From the old thread:
Quote:
I know from Gubsi that Kuu was shooting another PV for the album today (from her FC blog), so that means we get another western R&B collab song? And a PV for it as well? Can't wait, Passing By was already amazing. Love the Emoda cover, looks pretty perfect to me! |
Awesome pic. One of her best Cover shots imo.
|
Love Me Back PV debuted at #1 on recochoku yesterday and is #1 today as well.
|
Omarion? Sorry, I've never been a fan of his or when he was in the all boy group B2K. We'll see how this collaboration goes...:innocent
|
Okay, not gonna lie, my friends were all into the whole B2K thing when they came out, and I admit to liking a few of their songs. They also look good together. Kuu always holds her own when doing stuff with Western singers, they mesh so well. And she looks good with Omarion. And he's much cuter than B. Howard, so the PV will be hot!
|
yes ist seems like it's a RnB ballad!
I can't Upload that pic from the blog cause i'm not at home and i can't upload pics with my iPhone! Looks like some bluescreen thing and i think they'll add somthing like a Sunset or somthing like that!! omg hot the emoda Cover!! |
that EMODA cover is just perfect. :heart
and kuu & omarion? that's one collaboration i wasn't expecting, lol. but i wonder how it'll be. :P |
Couldn't she get Usher, why this z-lister?
|
I like the cover, she looks sexy <3 And I don't have a clue on who this guy is, but Kuu rarely fails at collabs, so I'm ansious for this!
|
Where is the picture in the first post from? I love it.
|
^ 2009 calendar
|
guys!! I need some help!!
I'm going to japan this june!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D (I can't believe it!) I can't miss this opportunity to see kuu in concert! but I don't have any idea of how I should buy the tickets!! is it already possible? considering I'm from Spain?? Please, tell me there's a way...... thank u so much guys!!! |
Quote:
They has a Hit with "Bump Bump Bump"! Then he has/had a solo career... BUT i only know "Ice Box" which is a very good song imo! |
Quote:
|
That EMODA cover is just perfect. It's blown me away. :heart One of her best covers ever, for me!
I really can't wait to see the lives for Love Me Back and the new magazines shoots, they're going to be epic worthy. <3 2011 really has been a year for kuu, she's made my heart jump at every turn! |
Flawless as always :yes
|
I'm sorry, but Kuu's teeth look funny in that pic. Like she has a gummy smile or something.
|
Srsly Omarion? ummm Usher or even Ne-Yo would be a sick combo imo
oh and ...that EMODA cover is hot!! ps: I still dream of seeing a David Guetta/Kuu collabo one day...:yes *listens to Without You~ |
Love the cover~~ Not THAT crazy about her hair...especially after all the awesome things I've seen them do with hair...but oh well.
It's quite different than what I had in mind. But quite interesting. Their line for this season is totally retro and fabric heavy~~ So I wonder what they'll put her in inside! I have no idea who B2K is lol edit:...just looked them up...lol okay I remember Omarion. It's kinda funny they're collabing. |
Kuu presenting the limited Love Me Back pouch edition on the PV set yesterday:

^She looks beautiful on those pics. <3
And another collaboration? With someone I don't even know? Oh well, Kuu's collaborations doesn't usually fail to impress me (That Ain't Cool though was pain to my ears and still is lol) so I bet it's awesome since Passing By was epic <3 |
Her hair looks amazing ♥

Kumi lost some positions, but I think she'll never be out of this list (which I don't really think it's bad, at least people remember her lol). |
Quote:
Ok, I guess no one is going to help me! thanks anyway for the ~silence~ |
Calm down, honey, didn't recognize it.
There are several ways to get a hand on tickets. Buying them online through a middleman service, winning some on a japanese auction also with a middleman service or even buying some being there (mostly there are tickets at reseller stores still some days before a concert). But if you want them before, you need a middleman service. At least I don't know other ways, I never bought tickets. Maybe you should take a look at immel's guide to get to a Ayu concert: http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=70001 |
@krauterol: Let's see whether I can help you or not
Some people I know bought tickets from reseller shop (Yokohama ticket) which is located at Shibuya. When do you plan to go? |

|
I guess people hate Kuu for her 2008 comment? Or maybe its her sexy style? Rola is on there too, and she's not even Japanese. I wonder why people hate her? Mind you, I find her horribly unattractive, so I don't know why she's popular in the first place.
|
People hate Kuu probably because of her sexy image (which isn't that bad when you know what she's using it for) and probably some of them still think of the 2008 scandal (which is so old everyone should already forget it lol XD) or then they're just annoyed that she's still popular. :D
And who the heck is Rola? :D |

