I like it actually, the clothes are nice and also the background. But the wig is horrendous, it doesn't suit her face. They should have taken another or none at all.

keikeiaznqueen 30th September 2009 12:59 PM

Well, to be honest, I think the wig is just too... tall. She actually looks pretty there, like, her face looks nice, and if her wig wasn't green and if the background wasn't... green as well, then maybe it'd feel nicer on the whole.

OogoeDiamond 30th September 2009 04:39 PM

On album cover all the Jasmine will be wearing is one of her wigs

sora-kara 1st October 2009 05:07 PM

^haha, it'll be a total LOVEppears cover!

keikeiaznqueen 2nd October 2009 01:18 PM

^ That means her debut album will be a big success! lol only if she's wearing a blonde wig. XD

kakumei 4th October 2009 03:10 PM

tracklist is out at a couple of shops

1. No More
2. CLUBBIN'
3. what you want?
looks like the PV was just finished being filmed the other day, even though she 'heart'ed out her face, looks like we are getting the cover's outfit.


freedreamer 4th October 2009 03:53 PM

^Classroom??

paper_doll 4th October 2009 03:55 PM

Ew, those nails D: D: I love how she did that to her face lol.

NintendoHTF1242 4th October 2009 04:56 PM

Did she not like her face that day or something? Jeez lol

Beauty4123 4th October 2009 05:10 PM

wow those nails are like claws :irked i'm interested in seeing the PV now.

Utena 4th October 2009 05:27 PM

seems she's wearing the cover outfit (gloves and we see a part of her green wig)
Could be interesting though :)

PoetGirl 4th October 2009 07:51 PM

omg, i dont like the cover. she looks like a freak. and not in a good way. omg horrible. that cover and song clubbin now make them 2 of disappointments towards jasmine.

jasmine pv better be good :)

visionfactory 4th October 2009 11:49 PM

I guess she don't want us to see how her face is gonna look like in the PV till it come out..
I LOVE THE NEW SONG :D I think I like it even more than SAD TO SAY :love

AyUta 5th October 2009 03:19 AM

^ yeah, maybe she did something cool to it or something. those nails though...ew lol.

ayu_ready? 5th October 2009 12:28 PM

I think she looks like a punk. anyway, sad to say cover wasn't awesome too :P

I care about music. and I want high sales for this girl :)

I keep hearing 'No More' everywhere I go...I heard it two days ago in a restaurant, and today it was coming from the speakers on the sidewalks when I was walking around Shibuya. :P

Utena 7th October 2009 04:26 PM

At least she's getting some promotion, that's nice.

HQ cover/promo

Chiharo 8th October 2009 05:37 PM

^it looks like her face was just cut off and glued to the pic. It looks so unnatural and photoshopped.

Actually, it's one of the worst covers I've ever seen in my life. Even worse than ayu's S/S covers.

PoetGirl 8th October 2009 05:52 PM

terrible cover >_> T E R R I B L E

Beauty4123 8th October 2009 09:13 PM

her face is cute, but overall, the cover is disappointing :( i really want to see the PV soon, though.

NintendoHTF1242 8th October 2009 10:45 PM

Ugh, terrible. I don't care what anyone says about her "standing out". Looking like an ugly cross-dresser isn't gonna work.

Meat Pao 9th October 2009 03:35 AM

Wow @ bigger covers. Looks worse than I thought.

paper_doll 9th October 2009 04:29 AM

I withdraw what I said about liking it. I like her outift though, but... yeah :/

PEARL 9th October 2009 11:40 AM

Woah what happened to her?
i just listened to 'sad to say' and it was good..

AyUta 12th October 2009 10:52 PM

well, at least her music makes up for it :shrug

kakumei 15th October 2009 03:48 PM

camo Jasmine is just :lol: :lol:

Mirai Noah 15th October 2009 06:25 PM

I hope that they put the "No more" PV preview up soon!

kakumei 16th October 2009 04:33 PM


PV, huge thanks to Jibunkattede @ YT

interesting PV :lol: I think I enjoyed it.

NintendoHTF1242 16th October 2009 04:48 PM

LOL She says NO MORE CRY!! I love Engrish.

The PV was a bit boring, and JASMINE looks so unconvincing in that green wig. Trying to look all emotional and stuff. But I want to play an unconscious person D: That role looked like it was fun.

Mirai Noah 16th October 2009 05:10 PM

I wanted a preview and here is the full PV, LOL! :D

PV was alright, but I like the song.

Utena 16th October 2009 05:12 PM

Nice PV, she looks way more pretty in this PV than in sad to say's one.
But she's acting too much, too bad.

freedreamer 16th October 2009 05:24 PM

OMG...I though black JASMINE was scary...now we have Camo JASMINE...just click some header in her site and see her split into two...lOLl

Chiharo 16th October 2009 07:50 PM

I really enjoyed the PV. It was alright.

