well, we are talking about Johnny's, boyband factory of Japan.
but i see where you're getting at Kaori.
that's probably the reason why i haven't really been in the NEWS fandom as well. they just never stuck out to me like their fellow JE comrades because they really follow that regular boyband routine. even their most experimental songs don't have the edge that other JE groups have, IMO.
anyway, i think an album is due. weeeek, Taiyou no Namida, & SUMMER TIME should be enough single tracks for one.
