On my way is Alone -part II-

2 years time and only dance + sitvideos, where is the creativity going?...

Nothing could prepare my ears for the Insane preview.

I was actually pleasantly surprised by the quality (considering the low budget) after preparing for the worst based on the comments. The videos may not have much money or thought invested in them but they're very nice to look at.

I also expected the worst, but they look alright. Insane looks even really nice.
Just simple in concept.
Don't know about the songs yet, need more!

I'm in love with Wicked Girls, can't wait to listen the whole song. ♥


I also got excited with her discography on Spotify, and created some playlists. :D

Anyone else find this boring as hell? At least she looks good though.

The PVs look really horrible...

I wonder if we all are watching the same previews lol Cant see whats so cheap or terrible with WG or Insane, at least with Ultraviolet I could get why some would hate it

I liked WG and Insane previews. Wonder if is there MV that was recorded outside a studio, with real streets, houses, cars or beach. Just CG MVS are really boring. The latter two MVS are better than the two first though

These are incredible, thank you!! I love the pictures you chose for the playlists too. I followed all of them except for the ballad one (just not a fan of Kuu's ballads)

Wicked girls sounds so basic, uninspired and :headache

The cheapness comes from the fact that all the PVs were probably shot in the same place, with similar techniques and it's just her dancing and moving around from the beginning to the end.

I wouldn't be surprised if we find out that she shot these PVs on the same day, because they are rather basic.

As for the sound, can't judge based on few seconds, but nothing so far grabs my attention :/

I wish I could identify shooting stages and techniques with five second long teasers lol That's why I can say I understand complains about Ultraviolet but there can be much more for these aPVs (and imho they already seem better in budget terms than the other)

Omgg she must be kidding us. Can't believe 4 videos are like that. We better expect the same for Promise you and Bassline then :laugh

Wicked Girls is giving me life though. At least the songs sound promising!

@junniorkopke: Thanks for the playlists

If there were outside shots or different scenes, it would make no sense highlighting scenes of her dancing in a box, don't you think?

Five seconds are enough to realize that they were shot exactly in the same way.

I'm hoping I enjoy the PVs as I enjoyed WOML's set of PVs even if they were kind of basic such as Like It and Money In My Bag. I actually really enjoy those videos because of the choreography.

Who cares if the videos aren't the highest of budgets...I'm still loving the look (and sound!) of it all, anyway. :luv2 "Wicked Girls" is so cute (getting Inside Fishbowl vibes! :P) and omg @ "Insane"...NEED FULL PV NOW! :heart :heart :heart

I also honestly haven't felt this hyped for one (or should I say, two) of Kumi's albums in a long time - maybe since Dejavu/JAPONESQUE? Kuu's look & the style of all these songs, so far, are just right up my alley. :D

Thank you, Karen :love

Compared to Kuu's past PVs which some of them are still my favourites up to now , this time round the budget for her latest batch of PVs have dropped considerably by avex

Not just concept but also the way some of the PVs were directed as well

From the way I see it , I'm annoyed that Kuu is going the same route that V6 and Tackey & Tsubasa is going (Great songs but terribly low budget PVs)

Maybe avex is diverting all the budget to other artistes like Kisumai who from day 1 of their debut , all their PVs have been super expensive & mostly well produced which includes PVs from their upcoming 1st triple A-side single under their label I don't know :x

@Gustavopc You can just compare the PVs from SUMMER/WINTER of LOVE, which was basically a quick cash, to these. I know we are judging a 10 seconds preview, but as we saw with Ultraviolet & BRIDGET SONG, the preview shows pretty much everything from the PV which is not impressive at all.

The fact that the projection for BS is a post-production thing, not even a projector was used... Okay.

Seeing Avex's youtube page it's quite clear they are not putting money anywhere, maybe acts like Dream Ami are getting the money, but the rest are just like W FACE PVs. That's really weird.
