I don't like that cover.
Covers, where you can't see the singer are always boring.

I really like the new song!

are you sure about that? because she wears the same dress for both of the video, and from what I recall, she wears a green skirt when she performed in budokan

the new song is just okay, maybe it will grow on me later

I don't like the song much yet... maybe it will grow on me later, thanks for the song :D

I only ever watch concerts once, so you are probably right. she also sang infection at Symphony Hall, so that's quite possible. ^^


and I really like the new song. chihiro in emo mode is made of epic win.

Oh.. I really like the new song. (^-^)
Hope, she will make a Video for it.

hell yeah! :love

i wonder will it leak today :o

It's up at Jpopsuki.

^ Yay! And there is also a FLAC version, but I think I'm just going with the 320 version, lol.

i hope someone can upload it here, i cant wait for it :luv2

Currently uploading a RAR to MultiUpload~

ONE OF PILLAR was #9 on the first day. This is really weird, RnRC was #3 yesterday and it sold 3034 copies, does that mean this album is only less than 3k copies? disaster :tired

TH, can you upload the new song only somewhere too? because i got all the old song already

^I really hope i mistaken it :thud

thank you for the song chiharo! did you buy the CD?

^actually, no. But I got it from a reliable source so I know it's a CD rip ^^

Thanks for the new song. (^.^)

M-04. 月光～GOD'S CHILD～ feat. 鬼束ちひろ 　[ PREVIEW ] <<<< and I totaly dislike this. It don't sounds good for me. Well... I don't like rap.. maybee it's because of this.

I like how it says feat. Chihiro Onitsuka when it's just a re-use of her old vocals from the song lol. SoulJa's voice is really raspy...and boring. Ugh hate that.

Chihiro went up to #5~

^nice, but does the sale less than 2387? since that's the #3 sales

I actually like the soulja rendition. But then again I like soulja. It reminds me of Stan + Thank You, that same sort of thing.

she's at #11

LOL her sale is keep going up and down, is this some kind of joke?

oh! i didnt realize there was a Chihiro Onitsuka thread :heart she is so amazing, im gunna have to start keeping back up with her now ^_^

月光～GOD'S CHILD～ feat. 鬼束ちひろ i don't really like this song, i like how peaceful it feels on the original song >.>

oh go ONE OF PILLARS!!!

she's #13 today

wakusei no mori is slightly growing, compared to the other song in OOP, it is one of the weakest song

I love the new Soulja song, actually...

I gave ONE OF PILLARS a listen the other day. "infection" is now my favorite Chihiro song (I'm still a little new to her).

^you're bozu, right? XD

it's really nice to give chihiro a try, she definitely deserve more fans. Infection is one of the most classic song from her. look at her live, how emotional she had and how haunting she performed this song in each live

I dearly love the new song. It's too amazing. Specially the parts where she's singing "Let me drown". SO EMOTIONAL <3 UGH I LUV U CHIHIRO. I can't wait for her next release XD

face the truth guys, chihiro was #13 at the first week and the album sold 7029 copies only :weep :weep :weep

why good artists are always underrated :(

it's not her period anymore? she was already famous enough in the mid 2000s

was watching her borderline performance, still give me goosebumps

That live is incredible.... :thud Chihiro is such an underrated artist, especially when it comes to talent. She writes all her music, doesn't she..? And her vocals, they're just so...... :thud
Seriously, that ending gave me severe chills, hah. Even better than the studio version. She gets so emotional. :heart

yap i think she can compose in any second @_@ she has hundreds of unreleased songs :thud

yah that live give me major goosebumps too, it's really freaking good

yea~i liked the Tiger In My Love performance too <33 all time fave~~

I really love her 2002 live DVD, Tiger in my Love performance was epic :D and ofcourse Infection, it was my first Chihiro song, and I loved her ever since a friend made me listen to it :D

ok i finally found this thread lol.

ONE OF PILLARS out of top 30?

but at least it sold more than 10k already ;)

yup i hope she would release new single soon xD

"Dear Chi-san,
Put down the comic books and Tori Amos albums, put some shoes on and get outside and get some fresh air and sunshine before you drive yourself half crazy. Again.
Watch the weight thing. You're cute even when you're skinny, but there might be a limit. Do they sell Cheetos in Japan? Try some. I eat them all the time.
You're at the age you should be thinking about marriage. I think you need a nice American husband.
Email me. "

i LOLed so hard when i saw this comment in one of the video in youtube :roflmao

^That's hilarious xD. Can you please post the link of the video/comment? Sorry for bothering you though.

hahaha its ok, totally not bothering me. one of my favorite performance too

LOL at the Cheetos and American husband~Email me XDD

hahahahha this is so hilarious!
email me too chi-san! lol

43, 2,015, 12,688, ONE OF PILLARS ~BEST OF CHIHIRO ONITSUKA 2000-2010~, , , 鬼束ちひろ

its not THAT bad, I think dorothy and LAS VEGAS has the same sell too

yay at least a 12k~~~not that bad like KOKIA lol..

