Top 20 Morning Musume Songs

OK so I'm trying to compile a list of my favorite H!P songs so I'm going to go group by group and then combine them all at the end. This is Morning Musume's list. You may notice one very specific song* is missing from the list and if it was on the list it would certainly be number 1 but since that's completely obvious I decide to remove it from the running.

20. Seishun Collection
This song is bland but it never fails to make me smile. The MV is very cute and fun too!

19. HELP!!
This one is special, since it's my family's favorite MM song.

18. Shabadaba Doo~
I wasn't sure if I should include solo songs but since Sayu is so special, she gets to be here.

17. Egao no Kimi wa Taiyou sa
I am less fond of this song than when it came out but I still love it.

16. Joshi Kashimashi Monogatari ~'15 ver.~
I love this song. The chorus gets a bit repetitive on multiple listens but the varying of the verses keeps things interesting. I picked this version for Nonaka's verse being in english and Erina's "I AM A PEN!". The nature of this song also means every member get's a good long solo line which is always good.

15. Namida ga Tomaranai Houkago
I don't know... It's catchy and it makes me smile and isn't that all that matters at the end of the day?

14. AS FOR ONE DAY
A very wierd song but I like it a lot.

13. Dokka~n Capriccio
Fun. Exciting. Catchy.

12. One•Two•Three
The song that got me into Morning Musume.

11. Ai no Tane
I really like this song. I wasn't sure whether to put this on the list or morning coffee (I didn't want to put both on since they're so similar). I still don't exactly know why I chose this one, it just came down to gut feeling.

10. ENDLESS SKY
Riho's line at the end... :(
9. THE Manpower!!
Catchy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!One of my fave "golden era" songs.

8. Kimi no Kawari wa Iyashinai
I didn't like this song when it was released but it's grown on me considerably. I especially like Sakura's solo lines.

7. Be Alive
It's pretty. Just so pretty.

6. One and Only
English! I wish there were solo lines but I understand why there isn't (Nonaka could have had a few though...). This song is so catchy! 

5. Roman ~MY DEAR BOY~
I like songs with lyrics that are supposed to comfort someone crying. Just a personal preference.
Don't cry, because it's okay
if fleeting first loves don't come true
Don't cry, that's where it all begins
Ride on! Ride on! Ride on!

4. Oh my wish!
Zukki!!! please don't leave, you're perfect!
3. Aruiteru
One of Morning Musume's catchiest songs. It never fails to make me smile.

2. Toki wo Koe Sora wo Koe
So very pretty... I miss you Sayumi...

1. Ren'ai Revolution 21


This is the mobekimasu's version but it's my favorite version so I decided to share this instead of the MV. There is so much I love about this song. The chou chou chou ii kanji bit. The hoo hoos. The all together nows. It's just so perfect.

*If you haven't figured it out yet, the song is LOVE Machine