Beauty4123 17th October 2009 01:50 AM

i thought it was actually a decent PV. JASMINE looked pretty even with the outfit, lol. interesting concept for the PV, though. :P i don't really understand it, but oh well :laugh

paper_doll 17th October 2009 04:39 AM

I liked the video. Not the most exciting thing ever, but it's nice to look at. It has a very clean(?) look to it. I think the outfit comes across slightly better here than on the cover lol, but the song reminds me too much of sad to say.

love in music 17th October 2009 04:44 AM

i can't like the PV.. she just can't be taken seriously wearing that outfit and having that hair. it looked like a parody video or something. and the HQ cover is the worst cover i've seen, hands down. it's even beating ayu's (miss)understood cover in grossness for me :dead2
i still like the song though

PoetGirl 17th October 2009 05:20 AM

yay, pv is finally here. i really like it. she's so pretty, who could tell, i thought she's terrible looking when i saw her with that horrible wig in the cover, but in the pv she looks really good. i like the concept of it. its so good.

jiarongisme 17th October 2009 09:43 AM

I'd really love the PV if not for the fail wig and JASMINE's bad acting. :P The concept is cool though. :yes

nemesisyume 17th October 2009 10:53 AM

I like her style in that cover photoshoot but the cover itself could be better


howtousesexy 17th October 2009 01:32 PM

no one noticed the kuu and utada look-a-likes at 1:15?

Yoake 17th October 2009 01:47 PM

I've just finished to watch the pv. No more is better than her first song even if it's basic and random again. I love the green and I think the pv is boring.

howtousesexy: I noticed that but only for Utada one.

haha

i like the pv.
i am really excited for her debut album :)
dont keep us waiting too long

Yoake 17th October 2009 10:58 PM

Just one question: which color will she use for her next pv?

I vote blue! :lech

http://i36.tinypic.com/j6pd14.jpg

girl at the top, what do you think? i sorta get an older kuu vibe a little

Beauty4123 18th October 2009 12:18 AM

i also saw an aoi miyazaki look alike. and an aira mitsuki one, too :laugh towards the end of the video. maybe it's just me :P

AyUta 18th October 2009 01:03 AM

i noticed both the kumi and utada one :laugh

anyways, the PV was boring :P i love the song though.

PoetGirl 18th October 2009 01:12 AM

i think its all your imagination. i dont see any kuu, nor hikki nor anyone else.

Hazuki 18th October 2009 01:38 AM

^ each person views something differently. :)

anyway, i love the song, pv's alright, but i'm not feeling that wig D:
its just the way it looks, not the colour but.. eh :no

i'm highly anticipating her debut album <3

Omg, she DOES look like old-school Kuu! The girl at the bottom right hand corner looks like Nocchi from Perfume for some reason. :P

ayu_ready? 19th October 2009 08:34 PM

I really like the PV! it's somehow reminscent of sad to say, maybe because of camera angles, and the wigs are connected also,lolz
I liked her outfit, but not the wig

I like how PV has celeb clones, whether it has really or doesn't, rofl :)

I like it that she somehow has concept, anywayz, maybe not that grrreat ;)

keikeiaznqueen 20th October 2009 02:46 PM

Has everyone seen this picture of JASMINE on last.fm?
http://www.last.fm/music/Jasmine/+images/36300253

Where's it from? She looks cute there.

ayu_ready? 20th October 2009 03:24 PM

I wonder if she's gyaru
she looks reminscent somehow...mm

I think it's just her photos! but thanks for link! :)

AyUta 21st October 2009 03:15 AM

aw, she looks so tiny and cute <3

yuki_unmei 21st October 2009 05:19 AM

i like the concept of the pv, but wow the look-alikes are distracting.
i saw Utada, Kuu, Aoi Miyazaki and Tomoya Nagase :laugh

and her wig looked more like plastic than hair

Beauty4123 23rd October 2009 07:52 PM

jiarongisme 24th October 2009 01:54 AM

Not bad! I hope that this single sells well. Is it up for legal downloads yet? I wonder how it's doing on the downloads charts.

AyUta 24th October 2009 05:52 AM

yeah, not bad at all. i hope she does well <3

glowlydays 24th October 2009 12:32 PM

don't know if anyone posted this, but these are current 'sad to say' sales:
179 178 ***,348 *30,537 *11 JASMINE 「sad to say」

30k, that's awesome!

sora-kara 25th October 2009 07:09 PM

has anyone seen an english translation of no more?
im wondering if its related to sad to say.

sad to say starts with "cry cry..."
and no more starts "no more cry..."

just wondering if the lyrics are related beyond that.

Chiharo 25th October 2009 07:23 PM

^There is the translation of No More in here: http://www.jpopasia.com/lyrics/33949...p/no-more.html

I really love the lyrics.

OogoeDiamond 25th October 2009 08:04 PM

keikeiaznqueen 26th October 2009 12:01 PM

Thanks to the link to the translation! I love the lyrics.

And as for the live-- is it not the Ne-Yo one? Probably not. It doesn't seem like a TV-live though, from the previous post about it. Jasmine's too new to have her own private concert since she doesn't have enough songs. I'm curious as to what it is. XD I wanna see her perform Sad to Say!

woah, she looks great and sounded awsome. i want to see the whole performance <3

keikeiaznqueen 27th October 2009 09:05 AM

Omgomgomg it's only a clip!! She sounds so good live, I wanna see the full performance. :( I wonder when she's gonna get a TV-live.

