First Live Budoukan concert Spring 2000

Track 1. Behind-the-scenes views of Morning Musume before a concert.

Track 2. Happy Summer Wedding, which is one of my absolute favorite songs, a really happy, energetic song with the entire group performing their dances with major enthusiasm.

Track 3. Koi No Dance Site ("Loves Dance Site") is also another song I like performed with even more energy than the first song.

Track 4. Aisha Loan De is yet another song that I really like.

Track 5. Basically the girls introducing themselves.

Track 6. Manatsu no Kosen ("A Ray of Light in Midsummer") . This next track starts off totally a capella with the harmony of the voices being absolutely wonderful. It then goes into regular singing with music.

Track 7. Omoide. This is a more laid back, romantic-sounding song. A lot of individualized singing with some harmony mixed in. Overall a nice song.

Track 8: Dance Suru no da is a slightly faster paced song with a lot of dancing. Good song.

Track 9. Hokkaido Shalala [Country Musume] a fairly good song. .

Track 10. Kokunhaku Kinenbi [Melon Kinenbi] has four of the girls in extremely cute outfits doing a slightly faster paced song.

Track 11: Sutenaide yo [Nakazawa Yuko] This track is a solo appearance, showing a good solo voice.

Track 12: Tanpopo [Tanpopo} has two of the girls appearing together. In my own opinion neither of them have good solo voices, and even their harmony doesn't sound quite right.

Track 13: Chokotto Love [("A Little Bit of Love") Petit Moni]. This is one of my favorite Morning Musume-related songs.

Track 14. Hanjuku 6:00 Shuugou. The girls are in pink dresses. Another high-energy song.

Track 15. Mirai No Tobira ("Door to the Future") . Another number with the girls in pink dresses. An all-right, but not fantastic song, in my opinion.

Track 16. Daite Hold On Me ("Hold Me, Hold on Me") , a really good song.

Track 17. Love Machine. This is another one of my favorite songs.

Track 18 is another track where the members of Morning Musume talk.

Track 19 is one of my absolute favorite Morning Musume songs, Morning Coffee. I think this song features some of the best vocalizing by the group of any of their songs.

Track 20 Summer Night Town, another really good song.

Track 21. DaDiDuDeDoDaDi!". "DaDiDuDeDoDaDi!" is another nice song, slightly slower-paced but not much. It's a very beautiful song. It's also interesting in that one of the girls ended up crying during part of the song and was visibly upset.

This then begins the credits section.

One of the girls (I think Sayaka Ichii) left the group after this concert, which would explain why the one girl got so emotional in track 21.

The last track is another visual version of track 17, but with the entire song focusing on the girl leaving the group, the camera centering on her during the entire song.. The song is then repeated, focusing on a different girl.