"This chick has soo much talent. Thank god her suicide attempt was unsucessful"

found it in youtube again, chii-chan fans sure has a humour talent ;)

Though I haven't listened to everything she's done, I wish she would still make music like Memai and less like X. Even her newer ballads like Hotaru feel like something is missing..

What exactly happened to her///

Did you see that people? Personnaly I prefer the original one.

SoulJa needs to go give up on his "career" and leave masterpieces alone.

from wiki:

wooh! I didnt know there's a video of it 0_o I dont like Soulja's version though

ストロボ・EdGE: I think hotaru is one of her best song ever :thud Insomnia was too good that makes her other album sound a bit plain :rolleyes especially DOROTHY :o

Do you really think so? I totaly love Hotaru and kaerimichi wo nakushite.. I don't thik, there is something missing in this.

@Yoake
So eating disorders and attempted suicide. That explains it. :/

Maybe because of the impact of all that she's been through in the past years she's a bit different, which I'm sure you'd at least agree to that.

i kind of like the PV..artistic looking.

I've noticed her past album has good track of album track, but now, only the singles sounds good to me, the other are meh

I didn't care about that but now you say it I agree with you.

I have to agree on that, I only like Chihiro's singles, but then I seriously love them, but as for the latest albums, I can't really care about those...

Wow :thud I actually quite like this cover.. I think it's cool.. :luv2

Whoa! Intense! I wouldn't have known that was Chihiro if it didn't say. :O I like it, though. The hair is freakin' amazing. :luv2

Yes.. she's a bit different.. what don't means worse.
So.. I like her older stuff.. and the newer also.

By the way.. I don't like the Pic from that DVD Hard Red Fantasia..... it don'T fits to Chihiro.. and don't really looks like her.
Is it a new DVD???

^ Yep it's a DVD with MV's since her last album only had a CD only version :)

^just a collection of her PVs

I think she looks fierce! omg <3 The pose remind me of ayu's RnRC photobook where she wears the military outfit.

Such a major change of chihiro's image since her debut :luv2 i'm so proud of you

Oh yes, I mentioned her album because it's not all her pvs and it's in the same theme as her album :) but yeah it's just a second PV collection ^-^

Does she try togive her a new image with that pic?
It's really different from what she made before.
I don't really like her expression on it.

Woah that's a fierce cover!

Well for me this /different/ is worse.
:shrug

OMG lol.

I've been listening to Hotaru some more in an attempt to force myself to like her newer music (isn't wanting to like something annoying? :dead2), and I do like it (Hotaru and some other songs), but I still don't think it's as good as her work from 00-03 but considering everything she's been through, I still love her and I hope she can continue making music.

blame her for letting out all of her talent in her debut era :innocent

I understand how you feel. There's something different between the first three album and the last two. Even the last two has a huge gap between them.

I kinda feel like this:
Insomnia/This armor/Sugar high - :thud:love:luv2
LAS VEGAS - :cool
DOROTHY - :rolleyes

Really? Well.. so we think different in this case.
Kaerimichi wo nakushite and Hotaru are some of my favourite Onitsuka Songs. I totaly love them.

How much did LAS VEGAS and DOROTHY sell? I was trying to look up in Oricon Dorothy's sales and I couldn't find it in the weekly archives section in the top 50 so I guess it was below that :dead2.

LAS VEGAS - 46,659
DOROTHY - 19,615

according to Jpopstop

:dead2 Even these songs deserved more than that...

omg X_X

I really hope her next stuff'll sell better

OMG What an amazing DVD Cover! Chihiro is FIERCE.

The mole on her chin sort of looks like a piercing. :P
It's an awesome cover. I really like her hair this color.

my mum is soooo cute sometimes.
she told me to bluetooth hotaru to her cos she like that song.

^that song make my eyes wet too

This is an awesome performance:

Cage! been some time since i last listened..

Cage is one of the few songs by Chihiro I can't really get into :/

New fan here!
I love my Chii-chan! she has such a pretty voice!

^welcome to the tread.

Cage is a very strong track, I like the orchard hall's concert arrangement better though, but her voice was so uncontrollable in that concert =X

^ It was; she totally butchered Gekkou. But I love this performance for some reason~ I think it's her craziness and zeal.

I really love that DVD though, I love Cage, it's like more upbeat song of Chihiro, which is a nice change :)

budoukan concert was :luv2 vocal wise.

Tiger in my love is another chihiro's upbeat and catchy song too, too bad sh doesnt perform it quite frequent. While actually she never have the chance to perform oftenly :thud

Oh yes Tiger in my Love is one of my fave Chihiro songs :yes I'm happy she performed it in the budokan live, I thought it was a great performance, overall I really liked that DVD and didn't mind her vocals much, I loved it :love

It's actually kinda ironic that she has a very strong and catchy upbeat track like tiger in my love and cage. But her current "upbeat" tracks like rou no tsubasa, STEAL THS HEART, I pass by aren't that catchy anymore. ok, to be precise, the atmosphere in the current songs are so different compared to her music before the hiatus
