Not yet 3rd Single [Perapera Perao] Tracklist and Covers



The tracklist and cover for Type A of Not yet's 3rd single, Perapera Perao, has been revealed.

The Type A cover features all four girls in their waitress costumes from the music video, and they pose around a life-size tea cup, saucer and stirrer. While Oshima Yuko holds a giant block of sugar and Yokoyama Yui holds the huge stirrer, it puzzles me that Kitahara Rie is holding a normally sized jug of milk. It's a little weird, to be frank. Even worse, it seems they could not find anything for Sashihara Rino to hold, so she's just lying on the saucer...is she supposed to be an ant? Well, it makes for a cute cover despite these oddities.

The rest of the covers have not been revealed, which is rather weird. I suppose they are still finalizing them.

The tracklist for all three types of the single will contain the usual-idol-fare title track Perapera Perao, as well as the cool, dark coupling song Uminari yo. The tracklist also includes a second coupling song different across the types. Type A has Moto Kare ga Kekkon Suru Toki, Type B with Fuusha ga Mieru Machi, and Type C with Mikata. I'm almost sure Mikata and Fuusha ga Mieru Machi will be ballads, while Moto Kare ga Kekkon Suru Toki is either fun and silly, or really sad.

I'm most looking forward to Fuusha ga Mieru Machi from the title because it sounds like it could be a potentially beautiful ballad with chimes or piano. And I want Uminari yo because the preview is already floating around on the Internet and I love it.

Check out the tracklist table below for a clearer list and the English meanings of these titles.
