Girl group FAKY released a new music video with the title GIRLS GOTTA LIVE, part of the dance song trilogy based on the theme GIRLS POWER.

The video is filled with bright neon-like colours, where the girls are popping off the screen thanks to their bright pink clothing while dancing in front of a blue and green background.

The danceable pop song with a twist of 90s R&B does start like a Saturday afternoon, when you are preparing for a fun night out (with friends). After 50 minutes the tempo goes up with a catchy refrain. Meanwhile, all the members of FAKY are showing off their confidence through their dance moves, energetic and sexy. After listening to GIRLS GOTTA LIVE you are completely pumped up and ready to make it a beautiful day or evening. The song should give a smile on the face.

The song GIRLS GOTTA LIVE is a combination of Japanese and English and is co-written by FAKY group members Akina & Lil’ Fang, Noonie Bao, Thomas Troelsen and Adam Pallin. Noonie Bao has written songs for Katie Perry, Avicii and David Guetta, to name a few. Thomas Troelsen has produced songs for Justin Bieber, Afrojack and SHINee and Adam Pallin is most notable as being the producer and half of the pop duo Little Jackie. It immediately indicates the song feels polished. With the addition of the music video, it feels like a complete package, with aesthetically pleasing imagery.

Since the group formed in 2013, their YouTube videos have reached over 7 million views from fans in over 120 countries. The members of FAKY are from diverse backgrounds but have come together in Tokyo to make not just Japanese Pop music, but a broad musicality combined with a mainstream sound. Five personalities giving you alternative girl pop from Tokyo.

With the release of GIRLS GOTTA LIVE, it is a new start of FAKY after the departure of Anna last December. In the video, you get introduced two members, namely Hina and Taki.

Colourful artistic cover of TsuShiMaMiRe 20th full-length album バンドは水物 (MIZUMONO), featuring the three members at that time, vocalist and guitarist Mari, bass player Yayoi and drummer Maiko. There are masks drawn on their faces and on top of it the band name and album title in a font that seems like splashes of water.
