Dude the opening few seconds sounds identical LOL. Nice catch!

It could just be a random audio sampling used strictly for the video clip, but we'll see!

Hakkin no Yoake Track 8: "Imagination"
Lyrics, Composition and Arrangement: Kiyoshi Ryuujin

I see a curious coincidence.

dj_mischief

So 8 tracks in on both albums and we only have one Hyadain track?
Doesn't that seem strange considering they made such a big deal with the whole wrestling match thing?!? (my eyes, they still burn!)

ebizori

hyadain composed a song for Rev. from DVL, composed a song for a new single of Kobushi Factory (Hello! Project). it seems that he is gradually get out from Stardust )))

in fact, on the second album Ebichu it was only one his song, on the second album MCZ - 2 songs were. it's all right) I guess there will be 1-2 hyadain's songs in the new album of Ebichu, not more

nemurenatta

I don't think the whole rivalry and making up specifically meant that Hyadain would explicitly go back to composing many songs for Momoclo.
It was basically just a way to show that the argument and issues he had with Momoclo management were forgiven and forgotten.
It doesn't mean that he would go back to them full-time. He can choose what he wants to compose and what he doesn't just like he used to.

Way more excited about this than the Hydain song, to be honest. If you haven't heard any Kiyoshi Ryuujin, either through his solo work, his work for other groups (like Dempagumi.inc and Otome Shinto), or his own idol group, Kiyoshi Ryuujin 25, you're in for a treat.

I knew the name sounded familiar, he's the man with many wives :)) His songs are certainly awesome.

AMARANTHUS Track 9: "Bussouge". (A type of flower going by many names. Scientific name is hibiscus rosa-sinensis, colloquially known as Chinese hibiscus, China rose, Hawaiian hibiscus and shoebackplant.)
Lyrics and Composition: Sada Masashi
Arrangement: Kondou Kenji

Hakkin no Yoake Track 9: "MOON PRIDE"

AMARANTHUS Track 10: "Naite mo Ii n da yo"

Hakkin no Yoake Track 10: "'Z' no Chikai"

one more song from Kenichi

AMARANTHUS Track 11: "GUNS N' DIAMOND"
Lyrics: zopp
Composition: Kobayashi Yasuo and Okamura Nasuhiko
Arrangement: Okamura Natsuhito

Hakkin no Yoake Track 11: "Ai wo Tsugu Mono" (This is tough to translate because "tsugu" means "to succeed (especially in business or inheritance)" so normally it would be used to say like someone taking over a company or succeeding a predecessor. So I'm going to translate it like this: "What Comes After Love".)
Lyrics and Composition: Hyadain
Arrangement: Tom-H@ck

So basically they are pushing "Platinum.." to be the big seller of the two. Wonder if there will be a theme in each after all or if they just are sequencing the songs at random

AMARANTHUS Track 12: "Bye-Bye de Sayounara" (Basically, "baibai" is a common informal way of saying goodbye in Japan, so it's like "Saying Goodbye with a 'Bye-Bye'", but it's kind of hard to translate into English without being convoluted, and it kind of loses its meaning.)
Lyrics: Tadano Natsumi
Composition and Arrangement: Endou (from the band [?] GEEKS)

Hakkin no Yoake Track 12: "Mokkuro ni Naru Hate"

Would "Say Farewell with a Bye-bye" be closer to the intended sentiment? Farewell expresses the feeling of a somber, permanent goodbye, contrasted with the casual, informal feel of bye-bye.

nemurenatta

That could work. I tend to translate semi-literally though. Farewell in Japanese is "Saraba". So farewell may be a bit too sombre. Or not. It all depends on the lyrics and music of the song I suppose.

Uh. So everything changed. Now Track 1 is actually track 2 and goes from there, because they revealed a Prologue track for each album, so...

AMARANTHUS Prologue Track: "embryo -prologue-"
No Lyrics
Composition and Arrangement: tatsuo

Hakkin no Yoake Prologue Track: "Ko no A, Hajimari no Z". (I have no idea how to translate this. I don't think the first part is a common usage for the kanji "ko", a counter for certain things and a component of words about individuality, so the least I can say is that maybe the first part of the title has to do with that, but I can't guarantee that because there's nothing attached to the kanji that would actually confirm that. So I don't know.)
Lyrics: Tadano Natsumi
Composition and Arrangement: NARASAKI

And, the last tracks on the album!

AMARANTHUS Track 14: HAPPY Re:BIRTHDAY
Lyrics and Composition: Tika α
Arrangement: Yakushimaru Etsuko (the same person, but she uses the Tika α alias when credited for lyrics and music for some reason) and Yamaguchi Motoki

Hakkin no Yoake Track 14: "Pinku Zora" (The Kanji's furigana indicate this reading. The literal kanji reading would be "Momoiro Zora". This would translate to "Pink Sky").
Lyrics and Composition: Doumoto Tsuyoshi
Arrangement: Doumoto Tsuyoshi and Sogawa Tomoji

And with this we have the full track listing. Now all that's left is the waiting game...

I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS.

Mattthecat

I like the fact that except for a few these are mainly new songs
I never like these idol albums with basically all the singles and that's it

Howdy, Stranger!
