April 3rd (Fri) Digital Release "Kyunde LOVE Suru Ouenka" Song Information

This is a hyper-energetic support song with exceptional addictiveness, symbolizing the "Cheer Up" slogan advocated by "α+." From the intro, the energetic calls of "L・O・V・E!" and "K・Y・U・N!" instantly bring the venue's excitement to its peak. The lyrics depict a comical scene of misunderstanding the club activities of someone they're interested in, leading to a coming-of-age story where they awaken to the joy of cheering someone on as part of the "cheer club." Powerful phrases like "Sweat and tears are medals" and "A complete turnaround" give courage to everyone pursuing love and dreams to take a step forward. Musically, the song is colored with full-hearted cheers delivered through diaphragmatic breathing and call-and-response sections that promise a sense of unity during live performances. It is an "α+" style, winning positive tune that turns everyone who listens into an 'ally' (mikata).

Our 4th single, "Kyunde LOVE Suru Ouenka," is a song that truly embodies "Cheer Up," the slogan of "α+." The lyrics have a touch of comedy, making them fun, and create a bright worldview that naturally energizes us. There are many points where we can all get excited together, so we hope you'll enjoy it at our live performances too. We would be happy if this song could cheer up many people's daily lives.

(Choreographer) Ran-sensei Comment "Kyunde LOVE Suru Ouenka" is packed with various styles inspired by the title's "Kyun" (heart-throb), "LOVE," and "Support"! Of course, it embodies Alpha Plus's "running through youth," but this time we've especially incorporated cheer movements (motions) and energetic cheers like a cheering squad, with hearts in various shapes scattered throughout! The chorus further adds hearts to the hand signs (LOVE signs with thumb, index finger, and pinky), embedding LOVE everywhere!! This time, there are many jumps, and the members responded so well, it was truly love! It's fun how the story and musicality change as the song progresses, and the rapidly changing dance and formations are also a highlight! Please burn the image of the cute cheering squad, Alpusu-chan, into your memory!

Let's cheer up everyone's "I want to try!" in the world!

The SNS era in which we live. It is a wonderful era where a single post can make a life go viral. However, everyone only sees and evaluates the "perfected self" on the surface... The "true feelings deep in one's heart" do not get 'likes.' α+ (Alpha Plus) empathizes with everyone's worries and struggles and supports the courage to take a step forward!

"I want to become cute," "I want to aim for that dream," "I want to convey my feelings" Let's cheer up everyone's "I want to try!" in the world!
