This dance cover that was deleted from my youtube channel. pika^3 requested a reupload, but I don't have the file anymore. Therefore I re-edited the video like it was supposed to look like! Original description from November 26th 2014:
Disclaimer: I do not own the music or the choreography ! Both belong to Hello!Project / UP-Front Promotion.
This time I have two dance covers in one! It's my small tribute to Morning Musume's Leader Michishige Sayumi who graduated on November 26th. I covered her solo song „Shabadabadoo~“ and the farewell song „Mikaeri Bijin“ sung from the other members of the group for her. Since both dances are quite simple and the songs seem to belong together anyway, I put them in one video. I planned to do this cover a while ago, but suddenly I realised there was only about a week left until Sayumi graduated, so I learned both dances in one evening xD
Shabadabadoo~ is a extremely cute song and I really enjoy dancing to it! Even though I can't match Sayu's cuteness at all xD I tried to do a lot of expressions even though I didn't have much time to practice. I simply think they're a big part of the dance to make it enjoyable. The heels make the dance definitely more challenging, since I'm not used wearing them at all. Fun fact: the shoes are the ones I wore for my graduation prom, so they're really fitting^^ The skirt is part of the outfit I wore for my very first dance cover I published, which is also Sayu's first Single as leader by chance.
The dance of Mikaeri Bijin is nice, leaves a lot of room for expressions. I still wish there was some kind of proper choreography for the verses, but what can you do with a ballad... I worried about not being in sync with myself as usual since this is a slow dance, which make mistakes more visible. I admit that I look quite stiff in this. I'll try to do better with my next slow dance...
I hope you guys enjoy! I wish Sayumi all the best from now on, too! Congrats on your Graduation, Sayu!
P.S.: I love how it turned out and thank Finda-chan for the beautiful editing. I know it has been stressful for her, because I really asked her last minute to do this and her laptop wouldn't cooperate^^“
In addition to that I want to apologize to my little brother who looked forward to make soap bubbles for my Shabadabadoo cover, but I had to record this while he was at school ;w; He will probably show up in some of my next covers though!
