I love to see how people always compare her new stuff to the old stuff. Wanna live in the past? Go to a museum. Covers and song are great, the rest is irrelevant.

Um ... because V.I.P. is amazing. That's why. :laugh

And omg, those lyrics are so sweet and so sad! All right, so maybe I like the song a little better now ... hah.

What a beautiful text*-*
I bet many fans will cry listening to the song live!!

The covers are so beautiful, too.
I need to listen to the song @ home after work, cant' wait=)

Last Kuu year was awesome, but this year seems to be 2006 perfection again*-*

Gubsi 4th August 2011 10:36 AM

well i wasn't impressed by the preview...
BUT today i heard it again and well...
i think this will become a wonderful ballad, it really sounds great!!

covers are gorgeous as hell i could throw dead bananas on the floor... lol
i wonder if the PV has the same theme as the covers!?
(waiting for cheap titanic rip-off pv with kuu using a rotary telephone to call her ugly dead boyfriend cause she can't use sms or twitter in the roaring twenties.... TroLoL)

NintendoHTF1242 4th August 2011 12:31 PM

^ LOL!!! I like that idea!! It'll change up from the usual cell phone theme. Yay rotary telephones <33

Minttulatte 4th August 2011 12:52 PM

My QUEEN never disappoints me. Ai wo Tomenaide sounds so perfect I got chills going down my spine. :love No one can make a ballad so perfect than Kuu. All hail the queen Koda Kumi o/

Benikari47 4th August 2011 12:53 PM

I'm really starting to adore this single so much, especially VIP and Poppin' Love Cocktail, already one of my favorite Jpop releases this year! Regarding Ai wo tomenaide, it sounds beautiful.. but it's your typical Jpop ballad, that doesn't necesarily have to be a bad thing.. but in this case it sounds like pretty much everything else, i'm not gonna judge it too much but i definitely prefer Suki De x3 alot more.

I'm loving the covers though! really elegant :yes

kaled kalil 4th August 2011 04:40 PM

Ai wo Tomenaide reminds me a lot Unmei, and I loved it. I hope the song have a good climax, the most recent ballad with climax that I like is You are so beautiful and I love those emotional moments.

Me too! At the first, the song was blah to me, but now I'm liking this mess!

Same, it's amazing what a music video can do to change your opinion.

But what can everyone do if she keep releasing things that sounds like her old works? It's not their fault if she doesn't release anything that soungs really new.

By the way, loved the covers but didn't like the song (But in general I don't like ballads)

kaled kalil 4th August 2011 08:08 PM

@Benikari47: Thank you :yes

Kumi will record a new live for Music Japan on 09/05 (I think it's for the Ai wo Tomenaide promotion).
Guest list: 植村花菜、KREVA、倖田來未、AAA、モーニング娘。Others (Alphabetic order).
Source: pid.nhk.or.jp

We already know about three live:

08/13 - CDTV
08/?? - Music Japan (Poppin'love cocktail)
09/?? - ??

I think she'll be at Music Station next week.

Minttulatte 4th August 2011 08:15 PM

What does it really matter if her work sounds a bit like her old ones? To me Ai no Tomenaide sounds like Ai no Uta mixed with the epicness of Yume no Uta. :D

Do you have the japanese lyrics too? Canīt find it anywhere. >_<

Zeke. 4th August 2011 10:18 PM

Song sounds boring to me. Has a slight hint of Unmei if anything. Defintely no Yume no Uta. It sounds like something they left off Suki de... single. Like it was either Suki de... or this and they chose Suki de... (for good measure).

Cover is stunning though! One of the best covers EVER by ANYONE!

jbrat2219 4th August 2011 10:23 PM

Didn't she have a similar style for her calender? Anyone think this may have been shot all the way back then?

~StarCatcher~ 4th August 2011 10:30 PM

^no the cover for the calendar this year is the tianic theme if you mean this.. and there she has got black hair =)

jbrat2219 4th August 2011 10:33 PM

Oh okay! I just remembered her looking very elegant then, too. She has the best clothes I wish I could raid her closet lol.

That's actually a very good idea.
