■Morning Musume '24 member comments
Since we will be appearing on "THE FIRST TAKE" this time, we have created a formation for a one-time live performance.
It was a lot of fun performing with formations and arrangements that can only be seen here. (Maki Maria)
"Renai Revolution 21" is a song that we sing whenever we perform at venues where there may be people who don't know about Morning Musume '24, or at rock festivals, and people who have seen Morning Musume '21 for the first time dance along with us, so it's like a talisman made for us by our predecessors. Even now, we perform to the best of our ability with the feeling that "We are the Morning Musume of today! We are the real thing!" (Oda Sakura)
