Morning Musume's 23rd Single
Morning Musume's newest single is called "Joshi Kashimashi Monogatari" ("Story about Noisy Girls") and will come out July 22nd, it will cost 1517 yen. So far, if you have heard the radio preview, it features all the girls singing a blurb about each member and of course, a chorus inbetween member parts. Cover is below. (Personally I don't understand why the cover is so serious and mature, the sound is quite like old Momusu, very happy and upbeat.)
