- - [Koda Kumi] 137th Thread - 4 TIMES for summer (http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=110014)

4 HOT WAVE
4 TIMES
3 SPLASH
GOSSIP CANDY
FREAKY
MOON

For me, this is the order from best to worst summer single. Maybe when I see the PV's 4 Times become my all time favorite single by kuu, but it's pretty hard to surpass Ningyo-hime, Juicy and I'll be there... hehehe

I love MOON from these singles the most :laugh Although it doesn't contain any of typical summer songs, I like all of the tracks it has, unlike the other singles.

I'm a fan of MOON also, even though I've listened to Once Again just when it came out. But Moon Crying and Lady Go! are awesome

IN THE AIR sounds much better than I was expecting, I love the preview :D

I am so in love with IN THE AIR. :)

Need.
4 times.
Now.

SOMEONE HELP ME I NEED AIR TOO FAST OMG YOURE NOT ALOONE

according to my friend, Michael, the title is "Ai wo tomamenaide" and it means "Love can't be stopped". Its tie-in is from Last Virgin movie. That's the same dorama for which anata dake ga was the theme song, so that's why the third version, the "movie version" contains anata dake ga on it, and it'll feature a different arragement.

TOO.MUCH.AMAZINGNESS

omg that sounds amazing!! yayayay exciteddd...

But 4 TIMES isn't even out yet LOL!

we're talking about the 12 singles girl, we don't need to wait that much :innocent

Love the clip of in the air. So summery... Yet... Not overly so. Just a touch of it. The title fits it perfectly! :)

IN THE AIR sounds promising !! and OMG a new single already, yay !!!!!!!!

Wow! Another single already! Hopefully Kuu's getting plenty of rest :yes

And yes, I meant american pop when I was saying I was hooked on western music lol. XD I never mean japanese music to be western because it isn't. When I say "western music", I mean everything that's released from US and onwards :D

Sorry, that was my own fault. I read what you wrote wrong and seriously confused myself.

As someone who wasn't totally crazy about the Suki de x 3 single, I can't say I'm too hyped for the new single. I don't really want a J-Pop ballad. I assume its a J-Pop ballad because it has the same tie-in, so I'm hoping to be pleasantly surprised with a different sounding ballad, or a song that is not a ballad at all!

OMG.. 4 TIMES isn't being released yet and soon another new single :thud
I thought she mentioned that You are not alone won't be released as single/album

Wow you didn't like Anata Dake ga? I think that Anata Dake ga is one of Kuu's most godly ballads. It's just, flawless and perfect.

Wait!! What?! :shakehead

Wow... A new single already...

I think she said there were no plans yet for its physical release... I though it'd just come with the album, Kuu surprised me

WOW!! seems like its gonna be a repeat like 4HOTWAVE-YumenoUta
a power pack single then a ballad single :)

I think "Ai wo tomanaide" translates to "Don't stop the love"/"Don't stop loving"?

But wow, all I can say is Kuu just pumps them out haha.

WOW another single only a month after the big 4TIMES!!

That's incredible.

I think "Ai wo tomamenaide" will be the epic ballad of this year!!

2006 will be repeated?!?!??
