screencaps from the performance

rest in the spoiler

and also got some quite funny ones :laugh enjoy

She looked great....so much better than in the PV (which I think was a horrendous look for her)

I really like her dress :) She's so cute <3

Oh WoW she looks so sweet and awesome!! :love

:laugh funny screencaps nemesis! the performance bored me though & she sounded tiiiiired

thanks !

the screencaps for some are ace though :laugh

thank you honey!! i am glad everyone enjoyed that perf as much as i did.

looking forward to the next series of lives! maybe we will get ecstasy in there somewhere

have you not heard the preview of kuu's version? her voice sounds really beautiful :love

have you heard the preview...? she's not doing opera..

So Alive is a cover?

no. Alive samples a piece of classical music, which is what lacus posted.

^ LOL I love Kumi in your signature! So cute!

thank you :D

no, just a preview. starts after the kumi intro



love her gorgeous beauty queen heavenly angel vocals :yes i'm glad this is a song where she gets to show them off!

yeah...I don't know if it was being done or not...but maybe for now on...with any new news we can update the first post?

so people can just go there to get it?

I know we have a few people doing the threads...but like...they could just copy paste from the last threads and yeah...or maybe like the second post or something, have it reserved for new news?

what do you guys think.

i love the Lick me ♥'s live!! that's so funny!! *-*
for those who prefer to see it via youtube >.<

i love your idea, but sadly people will still skip over the first post anyway and post like "WHAT NEW NEWS :tipsy"

i'll add a spot for news though and update it with hwat i got :)

She sounds amazing :D:D:D I kind of want to see that movie too...

Omg every time I see your sig, I imitate Kumi's face because I'm a dork lol.

Eh. Don't care for her Alive song. I always dislike her ballads. To me her voice sounds super grating and nasal when she sings them .

ok i updated the first post a little :D there's now a news!!! section so i will just fill it in with anything major. so no one misses anything

she looks super cute!!! i love the performance!!

& thanks juicy for the update news on the 1st page!

She said "Rick Me". lol. She's so cute. That was a nice performance.

the 1st post of the thread looks great :yes

at least now if people who're unable to keep tabs on Koda (not to mention on how fast her threads goes on AHS @_@) is able to keep themselves updated & that they wouldn't feel so lost

thank you karen, i worked very hard on it. :D

anything else i need to add?

^ kuu will be at the july 13th episode of HEY! HEY! HEY! :)

woaaa i love the pics in the first post *oo*
thanks juicy for the work you're doing ^^

Thanks juicy for making the first post have news now... haha, and is Kuu in your sig from the Kingdom Tour or something? She looks so cutie there~ and you made a GIF from the Lick me performance which was cutie too!

Thanks neme for the screen caps! :heart

And thank you whoever you are for the GIF of Kuu pressing her boobies lol... and oh about that dress, Posh's boobs look so WEIRD... I just can't look at it any further lol.

oh sweet :D

ehh does this mean Tegomass will be on the same day as her ? :shrug *must check*

if so , I think she's going to say something to Tegoshi again xD xD xD . I know she did the last time when NEWS was on HEYx3 together with her when she did Aishou way back then 2 years ago

thanks! she sound really good!

actually i quite like kuu's ballads, she's good at them, if anyone realise she hardly go out of tone in them, compare to her upbeat songs live.
the only thing is...she likes to SMILE or wave at fans, even during a sad ballad....which sort of spoilt the mood. i just wish she stop doing that....

Kuu's a good singer, she have a really good and strong voice. i think she might have taken some lessons when she was a kid, coz her audition clips when she was young, sounds not bad. For her age, she's controlling her voice well.

^yes! my sentiments...she smiles in Yume no Uta....garhhhh

ugh i hate backtracking so much everyday :(

cuuuute! i'm gonna DL the perf now

is there a picture of the pouch yet?

Thanks for posting, she sounds amazing! :heart I'm really excited about this new single, I want to hear thw whole song soon...

I love this live! I know I said that I'm not going to listen to any of these 3 SPLASH songs before the actual single is released, but I just had to watch this performance and hear her vocals. :P Well, she sung really good after all! The performance was really cute.

not yet! :(

no! it is a Koi no Tsubomi live at MUSIC FAIR 21 ^^
you can see it here ;D

I think there will be a collaboration between Dream and Kuu, I'm not sure though :s
maybe it is a cover ..or a new song, because will have a videoclip @@

Thanks! She's cutie there!

And hmm Dream... who's that? But 2009 seems to be a busy year for Kuu!

Wow, a new song again (even if she's only featured in it)?! How is she doing this? xD I hope this is true, I think this sounds interesting. I've never heard about Dream before though...

Who is Dream? I have never heard of them. And HOLY CRAP so many versions XDDD

interested in hearing this new collab :)

Agreed.

LOL, someone should caption that. Her pose is so funny.

Thanks! The live is so cute.

I agree, if this news is true I think I would be very excited. I dunno why!

Wow KumiKuu is so busy this year, she's working non-stop!

Never heard of Dream before but hopefully it'll be awesome

the dum dum dum dum part is so funny.

Oh that's cool! A Collabo with dream! :love
I'm excited for it!! :D

dream kind of sucks tbh.. i don't know if i'm looking forward to this.

