JUICY GIRL has the potential to be really good, love the electro beats, but the chorus is so disappointing. Might grow on me.

The synth in MasterBlaster is so annoying >_< Even with that cool middle section to the song, I don't think I can get over the horrible use of synth.

Stayin alive, I've missed her random covers! I really like this, has a nana-punk vibe to it.

So has the single leaked yet? I haven't listened to any of the new songs yet.

#27. :( still hope it'll get a top 20 weekly position, at least.

it's not as though avex didn't tried to push Anna's name , especially since they did managed to get her to perform/appear on HEYx3 , MUSIC STATION before

I think just like girl next door & Anna , avex kinda stopped pushing them to go on such shows to get their material promoted ._.

Anna doesn't appear today in the TOP 30... that's too bad... someone knows if I can see when is she? XDDD http://www.oricon.co.jp/rank/js/d/2011-09-28/

I really had high hopes that this single would place higher on Oricon. But i guess with the lack of promotion, it's hard to do really well, even if the songs are awesome. Anyways, I hope that the single can climb back up on the charts. I hope "Switch On!" does better since it's the theme song for a show.

the PV preview for "Stayin' Alive" got re-uploaded:


i think anna's cover is pretty cool. :P

Anna's husband Yamato Kikuchi had a fight with a karaoke clerk yesterday night and it seems he was drunk... He's been arrested by the police... Anna wrote a message on her blog and official website to apologize. Here's a video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SsFD...layer_embedded

That's too bad... :( poor Anna... and her kids!!

UNCHAINED GIRL is finally up for download www

http://www.j-mp3.info/2011/10/unchained-girl.html

^Thank you so much. I've been waiting for this~ :)

Tsuchiya Anna apologizes about her husband on a radio show

On October 1st, Tsuchiya Anna appeared on TOKYO FM’s ‘DHC COUNTDOWN jp‘ at Shibuya Spain-zaka Studio.

The other day, Tsuchiya’s husband, stylist Kikuchi Yamato, was arrested for acting violently at a Karaoke store. As this was her first public appearance since the incident, Tsuchiya apologized saying, “I haven’t talked to him yet, but I’m sorry he has hurt and caused trouble to many people.” She also said that she would report the circumstances on her blog as soon as possible.

After the radio appearance, the reporters directly approached Tsuchiya as she came out of the parking lot in a station wagon. With an annoyed expression, she said, “I’m sorry to have caused you trouble,” and drove off.

http://www.tokyohive.com/2011/10/tsu...-a-radio-show/

^ "With an annoyed expression, she said, “I’m sorry to have caused you trouble,” and drove off." what? annoying expression?

http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-e0DlA3X_jE...uchiyaanna.jpg

This is not an annoying expression xD I mean, Anna apologized in her blog, website, now on the radio... why have the paparazzi bother her? Of course she has to be upset, but I'm sure Anna wasn't unpleasant... :|

And what...? She didn't talk to Yamato yet? Is she so angry with him or she can't...? Hope the second xD he has to be very embarrased...

Anna will sing STAYIN' ALIVE at this program, Ryuha-R!! http://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp/ryuha/index2.html

skdnvalbsjhvbfclhjkfdl finally... :Q_____

BEST ALBUM listed for a 12.21 release now.

^ where did u read that? O__O

excluding her NANA best album/s , I guess this will be Anna's 1st proper best album as an artiste :O

& it's sad to say that UNCHAINED GIRL is not even in the top 50 for this week's singles chart :tired

A chinese fan told me this will be a BEST COLLABORATION, not BEST ABUM...

Even though she has heaps of releases to fill a best album, I don't think this is the time for it.

JUICY GIRL has grown on me now, love it. The beat is so freaking awesome. Makes the whole song for me.

You have no idea who's Tak Matsumoto ?! He's a legendary guitarist & it's such a HUGE honour for Anna to work with him

Seriously & the fact that he composed KAT-TUN's debut single Real Face , he did such a great job with it

^ confirmed tracklist so far

^ Bangalicious, YAAAAAAAAAY! Love that song!

^ Is this for real????? DDDDDDDDD:


WHAT A ****ING ****

Those Switch On ! covers are way better than any of the covers she had last year :innocent :o

^ ur kidding me right? xDDDDDDD

do I sound as though I'm kidding ? Atashi & Shout in the rain covers were awful while Rule is well ...

