Eh? That's not true... first, last year, i won only 3 of 5 days i tried... secondly, i could not pay each tickets i won...

I thought you'll get banned from the fanclub if you don't pay for all the tickets you win?

You don't get banned from the fanclub, but you won't win any tickets in the next ticket lottery, if you don't pay all the won tickets.
At least that's what's always written in the rules for the international FC.
So you can decide not to pay all the tickets you've won, but it will have consequences the next time you apply for tickets.

What do you guys expect or hope for Kumi's new album? Do you guys think she'll follow the "tropical" wave that is going on western music, like Britney's Glory, Selena's Revival and stuff?

I think the album will be more like Bon Voyage than WALK OF MY LIFE, with some ballads here and there, and heavily western style inspired (as usual). I don't know much to expect, since there is a chance of Cupcake being there, and as far as we know about the song, it has a more "trap" type of beat, being more urban than pop.

I'm hoping for a fast paced song, something like Hyolyn's Paradise.

About the Cadillac song, that's probably the "original" song, it's not that bad actually. They probably they bought the demo. But you know... Mercedes > Cadillac. haha

Mercedes flows so much better than Cadillac in the lyrics.

BSC DVD 3rd week:
#7 - > #14 -> #13 -> #11 -> #13 -> #14 -> #17

I expect Cupcake, Promise you and Shhh! to be on the new album. Bring It On probably won't be there again (maybe as b-side for the single?).
Don't think the new songs from SoL and WoL will be there - would be too much songs for the album already and so both collection albums stay exclusive.
I can actually see the album to shape up quite urban.

I also agree the album will be similar to Bon Voyage. I'd love something like Slumber Party though with Ayu being Tinashe. :love

New album speculation making me excited :D

Also, I'm not classy cause I think Jeep > Cadillac/Mercedes lol

Dear god, oh no. I never have high expectations when it comes to the quality of a Kumi album, but Paradise is like a horrible outtake from SISTAR that they gave Hyorin to record. It should never have become a single.

I pray for god to not let Kumi have access to material like that.

Holy Shitte! I'm actually excited for this one, I'm still in love with SO FEVER & Kimi Omoi from the previous Pachinko release. Can we have some of the unreleased songs on the new Pachinko CD purizu.

Thats pretty amazing I was not expecting a new pachinko next year. Means more promotion around Japan, hopefully she will be more active musically in 2017.

New best album Pachinko of Love

I hope next time, new releases would be new album or single not something like this, I'm bored.

Aww my heart melts

LOL.

That was beyond lovely. She looks so young and fresh. It seems she was rehearsing for something (?)

New album "wait my new album eternally" coming soon

The new pachinko is for live performances.
So I guess, we can't expect new songs or larger promo for it.
