Actually, GTTT fitted perfectly after CRANK THA BASS and LOL in the album imo, I was even surprised myself because before I listened to the album I still didn't like that song, but now I'm actually liking it because it fitted the album really well!
But koishikute trully sounds misplaced... I liked it in the album though, it's nice to have a ballad there, it kind of balances the album nicely :)


So I've listened to the album many times already and I seriously think it's tied with UNIVERSE as my favorite Kuu album right now, I just love it so much!! :heart

Omg I would've murdered to be at this concert. Love these remixes! Listen to them practically every day lifting since they were released.

I love that kumi does this. So rad.

This album is gorgeous.
Solid, beautiful, very kumi style. It turned me into a stan. LOVED IT.
I can't get why IS THIS TRAP wasn't included ARGH I CAN'T GET OVER IT. it would have been perfect.
I love all the songs, I was really fond of the singles already so yeah.♥
Go to the top is perfection, TOUCHDOWN, LALALA, dreaming now!♥
The only songs I could have lived without are CRANK THA BASS and let's show tonight, but I praise her for trying something different and doing it well, it's just that they aren't my cup of tea. I also have to let LOL grow on me a little because that chorus with the hahaha it's a bit strange, but I liked it as a whole and it def will!
Also Imagine, bleeeh. Nice lyrics but another r'n'b ballad, I can't stand it, skipped it after a while. I love koishikute and it fit very well with the flow of the album!
Also loved LOADED, winner girls, on your side, U KNOW, show me your holla and the interludes.

For me, LOL is the best on the album! Closely followed by Dreaming Now and Loaded.

Kuu appeared in a Gay Club in Tokyo tonight as a surprise. :)

I didn't see this posted here so here is the link to the full LOL PV:

LOL PV

:thud

she killed it!! thanks for sharing, she was stunning at the club... look at her body :tipsy

That's exactly how I felt when JAPONESQUE was released and they left Say Her Name out. AND I'M STILL NOT OVER THAT, lol.

All these reviews make waiting for my damn copy so haaaaard!!
Ugh!

OMG, I so don't know how to feel after listening to this album. There's no song I feel like listening on repeat (talking about the new songs only), I listen to LOL and On your side and they are good but no 'WOW factor' included. Imagine is something I have to listen to a bit more. Let's show tonight is very similar to SMYH and yet I totally dislike it (while I love SMYH), Interlude may grow on me, not sure, I have listened to Crank da bass twice and I can hardly classify it as music, the beginning is too weird to me and then it has this singing moment at 2:20, ......., headache. Finally U Know is nice but it sounds so american (katy perry or dunno), so not Koda Kumi, but I like it, it's fun, I guess.

I can say this album is a step up, she feels more matured (and old style songs like Koishikute, Go to the top and Dreaming now, even Lalalalala feel very off to me -although some fit the album but the feel like old Kuu vs new Kuu)

I feel bad that there's not even one song where I'd like to crush replay button and I feel I may not listen to this album unless I see it live and maybe like it better then. So much for being overexcited.

OMG, that florescent make up, awesome idea!Q!!!! I wanna watch the whole thing NOW :)

I love how she promotes this album, I hope it's sold well, however I proud of her for giving great album again :)

Let's Party vol.2 is such an awesome concert by her, regret it's just provided for fanclub only.

Thanks for the translation! Very beautiful lyrics indeed.

This was AMAZING! I can not wait to see the entire footage. The next time someone tries to justify why Ayu "can't" perform remixes live because it's "too hard" I'll show them this footage.

a) Loooooooove Kuu's look at the gay club. Glad to see her supporting the community.

b) LOL's full PV made me like the song more. Thanks for posting!

c) I already love Imagine, despite that I haven't listened to it yet. Thanks for the translation! Just starting Winner Girls... which leads to...

d) I loved Loaded. Well, loving what I've heard so far all in all. It might be too soon to say, but I think I like this album more than I thought I would after hearing the previews.

e) Listening to Imagine now. Its pretty. The chorus <3

f) Wait... did someone call Touch Down a JoJo cover? I thought that was just a demo?

Imagine lyrics fir her latest interview so well.
So she really changed at least concerning her music style.

I really want to hear Bon Voyage and watch Let's Party vol. 2 so desperately after all your awesome critics♥

same here, this is the first time ever that i'm excited about a kumi album :spinning

it's so unusual in japanese music industry to don't release an album for more than one year that when it happens with some well known artist like kumi we get more anxious about it! :yes

i hope for good numbers!

Kumi peformed XXX and LOADED in a gay club yesterday, and surprisingly there's a fancam. ♥

She looks stunning and so happy. ♥

Cool she performed XXX, I will watch it as soon as I am at home.

Did you guys know that Kumi released three digital best albums last year.
Summer Single Collection, Complete Best and Winter single collection?
I only knew of the last one.

Does any of you have any link to them?;-)

LOL PV was awesome. I really loved it♥ And Let's Party Vol.2 looked awesome in that remix medley video. I was so happy to see Whatchu Waitin' On performed live. It was one of my favorite songs from 2012 so it was nice. It also brought me some nice memories from that year. I totally overplayed the song then. I think it had over 330 plays at some point lol. :D I hope someone makes a audio rip of the whole concert if possible because I love to listen those so much~

It was also very nice of her to make a surprise visit in a gay club. I felt jealous that they got so close to her. It would have been an awesome experience for me as well♥

I'm just about to start listening to Bon Voyage and will come here to give some feedback on it later~

Those can be easily made by yourself too, if you got the songs in mp3 on your computer. That's what I did since the songs aren't even different from the originals. ;3

Okay cool.

I was searching for the albums, because I thought maybe there is some difference in certain songs.
