Osh baby

Long time no see~

It's getting difficult to update this blog because blogger keep automatically signing me in using my gmail account, while this blog is maintained using my yahoo account.

So I realized that the blog is quite embarrassing, so let's do some stuff to drown the embarrassing posts.


Let's start with moar utattemita love.
Some utattemita pick-ups:

My favourite version of the bandwagon song Sarishinohara is Ali's. But then again, it's because I'm quite biased towards her.


Sarishinohara by Ali






Of course because this is a bandwagon song and almost everybody covers it, some people may think that other's version is the best. The female versions of Sarishinohara that I know so far are Himawari (quite nice), Kano (quite a surprise because she doesn't sound loli like always), Nobunaga (okay), Baru (okay), Usa (not nice), Rishe (okay), etc. Some notable male utaite who cover this song are Clear, Dasoku, Soraru, Chomaiyo, and Ryo-kun, while the official utattemita version of this song is sung by Rib.

Well I never listen to the guy version so I have no comment.
But hey! It's true that Ali sounds very nice here. Her view counts are 35,000 which is very good. Nobunaga's is 40,000 and Himawari is 43,000 but you cannot compare them! Nobunaga and Himawari are famous and they have a lot of fans. Compared to them, Ali is a newcomer. The fact that she's having 35,000 view counts means that she's getting noticed :333




Natsu no Owari, Koi no Hajimari by Ali





While we're on the subject of Ali, I also really love her version of this song. Totally my favourite version of Natsu no Owari, Koi no Hajimari. A very good song by scop, btw!




MUGIC by Kakichoco, Ayaponzu, Vivienne, 96Neko, Wataame



(The Nico Nico version is not available because this song is supposedly only available in Baby Pod album, which means you have to buy the album if you want to hear this version of the song. The one available in Nico Nico Douga are the male version, which I'm not interested in.)

My current favourite!!!
If you love this song, you'll find out a hidden secret Christmas present that I put. It's quite embarassing (/3\) so don't tell everyone if you find it. I just thought that it would be fun to play a little hide-and-seek game.

Yeshh, this is awesomeness, baby. Bibian's rocker voice is very cool <3 <3




And lastly,

Answer by Lizz


My favourite version of Answer by Dixie Flatline. This version is by a Youtube utaite, so there's no Nico Nico version of it.

I KNEW IT!! You know, if you've been following Wotamin closely, it's very weird that she's usually active at night during weekdays. Sometimes I thought to myself "Is she not working?" "Is she working at home? Is she like a programmer or freelance designer or something who doesn't need to go to office?".

And I thought if she's really not working, how can she support herself? Me and my friends started thinking that she may come from a rich family. It's possible that she's a yakuza daughter xD especially since she never shows us her face. You know, yakuza daughter shouldn't be too well known as utaite, I think. XD

And she has too much free time. She posts new video every week, seriously.

"I'm thinking of making a reservation for end-of-year party. If I'm calling the izakaya (bar/pub) now, yay for many boobs... Of course there's a lot in this period ヽ(T∀T)ﾉ"

Necha's comment:
Sorry I don't understand the sentence structure. It seems like she's thinking of making a reservation for the party, and she's going to call the izakaya. From the comment, it looks like... Uhh... Sorry, the more I think about it, the more I don't understand. Please tell me if you do.

Wotamin: "Why did I just wake up 2 hours ago.." (it was around 3 am)

KonataP: "Good morning!"

Wotamin: "Morning! Should I try to go back to sleep.."

Eclair: "If you lie down, your body will think that you're tired, if I'm not mistaken >

Wotamin: "Iea!! Shushushushu (the sound of preparing the futon)"

Eclair: "So cute wwwwwwwwww Just like a cat wwww."

Necha's comment:

In the end she didn't go back to sleep. She had a nama, playing this game called Doraemon ~Nobita's Final Fantasy~. So it's like a Final Fantasy game, using the characters in Doraemon lol what a joke. And she was very cute when she was reading the dialogues with different expressions. I love her Shizuka's "Minna, matte yo~" lololol.

But it was 2 AM (3 AM in Japan) and I had to sleep, so I couldn't watch until the end (๑•́ ₃ •̀๑)

Baru: "fa-"

Wotamin: "Good morning"

Baru: "Wait a min~~~"

Baru: "(っω;`。)"

Kamidome: "*pats*"

Baru: "Where's Wotamin~?"

Baru: "(to Wotamin) I'm hungryyyy"

Baru: "(to Wotamin) "(っω;`。)"

Kamidome: "She was talking to me just now wwwww."

Baru: "Waaaaaaaa ｡ﾟ( ﾟஇωஇﾟ)ﾟ｡"

Kamidome: "( 'д'⊂彡☆))Д´) ﾊﾟｰﾝ"

Baru: "(ﾉ)；ω；)"

Kamidome: "(:D)┼─┤Calm down!"

