The song is in HSJ's style, so it's not bad. Yamada and Chinen are both good singers out of HSJ. I have no idea about Nakayama's skills, but clearly the entire setup is just to promote him. He debuted at the same time in another group, called "Nakayama Yuma w/ B.I.Shadow", which pretty much translates to "Nakayama Yuma and some other guys we don't care about", as well as being in a pathetic drama at the same time (think the Japanese version of Twilight, but with an added teacher-student bent).
Therefore at his debut, he nagged a number of "firsts": the first person to debut in two groups at the same time, the first group to feature a person's name in its name, the youngest group to debut even though he's the oldest one in that group (i.e. they threw a bunch of kids in B.I.Shadow to drag the average age lower than Hey!Say!JUMP). Not to mention HSJ was pushed underground to make way, and completely unrelated HSJ members had to sing his songs on programs??
Even if his music is good, the way this is done really disgusts me and I can't bring myself to like him or either of his groups, even though Yamada and Chinen are among my favourites from HSJ.
