OMMMMG~ shimomura loves kuu, but not ayu i guess :laugh

guys.. a cute wallpaper by Kumi duff if you wish it ;D

he does a way better job with kumi than he does ayu... but then again, that could be blamed on the model and not the photographer. :innocent

thanks for that site, cutie! i think this will finish up the lyrics list :)

hmm, i was just looking at that kazuyoshi hates ayu and identity posted a bunch of stunning pics of ayu that he shot... i love the ones where she looks natural and normal, not the ones where she's trying desperately to look like a 10 year old girl or to be some kind of sex kitten, both things which she's not.

you're welcome, juicy! glad i could help.

TRICK's still selling

7, 387,544, TRICK, , 倖田來未

that's pretty cool. i wonder if the tour DVD would help boost sales a bit? since it's being broadcasted on the same date as Kingdom was, i wonder if the release date will be similar. Kingdom tour release date was September 24.

It's so frustrating!

It's challenging enough that she has first press bonus tracks on her albums but does she really need first press bonus tracks on her singles too?? :P

And I love your Kuullection! It looks like you're aiming to get everything. ;)

ugh i knoww! i don't have LAST ANGEL because the cd only comes with a postcard. i don't have WON'T BE LONG cd only because it comes with a sticker. the other ones i'm missing are all regular editions, so once i get those two i'll fill in the gaps. koi no tsubomi and 4 hot wave cd only, and i'll have you-3 SPLASH complete! i haven't bought the Black Cherry tour DVD yet because i have the .iso on my computer. once i get the BEST ~second session~ first press DVD and the BEST ~first things~ deluxe limited edition, i'll get that one and have all her tour dvds...

it's kinda fun hunting for them though, i get really excited when i get something new. i wanna buy a really nice scanner so i can make proper scans of everything.

double a-side?! physical thing better be hot, lol. and thank god there's gonna be 2 PVs :D

her release pattern feels somewhat reminiscent of Black Cherry's singles

single a-side
koi no tsubomi
It's all Love (double a-side but faraway was basically shoved to the side)

multiple a-side
4 hot wave
3 SPLASH

double a-side
yume no uta/futari de...
Alive/Physical thing

maybe the next will be the Lady Gaga collaboration :laugh it'll be the WON'T BE LONG. although if that doesn't happen, she still has the DREAM collab coming out in september that i forgot about!

ECSTASY is the #5 most downloaded PV... looks like Japan still loves sexy kuu!

Lick me, Hashire!, Butterfly, Moon Crying, Cherry Girl, BUT, Aisho, anytime, you, ima sugu hoshii and TABOO are also in the top 100.

Normally I'd be annoyed at that remark, but I kinda think you're right. :laugh Not that Ayu's a bad model or anything, but just that Kazuyoshi does do awesome work, but isn't Ayu the one who "visualizes" her PVs/covers/concerts/etc.? :innocent :laugh Sunrise/Sunset is terrible but I don't think it's Kazuyoshi's fault... but let's not bring that discussion in here. :D

Kuu's covers have been consistently awesome for a while now, except for maybe stay with me, so let's hope she keeps that up.

stay with me was her only release since 2008 that WASN'T shot by kazuyoshi :laugh

^woah seriously? wth :laugh

I did not know THAT...hmm.

yup... since anytime. i don't have LAST ANGEL so i can't check that, and ai no uta was shot by leslie kee. kazuyoshi also shot BUT, FREAKY, and BEST ~BOUNCE & LOVERS~

i think i'm becoming a fan of his!! :laugh

Kingdom tour DVD covers and TRICK tour pamphlet were also shot by him...

^ Cutie, your collection is awesome! I'm jealous :P

Awwww, I liked those covers :)

omg did anyone notice there's english lyrics printed in the koi no tsubomi booklet?

i really like the covers for stay with me! they are one of my favorites of hers. same with anytime and ai no uta.

speaking of ai no uta, i saw some interesting pictures about the shooting for ai no uta and freaky's covers, i love kuu's dress for ai no uta!



she looks so cute in glasses! i wanna go shopping with her :(


@ cutie: yeah i saw those when i got my copy of the single.. "lifes a *****!"

seriously????? then.. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH KAZUYOSHI :luv2
lol.

why he not work the same way with Ayu? :grumpy

omg juicy thanks she looks adorable!

I love the Ai no Uta dress and the purple one from FREAKY :yes

Aww..look at my Kumi Kuu. I don't know why some people don't find her beautiful. They must be blind.
