SCANDAL (Band Jepang)

Ada gak band cewek jepang yang keren? banyak, Scandal salah satunya, dan mereka seumuran gue…ya mereka lebih tua se dikit 1-3 tahun hahah…. Siapa scandal? namanya agak unik juga se, kenapa? karena kalo search di google (atau bing. atau yang lain) hasilnya akan ambigu makannya biasanya ditambahi jadi “Scandal band”, apalagi kalo diliat orang yang ndak tau, karena menjurus (jurus…? bukan plak..ach peluk haruna hiks..). Lagi – lagi karena soundtrack, awal tahu lagunya dari anime Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood,, scandal juga ngisi soundtracknya Bleach 2x. Lagunya keren + ceweknya cantik = ~~download~~ beli mp3 & Pv nya. Hmm gak banyak cerita, langsung aja liat profilenya.

Kalo album yang paling tak suka “Hello World” dan “Queens are thrums”. Ada beberapa lagu yang nyayi Mami sendirian judulnya “Koe” dan “Hon wo yomu” kalian harus denger keren banget lagu yang itu. Rina juga nyanyi sendirian di lagu “Oyasumi” yang awalnya tak pikir yang nyayi Tomomi habisnya suaranya kayak tomomi dalam kondisi normal, hehe maksudnya Tomomi kan suaranya kayak kaleng krupuk, bukan njelekin cuma aku bingung deskripsikannya, ya suaranya unik kayak anak kecil gitu si Tomo-chan.

Dulu scandal tema-nya anak sekolahan, sering pake seifuku karena aku pikir ketika debut dipasaran tahun 2008 wajar. Tahun segitu kan baru lulus SMA, lagian mereka kan punya band jauh sebelum itu, pas SMA. Terus lama – lama lebih keliatan dewasa tema-nya lebih mirip girl band modern yah dari remaja terus dewasa kan, kalian bisa liat di video “Space Ranger” yang masih gemuk, wajahnya bulet – bulet, terus video “Awanai Tsumori no, Genki de ne” yang udah kurusan, wajah tirus dan tambah cantik.

Ada lagunya Scandal yang jadi iklannya Pocari Sweat judulnya Beauteen, mungkin stand for “beautiful teen”. Yah video beauteen kayak band atau girl band lain yang jadi iklannya Pocari sweat warna putih biru gitu..haha..gimana njelasinnya. Kalo lagu dari albumnya sendiri udah hampir 100 lagu totalnya setelah album terakhir Yellow, aku punya top rating dari Scandal, misal yang paling tak suka Image, Hon wo Yomu (本を読む), Winter story, Welcome home, Taiyou to Kimi ga Egaku STORY, One Piece, Yoake no Ryuuseigun (夜明けの流星群), Kan Biiru (缶ビール), Place of life, Bitter Chocolate, Bright, Chiisana Honou (ちいさなほのお) dan banyak lagi yang lain.
