GIRL U KNOW WAT I MEAN :P

^:laugh

I'm sick of her of crying tho. Everytime I read something about her, it's about her crying. Ugh, I've had enough of the tears. :irked

wow :dead2
If I were singing that song, I would probably cry too. I find Kumi songs resonate with me so that I would cry singing a lot of her ballads...and I do :D

I spotted something on Crunchyroll that makes me need to ask a question

What's this "Moon Crying(Story Version)" PV?

^I have no idea. :shrug


I-I-I was talking about the whole scandal incident. :bgiggle I mean, I can see her crying to a song like Moon Crying..so Ihave no problem with that. It's just the whole scandal incident crying that I'm sick of. :grumpy It's not good or healthy for her to keep being sad and crying about the incident. I just want her to move on. :)

i think that story version is on the DVD of MOON.

Well she's stopped apologizing and stuff so I think she's pretty much over it and moving on. Although I can understand her being so upset about it, if I were her I'd be upset too. She didn't mean any harm and look what happened 2 her. I'd actually be a little pissed lol :P

anytime people & I didn't notice the words on her T shirt til Kristel pointed it out , thanks !

Review for grow into one folks!!!
http://destinyline.wordpress.com/200...-studio-album/

hope you enjoy :)

-It's Kumi and Hikki review week!!! so expect more coming this week!!-

talking about the scandal...
I saw a documentary about japan tonight and they were saying that women in japan were having kids really late now because they are working
and someone said that after a certain age it was hard to get pregnant...

but the thing is.. I couldn't stop thinking of kumi & the scandal when they said that XD
I know I'm bad...XD but they were repeating it and I couldn't stop myself thinking ''do they mean 35 years old? :lech''

ok ... I know... I'm bad.....-hides- XD

^Tbh, whenever I think about or hear pregnancy, I think about Kuu. :tipsy So ur not alone minna! :bchuck

:laugh

:hi5 Luv!

couldn't stop thinking of the 35 years old & rotten fluid...XD

LOL shh, you're gonna make Kuu cry some more!

Thanks for this great review :D

thanks triple D!!
I think tomorrow's will be secret, haven't quite decided yet :)

That is true.

Well, it's very hard to cry and sing.
But her crying seemed kind of.... fake.

Maybe Kuu should listen to No More Tears (Namie Amuro)? :shrug

I know, I thanked myself too.

LOL, this scandal should be gold in history of J-Pop.

I think that kumi got herself a scar for her entire life, a lot of people (most of the non fans ones) that will think kumi, this incident will get up on their minds...

For MOON's sales (which are not amazing as well)

First week: #2 88,309
Second week: #5 19,251
Total Sales: 107,560

I think it will reach around 135,000...
Japan don't like Fergie anymore (unless if Fergie is the only reason people bought it)? =P

Why doesn't Japan like Fergie anymore?

Yes, I want her to reach the sales around BUT / Aishou at least...
And at least she's still in the top 5!!!
Maybe a-nation will help promote the single even further???? We can only hope...:yes

And hey, she's at number 2 today!!!!!!!!!! :)

the sales are not bad so far , at least it has attained gold status

I have no idea , what makes you think Japan doesn't like Fergie ?

*nods head*

maybe when a-nation rolls out , sales will hopefully pick up

Yes but usually Monday's sales (that are shown in today's positions) are the lowest of the week and the position doesn't indicate at all the next weekly positions =\

true, she'll get pushed down by the new releases buttt, it gives her a nice beginning number for the week - better than something lower to start off the week

That's also true :yes
Though even without new releases it would be pushed down by other singles with way lower drops... just to add =P
I hope it will be able to sell more than BUT/aishou!

