Hi everyone~♪

愛子 needs to start coming on here again~

And I am proudly announcing that the main purpose of this blog post is not Hello! Project related! It’s Otsuka Ai related. She’s an artist that I have recently started to like. I especially like her songs Planetarium and Pocket. She’s just meant to sing ballads, I think. （●≧w≦●）

Some of her other songs are good, too, especially White Choco.  But to me, her voice just seems to be mean to sing ballads.  I’m not sure exactly what it is, but her voice has such a genuine tone to it.  It’s like she really means what she sings, and what she sings is beautiful~ （゜ー゜）

Now I listen to her music when I really need to relax.  Resonant Blue was released this week and tensions are high, after 3 days on the market.  So when I’m relaxing after work, or when I’m hanging out with Sayumi or Risa or anyone, really, I listen to these songs and sing them at karaoke and I instantly just go into some sort of dream land.  It’s very calming, really. （￣∀￣；；）

Speaking of Resonant Blue, the sales have been pretty good!  Much better than Mikan was.  I was sad when Mikan did so poorly, but I guess it just didn’t appeal to the fans?  Oh well.  Resonant Blue has done very well, staying in the top 5 on the daily chart for three days.  It will do great, I think.

Morning Musume’s tour started this week.  And the set list is kind of tiring （〇＿〇；；

Singing all the singles is hard, especially since some of those singles are very rarely performed.  Especially singles like Manatsu no Kousen (another one of those relaxing songs) and THE Manpower!!!.

I guess i don’t know exactly what else to write about.  Except for one thing:

GOOD LUCK TO RESONANT BLUE! (●≧ｗ≦●）

愛子 is leaving~
