スーパーモンキーズ 恋のキュートビート/ ミスターU.S.A.

Recently Denadel had asked if I could upload the karaoke versions of "Koi no cute beat" and "Mr.U.S.A.", two songs that I didn't include in my recent Amuro Namie post. This single is out of print and both tracks are really cute J-Pop songs and they offer a great look into what the producers heard in Amurochan's voice when they signed her group the Super Monkeys. It's amazing that even at this young age you can really hear the strong projection in her voice, a voice that would eventually lead her to the top of the J-Pop world!

"Koi no cute beat" has a bit of a dated sound as it may remind you of 80's pop even though it was released in '92 and it's really a very catchy pop song with that bubblegum aura to it. Hahah I love this song no matter what and I'm just trying to prepare you for it! Although "Koi no cute beat" is the a-side I've always loved the coupling with song "Mr.U.S.A" a bit more. Instead of an 80's touch this song is much more representative of the time it was released and you have to really love Amurochan's unique pronunciation of the lyrics and especially when she sings the English parts! :) Time certainly hasn't diminished how much I'm endeared to this song as I still find it as cute as the first day I heard it. Ah so if you're a Amurochan fan who hasn't heard these songs before or just someone curious to hear what her earliest release sounded like then please have a listen as I've included the downloads for both songs and their karaoke versions below. Denadel sorry that it took so long for me to get these karaoke versions up! Enjoy! :)
