Around the internet, people have been calling Matsuura Aya a granny because of her lacy outfit and matronly hair bun. I have to disagree. She looks like one of those twenty year olds they get to play middle-aged women in those Olay old woman skin cream commercials. (1, 2) You know those ones who look way too old to be twenty but way too young to be fourty? Yup.
Anyways, the Kizuna music video aired today. It’s boring and looks like one of those made-for-the-Pucchi-Best-DVD music videos (see: Maeda Yuki and/or Nakazawa Yuko.) Come on Tsunku, let’s get this Matsuura stuff together. I’m surprised she hasn’t left a la Goto Maki yet. Not that I want her to, but this doesn’t really seem like a quality release.
The single will be released on May 21 and the Single V will hit stores on June 4.

The song isnt as bad as I thought it was, but it’s still really mediocre.
I’m hopefully gonna see her live in July and I just hope her tour isn’t going to be as bland as her singles.

OMG I tought of the same thing when I saw the single cover. She would be perfect for those Oil of Olay cm. Thanks fo the reference links, lol

It’s true. In words of Simon Cowell, it’s a “forgettable” song.
