I seriously wonder if she and Ayu collaborated and came up with that idea... Not that Kumi would take her musical and image queues from Ayu, but it would be interesting and the extreme RnRC reference would be forgivable to my eyes.

..I like the font.

It's still a good cover, but I def. prefer the CD cover more.

The font is nice~

I like the font too. It fits nicely together with the dark covers imo. :)

Oh and I love the HQ version of the CD Only cover. It's also big enough to be put on laptop wallpaper ah <3 Thank you very much <3

kuu seems to be a big ayu fan so I wouldn't be surprised lol.

I don't know why, but I'm hesitating to pre-order the album...

The DMP itself is so worth the price, consider the album a bonus ;)

:laugh wouldn't that be great? Johnny Depp pops out AND THEN Namie comes out too & steals the PV from Kuu, singing Do Me More :D :heart

^actually yeah. just take out the johnny depp part and you got yourself a great pv. :D

lol.. that's such a reach. The only thing in common is the british flag outfit (which kumi is wearing, it matches Ayu's top hat) and the fact they are both wearing hats.

The covers aren't alike other than that. Ayu is just staring at the camera, Kuu is posing with a million "alice in wonderland" props, none of which you see in Ayu's photo.

^ This! I seriously fail to see how a bunch of people are reminded of the RnRC covers :shrug

That is the relation. They both have the same hair style. wear hats, and some type of clothes that resemble the british flag (ayu's hat, kumi's shirt). We mean they both look similar. not the covers.

lol, that's not what I've seen people saying though.

Their look is similar but this is not the first time either lady has worn that kind of wig (well, I know Kumi has before), but to say Ayu was Kumi's inspiration for the cover is a reach.

Yes! This is what I meant. Although, I think I did say that is was the outfit that I saw the relation in, not the cover as a whole. I don't think that they inspire each other/get outfit ideas from each other/share a closet/trade clothes/are best friends/more than just friends. Its just a coincidence and it just happened to pop into my head.

I wonder...how can blind people use the internet?
It seems there are a lot of them on this forum... :/

I've only seen people (including myself) referring to the fact that kumi and ayu THEMSELVES look similar, like people have stated, the hair, hat, and british flag. Those are pretty big similarities.

They just happen to use the same theme in very short time, just like they named their albums similarly (Love & Songs / Love Songs), btw, I guess one infamous singer in my country is just having "Rock 'n' Roll Palace Tour". It wouldn't be a reason to talk if they (Ayu / Kumi) wouldn't do it almost at the same time.

I want 30-45sec previews of the album songs! I hope they'll be up soon.

I really hope not!! :P
just because if avex upload the previews I will fall to listen and I don't want to!! I want this time avex to create a good atmosphere of expectations til the last week :lech more suffering, but more enjoying later!!

I wish to be like other people that can really wait til the release date without listen to any preview (song or pv) I just... can't handle it!! It's stronger than me hahahaha :lech

you shouldn't make fun of disabilities because Ayu herself has one (deaf) and I don't like those kinds of jokes, about deafness or blindness...

people on last.fm are saying the covers are exactly the same, people on JPM are saying Kumi just directly copied the RnRC cover.. so on & so on, i didn't even mean AHS.

omfg who gives a crap already if they look similar.

It doesn't mean anything except that the both of them follow the same ****, and neither of them are really leading fashion anymore.


@ero: omg I can't even imagine other sites if AHS is like this. That's why I don't even go to JPM.

what I really love about this argument, is that, even though THEY might look similar...the covers have like, nothing in common at all lol
