[Review] HKT48 - 3rd Single 桜、みんなで食べた / Sakura, Minnade tabeta

HKT48's third single is out! (I started this post 4 months ago hehe) I quite like this release, but the covers don't do the songs justice. The theme is graduation, as it usually is around this time of year. I'm still bummed that Sakura didn't get some special position or even a bonus video. But oh well. Sales are consistently the same in which I'm not sure whether to be worried about or not because HKT don't seem to be improving in popularity, especially in Fukuoka.

[Preview] HKT48 - 3rd Single 桜、みんなで食べた / Sakura, Minnade tabeta Covers + Tracklist

Title:  桜、みんなで食べた / Sakura, Minnade tabeta / We ate sakura together
Artist: HKT48
Release Date: 2014.03.12
HKT48's third single's covers and tracklist is finally up! There will be 4 editions as the norm: Type A, B,C and Theatre. Looking at the handshake statisitcs, I am honestly worried that this single won't be successful and will be the downturn of HKT (in terms of sales). The song, I'm happy to say, is much better than I thought. Just goes to show, don't judge a song by its 10 second preview
