Fresh new live photos of Miya! She’s wearing Seishun Bus Guide outfit and she looks absolutely stunning. Cosplay ala Berryz Kobo indeed. This kind of PVC outfits must be very hot when dancing and jumping around the stage. They must be sweating a lot during concerts. Maybe even more that those crazy dancing wotas in the audience.

So, who’s The Best with MY BOY?

Taking a nap

Once again I got an idea for this post from MorningBerryz. It’s time to take a nap with Berryz Kobo girls.

In deep sleep your consciousness disappears and you are at the state of “far away from here”. But when you are taking a short nap your sleeping is light and you can easily wake up when someone for example calls you.

Have you ever thought why there are many paintings in the history of art which portrays sleeping girls and women? I myself guess that it has something to do with the fact that when you’re in sleep you are mostly more relaxed than when you’re awake. Meaning that you are in the state of pure naturalness. And that makes sleeping girl’s face to show pure beautifulness without any conscious facial expressions.

Definition:
There are 5 stages of sleep. Stage 1 is light sleep where you drift in and out of sleep and can be awakened easily. In this stage, the eyes move slowly and muscle activity slows. During this stage, many people experience sudden muscle contractions preceded by a sensation of falling. When taking nap you are in this first stage of sleep.

This clip is from Berryz Kobo DVD Magazine Vol. 4. Sleeping beauties:

Then another clip about sleepy girl. I’ve posted this clip before but doing it again because it’s so funny and a classic of it’s kind. Rii falling in sleep as she is eating pop corn:

MY BOY in 40′s style

I’m sure you remember this dude named P-chu who had his Piano Labs blog on VOX. He did many interesting new arrangements on various Hello! Project songs and played them then with his electric piano but for some reason he does not have that blog any more. Fortunately he still has his YouTube ChuNatsuPata channel where he posts his piano works.

Buono!s MY BOY is the latest song which has been transformed by ChuNatsuPata. You can recognise the original song only from chorus parts of his new arrangement. Again very surprising piano version. ChuNatsuPata’s inspiration for this version comes clearly from jazzy tunes of Hollywood’s golden age of movie musicals. Now we go as far as into the 1930′s and 1940′s when such great movie stars like Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers were singing and dancing in the boom of movie musicals.

In the heart of MY BOY ChuNatsuPata finds an easy swinging jazzy flow. I find this discovery very amusing because, believe it or not, I love old Hollywood musicals. I can almost see how Fred and Ginger dance to this version of MY BOY surrounded with a hundred of chorus girls.

The Ultimate Single V

Posted on May 22, 2009 by zush.

This morning arrived a grey parcel from Hong Kong which I had been waiting for so impatiently. This time my purchase contained two different limited editions of Morning Musume’s “Shouganai Yume Oibito” and Buono!s “MY BOY Single V”. All great releases but last one is the most “scrumptious”.

Of all Buono! video singles I think “MY BOY” is the best one.

First of all “MY BOY” is the best single song from Buono! so far. This trio has done so great singles before that it’s almost frightening to say that this latest one is even better than all the previous singles. But it’s true. And even more frightening it is to wait and see can Buono! make it even better with the future releases.

So… We have awesome song and stunning PV. Can Single V be then anything else than fantastic? No it can not. Besides original PV “MY BOY Single V” has Close-up and Dance Shot versions plus 20 minutes long Making of documentary. All together around half an hour Buono! coolness!

Dance choreography for this song is real eye catcher. It’s fast, it’s funny and it’s sexy. In this dance performance Momo steals the spotlight. She really enjoys what she is doing there. Amusing to see now the whole choreography, every little detail of it.

But as for looking cool in black it’s Action Girl Miya who wins. She doesn’t even need a stunt when jumpring down from window. A couple of Miya captures lastly. ;)