UNCHAINED GIRL's covers are great , it's so Anna . I'm just saying if you want to complain , lodge a complain to avex's people directly if you're not happy on what you see

Then again I don't buy her singles anymore so :o

I absolutely love the second cover! Where did these come from?

I love concept of covers )

i love the DVD cover! i love anna's look. :heart

but the CD only cover is kinda...cool, i guess? :P

I like the covers :yes

Personally, I love the CD+DVD cover! <3 As for the covers, well... They're unique. :P

I hope that we'll get the tracklist soon!

does anyone knows when will we be able to watch STAYIN' ALIVE performance at coming soon?

cover

Thanks for the info nata! If there is a good number of photos in this book, I might buy it!

^ It's a book like ANNA BANANA, so yeah, it probably has many photos

somehow the tracklist's not very interesting . Too bad , I was looking forward to hear at most a B-side in Switch On

Guess not ._.

for me, this is the worst single E-V-E-R. My love for Anna istoo big so I like everything and I'm sure I'll like the song only because she sing it but... ok, no, Anna, don't do this again

I wish the Rock 'n' Roll version wasn't instrumental T___T I would love to listen to anna singing that!!!!!!

Does anyone know where to download Stayin Alive PV?

Hmmm I bought the single but I don't know how to rip the PVs... sorry U__U

Well, you gotta remember, this is a Kamen Rider single, there's never an actual B-side just instrumental takes just like what AAA, Aya Kamiki, and GACKT's three Kamen Rider singles had dealt with.

^ hope we will get a new single (or an album) soon and we'll have good bsides...

oh ok I don't listen to AAA , Aya Kamiki & GACKT so I wouldn't know how this's in line with Kamen Rider

I just feel it's a bit of a rip off , especially since both editions for Switch On ! is more costly than what UNCHAINED GIRL is & UNCHAINED GIRL is a triple A-side to begin with :x

did you forget about the collab best out in December already? ;)

^ of course not!! I'm so happy about that, but I also want a full album :Q___ I want anna anna anna anna and more anna! XD

I'm just looking forward to the Tak x Anna Collaboration! :roflmao <---- *big B'z fan*

LOL

I love the compositions that he does for other artistes such as KAT-TUN's Real Face which was downright amazing if not brillant

Hopefully some of his magic will rub well on Anna

Switch On! PV http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xme...om=embediframe

The Switch On ! PV is quite amusing . I couldn't help but laugh seeing the Kamen Rider robot mascot dancing to the song in the PV , hahahahaha

At least the PV has a slightly higher budget unlike the ones in UNCHAINED GIRL & oh I realised Anna isn't managed by Mad Prey Records anymore ?

Seems that now it's avex entertainment that's taking care of her stuff :O

Switch On ! is already up for download

http://www.j-mp3.info/2011/11/switch-on.html

And the single debuted at #15 on the 1st day

http://www.oricon.co.jp/rank/js/d/2011-11-22/more/3/

^^ MAD PRAY RECORDS was still managing "UNCHAINED GIRL"... :O and now is avex entertainment... what a surprise, but I think is better this way isn't it?

I think #15 is a great debut position for this single, especially considering that "Switch On" is the only original song on it. I'm hope we hear more information regarding the tracklist of her collaboration album soon.

the "Switch On!" PV is fun, lol. i like the song. :)

Wow the Kamen Rider tie in really helped Switch On ! a lot o_o

Has been quite a long time since a release of hers did well somemore , nice going Anna !

^Since Brave Vibration!!! more than 2 years...

Switch On! sold even more than RULE :(

Seems like Anna's collabo album is postponed til further notice

http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/list_from_c...?key=700002924

Ah yeah I realised that when I logged onto CDJapan's website

I knew something was not right , since by now the covers & tracklist should be released , if the album is going to be released on 21st Dec

but still nothing materialise , I guess that's that :shrug

but if the album has been postponed why CDJapan and YesAsia didn't change the information? I mean when Swith On! was postponed CDJapan and YesAsia changed the information, and anna's official website said something about it...

I'm impressed the new song sold even more than LUCY!

It seems that Avex is being lazy, they released Ami Suzuki covers and tracklist for new album like 2 weeks before the release

Also they postponed Ami's album from Dec 7th to 21st but it was pushed back to 7th like a week later (when the covers leaked)

So maybe something similar happens with Anna, I was looking forward to this new album

http://anna-t.com/news/index.html

the collaboration best album is not listed on there anymore

In another piece of news , Anna will be performing in Shanghai on 2nd Jan !

