9. キューティーハニー (Cutie Honey)

kIw7qWo.png

8.25

 

misonos: romiskes, Kyle-x, AMIT, UrMom, Britneyfan09, Meloetta Carey, D.D.D. (10); Invisibility (9.5)
Newtsters: poki (3)

 

An iconic cover of an equally iconic anime opening from the 70s for a live-action adaptation of the series. It became her second top 10 entry and one of the signature songs. Many people pointed out that Butterfly is its inferior version, but I think that the GP still didn't consider CH to be entirely hers, so when she released something similar by herself, they finally moved. Oh, and she also starred in that adaptation, queen of acting. The song was so good that it was featured on both feel my mind's re-issue and Secret, but for convenience, I'll consider it a Secret entry.

 

Curaga: "So fun, but I'm bumpin' this down because it's a cover of an old TV series theme + I hate the distorted dialogue samples in the bridge."
Kyle-x: "HELLO? It took her career off of life support and we will always be grateful. The b-side "Into your heart" is a cutesy uptempo track worth a listen as well."
getinthezone: "a classic obv"
AMIT: "legendary cover"
Graves: "After feel my mind flopped they said, "Get her back in the studio STAT. We need another soundtrack song." & it worked, bop."

It's funny that Butterfly also has her getting up close and personal with a man on the single cover too, they really were like ctrl+c->ctrl+v :rip:

8. FREAKY

QcunUOJ.png

8.26

 

misonos: Kyle-x, AMIT, Suilen, Galaxy (10); romiskes (9.5)
Newtsters: Graves (5); Meloetta Carey (5.9)

 

This one is for us freaky *******, yas. The music video is again inspired by AMIT's culture, maybe she should come to Brazil one of these days? Also, girls is too good to be a b-side, but it has plenty of plays on Spotify (much more than some album tracks), so it's not exactly unknown.

 

Curaga: "Serrrrrrrving in the video! :jonnycat: Starts off sooo strong, but it doesn't really go anywhere from there nn. Needed more dynamics to be a solid 10 for me."
Kyle-x: "She did this for the freak nasty *******. All of remixes and b-sides on this single eat btw."
AMIT: "a ******* banger!"
Graves: "I feel like I should enjoy this more, but also she's done better rock bops than this already."
Invisibility: "She did this for the kinky ladies."

The remixes were only on the first press editions of the single I believe, and replaced with instrumentals on the regular editions for some reason :rip:  It's called FREAKY feat. Peter Rap (Surtek Collective's Action Remix)

The way you know litchrally every remix and B-side :deadbanana2:

I thought I was a music nerd, but I don't think there's an artist I have that knowledge for. You're inspiring me a little!
