>>78316971At the end of the day, quality matters. Like a bad translation and localization job, even the best Japanese music will fall flat to EOPs' ears. Staying within the same company, although Nerissa's Love Me Love Me Love Me takes liberties with the lyrics, we end up with a quality cover highlighting the singer's talents. Obviously it needs to be done properly, you don't want to end up with a Kiara/Reine Animal cover either.
What we're seeing here with these mediocre group covers is akin lazy copy paste jobs with the "in English!!" sticker hastily plastered on top. For an idol company that isn't shy about spending money, Cover needs better connections in the music industry, particularly those better acclimated with Western musical preferences.
