Ii Hi was okay. I'm pretty partial to Onitsuka Chihiro's cover of that song with her smooth, relaxing vocals, so I don't really care for Koda Kumi's rendition. Her hair was very umm... "interesting".

Aw, the Lick me performance has been removed. :( I wanted to see it... Oh well.

I think the Ii Hi Tabidachi performance was really pretty! I've never heard this song before, but Kuu sounded great in my opinion. I actually really like her hair, the color is really cute!

her neck is very thick

Why does she keep singing "Lick me"? She should sing "Alive".

^ noooooo XD

i know. even if it's boring it's so much better than lick me. i hope she doesn't try to make it the next "girls" or something :tired i actually like "girls"

She wants everyone to lick her. Title says it all.

...probably because it's the song that has had the best reception...sadly enough...

Okay AHS is going down in Ayu flames so let me ask this quick!

You were... put me in the ULTIMATE Christmas mood and I was wonder if there were any Kumi songs that are considered Christmas-y.... So far I have:

1 - you
2 - yume no uta
3 - ai no uta
4 - Moon crying
5 - Stay with me
6 - winter bell

Are there any others you all would suggest?

^ Maybe faraway and Futari de...?

[edit]

I don't know how that got posted twice... but yeah I forgot about faraway somehow... :O

Thank you!

^click on edit at the right bottom of your post and then delete!

i wouldn't count Ai no Uta and Moon Crying really as Christmas Songs!

Futari de... maybe

i think [Candle Light],
cause when i listen to the song i have this picture in my head from someone who stand alone in the dark, it snows and the candle goes out!

Yeah I deleted one of them hahaha. Thank you <3

I'm not sure I have futari de!! D:

But I know I have candle light.

^if you want i can upload it for you if you want!
I mean if you don't have the song!

Do you want to make a J-Pop XMAS CD!?

jbrat, I'd say Unmei too :yes though Moon Crying has never made me think of Christmas XD

She looked nice in the FNS performances, yay for long hair! Weird colour though for the 2nd one. I really want her to go either bleach blonde or black.

The Lick me performance looked a little lifeless to me, I prefer the Best hits one though live arrangement sounded good.

Yes please! :) And yeah I'm trying to make a playlist! But it's pretty much going to just be Ayu and Kuu since I have majority of their songs and I don't feel like going on a scavenger hunt for others lol.
For Ayu I have:
1 - No way to say
2 - SCAR (somehow I imagine her singing in snow to this song...)
3 - HEAVEN
4 - Close to you
5 - JEWEL
6 - Momentum
7 - Together When...
8 - fated (orchestra version)
9 - Days
10 - You were...
11 - CAROLS

I want to mix both Ayu and Kuu together based on how the songs flow~

I was listening to Unmei and considering it. :yes

And yeah Moon crying isn't really Christmas-y but I kind of like that song and needed an excuse to put it on a mix CD since I don't have TRICK. :laugh

Really? I get a pirate vibe from this song! Like she's on a commanding a ship late at night through the Pacific and she starts to sing SCAR with all her other pirates!

Question.
If her is actually blond, I will be ecstatic Is it?

since last year i made my own christmas j-pop compilation every year but with more artists than ayu & kuu

@jbrat: i send you a PM with Futari de...
and i made tracklist plan for you, hope it flows:

01. Close to you
02. Winter Bell (Kuu)
03. Days
04. You were...
05. JEWEL
06. Yume no Uta
07. Unmei
08. CAROLS
09. Moon Crying
10. Candle Light

12. no way to say
13. Together when...
14. momentum
15. POWDER SNOW
16. fated (Orchestra Version)

SCAR feels a little bit wrong placed through all the winterish songs! xD

umm where's stay with me?

replace scar with stay with me, it's better anyway
