yea, i think he was referring to the songs themselves, not the sales. :)

Agreed. "Secret" wasn't even all that great, but the quality was 100% better than the crappy songs "Black Cherry" had even though it sold like crazy.

Ok so if its NOT about the sales, its about PERSONAL PREFERENCE isnīt it? So itīs not fair sayin that "nothin is gonna beat" GUILTY..... Cause I can have another opinion.....
Anyway, this opinionīs discussions are so borin, I didnīt mean to say that, sorry =)

Kikaru 11th December 2007 03:09 AM

I'm not saying that it's wrong to have another opinion. Feel free to like Black Cherry more or anticipate Kingdom more or whatever. But I was just saying that if someone else anticipate Guilty or Secret more, and think they're the better album, just because the album sold less does not make the worst in quality.

If I come off as a bit catty, or whatever, I'm sorry. It has become somewhat of a personal pet peeve to use sales to back the quality of an album, because from my personal experience it doesn't ring true. For example, Hitomi Shimatani, who I think really has talent, doesn't get that great sales, but it doesn't make her a bad artist with bad music.

Isn't it fair for xilirationisfun to express his personal preference, then? I don't understand how it's unfair for him to say that. He's entitled to his opinion as you are to yours.

Yeah gotta agree there. Sales do not equate to quality or talent. A lot of excellent releases sell poorly but the musical material included is very high. Sales aren't particularly linked to quality, usually they are linked to promotion, fanbase, hype created and the image of the artist. A load of artists sell well even if their songs are mediocre, because they either have a strong tie-in or a crazy fanbase.

Official Site Updated!! NEW LAYOUT AND ANYTIME PV PREVIEW!
[Now i see, it was REALLY to be in FREAKY single (Extreme blond) I'm sure that she flimed back in july in LA :P]

Kaiouforever 11th December 2007 12:05 PM

I love the layout! And the PV for anytime looks great, she looks really pretty in all of the shots. But she looks a little too skinny in my opinion. (Eat some ramen Kuu!!)

jiarongisme 11th December 2007 12:44 PM

thinkingoutloud89 11th December 2007 03:56 PM

hmm pV looks strange and was surly filmed alonside RFYL but the song is pretty nice^^

Beauty4123 11th December 2007 03:57 PM

the preview reminds me of the birthday eve PV with kuu making that cake and stuff. she's almost doing the same in anytime, lol. i like the PV preview, but it's just nothing special. kinda boring. at least kuu looked cute. don't really like the really blonde hair, though.
