayama what a combination.. TomaPi was just nice ne...

I like summer time even I aspect the song a little bit more fast and funky.. but the rap part save the whole song... koyashige did a great job... of course NewS was not the best group perf.. I do love KK, Arashi and SMAP perf, but what I love most was... K8! ha ha... (addicted to their latest wahaha single..)

I tought that NEWS lip-synch 70% of the time in concerts, that's why they sound good. I won't say that their cons are good though, because I've seen better in Kanjani8 (the best live performers currently among the younger groups and they even sing live 100% of the time!), Arashi and KAT-TUN (though I'm also not a fan). I think most NEWS cons are dull. There's a reason why I dubbed Never Ending Wonderful Story as Never Ending Boring Story, you know! :hehe:

Oh well, I better run away from the wrath of NEWS' fans before I cause more troubles! :mrgreen:

Does anybody here think that SUMMER TIME PV have this very eerie resemblance to Kanjani8's Wahaha? Make me mad...somehow.

Heheh, to be honest, knowing how for example Shige mostly sucks singing live, I really do prefer lip synch.. But of course it would be better if they trained some live singing. Right now Tegoshi and Ryo do it really well, probably because they do it nearly always, but also Yamapi is decent(sometimes better, sometimes not). Massu is ok, depends on the song.. Anyways I prefer lip synchs from those who dont sound good live, only that they have to sing live sometimes so we can hear if they've developed at all :hehe:

True also, which makes me a very proud Kanjani8 fan because they even sound amazing singing live! :mrgreen: Even Hina, who I did not expect at all, singing live AND dancing at the same time and still sounds good! Of course, Subaru, Yasu, Ohkura, occasionally Ryo and Maru have always been good singing live, and Yoko was gaining ground on the others that his solos keep surprising me. Now this is true talent! :mrgreen:

Of course, I'm deviating from the real topic again.

Well then let's continue with this. My eyes roll everytime I saw this PV, because I couldn't help but watch Wahaha after that. It's like SUMMER TIME-Wahaha-SUMMER TIME-Wahaha and the more I watch it, the more I dislike the PV. I can cite more than 10 reasons why it shouldn't have copied Wahaha's style, and when it gets to the ending, I thought, how much more un-original can they get? It's so Wahaha-inspired that only the bee is missing. Thank God there's no other mascot to replace it! SUMMER TIME really feels like Wahaha Part 2! :grumble:

Ano-san.. I haven't watched the whole PV of SUMMER TIME - I only watched a bit(really busy, didn't have the time) and thought it was a bit the same like the PV of Wahaha.. I honestly didn't like what you said about NEWS~ :hehe: However, it looks like the PV is quite the same.. Tadashi! I will watch SUMMER TIME's PV to make sure of it.
It's obvious that you don't like NEWS, but do you ever consider of giving them a chance? :mrgreen:
