31st?!??! thats so freakin late!

Interesting... it got pushed back... I think they know 4th March is JUST TOO RUSHED too.

They are afraid, they are afraid... :innocent

What´s wrong with Avex lately?

thanks & March 31st's a Tue :dead2

March 4th has waaay too many single releases like ARASHI , Yuna Ito , Aqua Timez , GLAY , Hidemi Uematsu & they probably want this single to go to #1 & that will not happen if it's put out next week since ARASHI will be releasing their single Believe / Kumori Nochi , Kaisei

I'm still puzzled why March 31st ? Shouldn't it be on April 1st as that's a Wed

Radio rip of It's all Love! in downloads:

http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=86708

^ You are awesome!

Thanks a lot :D , off to download it now :)

I like the melody of It's all Love ! although somehow both sisters's voices doesn't tend to sound in synch with each other :dead2

I think I have to listen to it a few more times in order to judge it more better

Thank you so much for the radio rip!

*downloads*

It's not bad i think. kinda catchy

^I agree with you :yes I'm quite curious to see the PV.

Thanks for the rip.
It's quite a jumbled up song but I like it! misono doesn't sound as bad on this.
I'm glad it's pushed back but isn't it after the Subaru soundtrack?

o m g it's all love is so good! i love the part where it breaks down and it kind of remixes. and kuu goes "damn"

misono doesn't sound disgusting at all in the song

Huh? That's too long to wait... I want my Rule/Sparkle copies now! I've removed both Out Works & New Single from my order. Hope CD Japan will ship Rule/Sparkle tomorrow.
BTW thnx for the info 'bout FP I will try to order ASAP it with my next order with NEXT LEVEL & Sowelu's BEST album. I hope CD Japan will have at least poster and with CD+DVD cover! ^_^

And i hope there won't be any FP for these useless BEST albums. I do not want to buy them now just for special package. >_<
EDIT:
I liked preview, but full version sounds even more better! I love Chorus! So addicting! <3 Sweet! Kuu didn't disappointed me once again. Unfortunately pushing back will probably affect single sales... But maybe they will add new song?

I figured it would be pushed back, even if it wasn't to the 25th...

Well, they're voices certainly work a lot better then I ever could have though~

This song has the RANDOMEST bridge EVER. Even SHAKE IT's was less weird than this one

Yes!! The song is great! Really addicting. The beginning where they introduce themselves is too cute. I like how misono sang her name. Can wait for the PV because that breakdown is begging for some great choreography. Hmm...Can misono dance?

I still find it weird that avex choose to push the single all the way to 31st March of all days , why not 25th March as that's a Wed

31st's a Tue or is it they want the single to earn 1 day's advantage worth of sales ?

It's all Love ! been removed from CDJapan @_@ = http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/list_from_c...tml?key=259698

Whoa my first post on this forum in a while.... Anyway, It's all Love! release is just like Mirrorcle World. It'll count for the chart published on April 8th, not on the first of April..

Hope that clears things up. :)

ok so now what ? this means it's still released for 31st March or 8th April now ?

:dead2

I haven't heard the song yet D: I need to check it out soon....

Yeah, the release date is still the 31st.

hmm...

I think that their voices go together wonderfully...

I don't like the song though...the beginning sounds like just noise...and the rest of it is so random.

It's alright though...I think it's good enough for the kind of song it is.

KarenPang what I meant was It's all Love! will still be released on the 31st but won't appear on the weekly chart for that same week.

Is that clearer? I don't know why but I have a hard time explaining things.

I get it now but I find it odd the sales wouldn't be reflected on the Oricon chart til 8th

I think they do that to ensure that the single or album released the day before the new chart week starts, gets a fair chance on the charts.

Yeah that's what I was thinking, there just too much going on it all sounds like noise... They do sound amazing together though!

Hmmm... it just seems too... loud and convoluted to me. :/

I had to get used to misono's vocals in the beginning of the song :dead2

I'm more or less OK with her now although you can tell both sisters's voices doesn't seem to harmonise well together at 1st

TRICK's 4th week sales - 14,423

Total so far - 353,563

I love the song...(actually wads wrong with misono's vocals??)
The song was fresh especially with that slight quiet moment before the chorus

i love it..
but still i don't like misono's voice..
They'll performe at MS on friday
*i really hope misono doesn't ruin it :dead2*

Yea, I think misono's voice sounds excellent actually. :S
The quiet moment is so Rule/Mirrorcle World. A lot of songs seem to have it nowadays.

@emiko: I think the song is a lot better if you understand Japanese, because the chorus seems to have word play going on between the two 'sisters' from the storyline.

I don't get the sales though. Does that mean the first 7 sale days don't count? wtf?

Hahaha I'm gonna wait for a better quality...~

Instead of a 7 day sale run the single will have a 8 day sale run.

Do you understand now?

^ Like Mirrorcle World I suppose... I wonder what Avex had to pull to get that again (when it's no one's anniversary).

Guys I am SO Confused..

I ordered the overseas version of TRICK from yesasia and I received it today...

I open it, and I have two copies of disc one...

Heres a picture, I took it with my phone, but it works nonetheless.

http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/902...224000jpg7.jpg

perhaps....although I think that would just have me appreciate it more...

I just really dislike the guitar track...it's awful to listen to.

I don't think there's anything wrong with misono's vocals though. She sounds fine to me.

Just...it's like, I know what they were trying to go for with the rock stuff...and well...they did succeed...but to me, not fully because it's just a bit too obnoxious.

It's definitely easier to listen to after the first time though...the first time it was just so noisy and weird. I actually think the chorus melody is my favorite part lol

OMG I love the Song It's all Love !! want to hear it live

Is anywhere a better quality ?? the quality of the radio Rip sucks....

That is Really Great!! But I do not understand, what's the point of performing/promoting song that will be released only next month. Is it some kind of very wise avex idea, or I just do not get it... >_< Pr maybe they will release it in parts like they are doing with Ayu's releases lately.

that is weird !(O_o)
maybe they just did an error? well if one breaks you'll always have the other one ;)

my friend Lovell who texted me just now , also bought TRICK from YesAsia like yourself

he said that there're 2 discs being given to him because 1 of them contained Venus & the other doesn't

you want to go & check ? :shrug

Maybe they know they'll need A LOT of promotion for It's all love! ;)

And as for Rule, I suppose Ayu was in LA and everywhere during this period, thus she couldn't find time to do lives to promote the single.

So..It's all Love!! will have a notebook and a poster as FP items?!

Now I think I will buy it.

^ You're part of the fan club?

That's the exact reason there's two discs. I just bought my copy of Trick this week at a local Asian music store and was confused when they gave me a second disc. When I got home I checked them both out and figured out what was going on. If you look on the jewel case as well as the cd itself it has Venus written on it, but the track is missing from the actual cd. I guess the record company figured out something was wrong too late in the process and instead of recalling all the cds just issued replacement discs. It just means I have an extra copy to lend people. XD

Notebook and poster are Fan Club bonuses, not First Press.
A pity.

oh good for you I guess

mine's HK press & I ordered it from HMV HK & it doesn't have Venus CD wise , even though the CD & back sleeves said otherwise but it's ok because I don't really like that song to begin with :laugh

& the HK press of TRICK is already up for sale in the local HMV here & it's going for S$28.95 according to Lovell

& it's rated M18 :roflmao

lmao I thought it might be NC16 but it's M18 that's on par with BEST FT & BEST SS :roflmao

****!! It's SO unfair!! >_< As usual actually...

I hate it when avex does that pushing back thing. It's really annoying and I don't like it. I was so thrilled about the new Kuu single and now I can't have it yet. -.- Of course I understand if avex wants Kuu to have another #1 single, and I don't really complain if she gets that, but people on avex has been changing It's all Love's release date too many times for my liking. :D

^I think that pushing back a single when it has already been announced to the public is very unprofessional.

I mean, don´t they have executives and staff dedicated only to see how the singles/albums will do on the charts? (And knowing the love that Avex has for money, I´m sure they have legions of people to do that) Once you release the single information, unless there´s a very very big big problem or anything they shouldn´t push it back. It makes them look bad, imo. They can release the single info later if they are not sure yet of the releasing date.

Anyone know where I can find translations for the songs from TRICK? Especifically TABOO, show girl, This is not a love song, Driving and JUST THE WAY YOU ARE. Thanks!

Oh my M18 in Singapore LOL but I doubt they care... I bought Kingdom in my school uniform and it was like NC16....

This is a really nice site:
http://www.quartet4.net/?cat=190
(By the way I love Driving lyrics!)
But there are only Driving, TABOO and This is not a love song.
You can search the other lyrics with google, I suppose.

Ah. xD The 7 april talk made me confused. It's simply released a day before Oricon's week.

my TRICK has only 1 CD, and it does contain Venus :) phew

and i tear out the Green Advertising sticker and cover the M18 label :p

Yes, Driving's lyrics are great! Damn, I just love that song so much!

Thnx for the link!

It's all Love! has got #1 on chaku-uta :D

^Nice! Thanks :)

I just heard It's all Love.... Wow. It IS weird!!! It's soooo mediocre for a Kuu release! I was expecting more :(

Woah congrats to Kuu and misono!

