ATARASHII GAKKO! -"Forever Sisters" (LIVE DEBUT) (Unreleased) & "CANDY" @ Coachella 4/14/2024 

I've always thought that.

And then sometimes you get (During Saisyu Jinrui) “More 👹 clap more hand 👹👅🦅🦅🦅🦅”

I have watched many of their videos multiple times! I have followed every single one of them in every single video. Their choreography for each song is honed almost to perfection! And yet they easily adapt the basic dance to any size stage and any environment on it. Each of the girls is exactly where she should be and doing exactly what she should be doing at any given moment! Well, of course, there are little moments of improvisation in every show, as long as it doesn't disrupt their overall script. They are high professionals! 👌

They make it look so effortless but I think it feels very "them" because they make their own choreo.

They rehearse, rehearse, rehearse until it is locked to perfection! They are devoted to their art!

This is the label of Atarashii Gakko that brought us Joji or as some of you know as the Pink Guy.

(talking about Forever Sisters)

FR! this performance feels magical

I grew up in the 60's and 70's, there's never been a group as unique as Atarashii Gakko. They're Fantastico!

I half wonder if that's part of why I find them so appealing. I've enjoyed a fair bit of Japanese pop since the mid-90's, at least when I could find lyrics, but its like they've cherry-picked the best elements of J-pop from the past 40 years. I suspect that's Money Mark at work.

Hopefully, it'll be officially out next month

Well said! Thanks for watching

I haven't seen the stream footage, so I can't comment, but I'm glad I can help by providing you my perspective of the show. Thanks!

I add my thanks for your video. I agree that the producer/ director needs help in showing the AG performance. I’ve always thought the best way to show on screen is with a split screen. One side shows Suzuka and her amazing vocals and the other shows Mizyu, Rin and Kanon doing their dance and vocals.

​​@@asian.pop.footagethe Coachella live stream, they were great, the camera choices,and editing was terrible. Your one camera is better. All four of A.G need to be seen at once for their performance to shine.

⁠A great example of this are the two Seishun Wo Kirisaku Hado choreography videos shot in Tottori, both by the same director. The MV is excellent and fun, with creative cuts and sly homages to the Beastie Boys’ “So What’Cha Want” video. The choreography video of the same song, released a week later, which is just them in one single shot with a gently floating steady-cam in an empty shopping arcade, has more than 2x as many views, now approaching 10 million.

I love AG❤❤❤

I've seen very little in English regarding who they work with in that regard, but I had wondered.

@@Racistobama They are mostly dancers and singers so almost all their music is written by various songs writers. They help with some of the lyrics apparently. I think it's a great idea because it allows their stuff to always be new and fresh with so many people creating things.

@@coolbrotherf127 Thanks for the reply to *yet another* of my deleted posts, LOL. Would love to know why they keep doing this to me.

Hearing it live felt like i was teleported a 70s disco in japan it was amazing

Seeing them visually perform this, still gives me chills! The song has got that cool haunting vibe to it like the Pineapple Kryptonite chorus

I'm glad you like it. Thank you for the comment. I appreciate it!

@@asian.pop.footage that’s my pleasure!

はい。ベイビーメタルですよね?

@@asian.pop.footage そのとおりです すばらしいです

私も大好きです

It is! We should be hearing the official version next month when their new album drops.

Yes! I like their melodic songs.

@@asian.pop.footage ありがとうございます。4曲目聴けました!

Love it!

Yes! It's so good! This new album is going to be great!

Awesome! I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed this one!

I always thought they’re school uniforms lol

You are correct!

@@Bunny11344 That is no contradiction. The style was a sailor's uniform/dress to start with, but became popular for children somewhere around or rather before 1900. Using this popular children's dress as a school uniform has a certain logic and was apparently not so unusual in Japan some decades ago.

i'm not sure what you mean by "mature".. but you should check out their song before joining 8irising. their songs are not all goofy song. like "okami no uta" for example.

They are really good with their stage presence! I mean really good!

I mean their whole group name is about school so i don’t think they will be getting out of their uniforms anytime soon

Good way of looking at it.

their group name means "leaders of new school". so they have to change their name if they want to change concept. but dont worry event at their 30s, asians usually will still looks ok with highschool uniform. people wont notice that they are adult. lol

I figured I wasn't the only one who saw it. The signs are all there: the greatly increased self-promotion worked into the act, the renewed focus on singing, more timeless lyrics, the steadily evolving costumes. "Forever Sisters" is probably the shape of things to come as the group matures and becomes necessarily a bit less rambunctious. And it's all being very carefully produced. I honestly expect Money Mark to start working hard at improving their English. This is one of only a handful of Japanese acts that has true global potential, partly because they push boundaries but also due to pure talent.

😂

Money Mark is producer. They mention him just before the lyrics begin

Officially, Coachella prohibits lip synching, but apparently permits backing tracks, because AG's whole act is to sing to instrumental backing. So I guess that chorus intro at 1:49 was part of the backing track. At 3:09, the same chorus intro wasn't lip synced to either, so it wasn't a mistake in either instance.

@@user-hk4wy5pl6n well, that would be one way to explain it. But ya gotta admit, having vocals coming out of the speakers when no one from a vocal group is visibly singing, is a bit incongruous at best

@@user-hk4wy5pl6n I am not sure that is any of the group's voices. It could just be a sample from another song.

@BlahBlah_13 Good point

@jim2lane I agree that it’s disconcerting to hear vocals when no one’s singing. But you were implying a mistake or lip-synching in your earlier comment.

🤔