*nods head*

I have a feeling that MOON will plumment even more this week seeing that tomorrow ARASHI , Shuchushin will be releasing their new songs

Argh, BUT / Aishou remained at number 6 weekly for it's third week and I would love for her to stay in the top 10 weekly. Maybe she'll be able to hang out in the top 10/top 15 tomorrow and rise slowly during the week.

hmm maybe

it all depends on how the situation turns out to be then

well Moon Crying apparently is #1 on Rechocoku sooo something's going right :)
And apparently she's doing a special live with Thelma and ET-KING on 8/28 at Osaka-Jo Hall

^ Another Live? I Bet It'll be on her next album. haha.

Anyway, If Anyone's Interested, I have Koda Screencaps that I made from my DVD's. I made a thread in Graphics or whatever but noone seems to be interested. Maybe cus I didn't upload them yet, lol. I was going to wait til someone requested them and then upload them but whatever.

because the O she did wasn't cool :no

:laugh




the sales are pretty low
that single won't sell a lot :no


quality of it or scandal? maybe both....

for me I think it will be the quality of MOON cos the songs on there doesn't really reflect on what a big bang of a 'comeback' for her after the scandal sadly

I wonder if this single can outsell Ai no Uta. I liked that ballad so much more.

Can you see MOON reaching to 140,000? =P

Yea. it'll prolly be a special bonus track or something.

Thank you for the screencaps! :shughug Man, I've been wanting some Kuu screencaps for a while now. Now, I can try to make me a C4U siggy! :shimmy

@ayumisrael: Tbh, I can see her getting around 140k point. I mean, I don't expect her to fall outta of the top 20 for a few more weeks now. She's already #2 and I don't expect the new releases to totally kick her outta the top 10 that easily. So I'm cheering that she does well and hit that point. :yes

Because ayumisrael said it.

LOL it was just a guess =P

Luv ~Venus~ - kumi needs to be lucky not to have big drops.
It not only depends on other releases or positions but this single individually as well. If she won't have another big drops so it most likely can sell over 140,000 but if this week will continue another big drop it won't =P
The #2 of today doesn't really indicate anything yet, but the next 2-3 days positions will.

It seems like there won't be much other releases that will knock it down as you said XD
But you know yourself how dissapointing single sales can be like #1 - 30,000 #2 - 20,000 #3 - 8,000 (just example) =P

Her next single should better be a kick ass single.

^We got the A-side ballad so hopefully a sexed-up song and hopefully not a cute song XD

^Yes, I agree.
I'm kinda fed up with her ballads and cute songs. I want a song like JUICY or Ningyo Hime

yep it's fact that the single isn't..hmm how could I say that...
I thought that the 'comeback' single would be surprising//amazing


that single is good but not the best single ever for a comeback

I thought the single was REALLY good. I mean it wasn't as good as 4 Hot Wave but it was better than FREAKY.

And yes, now that we've got the leading ballad, I think it's time for the leading dance song!!!

ah you see, me I think the opposite. I prefer FREAKY. I think FREAKY is better than Moon
everyone has it's own taste ;)


yep we need the leading dance song now :yes

huh, well you're right, everyone has their own opinions. I liked FREAKY but I felt the single as a whole wasn't varied enough. Like all the B-sides were cute and even though I liked them, I would have liked something else...
4 Hot Wave had the awesome songs and amazing storyline!!
MOON was great cause it had the variety again :)

But we totally need another hot song...I really wish we had another Crazy 4 U!!!

i agree! the new leading song needs to be an upbeat, fun song with a great pv!
no more standing around with a camera going around, kuu needs to Get Up & Move!! and Shake It Up :yes

I agree!!!
I know Kuu is trying to stray away from the whole ero-kakkoi thing but it doesn't mean she still can't be sexy. Get Up & Move!! was a good example of a hot dance song without going to that level.

instead of grinding up against men and feeling their c*cks, she could do some sexy dance choreography instead. there's ways to be sexy without being sl*tty, and i think thats what she wants to stray away from. while i think moon crying is a beautiful song, seeing her perform it over and over is kind of boring... i love her high-energy performances the most.