Great News!! I hope it'll be WILDly popular in Japan and they will release it earlier!! I'm really in LOVE with it!

Like the Namie reference lol. I'm glad ppl like the song. Hopefully they'll get the #1 spot on the Oricon.

:roflmao

I'm still baffled as to why it's rated M18 in here . That's quite shocking , I thought at most NC16 but M18 ?

WHY ?! :headache

Awesome! Thanks!

Haha thnx. I hope so too. Man, they need to release it earlier!! I want it on 4th March!!

And yes, Driving lyrics is pure LOVE! I wanna PV for it!!...

Yah, it should be NC16 since Kingdom has BUT's lesbian theme too.

and TABOO has gay theme lol, Singapore hate Gheys. :o

While reading those lyrics I realized that This is not a love song is VERY personal song to me. I can really relate to that song. And I also love the other lyrics. Driving got me love it even more now that I have read the lyrics. I think I'm gonna listen to the album today since I haven't listened to it so much yet. :D It was also nice that I finally figured out what Kuu's singing about in stay with me, Once Again and Always. <3

I jsut watched DIRTY BALLROOM (because i just bought the CD from HMV Singapore!!!)

LOVE:
THE CHOREOGRAPHY...omg...its simply amazing. Shake It Up was one of the best I have ever seen, same goes for Candy and TAKE BACK (the luminescence idea is just awesome)

They totally killed Cherry Girl, D.D.D., and TABOO, with the effects...
I wish Selfish didnt had those crazy stuff in the chorus as well

It was quite an entertaining concert...im definitely gonna watch it again...the choreo is just awesome

Well if anybody is interested in TRICK's songs in romaji well...

I've always gone to this site for lyrics and it's really useful haha.

It's all Love! Music Station performance

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yAv6YNkpCg8

even if so , to rate TRICK M18 just because of the TABOO PV , it's just idiotic on the censorship board's part :grumpy

thanks for the performance, it wasn't that bad but i REALLY do not like Kuu's haircut.

HAH. I love that performance. <3

misono's vocal cracks sometimes haha.

and Kuu's hair arn't bad, but i hope she extends it for TRICK tour =/

faraway "short ver."...

And wow there's Eat You Up too. Really seems like there are some interesting artists in the soundtrack...

OMG, they look cute together..

Preview of It's all Love! PV

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDwG-xxhQ8Q

I love Kumi's wig. misono notso much, but it's cool to see her dance.

thanks

I like that it switched from a colourful setting to a dark sombre like one

I look forward to the full PV version in due time

oh gosh, i love it too! :)

lol, and hot stuff jump =D

I really hate their haircuts they have when they are in the dark set. misono looks like an Indian ... (no offense to the Indian though).

I'm quite curious to the full PV.

UHQ It's all Love! covers... ;)

CD only:

http://www.news2u.net/incidental_dsp...d=NRR200945034

that performance made me fall in love with the song...it's very high energy.

i wish kuu would have kept letting her hair get long :/

oh my god, the live perf of it's all love is so good! kumi's vocals were really good and even misono sounded good.

lots of energy too!

I don't like their wigs or the whole cute theme/set.
I liked the dark one though misono's dancing movements looked a bit awkward, it's just a preview though XD.
The song is really nice.

They sounds soooo good >_<; I love it!

i actually loved the performance. it's crazy and engrish, lol, but it's fun. i really did enjoy both kumi and misono.

omg they both did horrible. terrible vocals, outfits, everything. i can't wait until the full faraway song, i know it'll be much much better than that mess

Cool thnx!! Cover looks ugly... IMO
Thnx for the link. I hope somebody will upload HQ version soon. ^_^
Not BEST Kuu's haircut, but still looks cool. I want her to be with long hair again...

misono had soo many wrong notes lol

but I think she sounded okay...

this actually isn't that high energy for me lol maybe the people in the back and the camera man...but they kinda just stand there lol

The song is starting to grow on me...the chorus really saves it for me...the other parts are just ew though.

Good performance though. Let's hope kuu's hair is a...thin wig...LoL

(random: the "Supa Sisters" line reminds me soo much of black diamond lol)

Supersista!! I really like this song, it has a lot of energy.. but that pv preview :no misono looks strange with that wig :yes

Thanks so much for the performance
I loved it! misono sounded decent and Kuu rocked as usual. Though that hair is terrible... :( I was hoping she'd let it grow and keep those extensions on.
I really want to see the full PV!!

EDIT: The song is still staying strong at #1 on chaku-uta!

wtf kuu's hair :shakehead

Don't like the song :weep

the part before the chorus (...."wasurete aru" "wasurerarenai"...blablah) reminds me somehow of a faster version of KAMEN feat. Ishii Tatsuya