Baru: "I've captured Wotamin!"

Kamidome: "Yay."

Baru: "Ai!"

Wotamin (*´ސު｀*)

Baru: "fa-"

Baru: "People with too much money are a bit scary ; ;"

Baru: My fringe was cut too short. I'm scared of tampering with it.

Wotamin: "Uwaa wwwwww your fringe wwwwwwwww what's that wwwwwwwwww f wwwwwwww r wwwwww i wwww n wwwww g wwww e wwwww is it bad? wwwww It's cut too short? wwwww It's cut too short wwwwww Are you serious wwwww oh wwwww noo wwww."

Baru: "You're laughing too much, yaro.........."

Wotamin: "Sorry, it's unintentional, because of sukiya."

Baru: "Gyuudon so nice."

Necha's comment:
Sukiya is a domestic beef bowl chain managed by Zensho Co. I assume Wotamin is eating something from sukiya. If not, I don't know what she means here.

Oh no, my moon looks like an ass ヽ(T∀T)ﾉ RT @wotamin25:http://bit.ly/rEZoMb

Necha's comment:

So apparently the utaite are talking about the moon tonight. I can't see anything from here, but apparently in Japan, it looks like there's an eclipse or something.

From December 5th, but this is just so cute that I have to put it here.

Policeman, it's this person, take him. RT@ultra_ten: When I'm looking at a small boy with a Christmas tree, the mother thinks I'm suspicious.

ENE: "HUNGRY."

Wotamin: "I want to try doing Clewotanero."

Eclair: "What's that, so nice."

Wotamin: "(*≧m≦*)"

Eclair: " (♥･ิｍ･ิ♥) hihi, I want to do WotaBaruRea (Wotamin, Baru, Eclair - Ekurea)"

Wotamin: "What's that, so nice."

Eclair: " (*・m・*)Let's do it."

Wotamin: "Hmm hmm!! Furuchin furuchin!!"

Eclair: "Furuchin furuchin! So funn."

Necha's comment:

I have no idea what the hell does "furuchin" mean, because from the internet, it's from "furu" (full) and "chin" (*cough*penis*cough*) so basically it means "showing one's dick" or other interpretation is "furu" (to swing) so it may mean "swinging the penis around". But I don't know whether it's applicable here.

Wotamin: "My hip hurts."
Eclair: "Minmin are you okay?"

Wotamin: "Here, this area hurts."

Eclair: "This? This part? There there (。-∀-)ﾉ"

Wotamin: "Ah /////"

Eclair: "( ´△｀)！Did your heart beat fast?"

Wotamin: "That, of course... Anybody would say the same thing!!///"

[Review] Voices in a Bottle

Yes yes yes so the Korean utaites (Kuripurin, Wataame, Guriri, Nobunaga, ENE) released an album called Voices in a Bottle. And my forum friend kindly shares the CD Ｏ(≧∇≦)Ｏ kyahh

Thus, this is my review.

Crossfade:

Tracklist & Review:

01. Lollipop Factory /All

Honestly, I prefer the vocaloid version to the utattemita version. Because the five of them except Guriri has the same type of voice.

The degree of similarity is like this:

Nobunaga - ENE - Wataame - Kuripurin

So Nobunaga's voice sounds like ENE, ENE's like Wataame's, and Wataame's like Kuripurin. Moreover, in Rin's part (not the bridge) Guriri uses her high girly voice, and BAM all the voices sounds similar. It's better if their voices are more diverse, like in the original songs.

(But it can't be helped, the five of them are the only korean utaites. I think whoever made the album wanted to use the "korean utaite" tag to promote the album.)

Overall, the song is very cute, as expected from OSTER Project.

02. Net Game Haijin Spechror (Acoustic Jazz Tri Arr.)/ Nobunaga

Nice! I really love how Nobunaga's voice fits the jazzy feeling of the song. But I like the original song, and I love jazz, so I might be biased.

But really, Nobunaga did a good job on this one.

03. Tooi Sora /Kuripurin & Wataame

If we're using my theory of their voice types (Nobunaga - ENE - Wataame - Kuripurin), Wataame shouldn't have a duet with Kuripurin and yes, I still think so. Their voices are a bit similar, so the impact is not very powerful. Or is it on purpose? Because originally this song is sung by Miku alone. Do they want to make it as if there's only one person singing the song?

As expected from Kuripurin and Wataame, they did a beautiful cover of this song. But the song itself is quite slow. I'm not fond of ballad songs, so this is the kind of song that will make me asleep.

04. glow (Piano & Strings Acoustic Arr.) /Guriri

Well, it's Guriri! What more can you say! Like usual, Guriri is full of emotion and she covered this song beautifully with her own style. She has a distinct type of voice, you can immediately tell that it's her.