I've just watched Love Me Back (short version) from SSTV and it have the exactly same cut, so the one from MTV that we got a rip is an official short version.
|
^^......
Who's the 7 year old they hate? Damn :/ Koda on there isn't surprising. |
Ashida Mana is a japanese actress (and now a singer too), she's so cute.
http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q...l/123156-1.jpg It seems they hate her because she's too cute / overexposed on the media, but I think this is so mean, she's just a child... |
^she does seem to have quite the extensive discography for someone who's only 7...but even so...god. Is there no one that they won't bring hate upon...
|
double post.
I now understand why koda's legs are fabulous. Have you guys ever tried doing any of these dances in over 3 inch heels? omfg... |
Is that list of most disliked woman based on people they have asked or sales? I find it hard to believed that Japan can put a 7 year-old girl on a most disliked list...But then again, this is Japan. I'm a little surprised that Kuu is on there, but like people said that's probably to do with her image. If they haven't gotten over the bloody 2008 comment by now. ¬¬
And woo! Well done for 'Love Me Back' at #1, let's hope it debuts as well on Oricon, too. :) |

It's like 250++ miles away from Tokyo I can't help you when it's not in Tokyo area Sorry m(_ _)m well, Gubsi, Corvina and me are going on 17th show |
Quote:
It's just that I start my hollidays on june 22nd, so 24 it's the only chance hahaha Anyway... if you say it's so far away from tokio area... I would have to meditate it:headache thanks anyway for the interest, and enjoy the show on the 17th :D |
10 more days until the release date.. *impatient* I wonder what kind of song Say Her Name will be.
|
The single will leak next week, as always. I'm looking forward to hear the remix and Say Her Name too.
|
sorry to be a nag but can someone tell me the days kuu is performing LMB live, please? :) thank you!
I'm going to try to download them in HDTV :) |
Quote:
|
I know that avex is not the best label when it comes to Kuu, but damn, they're being worse than usual... Also, will the limited edition for LMB just include the pouch or will there be anything else? Cuz they announced it as CD+Goodies, if we're not getting anything else I shall cancel my pre-order of it, the pouch is just meh to me, so I'd take the CD+DVD version instead and save some money.
|
Just the pouch and Love Me Back track on the CD.
Actually they announced CD+Pouch, and not goodies (if I'm not wrong). EDIT~ I saw this in a japanese blog: Quote:
|
Thanks, Kaled! :)
If 'Say Her Name' is a GOOD ballad than I won't mind, I'm quite interested to see the lyrics for that. It could be like...A sexy ballad? LOL. |
Thanks, Kaled! :)
If 'Say Her Name' is a GOOD ballad than I won't mind, I'm quite interested to see the lyrics for that. It could be like...A sexy ballad? LOL. |
'rainy coupling'? XD;; gotta love google. But yeah, it says Say Her Name is like a love song.
|
I hope Say Her Name is like Always :heart :heart :heart
Oh, then I'll probably cancel my pre-order, maybe I'll also get 4 TIMES CD+DVD :P |
I was hoping for a sexy song with 'Say Her Name'. The title reminded me of like, saying someone's name in bed, lol. I guess its more like say her name softly in a loving way? Or maybe its a sexy ballad, like a slower KSKS.
EDIT: Maybe it will be like 'Rain'! But, I still want a sexy ballad. |
Quote:
well, I won't mind if Say Her Name is a ballad as long as it's good. actually I want something like Dear Family ;_; this song is so christmas-y to me :p |
She is so beautiful on the EMODA cover... :heart I love this lady so much.
SMH @ Omarion though... wtf? Fergie, B. Howard, Omarion... does she have a list of horrible american singers she wants to collab with? (I love Passing by tho and I kinda like That Ain't Kuu) |
^That Ain't Kuu :D I always hear them sing like that XD
Say her name's gonna be a ballad? :'D I thought it's gonna be something like Under or SHAKE IT... :'D |
I like That Ain't Cool, the solo live version is cool with she singing more on the chorus, but I hate Passing By... I can't with that guy... I'm just waiting for the solo version on the Dejavu Tour.
It would be cool if Say Her Name starts as a ballad and then is a uptempo song, like Hush Hush (PCD). EDIT~ It seems that Love Me Back PV will have two versions: single and album. If someone could translate correctly, I'll appreciate it. |
Hahaha awww, no love for B. Howard, I actually liked him in Passing by. :') Although he does have quite a boyish voice.
It's when Justin Bieber is on that list of collaborations that I will throw myself out a window. |
Quote:
She mentioned that she received a lot of stories from her fans about being betrayed by their boyfriends. It's something like: I want you to say my name more (rather than "her" name) kind of feeling. The Love Me Back PV will have 2 versions. On the single version, you can suddenly see police-Kuu suddenly changes to nurse-Kuu. The single version is more focus on the dancing and singing part. Meanwhile the album version will have more detailed stories & scenes why police Kuu changed into nurse Kuu. (sorry for the crappy explanation) |

