| Tsunku's comments about the single:[1]
"‘HEY! Mahiru No Shinkirou’ ‘This Is Oriental Funk’ This is a sexy dance beat that they haven’t sung for a long time. I arranged lots of oriental flavor into the sound. The girls have experienced a wide variety of sounds, and I set the goal for this album pretty high for them. I am very happy for their ability to deliver the “soulfulness” that I wanted to express. Shinoda’s shout, Inaba’s fast-paced singing style, RuRu’s powerful vocal, and Kominato’s unique arrangement are to me, all satisfactory. Arranged by Matsubara Ken, whose popularity is increasing in a rapid speed, the song was completed with a beautiful mixture of intensity and elegance. I think the girls had lots of fun singing this song. Please enjoy." |
