3. 言い訳Maybe (Maybe an Excuse) (2009, arr. 2012)
Composer: 俊龍 (Shunryu)
Arranger: 小島里美 (Satomi Kojima)
The 13th single of the group, 言い訳Maybe was the first
one with its participating members chosen by the AKB48
Selection General Election (held annually from 2009 to
2018). Released on 26th August, 2009 (almost exactly
15 years ago from today!), this single outsold the one
released on the same date by SMAP, the popular men
group. Apart from its accomplishment on the sales, this
single is a remarkable one in AKB history because of the
chequered skirt the members wore in the music video
which later became a symbol of the group.
