An Original Song for JKT48?
It’s been a long time since we long for JKT48 original song and it’s only a few weeks after most of the local fans gave up thinking about any original song for JKT48. But keeps your hopes up fans, as Twitter user @AIKOsan_1991 asked in 755, a social network that works like ask.fm:
AIKOsan_1991: Would making a JKT48 original song difficult…?
Yasushi Akimoto: I’m trying to make one.
This questions has been asked many many times by Japanese fans but never got any replies from the man himself up until now. He finally replied which is a good thing.
As what Wotaliano said:
Yasushi Akimoto’s words sometimes doesn’t come thru, but for JKT to be acknowledged and an original song being considered is a big step forward. It means we can hope for the future. The girls might receive a present to be proud of, and we can be prouder as fans too,no?
So there you go! Keep your hopes up even if it will take years for it to come into fruition.
A blog commentary from AIKOsan_1991 (in Japanese)
amien.
if it comes true, I couldn’t be happier .. Yeeaah…
can i make it for them…Aki-p san
btw i think Kokoro no placard was made for JKT not for AKB…
That’s your personal opinion (delusion), and you’re entitled to it.
FYI, even though AKB and JKT released KFC/Kokopla on the same day, but please note that AKB had already performed their version of KFC/Kokopla (on air/off air) before AKS even informed JOT about KFC/Kokopla joint release plan. JKT themselves only debuted KFC/Kokopla on the release day of the single.
Seriously, i think you don’t get what i mean…seriously
I agree with you,,
and i know what you mean..
yeah, i know what you mean.. the music, the rhythm of Kokopla is quite similar to dangdut music and IMHO much suitable to be sung by JKT, not AKB.
All of 48G songs which are quite similar to dangdut music was made for JKT and not for their sister groups. Please don’t argue with this absolute fact.
@fuzzb
I’m sorry, I made a mistake. I should have replied to Guardian.
we can wait until HS event next month.. there is always a surprises in HS event and maybe this one
:
well keep your hope up high .. . but put your expectation low
hopefully next year Jkt48 will get an original song .. . Amen
The man said he is trying to make one, not already make one..
naah…i’ll keep my expectation low
although i really want jkt to have an original single…but…you know…i just feel that aki-p already have too much on his hand for now
anyway, recently i watch snh concert on youtube, and they remixed some of their songs. why don’t jkt do it too, just keep it fresh and what not
I don’t understand why he needs to be the one to make it. From what I understand, he isn’t actually responsible for composition or arrangement, he only writes the lyrics, which he wouldn’t even be able to do in Indonesian. Why can’t they use a local music producer in Indonesia to write a JKT song and simply have it checked by the man himself before release? He really is making it more difficult than it needs to be.
Hi, I just want to notify you that JKT48 will release one more single for this year and it will be released around late November/early December, so that will make it as JKT48 8th single overall (2014 4th single). I’m sorry for breaking your heart but it will be another AKB songs. Let’s hope for JKT original song next year, okay.
