And... The Longest Idol Song Title Belongs to AKB48!


The title for the upcoming 34th single of idol group AKB48 had been announced. The single, coming this December, will feature the winners of the 2013 Janken Tournament, with Jurina Matsui as the center. The song is described as a cheerful idol song that contains a call & response.

The single's title will be “Suzukake no Ki no Michi de 'Kimi no Hohoemi wo Yume ni Miru' to Itteshimattara Bokutachi no Kankei wa Dou Kawatteshimaunoka, Bokunari ni Nannichi ka Kangaeta Ue deno Yaya Kihazukashii Ketsuron no youna Mono” (鈴懸(すずかけ)の木の道で「君の微笑みを夢に見る」と言ってしまったら僕たちの関係はどう変わってしまうのか、僕なりに何日か考えた上でのやや気恥ずかしい結論のようなもの, lit. "Little embarrassing conclusion kind of thing I came up with after several days of consideration how our relationship would change if I tell you 'I see your smile in my dream' on the road of Platanus.")

Producer Yasushi Akimoto explains the song's lengthy title, “That is because I felt 'something I can't describe with one word', when I was making the song while imagining the Janken Senbatsu members. The 'something' could be the glitter of the girls' youth, or their mysteriousness, or maybe the earnestness of the girls running with full effort toward the dream as whole AKB group. I made the title as if I just scrawled those things.

Janken Queen and center Jurina Matsui commented, “I was surprised since it's the longest title ever even in the whole groups, but it would be fun the title becomes a hot topic. I would like to have a talk with the fans about the title at handshake events.

AKB48's 34th single will be available in four different types, for 1600 yen each, and will be released on December 11th. Pre-order now at CDJapan and get an exclusive photo as a bonus!
