Bonjour Idol Morning Musume 18 Profile Picture

Looking for new challenges and happiness with Morning Musume ’18 in “Are you happy?/A gonna”

After Kudo Haruka’s graduation from the group in late 2017, the 13 idols of Morning Musume ’18 are back with their 65th single “Are you happy? / A gonna”, set for release on June 13th 2018. With drastically different two songs and MVs, Morning Musume ’18 prove one more time their fantastic ability to easily adapt themselves to various styles.

Are you happy?

In the very futuristic clubbing atmosphere of this MV, we find the group, led by Sato Masaki, in a hard quest to find happiness, despite an ocean of selfish and negative thoughts. The song is a mix of electro and dubstep, with a fast pace, emphasizing on the powerful solo parts. Through a sexy yet technical choreography and silver shiny costumes, Morning Musume ’18 are doing their best to seduce and make you happy.

A gonna

In a group that is constantly evolving, Ishida Ayumi and her teammates are questioning themselves about the future and are looking for new challenges to overcome. In an extremely different American hip-hop vibe, both visually and musically, “A gonna” offers a contrasted streetwear direction. The members show up wearing street dancer-like colorful outfits, and deliver a sharp choreography around the letter A.
