"Labrador Retriever" (ラブラドール・レトリバー, Raburadōru Retoribā) is the 36th single by the Japanese idol girl group AKB48. It was released in Japan on May 21, 2014 by King Records. This single was first performed at AKB48's concert in the National Olympic Stadium on March 29.[1] It was the best-selling single of the year in Japan, with 1,786,825 copies.[2]

## Synopsis

[edit]

The song tells the story of two young lovers who meet again at the beach resort where they had first met during the previous summer. They have arrived early this year, because they had not had enough time together the year before for their relationship to even progress to their first kiss—she asks if they should do that now. They had met when chasing the girl's childhood pet, a Labrador Retriever, as he played along the water's edge; this inspired her to give her new love the nickname "Labrador." The three of them chase across the beach as they had that first day, and she calls her love into her arms and asks (for the third time) if they should have their first kiss.

This song plays on not only the theme of first love, but also of the ways that people will "break the ice" by finding outside factors—in this case, chasing the dog—upon which to focus as an excuse to slowly come closer to a relationship. Her fear is exhibited by making a point of wearing a less-revealing 1970s-style bikini, then suggesting that she wore it because it's HIS favorite style. Having arranged to meet early (before their parents had arrived), the dog is once again the outside factor that provides a non-embarrassing reason to be together, while trying to overcome their inexperience with love. The protagonist is eager yet shy, so she talks about her pet as she works up her courage to call him into her arms, then to ask for that first kiss.

## Music Video

[edit]

The promotional video for Labrador Retriever begins with a woman in a kitchen, as she pours dog food into a metal bowl. The sound echoes through the house, surrounding sleeping teen girl Mayu Watanabe, and inspiring a dream in which she and other members of the group dance on a beach, in 1970s-style bikinis. As they dance, a Labrador Retriever approaches some of those same girls "in town," wearing street clothing. The dog is wearing a distinctive necklace, which is recognized by one of the girls as having been worn by their friend. As the dog runs away, they follow. The dog makes contact with other groups of girls, who take up the chase. As they arrive at the beach, the "town girls" and dancers pause to look at each other in confusion, then the Labrador runs toward the dancers. As the girls from town follow, the dancers hold out their arms in invitation and we then see that those running are now dogs. As they reach the dancers, they are once again girls, prancing like dogs excitedly greeting their people; visual effects make it possible for girls to be with themselves. The dancers are suddenly again with dogs, who run away and return to their earlier activities (this time as dogs rather than as girls). Watanabe wakes from her dream, and sits up in bed, as her Labrador watches. She turns to smile at the dog—then barks!

While not obvious the first time the video is viewed, a connection is easily made in subsequent plays when the Labrador first appears, running away from the dress and girl's shoes that Watanabe wears as a "town girl."

## Background

[edit]

The lyrics were written by Yasushi Akimoto. In this single, Watanabe returns as the center of the main song after the release of "So Long !" 1 year and 3 months earlier.[3] The main song in this single, "Labrador Retriever", was revealed to the public on March 29, 2014 during the encore session of their first concert at the National Olympic Stadium.[1]

This single will be released in five types; Type A (Normal / Limited Edition), Type K (Normal / Limited Edition), Type B (Normal / Limited Edition), Type 4 (Normal / Limited Edition) and Theater Edition.[4]

The first presses of the single came with a ticket to vote in the AKB48 37th Single Senbatsu Election (to choose the members to be featured in the next AKB48's single, to be released in the summer.)

AKB48 has been releasing a summer-themed CD in May every year since "Ponytail to Shushu", which was released in May 2010. 36 members were chosen to participate in the A-side song "Labrador Retriever", which has the same number as their 2012 single "Manatsu no Sounds Good!", but 4 more than last year's summer single, "Sayonara Crawl", that featured only 32 members. This is also their first single to release after AKB48 Group Grand Team Reshuffling Festival 2014 (AKB48 Group Daisokaku Matsuri / AKB48 グループ大組閣祭り). This single included the Graduation song of Yuko Oshima. This single marks as the first single to have Nogizaka46 member included in this single (Rina Ikoma).[5][6]
