eh UNLOCKED is not as bad as I thought it might be :O there're a couple of album tracks that I loved the previews & turns out that the full versions from these previews sound great !
I adore Hit the Road , Shake it Off , PARADE , S.O.S -Watashi Sagasanaide Kudasai- <3 LAST CODE is definitely a nod to UNLOCKED that's for sure ;D ah so can't wait to get UNLOCKED later tonight *O* |
actually watching the live now, and towards the middle they start chopping every performance that actually made it on the disc to a minute and a half or a little bit over.
damn, when are they going to get better at editing her lives and not cutting so much, especially by making it so obvious. what a disappointment, I should stop buying her lives all together, they're not worth it. |

So, I gave UNLOCKED chance, I was never crazy about Meisa 'cause her tracks sounded the same to me, lots of autotune and lack of creativity but I actually liked UNLOCKED, its a solid album. Happy to be me is the best track for me in the album, and I also liked LAST CODE, PARADE, Woman's worth and Shake it off.

If anyone's interested, I translated Take Me Away:

I received UNLOCKED today from HMV Japan ^___^
http://i40.tinypic.com/33oqzcl.jpg And I did scans of Kuroki which's included in the booklet which I must add , the CD + DVD case that was used is much thicker than the normal CD + DVD's that I have which I suspect it's to house the booklet but anyway :O Spoiler:
:love :love :love I understand that the pics included for both CD + DVD's differs & since I only bought A , it will be good if someone were to scan/add on which're the photos only the B edition had |

@Karen: Thank you so much for sharing these pics!
Meisa is such a beauty! She seriously is one of the most gorgeous women I've ever seen! :smitten |

and as I thought, I'm just mehhhh on the album. It's so standard and safe AKA boring. |
I liked Meisa with the release of hellcat. I still only just liked her with SHOCK. I LOVED her when ATTITUDE was released. 5-FIVE- was a bit meh. LOL! made me excited for MAGAZINE. I was excited for MAGAZINE. I was let down. I was like, meh, with One More Drama, my interest reached ATTITUDE heights with Wired Life, and my excitement was further added with Woman's Worth / Breeze Out. I LOVE UNLOCKED. Much better than MAGAZINE, up to ATTITUDE standards in my opinion.
Kudos to her. UNLOCKED was a fantastic album, and she got married to Jin Akanishi at JUST the right time. She is clever. |

She frankly can wear a rubbish bag & you still can say she looks great :laugh Hard to believe I've been her fan for 3 years + now , from her very 1st mini album hellcat til now but it has been great , I'm not complaining :love She doesn't & obviously have the best voice around but with top notch people that she has gotten to work on her stuff (such as U-Key zone & Momo "mocha"N) , she knows what works & doesn't work for her I sound so much like a stan of hers :innocent |
Just listened to the album and I didn't enjoy any more or less than 'MAGAZINE' in my humble opinion. Overall, the album was good. ;)
Favorite tracks: -Shake it Off -LAST CODE (her vocals sounded nice in this song :yes) -PARADE -曖昧で贅沢な欲望 |

Though, I also feel that as long as she's famous, there will always be the possibility that she'll come back to music - even if it means starting from square one again. :yes |
Fell out of the Top 20 on the daily charts today. Doesn't look like Meisa will pass 10k. Most likely around 7-8k.
|
^ Shame, I think its worth more than 10K. Top 10, I hope, but unlikely. NINKI, YOU FAILED US!
I also thought the scandal would increase sales. With AKB48's Beginner MV scandal, and Sayaka's dating scandal, Beginner became AKB's first million selling single. I thought that more people would buy it as she is pregnant, but whatever. Japanese people are weird. |
As soon as an artist get's pregnant/married their sales usually drop... It has the opposite effect, doesn't increase their sales at all. Examples, Namie Amuro super decrease in sales when she got pregnant, Hitomi, no one cares about her anymore, Ai Otsuka, sales plummeted as well.
Not gunna like I think the album deserves to sell low, it really is just mediocre, nothing compared to Magazine |
UNLOCKED is a pretty nice album, but I think I like MAGAZINE better. The songs were catchier, imo.
My favorite tracks so far are Happy to be Me, Shake it Off and Take Me Away. I haven't received my copies yet, so thanks for the scans Karen! She looks gorgeous as usual <3 And I totally love the back cover! :heart |
hopefully nobody minds me in starting a new thread of Kuroki
thread 8 here we go 8D |