LOL @ Justin Bieber comment. I love Passing By with B. Howard too. I don't think I'd like a solo version...
Looks like the album version of Love Me Back will be the one I care about. |
Quote:
|
Justin Bieber, Mana Ashida...uhh...that did not make sense here...
|
I'm surprised Say Her Name will be a sad love song.
Almost all her ballads are written by japanese songwriters, probably cause of that certain style Japanese love. But maybe it won't be that ballady? Happy about two LMB PV versions which seem worthy! :) |
Nice, two different PVs. :3 I gotta watch them both when it's possible~ <3
|
Kuu is working really hard on the album.
Her team and her are planning to shoot another PV, this time with choreography. So probably a dance song! Info from her FC, thanks to Gubsi honey.^^ |
Oh, that's awesome! <3 Come to me, album with tons of PVs :heart
|
I have a good feeling about her next album. well I loved ALL the single tracks this time so I hope it becomes one of my faves from her :9

I need an album, NOW, Kuu.
Actually, I need LMB NOW! And then an album. That calendar is sooo cute, I love it. |
Wow I haven't been on AHS much recently, could someone give me a quick update on Kuu, I don't have the patience to read through all the posts xD
|
That calendar is too cute!!!

^ omg I can't :roflmao :roflmao :roflmao She looks awesome btw
|
yes it's from her PV with choreo today!
There's another pic in the FC thats Even more hilarious with her manager in the background i think! BUT no info bout the Song or PV in the FC blog |
Quote:
Can't wait for this album. :D I really like the description of 'Say Her Name', it seems like it's going to be a touching song. I'm looking forward to it. :) Also, GooRanking held a poll a poll beteen 2011/11/5 - 2011/11/12, which Japanese artists have the most charming PVs? 1. Arashi 2. Namie Amuro 3. AKB48 4. EXILE 5. Koda Kumi 6. Hamasaki Ayumi 7. FUNKY MONKEY BABYS 8. L'arc~en~Ciel 9. Kanjani8 10. Perfume 11. Shiina Ringo 12. Mr. Children 13. GReeeeN 14. BUMB OF CHICKEN 15. YUI 16. Kimura Kaela 17. Aiko 18. Other Credit: Kumi-flash Goo kuu! |
Kumi will be on Mnet Asian Music Awards 2011! http://www.sanspo.com/geino/news/111...0506019-n1.htm
She's working really hard. |
Quote:
Btw, kuu is really fabulous, but in therms of pv's.. she's a goddes :yes |
so i was searching the FC blog how many PV's we have already, cause i wasn't sure if it's 4 or 5...
so i made this: 01. Boom Boom Boys (mid october i think) 02. cutie pop song (2011.11.09) 03. ??? finished a PV faster than expected (2011.11.15+2011.11.16) 04. ??? feat. Omarion (2011.11.18-2011.11.19) 05. dance choreo PV (2011.11.22-2011.11.23) i really hope she use all her A-Sides for this album... i don't want another "Hashire!" drama again!! Hashire! wasn't my fave song, BUT i hate it when they left A-Sides.. BEST ~third univers~ tracklist was horror without JUICY, Aisho, Cherry Girl and Unmei!! thats why i fixed it in my iTunes lol |
Wow, Kuu is getting some international relevance on Asia, that's amazing :heart
About the album... Six PVs are too much, so if we're not getting a double a-side pre-single like Cherry Girl / Unmei, I'm totally sure that she's making PVs for the entire album. And they have time to prepare everything, cuz if they include the mini live on it, it'll be released just by March, and the tour starts on April, so imo everything fits. |
I'm super pumped for this album.
|
Side note: how can anyone hate Wada Akiko?
Yay for a new album! I'm excited for nurse and police Kuu. |
Summary and translation of the Mnet Music Awards article:
Quote:
shallowyetsmart@tumblr and kumi-flash That's an honor for Kuu to be invited to MAMAs and that as the only japanese artist. And yay for her being that high up on the list for great PVs! Kuu, I'm proud of you! :heart Love the pic for the new PV, her look seems so punkrock - and that with a nice choreo! I really, really can't wait for the album. I'm so damn excited about it just like I discovered her back in 2007! |
Preview of Say Her Name:
http://soundcloud.com/kaled_kalil/ko...r-name-preview Preview of Love Me Back (Andy Price Remix): http://soundcloud.com/kaled_kalil/ko...e-me-back-andy Say Her Name is kinda cool, but I don't like a lot the "say my name to my face". :| |