(I'm not really fond of Guriri's voice type though. NOO GURIRI FANS, PLEASE DON'T BASH ME. It's just a personal preference. Her voice is like Kalafina, I'm not fond of Kalafina either.)

Nonetheless, I have to admit that Guriri always did a good job on her covers, including this one.

̶B̶u̶t̶ ̶m̶y̶ ̶f̶a̶v̶o̶u̶r̶i̶t̶e̶ ̶g̶l̶o̶w̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶s̶t̶i̶l̶l̶ ̶S̶e̶r̶i̶y̶u̶'̶s̶.̶

05. Bungaku Shounen no Yuutsu (acoustic Jazz Trio Arr.) / Kuripurin

OMG THIS IS THE EPITOME OF AWESOMENESS. Okay, excuse my exaggeration, but I really really love Kuripurin's version of this song, especially because the song is very difficult to sing. The chorus is just too high and not so many people can do it right. But Kuripurin... As expected from Kuripurin, she's able to do it nicely.

But if you don't like her whiny voice, you may think it's annoying. (I love it though)

And there's no preview for this song. You have to download buy the album to listen to her awesomeness.

06. DIAMOND /Nobunaga & Guriri

This is an original song, so there's no vocaloid version of this. Oh well, Nobunaga and Guriri did a very good job on this. Guriri managed to show off her powerful voice, and to make it better, Nobunaga is able to catch up with her.

Moreover, they did the right thing by pairing up Nobunaga and Guriri, because their voice types are the complete opposite, thus it sounds like they're complementing each other.

07. Puzzle (Piano & Strings Acoustic Arr.) /ENE

Ah, ENE's voice is beautiful, and the cover is beautiful. But really, sometimes she doesn't change the way she sings throughout the whole song, and this can make people bored. Some of my friends can't listen to the full song. Moreover she sounds like she's singing without expression, like this --> (･_･) She sounds wonderful at the bridge part, though.

The piano and strings arrangement makes it even sounds like a ballad song and I can't help but to doze off. If you love slow songs, you may like this :D

08. Mimic (Acoustic Jazz Trio Arr.) /Wataame

This is good! Okay maybe I'm a bit biased because it's jazzy but I'm usually not fond of Wataame's voice and the way she sings (sometimes she doesn't open her mouth big enough, like in the verse) but when she moved to the refrain, I was stunned. Maybe I don't listen to enough covers by Wataame, but I like how she puts in her emotion here. And her voice suits the instruments behind.

For me, it's a very good cover by her. From now on I'm a fan of Wataame :DD

Again, they never release a preview for this song, so maybe you can find somebody who ripped the album and put it in youtube or something if you want to listen to it.

09. Yes, /Nobunaga &ENE

NOOO!!! Again, from this -> (Nobunaga - ENE - Wataame - Kuripurin), Nobunaga shouldn't do a duet with ENE!!! Their voice types are very very similar, even more similar than Wataame and Kuripurin. It really feels like there's only one person singing this song.

Okay maybe Nobunaga's voice is slightly thinner than ENE, but for the untrained ears they really sound the same. What's the point of the duet then?

Both of them sound lovely though.

10. Torinoko City /ENE (re-recorded)

Honestly, I think her earlier version is slightly better. Although she's more expressive here, to me it sounds like she's annoyed.

But I've always loved ENE's Torinoko City, I still think that this is a very good cover.

11. Shinkai Shoujo / Nobunaga

It's so cute (´；ω；`)

Well, I think Nobunaga's voice and the way she sings fit this songs very well. It wont' be this good if the others sing it.

12. Lollipop Factory (hangeul version)

SO CUTEEE!!! Lolol it's a bit weird to listen to this in hangeul, because it certainly doesn't sound like k-pop songs.

Overall:

The only songs that I will play over and over again is Kuripurin's Bungaku, Nobunaga's Net Game, Wataame's Mimic, (maybe) Nobunaga & ENE's Yes, and Nobunaga's Shinkai Shoujo.

No Guriri, cos I don't like her voice type. It's personal preference, I'm not very objective towards Guriri >_< but I think if you're normal you will like her glow and DIAMOND.

This is a very good album overall. I would like to buy one :3

(I will ask my friend who's going to Japan next year to buy one for me)

Necha's comment:

Lolol so today is Bibian's birthday, and she keeps telling people that she's 18 (which is impossible lol). Btw tudiken is emon(Tes.). You can see his mylist here. 

He made Juliette to Romeo, which is officially covered by Kuripurin, and he's the one who made Seidenki, which is officially covered by Bibian and Ten, and of course the ones that I like the most are Yozora Iro Sympathism and shake it! that are covered by Himawari.