UNCHAINED LIVE“1st Live in Shanghai”
日時：2012年1月2日(月) 18:00開場/19:30開演
会場：Shanghai International Gymnasium Center
詳細：http://www.damai.cn/ticket_31895.html

16K is pretty great for an Anna single. The last time she sold that much was Kuroi Namida which was nearly 5 years ago. Not bad.

Anna has cancelled her live in Shangai

http://www.damai.cn/ticket_31895.html

Wow... I'm so sorry for you guys :( but if she's sick why doesn't she cancelled all her lives in December too? :/

Yeah, what really happened here? Any official explanation why? That's quite sad...

I don't know but it's very sad... chinese people deserve Anna too :(

Tsuchiya Anna to tackle “Survival 0 Yen Seikatsu” for the first time

Singer/model Tsuchiya Anna will be participating in the popular project, “Survival 0 Yen Seikatsu“, for the first time on December 29th’s broadcast of “Ikinari! Ougon Densetsu 6 Jikan SP“, a variety show on TV Asahi.

“Ougon Densetsu” is a special year-end program that features a group of four male celebrities and their partners who must compete in a rigorous survival situation. Tsuchiya, who was chosen by fellow celebrity Hamaguchi Masaru, will be shown doing numerous odd tasks like getting into a metal drum bathtub in Okinoerabushima and catching fish in the ocean. Hilariously, Hamaguchi is “held captive” in a pub, where they drink merrily until morning.

Other participants in the program include Mizusawa Aki and Kasuga Toshiaki – who bathe together in a must-see mixed bathing scene – Haruna Ai, and Suzuki Sawa.

http://www.tokyohive.com/2011/12/tsu...he-first-time/

Anna will appear at HEY!HEY!HEY! MUSIC CHAMP this January 9th ♡

btw someone knows how to rip a dvd? I want to rip STAYIN' ALIVE PV for anna fans... but I don't know how :(

This saturday's Bullet Traveler (NTV) will broadcast Anna's trip to Sicily with Mika Ninagawa <3

Thanks Anna&Olivia

- 2 songs feat. Akihiro Namba + 1 song feat. B'z
- 2 songs feat. B'z + 1 song feat. Akihiro Namba
- Or 1 song feat. Akihiro Namba + 1 song feat. B'z + 1 song feat. who??????

I like the concept of the photobook & this has to be my fave photo out of the lot *__*

http://storage.canalblog.com/96/23/304968/72072854.jpg

Somehow Anna doesn't look convincing to me as she portrayed a chambermaid haha

she's amazing model ! :)

I heard there's a new version of Anna's GINGER with Jared Leto and someone posted it on summer, but he/she deleted after a few hours and I can't find it anywhere else. I sent a message to that person asking if it could be uploaded again and he/she answered: "yes! as soon as posible" but he/she didn't do anything... do you guys know where can I get that song????

This is the person who uploaded the video with the song http://www.youtube.com/user/AnnaTFan?blend=1&ob=0

At first I thought it was fake but some facebook friends listened it before the video was deleted and they're sure is Jared Leto who sings with Anna the song.

I'm so happy that songs such as "Checkmate", "QUEEN OF THE ROCK", "The Letter", and "Bangalicious" are going to be on this album. I hope "Dirty Beauty" makes the cut as well although it currently isn't listed.

^^^And I HAVE to have that photobook! The pics are gorgeous and I love the concept!

^the tracklist is out and Dirty Beauty is not there

The photobook can be preordered here --> http://www.amazon.co.jp/SOSEXY-%E5%9...SIN=4891949406

I want to buy it but... 60€ with shipping included!! It's too much... I don't have all that money... :(

According to Amazon:

Anna Tsuchiya feat. Takahiro Matsumoto (B'z) / ALL RIGHT NOW
Anna Tsuchiya feat. Akihiro Namba (HI-STANDARD) / IS THIS LOVE?

The 3rd new song is still a mystery, and we don't know which song will have a video

"タイトル未定　※新曲PV収録予定　
約15分収録予定" Am I wrong or it says that the new video is 15 minutes longer? O_O

^ no it's stating that the entire DVD, (i.e. everything that is scheduled to be included on it) is about 15 minutes long.

^ yesterday some friends who know japanese told me that I was right, the last video is 15 minutes long O_o