4 Hot Wave was really a great single with variety :yes
it's true that FREAKY hasn't really variety, but I love all the songs // their summer feeling when you listen to them // the happiness it gives

yes Moon has variety it's true {but the song with furby fergie....I would have prefered to never hear it...XD}



yes we need a great up-beat song!
Amai I think the same thing -
I've always thought that kumi could be sexy without being ero.

at first, i absolutely HATED ningyohime, because i'm not really a fan of rock music. but after forcing myself to listen to it, i began to fall in love with it. i love every single song on 4 hot wave, i thought it was an amazing single. to be honest, i barely ever listen to sora on FREAKY, it's kind of forgettable to me, but i LOVE freaky, run for your life and girls.

Yep yep :hi5
As much as I love JUICY, she doesn't need to go ero-kakkoi if she doesn't want to. Under was a good job of being sexy too, although I wish there was a little more dancing...:D
Something along the lines of her choreography from secret would be good. I LOVE it for PVs like Trust you, Selfish and Hot Stuff. I think another song like "Trust you" would be perfect :love

@poshtitute: EXACTLY!!! sora is the one I don't really listen to [although I do still like it] but the other three tracks are MUCH better. And I LOVE LOVE Kuu's rock songs. Selfish is one of her best songs IMO and Ningyo-Hime rocks too [no pun intended].

yes exactly!
but I think she's having more control on what she wants to do
nope?
so she could say ''sexy but no ero.''

^ i loved Selfish all along, and Ningyohime grew on me and i love it lots now! the PV for it was really well done, too. the best part was the guy juggling dildos.:roflmao

WTF? I must've missed that :laugh
*goes to watch the PV* :D

lol
Selfish was AMAZING!!! One of my favs on that album :yes
And Kumi looked OMFG FANTASTIC in that video with the black and blonde highlights. I liked the little dance during the second chorus :)

i loved her black and blonde hair in ningyohime soo much omg.

omg that hair was <3333
it was her best hair ever I think

I loved it so much

Yeah it was gorgeous, she needs to go back to that hairstyle sometime again. I pretty much loved it during the secret hair the entire time!!!

oh yes! she need to go back to that hair!
it was so awesome :luv2

I actually like her hair now though too :)
When she was in the That Ain't Cool PV and was lying down, it was somewhat hard to tell she had short hair [like if you only saw that seen] and it reminded me of her Butterfly hair, which I loved!

:yes
She needs to go back doing such great albums too!

yep her actual hair is great too :yes

but my fav, is really ningyo hime hair

Uhh yeah, apparently I missed that too...

EDIT: Those are totally wooden doll legs!! Sheesh.. :rolleyes :D

But WOW did Kuu ever look stunning in this PV. Man... I still wish she had that style. :( I hadn't seen that PV in forever.

Wtf...DILDO?! :usaidwat Amai...are u lying to us?! :laugh

lol, that was poshtitute hehe
And they were pieces of dolls I believe he was juggling :D

Oops! Sorry! :lmfao I came in at the wrong time.


As for FREAKY vs MOON, FREAKY wins hands down. I think Freaky didn't even need to have b-side as the song was the best track on the whole single. I luv that song so much. Ugh, at this point, it beats BUT! :bchuck

:eek B L A S P H E M Y ! ! !

^OMG, how can u guys not like FREAKY more than BUT. I mean for peak sake, it's so much more repeat worthy than BUT. I constantly have Freaky on repeat. I luvs BUT too but Freaky just dominates it. :yes

^ BUT pwns FREAKY x10000000000000000000 :D

^Just please tell me how is that? What don't u like about Freaky? I wanna know this...seriously! :mischief

^ Don't get me wrong, I like FREAKY, but I like BUT more. It's so addictive.

Who would even compare MOON vs. FREAKY? That is such a one-sided battle, obviously going to FREAKY.

