PROGRAMME NOTES
Written by Jesse Chiu
会いたかった, pronounced as aitakatta means “I wanted
to see you” has its title repeated throughout the song
to express the young girls’ strong emotion of meeting
the ones they like. This meaning later developed to the
gratitude from the AKB members to the audiences and
became one of the AKB signatures which has been used to
introduce the group in various shows.
This single was the very first one the group released with
a major label which marked a new beginning for them.
While this energetic song works very well as the overture of
today’s concert, the band arrangement of it further boosts
the vibe. The parts are well distributed to different parts of
the ensemble and all the calls and responses mimic how
the members take turns to sing with each other.
Without any hesitation, the drums started Heavy Rotation
with powerful cymbal strikes, inviting the whole band
to join the music. The title originally means repeatedly
playing certain songs in broadcast, while this is used in
this song as the lasting love towards the lovers with the
recurring lyrics “I want you! I need you! I love you!” in
the catchy chorus. Under the senbatsu system (selection
based on the election), one of the top members Yuko
Oshima became the centre for the first time in history and
ended the monopoly of Atusko Maeda.
This phenomenal song, released on 18th August, 2010,
made a sales record of 340 thousand at the first day which
topped the leaderboard and the great success led to a
rapid release of the wind band arrangement only two days
after on the 20th.