Btw, I read the interview on barks and Jasmine talks briefly about the colour-themes she uses for her singles and what she will use in her next singles. (Pink for Sad to Say and green for No More. And btw translations are not 100% faithful to the original Japanese text.)

Quote:

──今後、何色の曲を作っていきたい?

JASMINE: 次は紫です! もう決まってるんです、紫と黄色って。いつもこんな調子で、曲のイメージ カラーが先に決まるんですよ。今回のジャケットは緑なんですけど、これも曲ができる前から色のイメージだけ は決まってて、「ピンクの次は緑がいいです!」って言ったんです。緑って思ったのは、特に深い意味はないん ですけど、なんとなく。あたし、色を言うのが好きなんで(笑)。
What colours do you want to use for your upcoming songs?

Jasmine: The next colour is purple! It's already decided that it will be purple and yellow. It's always done like this: we choose the image colour for the song first. The single jacket this time is green, and this colour has also been chosen prior to making the song. I had said, "Following pink with green should be good!" Although the use of green doesn't have a specially deep meaning, I like the use of colours. (laugh)

Quote:

──じゃあ次のイメージカラーは紫。

JASMINE: そのつもりです。で、そうやってどんどん自分のパレットに色を増やしていく感じで、いろ んないい曲をいっぱい作って増やしていけたらなって思ってます。
So, your next image colour will be purple.

Jasmine: That is my intention. Well, I feel like I will steadily increase the colours in my palette as I make more good songs.

Oh, last edit: in one of her interview answers, she mentions that her real name is "Asumi".

Quote:

──お、カッコイイ! そんな音楽大好き全開モードになったJASMINEの第2弾シングル「N o More」は、人に理解されないイラ立ちや葛藤を抱えながらもプライドを持って進んでいこうとする、前向き な想いが込められたナンバーね。

JASMINE: はい。歌詞的には、昔あたしはハチャメチャで……自分ではそう思ってなかったんですけど 、周りはハチャメチャだと思ってたみたい。そのくせ「歌手になりたい」とか言って、「ビッグマウスだよね」 みたいな。で、そうやって言われた言葉とか、言った人に対してイライラしてたんですけど、よく考えたらイラ イラしてるのは、実際まだ何もやってなくて何も言い返せない自分に対してだなと思ったんです。JASMINEは歌手になりたいのに、(本名の)あすみが示しのつかないことをしてるから、JASMINEをダメにしてる、みたいな。だから結局は自分なんだなと思って。
(本名の)あすみ is something like "(real name) Asumi". She's talking about herself as two different people... JASMINE and Asumi. (Kinda reminds me of Ayu and Ayumi Hamasaki.)

love in music 27th October 2009 11:59 AM

i kind of like "what you want?". her english sounds really good too

NintendoHTF1242 27th October 2009 12:24 PM

She had a few mishaps during sad to say, but she still sounds great :3

paper_doll 27th October 2009 02:33 PM

Hopefully she doesn't mean purple and yellow together x_x Ew.

New single's really good. My only problem with it is that I still think No More sounds too much like sad to say. But I loved the other two tracks :yes

freedreamer 27th October 2009 05:13 PM

purple and yellow! wow..ok hahha...more colours? well..as long as their "good" songs...she rocks live. lots of attitude. I tot she covered up but it was just from those pics hahah

Mirai Noah 27th October 2009 06:31 PM

The live clip sounds good!

I hope her purple wig is nicer than her green one :P

visionfactory 27th October 2009 07:50 PM

Really looking forward to next single cover now!! I love purple :D

koumori 27th October 2009 08:09 PM

Ah, I love this thread ^-^

BTW has anyone got NO MORE in mp3 form? >< On the download thread it's only on .zip form and I can't listen to it in that file format D:

Please help~ >3<;

yuki_unmei 28th October 2009 12:49 AM

she sounds great live<3

thanks keikeiaznqueen for translating those parts!
that's interesting about choosing colors before making songs.
Asumi~ i wonder what her last name is.

Meat Pao 28th October 2009 12:06 PM

No More debuted at #15 today :(

You're welcome!

And nice looking sales ranking so far. Hope this sells more than Sad to Say. How's it on the download chart?

Oh, found it:

On the ringtone chart, it's #28. It rose from #30 yesterday. Last week it ranked #19 weekly. Sorry if it's been mentioned before.

On the chaku-uta full song chart, No More ranked #5 last week. She's doing better on the download chart. #10 today on chaku-uta full. :D

OMG, and btw I just spotted Sad to Say on the Chaku-uta full song chart. It ranked #48 last week!

That's actually something we learned in art class that looks good together, Yellow & Purple, Blue & Orange, and Red & Green, never understood it much though.

They're on opposite sides of the color wheel which makes them complementary colors, if I remember correctly.

Who knows, she might pull it off well.

I got my copy of the single today! I love the digipak especially the quality of the material used for it... though the cover doesn't look any better.
