Ok i've just watched it. It was a cute video! though i was waiting a naughty one.

I don't know why but she actually reminded me of Namie in some parts :laugh. And she's good looking!

She doesn't look Asian at all, she looks really Spanish :yes

naxxo.licious™ 24th March 2008 12:58 AM

^ Tru dat. She doesn't look asian at all (i don't think she looks spanish either :laugh)

Is she a gyaru?? BTW, looking at these pictures it looks like DOUBLE has some BIG DOUBLE THINGS over there O__o

fanmail 24th March 2008 01:00 AM

OMGOSH, I LOVE YOU XD

Not Spanish, so to speak, but... Latina? I dunno. :shrug

Haha, nooo no she's not gyaru. J-Urban singers love their make up (Heartsdales :innocent)

LMFAO. Yeah, she got some N-IIII-CE DOUBLE's. :bgiggle

She actually looks black in the Call Me video, at certain parts. :D

I agree. DOUBLE hardly looks asian in photos or videos. I think she may have gone under the needle a few times because looking back @ pics of her and Sachiko in the 90s she looked asian. Nowadays, she's all over the place^^

guilty me: Glad U liked the video. Sorry the title mislead U. DOUBLE's videos are pretty tame IMO. Some tight outfits and sexy dance moves are about as erotic as she gets^^ Not 2 be a hater but I think Takako is WAY prettier than Namie. I love them both btw but Takako pulls off the sexy look better.

aww, another BEST? ah well, I'll get it. Thanks <3333333333

Halla 25th March 2008 11:11 AM

Her label seems to be really into milking her fans now with compilations after 10YB pushed into 100k-ish in sales.

double's recent original album did not have much success. I believe the compilation album Double released as DJ Lilly had more success. it was a nonstop mix of RnB tracks, both japanese and western with a few of her own songs in there too.

I do like Double's music, but I'm not super into her. I think her remixes are awesome, i really like her remix albums. I don't see US debut as a possibility for Double tho. Her style of music would seem dated in comparison in the US, I do like 90s type of RnB but it won't just sell as a new music.

but as far as j-RnB goes, I think no one at the moment can top ARIA. she's a great vocalist and her music sounds fresh and update, no one in the j-rnb scene can match the quality of her production music- and image-wise.
ARIA is also the only one who has potential to crossover to the US if she can speak english ...

Nanako 25th March 2008 11:41 PM

The collaboration best seems interesting but it's unnecessary. I agree with Halla they're trying to milk her while she's hot. I don't blame them though. I'm excited about what the new PV will look like. I hope it's a dancy one^^

well, yes, but obviously, she'd get all the hot producers working for her... and she'd get all the hot rappers on her album too. :dead2

I wonder who the new collabo is with :shrug

Damn, my scanner is hot! ~

KaoriNeko 20th April 2008 07:00 PM

She did a song with Lupe Fiasco and Ak'sent?!
Oooh ~ I used to hate her, but I really love Summertime! It's so fun!

...one question, why is she called DOUBLE?

Sasha 20th April 2008 07:06 PM

KaoriNeko
originally it was a band with two sister. SACHIKO and TAKAKO, so that's the name. But then SACHIKO died and TAKAKO decided to continue performing under that name.

KaoriNeko 20th April 2008 07:08 PM

Aw ~ Really? That's terrible.
thanks for telling me Sasha.

fanmail 20th April 2008 07:13 PM

Yah. She's really cute in the Crystal Planet documentary. :weep

KaoriNeko 20th April 2008 07:19 PM

How'd she die? Was it a Namie's mom sort of deal? You know, the whole axe and car thing?

fanmail 20th April 2008 07:25 PM

No!! She had a head injury. Haemorage, or however you spell it.
