Sweet!
|
thank you for making the new thread :luv2
pretty excited for this album! I wonder if CD+DVD cover will be a different shot.. |
I hope it will!! I'm really excited for this photoshoot because i love the concept, i hope the booklet photos will be amazing like they are for all of her other albums!! The more pics the better! Also I hope that this theme will continue for the Dejavu tour and we'll get another beautiful pamphlet of pics! I love that whenever Kumi releases something, there are always a lot of pictures!!!
I just pre-ordered my copy of Dejavu CD+2DVD from CDJapan and it only came out to $58 because I had a coupon and some points! Basically free shipping. :D P.S. Tsubasa ur avatar is so nice! Definitely my favorite of the 2. :D |
woo hoo , new thread & I'm excited to get Dejavu when it's out in March *O*
|
Yey for the new topic <3 I can't wait for POP DIVA, ETERNITY Live and Dejavu and her tour. Awesome. Kuu really knows how to make people obsessed with herself lol. :D She's so cool <3
|
great new thread! I really hope BLACK CANDY will be a hot dance song. POP DIVA doesn't really satisfy me for a kuu dance song. I gave it more listens to try to get it to grow on me, but I still can't like that chorus. I think the verses are great now, but just when I'm starting to jam that chorus comes in and ruins things.
|
^ the same thing :/, I still can't get into the song , it's a shame I've never felt this way about one of Kumi's songs :weep .
|
have you tried dancing to it yet? lol
|
I haven't listened in full yet but it just sounds like the melody is just very flat. Too much shouting and chanting. It's not very good musically. But I wonder how the b-side will turn out. Kumi's b-sides I usually like a lot but I mean if it's stronger than POP DIVA, why would they have it as a b-side? So I am not expecting much at all.

anytime is one my favorite songs by Kumi , but to be honest bounce is so much better imo . so i can still hope for BLACK CANDY :D
|
^ Oh, yes. Bounce. :heart
|
OHMYGOD THAT WAS FAST LOL
|
I wanna hear some Dejavu previews now ... :innocent
I'm really excited! Quote:
Bounce was just awesome, I wish that song had a PV :bsigh |
New thread already, that was fast.

|
BLACK CANDY sounds really sexy to me for some reason. I hope that I'm not disappointed then because it would be so annoying if it misleads me like that. I hope for a R&B song too. Kuu R&B is delicious. <3
|
i thought melting was the b-side :tipsy
|
Oo, Bounce is a hot song. I was so glad she did it on dirty ballroom. I love the song very much, I think I played it more than anytime when the single was released lol. :D My other favorite b-sides are Lady Go!, Good*day, Heat, STILL IN LOVE, It's too late, Saigo no ame, Your Sunshine, Taisetsu na kimi e, girls, Run For Your Life and Dear Family. :)
|
already new thread? xD
I want POP DIVA pv NAAAAAOOOO!!!! |
is Run For Your Life considered as an A-side or B-side ? , Because if it's a B-side it will be my all time favorite B-side by kumi :heart :heart :heart
|
I count Run For Your Life as a B-side since the single from where it's taken from shares the same title as the main A-side
Run For Your Life has a PV yeah but that's how I see it but then again , it deserves to get a PV cos I like the song & it's just so fun even though I kinda LOL at the Engrish going on in some part of the comic strip like plot for the PV xD :P |
Koda Kumi has many B-sides/ A-sides with videos that didn't make it on the album...
Futari de..., Hashire!, inside fishbowl and outside fishbowl, walk ~to the future~, faraway. She's probably the most prolific when it comes to giving videos to just about every song XD |
AGAIN with the discussion of a-sides b-sides??
God, what matters? Kuu has a lot of a-sides that didn't make into the album, and b-sides that are included. Also a-sides with pv's, b-sides with pv's, and b-sides without having a video! Stop spoiling kuu threads with this kind of discussions. |
^ No one's spoiling the thread :shrug
|
Kuu has a lot of songs. A lot of these songs are awesome. Naturally, people would want to talk about these things while they wait for new material to drop :3
eta- Personally I've been trying to collect her b-sides, since she has so many of them, but I know that's a project unto itself. I should set aside a whole day for that, haha. |

speaking of Run For Your Life, I love that song. it's so catchy. I hadn't listened to it for a while but the DMP performance got me back into it~ |
I honestly also thought "the b-side topic again, we just had it in the old thread" while reading. :laugh
Can't pick my favourites of her b-sides, seriously, she has to many great ones. I can always choose one and enjoy it! But I guess one, Good☆day, Aisho, girls, Run for your life and HEAT feat.MEGARYU are somehow my all time favourites! :heart I still don't feel Pop Diva that much as well. Listened a couple of times to it, but the chorus is just too shouted and that's a pity, cause the verses are good. But there is the b-side Black Candy and on the album Lollipop, Hey baby! and AT THE WEEK END (I'm 100% sure I'll love it). So I don't care that much. |
Kumi definitely has some great b-sides! My favorite is definitely Run for your Life! That song has so much sass!

