AKB48 8th single = Romance, Irane!

ロマンス、イラネ！ (Romance, Irane!) release date 2008.01.23

aaaah I hope it´s a bit faster then Yuuhi

Cool! The single is avaible in three versions (like Yuuhi) one limi with dvd... other limi and norm edi

AHHH!!! YAY! i can't wait, thanks for the news Rijio!

I was just browsing on wiki when I found the news I was surprised, but still happy.

Btw, I find the title a bit strange...
(still hoping to their coming-back on unhappy songs btw)

Yes! I hope the same... But we only can wait... and pray for a sad song *lol*

(and please no more Mayu from Team B, I don't like her face )
And more Manami

well i guess anythings fine as long as they go back to sad songs

I don't know why but the title inspires me a song like Boku no Taiyou or something

But we'll see, I can't wait to hear more news

I just have the cdjapan links :
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=DFCL-1433

I know, that the title means "I don´t need romance" so maybe it´s a sad song... ;_;

I was wondering about what the "irane", but now I've understood.
I think the correct translation is "Romance, Iranee", iranee being the spoken form of iranai.

Spoiler:

I don't know if it's gonna be sad or not, like it could be a happy song like "I don't need a man" by PCD

I'm pretty sure it's gona be like the 3 last release, but hope a sad song tho.

Btw, according to the link, it'll have 3 version? DVD, Limited Edition & Type A?
I wonder what is exactly the Tpe A...

It only means that there are two different limited CDs one with dvd one with other remixes or so...

Oh remixes! I like that (perhaps another Himawari stuff?)

Maybe... I don´t know You have to wait!

Ooo yeah i love extra tracks i realy realy want another sadish song T-T

I wonder if with these covers, it'll be sad

well i guess not but at least the outfits looks cute/niceish

and is that Watanabe Mayu? is she gonna be in this one again. i'm actually starting to like her more now

The cover is cute, but it looks like a pic from a TV show. But the disco ball is awesome, I like disco balls
Yep Mayu is in. I still don't like her tho

Oh and the last pic is a bit bizarre there's the photographer on it

those are realy the covers?
they seem kinda cheep

are they experimenting with the covers like for the album too

(example)

I think it is. It looks somehow like a prom ball or something...
Experimenting...Yeah...The album cover's so cheap...
But perhaps all the money goes in the girls' gowns

Well... I don´t like the cover... from the single and the cd!
Here are the lyrics...
Ah　女の子は見つめ合うだけで
So　ドキドキする魔法にかかるの
Love　それが恋と思い込めるのは
お馬鹿ですか？　
それとも純粋すぎますか？

ハートまで金縛り遭ったように
切なくて動けない
なぜ？　されるがままなの？

そんなロマンス、イラネ
目を覚ますのよ
キスなんて　ハヤイ
あせることはないわ
そんなロマンス、イラネ
NO！と言わなきゃ！
ホントの愛しさに　
出会うまでは　ダウト！
心で何度もつぶやく勇気とは・・・
イラネ！

Ah　親友さえ裏切れるくらい
Sad　もう何も見えなくなってる
Cry　好きになると人が変わるのは
普通ですか？
それとも私だけですか？

偶然は　思うより少なくて
恋に似て非なるもの
なぜ？　わかっているのに・・・

そんなあなたは　イラネ
魔法を解いて！
成就なんて　シナイ
夢を見てただけよ
そんなあなたは　イラネ
流されないで
ホントの感情を
もっと思い出すわ
一人の寂しさを埋めてるだけだった
イラネ！

そんな
そんなロマンス、イラネ
目を覚ますのよ
キスなんて　ハヤイ
あせることはないわ
そんなロマンス、イラネ
NO！と言わなきゃ！
ホントの愛しさに　
出会うまでは　ダウト！
心で何度もつぶやく勇気とは・・・
イラネ！

イラネ！

イラネ！

I don´t found english ones!

And girls on the cover
Yuko / Mariko / Tomochin / Yukari / Maimai / Mayu / Haruna / Miichan / Erena / Sae / Yuka??? / Acchan / Sayaka / Kasai / Hana?!, but then again it looks a LOT like Natsuki / Takamina

Thanks a lot!
