“What kind of name is Foxy?” … “Obviously a case of truth in advertising.”

Not sure if I shared this with you already. Not that I care. The more Nogi you get the better your life will be. This is Nogizaka46’s 18th single Nigemizu 『逃げ水』.

I’ve come around on this song. At first, I didn’t like it, but the more I listen the better it gets for me. Most of the time it brings me a smile.

I’m hoping it brings one to you.

Nogizaka46 3rd Album, 「生まれてから初めて見た夢 」, “The Dream I Saw the First Time Since I Was Born.”

Get it.

Got it.

I don’t think the new songs are as good as their first two albums. The songs sound too much alike. The only saving grace is that there are some funky units, member pairings, that make for some interesting songs. I’m always up for alternative member units.

Nogizaka46 doing a cover one of their official rivals biggest hits, “Heavy Rotation.” It’s almost all of the fukujin from the 17th Single. It’s missing my oshi, Ikuta. She’s off doing some musicals, being an actress, and getting closer to reaching her goal: musical actress.

Today is also Hoshino Minami’s birthday! I wish her a happy 19th. We need more bagels, please!

Zepp Diver Sometime in 2014

Awesome live from Nogizaka46. Judging by their uniform this was around KidzuKata, their 7th single. They did the full version of the song rather than the short 3 minute versions. It’s hard to find a live of the full version, so consider yourself lucky, and you can even catch a glimpse of Yada Risako who was a kenkyusei for a short time.

At The End There’s A New Album

Thievery Corporation came into their own with the ascendancy of W. Maybe we’ll get more good music with the dumb Republican elect. Fuck that guy. But we need some more good music. Let’s listen and think.

Lonely Brothers

In these trying times of Donald Trump as president elect, we need something to make us happy. Nogizaka46 makes me happy. Here’s a guitar cover version that is pretty great. I’m hoping for many happy Nogi songs for the next 4 years.

I want to treasure the spare moments and live leisurely

Because Naachan is so adorable. Because WakaRei. Because Yuttan seems so devious. Because Kanarin has a part. Because Inoue/Marika pairing.

This song is some kind of sweetness. I’m also fascinated this sub-unit of Nogizaka46. The members who are singing had another song, Hoka no Hoshi Kara . It’s not as sweet, but it is just as nice.

*sigh*

Nogis making me kookoo.