i sometimes get confused by her A and B sides but oh god i can't believe RFYL is a b-side :heart it's so lovely.
the whole single FREAKY was perfection :luv2. |
so are the fishbowls considered b-sides now too then? or they always were?
Outside fishbowl has grown on me so much. I only just saw the full PV the other day.. I love it. I wish she'd perform that choreography in a live performance of it. Quote:
|
^I think they're a-sides? D: Not sure though.
|
i guess the fishbowls are A-sides :D , But yeah the choreography of outside is fantastic ! i really hope she will preform it at dejavu tour or something
i imagine kuu's walking in a huge hall and she follows one of her dancers as a rabbit and she drink something turns her to a monster and start singing outside and her dark songs . wow :luv2 that will kick the whole AIW thing's ass ! @love in music omg Sora is really awesome and girls i really love all every track on FREAKY :heart |
omg the covers are BEAUTIFUL! :heart i love both covers equally! and i'm very satisfied with the tracklist. lovely titles! :D
i haven't been on in a few days, so does someone mind telling me which new album tracks are getting PVs? i think "Passing By, "Bambi", and "BE MY BABY"? (i wonder why they made a PV for that song, too. guess it's still too amazing, lol) oh, and the POP DIVA PV preview is much different than i imagined, but it still looks amazing!! |
and Megumi no Hito is getting a PV too <3

I think I missed the old discussion of Kuu's b-sides lol. :D I don't really remember we had a discussion about those. o.O Oh well, they're good. :)
And here's also another FREAKY fan o/ I really love that single. It's just as perfect as a summer single can get. I loved the PVs, music, remixes, lyrics, everything. And I still do. ^_^ I have many fond memories when it comes to that single too, and I remember how I overplayed Sora eventually and hated it for a while too. :'D Now I love it again. :) And Run For Your Life and girls are just awesome. I love Kuu singing girls on her tours. Those are really energetic imo. :) |
I'm a tad bit late on this but I thoroughly enjoy Kuu's b-sides as well, Winter Bell has to be one of my top 5, Heat is my #1, I LOVE Sora too!!, ooh and I can't leave out For You(One of Kuu's best ballads imo), so many b-sides to mention, yet so little room in this tiny box, now I feel like I'm rambling :p
|
new thread :heart Thanks!!!!
I have a present coming for you all... February 2nd... ayu ready? |
^ero, is that u?

While cleaning and organizing photos and mp3's I found this advertisement flyer for ushicon
Spoiler:
and a beautiful orchestra version on Unmei from the movie Ooku. I remember hearing the preview and wanted that song so bad I just bought the album :yes mediafire link hopefully its ok I posted the song here |
omg she came to Austin before? :bawl
|
ok guys... you're right!
This morning I was a bit nervous 'cause I had 3 exams in one day and I probably overreacted when I saw "again" the b-sides discussion... It's not your fault ;) Now that I'm relaxed I realise that it was too much for such a small thing, so sorry! :D AND, considering what I said, I have to admit that for me the b-sides are the perfect chance for kumi to do little jewels that usually are not in the line of her usually releases (like good*day, RFYL, the fishbowls, bounce, taisetsu na kimi e, and a extensive list) I don't think they have less quality than the a-sides, just that those songs are differents in some way with the singles that goes with the albums ;) |

No one loves Once Again like I do? That song is so damn good, I could cry. Her vocals are perfection. And of course Boys♥Girls. Both of them are pretty unique in Kuu's discography. I also love Heat, but it's kinda a typical Kuu song.

Welcome everyone! I have scans of the actual con handout that has more info on her and the schedule. When I find it I will post

I LOVE that song. Also love Love Holic and Lady Go!. I can have those song on a loop play lol |
Omg, loving the covers :heart
|
Quote:
|
can I request an mp3 of "Once Again" here? I've never heard it before. I haven't listened to much Kuu stuff before "Best ~ first things" so I'm not knowledgeable about her earlier works.
Pre-ordered my copy of Deja-vu via CDJapan. I feel so excited and giddy now. :innocent |

here you go~ http://www.mediafire.com/?435veunrtwu54v5 |
guys stop you're making me jealous :grumpy , can't w8 for my birthday I want to pre-order Dejavu now :cry
edit : talking about Once Again make me revive my love for it again <3 it's one of my favorite for sure :heart |
Okay, something weird happened to me.
So I guess, in the affection copy of the album I had, they had switched the titles of Best Friend of Mine, and My Dream O_o And I only just noticed cause I got the flac, and I thought something was wrong, but then I remember nintendo saying BFOM was an interlude...and then I listened to them more closely and realised that the lyrics...like have both of the titles in them... And idkwtf, I've had multiple copies of affection...maybe I was just always getting the same crappy copy? :/ So nintendo, I'm really sorry, you're right, it IS an interlude lol And back in the day when I was talking about how much I loved Best Friend of Mine...yeah, I was not talking about that song lol |
^ lol so you were talking about my dream ? , i didn't listen to my dream before , I guess I have to give it a try :P
|
Hey yo what's going on hey yo what's going on... :no Not a fan.