Is that kuu's voice altered? cuz it sounds HOT LOL

And here it goes, another song with Kumi... XD
I think it's a good sign that she's working and realeasing like that again. Avex toned her down a little bit because of the scandal last year and now she's popular again.^^

Lick me performance is so cute! ♥
Her vocals are nice, I wish she'd pronounce the english vers in the chorus more clearly, I know she can.
Sad, it's just a short version of Lick me. :(

well i think exiles music sucks but kumi's collabo with them is really good :yes so i hope she does the same for dream

and yeah that video is kumi's voice with the pitch lowered lol

i love this :luv2 he has a really good voice!!

ohh another collab?? sounds very interisting!! i hope its going to be SEXY something like D.D.D :love

i love the Lick Me performance!!!! she looked sooo cute!! i loved the ending

his voice reminds me of an anime singer *O*
that's NICE!! i like it so much ♥

cool new set! love the maroc photos

^ thank you, juicy :D

Dream is a girl group. A couple of their songs have been chosen for animes. The one I know the best is My Will from Inuyasha.

OMG! :laugh
That's so true!!
I love her collabo with EXILE, than i downloaded an album from EXILE!
And when i listen to it i was like:
OMG I LIKE THIS CRAP SO MUCH I THROW IT IN THE RECYCLE BIN!!

I really like dreams music so i hope it will be a good song/ PV!
BUT we know Kuu! She makes a great Collab, even with someone who makes crappy music!

BUT wait... dream (6)+ EXILE (14)...:thud
OMG did they have enough space for all the guys in 1 PV!?
It would look like this:
http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/i...reamxEXILE.jpg

^ LOL!! you are awesome Gubsi~

I watched one show from music station with EXILE.. OMG they covered the whole stage XD Do all of them sing ?

hah! reminds me of when I was 11 and I LOVED that song :laugh

whats with all the versions of dreams thing though...is it like a box set or wth.

I love dream :love
I'm so happy kuu is collaborating with them for their new album <3

Thanx Cherrim! :3

No only 2 or 3 of them sing, the rest 11 or 12 members are just dancers!! :dead2

^woah serious? :laugh that's the most hilarious thing I've ever heard.

I did not know that about EXILE...I thought they were just another boy band with the 5-6 singers whatever.

Another preview of August issue of The Television:

CM :

thanks Tsubasa & Luver!
wow! new collab again..

Thanks for the info XD.. and wow! that seems so... useless... lool

Thanks for the preview of August issue of The Television , LuverOfLuv :)

FOR ONCE , the tie dye outfit that she's wearing , looks great on her in here :yes

:roflmao :roflmao :roflmao :roflmao OMG yeah!
maybe they will take inspiration from that picture and make a PV :roflmao
everyone would be like ''where's kuu'' all the time :laugh
you could not even see her there :laugh

so cute! thanks for sharing!! :luv2

HDU!! :backstab

Hahaha that was hilarious!

oh I see...

9th anniversary...released on 09/09/09 lol

Is there 9 versions of the release as well?

I wonder what the song's gonna be like.

Koda & DBSK can be cool ;)

I watched the Lick me performance from MUSIC JAPAN. I really loved it. The song is actually playing in my head right now. I just couldn't help myself. I'm getting sick with this waiting already. I thought whatever and watched it. I really love Lick me now. Made me smile. ^___^ This song even reminds me of LOVE HOLIC from secret. Now I have heard previews of all the songs. I'm getting very excited over this single again. <3

I also listened that dream song, My Will, and fell in love with it. Very cool song. Maybe I should try out more of their music? :) I have no idea what kind of music they make nowadays but I became so curious about it. Hopefully it's something very good. Hopefully Kuu x dream sounds good. :)

Uhh, dream is so unpopular it's not even funny. lol.

They haven't really been popular since it was just 3 of them o_O.

but umm, interesting.....

Maybe they just want to debut their new (what looks like r&b/hip hop/dance???) style with some of the current popular artists with that style??? meh, dunno. Strange though...

I can't believe there are 9 versions of the single lol. I think that's like a record :P:P

I agree, but at least this guy can sing.

thanks! I think she looks great.
I want the full scans soon :laugh

aww yeah that pic is so cute :love

im actually pretty excited for this new collab, it sounds really cool!

this is Kumi's voice altered, as said Cherrim :)
a friend who knows about this says that there are programs that alter the original voice.. :yes

The photos are great, Kuu looks great!

Tsubasa, love your set, I adore her Maroc photobook! :heart

Thanks, Luver!

LOL at the male version of Lick Me!! hahaha

9:00 AM is so adorable!! haha
ok...the previews are very short i realized..haha...for the first two interludes....

I love the Lick Me remix the most...
Hashire!'s remix is really cool...it doesnt follow the beat of the song but it still works!!
ECSTASY doesnt seem so itneresting haha..the actual song is like a remix itself

i love so much all them!!! :luv2
thank you Luver♥

everything ziped download thanks to hikkikun@JPM:

http://www.mediafire.com/?tmmogfwnmwi

Omg those previews were really good! The whole single is looking to be an excellent release this year. I can't wait xD

^ Thanks! Interludes and remixes are awesome!

Anyway... I followed the tracklist of the single, but found it weird...so I rearranged my tracklist for 3 SPLASH

1. 9am
2. Lick me ♥
3. 12 45pm
4. 走れ!
5. 4 20pm
6. ECSTASY
7. 12am

The timing makes more sense... who the f goes to the club at 12 45. Drinking on an empty stomach is a big no-no sweetie.
