Wow! It's like she was channeling Moa in Heart no Hoshi, and did great with My Graduation Toss (and everything else as well). Very underrated member, IMO.
@@jasonph2522 Ooga been leaving the showbiz after graduate, she just recently back in it again in 2020 after opened a public twitter account. That's what I heard
@@gluntdaniel Saki's back in the public eye but I don't think she'll return to showbiz. She seems happy just singing with her university friend and sometimes for us. TBH I think Saki is too good to be backup to Suzuka. Saki is a good enough singer now she could share a stage with Su as an equal -- only Ayami can also say that
Saki is near-Suzuka-level in singing chops - no mean feat. That particular timestamp links to a part she inherited from Su. Alas, she left the industry because Idoldom wasn't for her, but I hope she returns to public view someday, some way, somehow, so we can hear her amazing voice again.
@@kazetheshadow23 Oh I know. I was one of her first followers. Funny thing is I made a comment on someone's Saki O vid back in 2018-ish where I managed to correctly call exactly what she would do -- sing song covers on RU-vid. I didn't expect her to join twitter or bring a friend (Moka) along, but both are welcome!
I always hoped that Ooga Saki would have the opportunity to replace YuiMetal in BABYMETAL. She was a big fan of Nakamoto Suzuka and maybe the offer was there and she decided not to join. Okazaki Momoko does fit so well.
Yea wasnt rinion the student council president at the time? If ya didnt know any better you woulda thought saki was the unquestioned leader of the group.
Ooga definitively grews up from her earlier days. She was seen as the little sister of Moa and Yui, but she definivelly blown me away by her performance after being more advanced in age. Someone know what she is doing now ?
Here's the first video from the Moka & Saki Channel. Moka is on piano, and SakiO is singing. The song is 'Ikite Koso' (Only Living). ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-p3B3bRbndAQ.html
For Heart no Hoshi, Ooga got mostly Yui's solos. Beyond that she got almost all of *_Suzuka's_* solos, which really shows how good her voice was. I'm sure she got some of Moa's too.
Yeah she got all of Suzuka's parts. Ooga ended up having a pretty strong voice, much like Su. Shame she didn't end up continuing in the idol industry and put that voice to better use.
It _is_ a shame, but Saki could be like Su -- too talented to be an Idol. Besides, she's still over a year from graduating high school. Who knows what she'll do over the next few years. She said herself she'll never stop singing. She could easily go for a music degree and try a serious career. Saki may be the only girl on the planet good enough to be Su's understudy _and_ have even a remote possibility of acceptance, as she worked directly with Su and was part of the "Who Loves Su Most" hugbox (the others were Moa, Mariri, and Nene). Su is irreplaceable, of course, but I'm just sayin'.
You won't find it I'm affraid, I tried to look for it but its it's nowhere to be found. I have no idea what is the name of the song, all I know it was their graduation song, absolutely stellar performance. I've watched it many times on Dailymotion while it was available back then and trust me, those three girls, and especially Baby-chan, absolutely nailed it, they were simply stunning.
Thank you! It's an amazing song! I finally found a studio recording on a Russian music/radio website. I can't find a video, but the studio version was really pretty too.
