We all know by now Stereopony is covering "Again" by YUI.

However Stereopony's Twitter account revealed Shiho will be performing lead vocals and Nohana will provide backing vocals (as will AIMI).

Discuss!!!!!


Here is the discussion:

Yeah, it's strange. How is Aimi well enough to sing in Indonesia, yet not going to be singing lead on this cover when Shiho said she's not interested in doing lead vocals. Shiho must of changed her mind or something, but I would think that Aimi would not be able to do anything musically for the band for quite some time after her surgery, unless she was given a clean bill of health before going to Indonesia. VGDId could probably give us an idea of whether Aimi was going 100% or holding back. If anyone other than Aimi was going to sing, it should be Nohana because from what she said she'd do it in a heartbeat if they asked her.

If Shiho doesn't want to sing, that's her choice. As I said in the news thread, I'm waiting for the girls to say something about Shiho's debut as a lead singer.
If you don't know Destonus, AIMI didn't sing lead vocals for the entire concert in Indonesia. SHIHO sang lead vocals for both "fuzz" and "Viva La Viva La" at both Inazuma Rock Festival and AFA Indonesia 2012. If you watch the Inazuma video, you can clearly tell that AIMI is still not at 100% yet. You've watched them live before, so you should pick up the difference very quickly.

I don't want to sound mean but SHIHO is a better singer than NOHANA in my honest opinion haha. Plus, if NOHANA did lead vocals, then there wouldn't be anyone dancing. I doubt AIMI can pull off the same moves NOHANA can. But if she could... the stage presence would just look really weird to me... haha.

cant say much since it was my 1st live but aimi didnt seem to struggle with singing...she even moved and danced alot because mao was covering her. so as a 1st impression i would say aimi was 100% top form and didnt hold back during afaid. i guess they let shiho sang just to keep the pressure off a little for aimi since she just went through surgery. i also agree if nohana were to sing if would affect her dancing which would be mao-less ekekeke. i've been waiting for shiho and nohana to do leads for a long time and i hope this will be the start. nohana could do slow song that doesnt require alot less dancing. shiho would be perfect for rock songs after seeing her performance in afaid, she was superb bashing her drums while singing :D

I'm with amat on that Aimi wasn't holding back when she WAS singing, but do agree with you RS that she probably isn't fully recovered from her surgery yet and thus needed Shiho to sing a little even though she said she wouldn't want to. She could have meant she prefers to be behind her drums and not front and center like Aimi and no need for her to do so since Aimi normally does the whole set. But there are extenuating circumstances here, so Shiho's taking one for the team.

As for doing this all the time, shared vocals to me have always been SCANDAL's thing, and what separates them from other bands in their genre. I suppose it could be something Stereopony does at lives and such to put the spotlight on Nohana or Shiho temporarily, but not something I'd want them doing on albums or on a regular basis.

As for letting Nohana sing, Nagereboshi or Amaryllis would be great for the "more singing, less dancing" thing that Amat is going for.
