Morning Musume is going to cover "Pepper Keibu"?! This is going to be fun. How do I know? Simple:

• As we already know from "Morning Musume no Hyokkori Hyoutan-jima," the b-side to "Egao YES Nude," Berryz' "Dschingus Khan," W's early work, "LALALA Shiawase no Uta," and just about every concert performance and episode of "Berikyuu!"/"Uta Doki!" (even if some of the listed may or may not count as "covers" per se), H!P can do covers and they can do them good. How will Morning Musume are out with their second cover single? I see good fortune in the stars (speaking of stars, given its (the song's) significance, don't you dare bellyache about Takitty getting 70% of the lines (50% of that that 70% slice of the pie had better be shared with (if not, given to) Niigaki-san. If not, expect Gaki fans to riot and revolt).
• I may not have heard the original Pink Lady version but I fell in love with the song through GO!GO!7188's version. Those who have heard it know how kickin' awesome it is! I need not explain further.

As for the b-side, I'm not as familiar with the song as I am with the A-side but I sure hope it's a fantastic cover (but when was a H!P cover bad?). Plus, it'd better surprise me (even line distribution please, if this is fot Takagaki's fling and *insert random jab about Tanaka trying to steal the show from Gaki-san using her wota army*).

One other hope: Great costumes and a stellar PV. (Wait a minute! That's two! Meh, being a H!P fan takes a lot of patience and wishful thinking. Before I fall out of love with H!P for good, what are some good idol groups and other J-music artists? Been getting somewhat interested in AKB48 and I'm starting to like Shiina Ringo's work after having a taste. So, if you have any recommended J-idol/rock/indie acts, give me a shout out. Darnit, Kat! Stay focused!).

Back to our topic: I see good things on the horizon for Momusu's 37th. Go Musume! Kick butt! For the sake of a first impression, I've decided to withhold reading all blog posts related to this event (though I do admit I read Nakane's color-coded lyrics (those who read it know how... I won't spoil it for those who don't know) and Arashi's post but hopefully, I'll forget all of that by the time I post this).

In other news, Morning Musume's releasing a cover album of 70's song this November. (Why does this remind me of W's first album? Meh, it's not important). Supervised by Hiroshi Itsuki (whou would also appear on the album apparently, according to IW),

P.S. If you can figure out what the title of this post refers to, I'll give you a strawberry from the "strawberry fields" for "baby, you're a rich man"!

(BTW what's a good place to host a blog besides Vox?)
