ギンガムチェック
AKB48 Lyrics
こんなに君を好きでいるのに
僕は誤魔化してる
自転車を押して歩く君が無邪気に笑う
海岸通り バイト先まで
焦らすね 太陽
ギンガムチェック 君が着てる
半袖シャツ マニッシュだね
愛しくて切なくて 心は格子柄だよ
ギンガムチェック 恋の模様
ブルー ホワイト ブルー どっちだろう?
気持ちを伝えるか 僕の迷いは ギンガムチェック
目の前の海 青一色で
すべて語ってるよ
シンプルな言葉ひとつ
僕は口にできないよ
臆病だから 今の関係も
しあわせってことさ
ギンガムチェック 夏が過ぎて
カーディガンは いつから着る?
この道をどこまでも 歩ける訳じゃないけど
ギンガムチェック 恋の期限
Yes, no, yes スルーでもいい
大事な君だから 次の夏まで ギンガムチェック
海がキラキラと 反射してる
僕のまだらな思いは 光と影
ギンガムチェック 君が着てる
半袖シャツ マニッシュだね
愛しくて切なくて 心は格子柄だよ
ギンガムチェック 恋の模様
ブルー ホワイト ブルー どっちだろう?
気持ちを伝えるか 僕の迷いは ギンガムチェック
僕は誤魔化してる
自転車を押して歩く君が無邪気に笑う
海岸通り バイト先まで
焦らすね 太陽
ギンガムチェック 君が着てる
半袖シャツ マニッシュだね
愛しくて切なくて 心は格子柄だよ
ブルー ホワイト ブルー どっちだろう?
気持ちを伝えるか 僕の迷いは ギンガムチェック
目の前の海 青一色で
すべて語ってるよ
シンプルな言葉ひとつ
僕は口にできないよ
臆病だから 今の関係も
しあわせってことさ
ギンガムチェック 夏が過ぎて
カーディガンは いつから着る?
この道をどこまでも 歩ける訳じゃないけど
ギンガムチェック 恋の期限
Yes, no, yes スルーでもいい
大事な君だから 次の夏まで ギンガムチェック
海がキラキラと 反射してる
僕のまだらな思いは 光と影
ギンガムチェック 君が着てる
半袖シャツ マニッシュだね
愛しくて切なくて 心は格子柄だよ
ギンガムチェック 恋の模様
ブルー ホワイト ブルー どっちだろう?
気持ちを伝えるか 僕の迷いは ギンガムチェック

This is easily one of my favourite MV by AKB48......the entire MV is very well-planned and it has definitely captured the essence of Japanese movies of that era (fighting monsters, gangs, ghosts, love).....best part is, I can see that all of them seem to be very happy and amused doing this MV. Most/All would have graduated by now, but I hope that they will look back and know that they all did a brilliant job in this MV
James Rawlins
TBH I thought everyone in the mv had long since graduated but Yui just graduated in 2021 and Rena and Anna Iriyama in 2022. Yui even served as General Director for all the AKB related groups - Gingham Check was done in her first year.
