1. Who are your favourite Morning Musume members?

Well, I only know one group member out of the MM group and that's Ai Kago. Didn't she leave though? Oh well.... the only reason I know her is cause she's the one that did the pretend date with Gackt and I thought she was cute and funny.

4. What are your favourite Morning Musume songs?
Sou da!...We're Alive. It's annoying song but it's so damn catchy I can't help but to like it. It's like I was brainwashed by that song.

I don't know to much about MM cause there's so many of them to keep up with and people seem to always leave/join the group. Plus I don't know anything about all the other little offspring groups of MM.

[StarCrap]

I listend to their songs...not my tast. It's like how many in the group? 10? O_o

If I'm not mistaken there are 6 "generations" of morning musume with something like 1-5 people in each generation.. I think the total number of members would amount to something crazy like 20, but only those 12(I'm just taking your word for that ) active (soon to be 11 then?). The rest have "graduated".

Kaori (the one you mentioned and the only one still left from the first generation) is mad fit...
I guess Mari Yaguchi (yeah, had to look that up) is taking over as senior now? she's ok.. I liked her in mini moni... cuteness.

Oh yeah, minimoni is the favourite group before they went "sexy"... yeah... they failed pretty bad on that one... I just love cheering with 5 and 6 year olds..

.. Rika ishikawa is purdy too...

I can't tell who's who when they're singing, so I just rate them by their looks.

[Apollo]

I think my favourite is Kaori Iida (she is the prettiest).
My favourite song? Hmm....let me think. I think it would be their whole album: "First Time".... It has a feel-good thing about it!!

I am not a huge fan I must admit, I just know the names of some of them...and I know the members have come and gone, making it difficult to remember to all of the names...

[Mikitty]

Ah yes, First Time IS a good album, probably the classiest, oh and BTW RinniGal, Miyabi is from Berryz Koubou, not from Morning Musume, and the new song is called 'Namida ga Tomarenai Houkago' and the train one you are referring too is the last single 'Joshi Kashimashi Monogatari'
and yes there are Generations, heres how they pan out.

Hmm, so is Ai Kago going solo or is she just leaving the group?

[Mikitty]

Ai Kago has already left the group, but Ai Kago and Nozomi Tsuji have their own group called W now, that have cover and original songs like 'Koi no Vacance' 'Aa Ii Na!' 'Robo Kiss' 'Sexy Snow' etc ^__^
