Uza (song)


"Uza" is the 28th major single by the Japanese female idol group AKB48, released in Japan on October 31, 2012.

Background

The single was first announced on Yasushi Akimoto's Google+ and the title song premiered live on September 18, 2012, at the AKB48's rock-paper-scissors tournament at Nippon Budokan.
Mayu Watanabe was originally one of the centers, along with Jurina Matsui, however due to heavy choreography involved in this song, Yuko Oshima, a more experienced dancer, later replaced Watanabe's center position.
It was released in four versions: Type-A, Type-K, Type-B, and Theater Edition.
The music video for the title song was directed by Joseph Kahn, the director of the music video for "Gingham Check".