^ I don't like the remix, but Say Her Name sounds great :heart Thanks for sharing!
|
I'm pumped for kuu coming to Singapore! I'll try to see if I can get a ticket to the awards, but my sis is already going to see 2PM and Miss A, she's thrilled too, and made a board for kuu. Which I think it's awesome, as she's more of a casual fan.
|
Just saw Kuu on FNS best Kayousei.
She sang Poppin'LoveCocktail and it's good. She wore colorful outfit (yellow fur top & shoes) Thanks Kaled for the preview.. Say Her Name isn't really my cup of tea |
WTF is she wearing? o_o |
haha, kuu's outfit is crazy. :P but the performance was great!
|
Say her name preview sounded really pretty. I really like it. <3
Poppin' love cocktail performance made me feel so hyped and grin like a idiot. It was so energetic and Kuu's clothes were colorful :D Now I feel happy. Thank you Kuu <3 Hmm, I guess I gotta go look for more TV performances of Kuu's. I haven't seen that many though I've been a crazy fan since 2008. For some reason I never felt like watching her TV performances. I've only gotten into that since Suki de x3/Anata dake ga was released. :'D Of course, I've seen few performances in TABOO era and few even before that but yeah, it was rare that I watched TV performances before XD And no one's interested <3 //And awesome that she gets a chance to perform at MAMAs. She's so gonna own the stage. <3 |
|
Ahhh I was so excited when I saw Kuu would be performing on the MAMA awards from Tokyohive. It's such an Honor to be asked to perform there, and it'll be broadcasted in 45 countries so hopefully I may be able to see it! :heart Kuu's been working so hard, she deserves the recognition for her performances and work. People at Tokyohive and OMONA are really excited about it, too. Link for Tokyohive:
http://www.tokyohive.com/2011/11/kod...rform-at-mama/ Wow, I really like the preview for 'Say Her Name'! It really stands out for a b-side for me, like 'Always'. I don't like the remix as much but it's still good to jam too! Omg that performance was epic. :D I loved what she was wearing, and the dancers. Although I would because I love 2NE1 for that sort of style, too. It was a powerful performance, I thought her vocal was great, and all the fans were chucking their towels around and loving it. :D Mjy favourite performances are always ones that have loads of energy and connection with Kuu and the audience, I'll definately be downloading that one in HD. :heart @Dr.Dolce: I know a place where you can download all of Kuu TV lives, if you want to watch some. :) It's French and you have to become a member, but it only takes 2 seconds. I'll give you a link to the list of all her performances, if you'd like. P.S That TV Guide photo is gorgeous! :heart |

Nice performance though. |

I'm excited to see she performing on MAMA, if she sing Love Me Back will be really awesome, but I think she's gonna sing some old song (or even BE MY BABE once again). She looks cute in this picture ♥ ---- Schedule -update- Quote:
|
OMG so much Kuu good news.. I'm so excited. Especially for all the pvs.
Say her nay ay ayme to my fa ay ayce... I love it. |
Say Her Name sounds like rnb songs from early 2000s, I like it A LOT :heart
And the perfomance was great, even with that outfit :roflmao |
Quote:
http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/Xkf83NAmf0o/ CDTV performance for Physical Thing. IMO PT is one of her worst "****ty" songs, but in this live is pure love and perfection. Awesome dance, outfit and hair. This make me think in the fact that usually kuu music is for me like: "well, song is ok, nothing amazing, but I know that this in live, or even better: this performed in the tour is going to be awesome" Some examples: Can we go back. Is a simple rock song cover, nothing outstanding. but her performance in Dream music park/Universe tour is just breath-taking! Black Cherry: nice song, but it's nothing of the other world, btw in Black Cherry tour is like: OMG, how you can be sooooo ***ing awesome!??! If you like kuu, then her "live" part should be important :D she's always do her best on the stage :yes |
I don't like Say Her Name, it's an RnB style ballad, and i hate when kuu did them... >_<
I'm looking forward to the new single, especially the new PV... we don't have anything yet ! Or almost... |