^MOON just had tracks that didn't fit the 4 element phase. I mean, which song was the fall song? :think Lady Go! and Once Again were like summer songs. Moon Crying is the winter song and TAC..I guess was the spring song. :laugh

I thought BUT alone should have just been a one A-side single. Aishou (I think that's right) was a complete turn off for me. It seemed so lost. I think that clue just should have made two club songs instead of just one club and one ballad. =/ Why do artists think that's okay to do that? :irked

Okay, this is driving me crazy... WHAT in the world is Kuu saying at the very beginning of "That Ain't Cool?" 'Cause it sounds like "Fergie fart..." :laugh

^ I think Kuu is saying "Fergie ferg"
:P

So... MOON is supposed to have four songs that feel like each SEASON? I thought it was about elements... wind, fire, water, earth? Hmmm...

And they do the "one club song, one ballad" thing to get that awesome variety everyone is always screaming about. :D

OOOOHHH okay... is that her nickname or something? XD

^You know what? You are so right! Sorry! *Damn sora2522* :tipsy

@task: She said Fer (far). Well, that's what I heard. :bchuck

Yepp. "I'm Fergie Ferg, and me luv u long time!"

^:roflmao (You wrong for that Triple D!)

I'm still thinking this 4 elements thing will go into the next singles...cause if not I don't really understand how the other songs are pertaining to that whole theme...

and OMG, BUT >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> FREAKY
then again BUT > lots of things :)

and I totally think MOON > FREAKY but 4 Hot Wave >>>>> both singles

don't tell me I found somebeody who prefers FREAKY over MOON ??
Luv! :hi5

I'm not lonely!!!!

TASKI ~ :laugh fergie fart...well who knows what happened when she did that O thing :innocent :rolleyes

^ LMAO MINNA!!! Seriously... I mean, certain yoga poses will do that to ya. :laugh

Oh, and I DEFINITELY prefer FREAKY over MOON! :yes

:roflmao
oh my...isn't the FURBY farting too? XDDDDD
so it totally fits now what you heard :laugh


:hi5 for FREAKY ;D

FURBY?! My sister had two of those things that she absolutely HAD to have when they were popular and I HATED THEM. I think you're right though about them farting. I think that was one of the "things" they did. :laugh What was the point of those things anyways?! To teach them how to say bad words?

Anyway, I really like the beat of "TAC" and all, but I guess I was just hoping for different lyrics? The "having your cake and eat it too" thing seems so played out, doesn't it?

:roflmao
I had one XDDDD and my mom was using it to wake me up when I was young :grumpy
believe me - not fun at all :shakehead

furby = fergie definitly :laugh


oh that part of the lyrics is just so weird !!!!!!! XDDDD

hahahaha, yeah the lyrics were...all right
But I did really like it when she said "I'm not your mommy so say sayonara!" - GOLD!

^I liked it when Kuu said, "Did you really think I was that easy?" <~It owned fergie's 1st verse! :bchuck

Well kumi was kinda that easy for letting Ferbie ferb to outake her in the song ;)

I love the "I'm not your mommy so say sayonara" part as well :laugh

LOL "A gaken have a cake and eat it too".

:laugh

well even if I don't like the song I have to admit that...it's really funny :roflmao

OMG, you noticed her saying that too. :laugh (whalla! new engrish word! :hi5) That's another fave part of the song. :heart

^Kuu is an inventor!

YES!!! WHALLA!! "A guh can have hah cake an eat it too!"

well, I like the 1st part when she said 'Did u really think that I was really that easy?'
Like L~V said, it's so cool ...I dunno, I love kuu's part more than fergie, coz kuu's voice is just somethin' ^^

I agree, Kuu's part > Fergie's part
But I did like when Fergie said "when you hurt me you really hurt yourself!"

OK thanks to you guys I've listened to "That Ain't Cool" so much that it's my new favorite track on MOON :laugh
