This week's musical treats came from AKB48's latest DVD release, the Kouhaku Uta Gassen 2012, basically a singing competition amongst the AKB girls where they are split in to Red and White teams, just like the annual new years countdown show of the same name in Japan.

This song is Oogoe Diamond and it's performed acapella style by some of the group's best singers. Masuda Yuka and Akimoto Sayaka are in the lead followed by Kasai Tomomi and Sato Amina singing the bridge towards the end. they were accompanied by Umeda Ayaka, Kuramochi Asuka and Nakamura Mariko with Oya Shizuka beatboxing.

It's a great arrangement right? Who said all idols can't sing?

Here's the original if you are still interested. :)
