User blog:JoshuaJSlone/Cover Morning Musume & Cover Morning Musume Hello! Project!

Hey guys. So sometimes online I'd see a little information about a couple albums of Hello! Project English language covers from about a decade ago, though not a whole lot of information, and with only a few of its songs to be found on YouTube. So though I generally didn't hear good things about them, eventually I got curious enough I ordered a copy of the album collecting the tracks from both. Now that I have it, I'm doing my bit to share the sort of information online I wish I'd been able to find before.

Yesterday I made a YouTube video with 25 second samples of the tracks originally from the first album centered mostly on Morning Musume, and today did the same for the second which takes from a broader range of Hello! Project groups. Many of these takes are not to my taste and just seem super weird if you're used to the originals, but I think a few of them are pretty solid.

I'm gathering what information I can to make pages for them here, but am unsure whether they're best stuck in with the Off Topic forum pages. It's not like these are unofficial, but they also were released by Universal Music instead of any branch of Up-Front that I can see, and it doesn't seem Up-Front folks had a lot to do with it--Tsunku and some J.P.Room guy are given Special Thanks.
