Morning Musume

All right, as your man in Japan I'll try to make sense of this, though I haven't seen it before now:

The group is called Mini Moni. It is a spin-off from a wildly successful J-pop band called Morning Musume. Morning Musume number around 15 members now, too many cute young girls to choose from, most of them underage to cater to the cute-craze that is so prevalent here (and to cater to the lolicon complex that's fairly evident).

Morning Musume have many spin-off groups. The gimmick with Mini Moni is that ALL of the members are less than 5' tall. The song itself is called 'Aiin dansu no ???', which means '??? of the love dance'. Not too sure what the kanji reads, it's a little difficult to read. You'll notice at around 50 seconds they all introduce themselves with the suffix 'hime', they're basically trying to be princesses of cute. And they're screaming out 'Aiin' so repetitively.

I can honestly say the only interesting member is the cute one with orange hair (and no bandana). She's just a lot of fun in her interviews. Morning Musume also have their own show every Sunday, after that comes a show centring on 'Nyusu', who are basically the male version of Morning Musume.

Not sure who the kabuki guy in the video is, though.

Anyway, there you go, a little lesson in Japanese pop culture. Need anything else explained?

Not as wacky, but a cute song above. Many thanks to Esola-kun (RIP Nydian) for the above link.

edit: oh and cheers for the link Soulfly, great stuff, I'll buy their album so my students and I can finally have some common ground to talk about, heehee.

edit II: on the third viewing I manged to make out the title: Aiin! Dansu no Uta. It means LOVE! Dance's Song, when translated literally. That's it, no more viewing!

Hey Svartur! Nice to hear from you! Send me a PM if you do decide to come over this way and need a drinking partner in Tokyo!

And just for that friendly reception I've translated the song in the last ten minutes. You’ll probably find a better translation somewhere on the net, but here’s my attempt (notice the word 'tondemonai' has many interpretations so I've used as many as I can in this song):

Ariiiiibaaaaa

No, no as a child I found a secret underground organisation, fronted as a 'How to throw bricks' masterclass it actually taught us how to read, write, use a computer, and to know that sticking a building consisting of round metal discs in the middle of town is not a good idea.
