Chisato + Airi = New duo please!

These two have always been the best vocals in C-ute. However, I never would of thought they'd end up at the top of Hello! Project too!

Look here for 'ONLY YOU', here for 'Daite yo! PLEASE GO ON', here for 'Shabondama', here for 'Melodies', here for 'Kioku no Meiro' and here for an acapella version of 'Urahara'.

  

 And just when you think, "those are familiar looking matching pigtails" . . . . 

Here is 'Koi no Vacance'!!! 

Unfortunately it seems Chisato is never happy!

"I recently received the DVD
of the ChisaAi event and watched it,
and my singing style
is too careless~
so I was frustrated
that I wasn’t able to sing as I would have liked"

(Quote from Chisato's blog entry on the 16th of February. Translation by the kind folks at blog!project.)

Hello! Project need some new groups.

I don't mean fresh faces, I mean they need to utilise the faces they have. Remember subgroups like Tanpopo, Petit Moni and Mini Moni. Random thrown together groups like Gomattou and Def. Diva. I reckon H!P would really benefit from a few new units (is that the word?). It would allow them to promote the girls as individuals rather than just one large shapeless entity. Now what is needed is ideas.

Recently I have been loving this.

Unfortunately I feel that Risako is the only one who really pulled this off. I then came accross a video of C-ute's Chisato singing the same song and loved it.
So here is new group idea number one :
3 members - Niigaki Risa, Sugaya Risako, Okai Chisato.
In my opinion, these are three members who are not technically the best singers but all have voices that are among the most unique and interesting in H!P. This is also a group that would have a lot of power or, for lack of a better word, "oomph".





New group idea number two:
4 members - Michishige Sayumi, Fukumura Mizuki, Nakajima Saki, Fukuda Kanon
After the great 'Suki da na kimi ga' I have wanted a group doing stuff in that cutesy electro-pop genre. I would also love to see this group do songs like 'Momoiro Sparkling' or even something like 'Otome Pasta ni Kandou'. Basically a sweet sugary group.

  I would want this group to have this kind of bold, colourful image.
