HUGE thanx to Katharina for inspiration and information from the 9th Thread |
Hope the simplistic layout is okay. I can't make banners or anything so if anyone wants to make a banner, please do so and I can replace the header image with it so it looks more pretty... :innocent
|
I love the header image. You did a great job!
|
I was looking for new artists to try out and decided to give Kana Nishino a chance. All I can say is, why the hell did I not listen to her before?!
Haven't heard to many of her songs yet, I plan to download her albums/singles once I get my laptop fixed, but could anyone link me her TOP hits? I'm having trouble finding them on youtube, usually the pitch of her voice is changed or something :laugh So far I've only heard By your side, If, Tatoe donna ni..., and BRAVE HEART. I love her voice, she'll definitely be my top "to listen to" artist for the summer:heart |
Listen to Distance. That song is life-changing.
|
Try jpopsuki.tv, most of her PVs are uploaded there :)
|
Thanks guys! Will listen :)
|
I'm a huge fan of if.
|
Thanks a lot for the thread, the first post looks really nice !!
My favourites songs: -Motto... -Tookutemo -Best Friend -Distance -Aitakute Aitakute -GO FOR IT!! -SAKURA, I love you? And if you don't have a jpopsuki account, it will be hard to get their albums and singles, many links on the web are already dead |
^Thanks for the heads up, I'll just request it on AHS in the near future :)

Just the way you are Secret Happy Half Year LOVE LIKE CRAZY Happy Song Love you, Miss you |
^Thanks! I'll check those out too :)
|
^Yay for a new fan! :) People have pretty much mentioned all my favorites, but here are some that were left out.
Girlfriend Style. MAKE UP 私たち Day 7 Be Strong Every Boy Every Girl Alright Wishing Summer Girl (feat. MINMI) Hey Boy このままで Come On Yes Yes Oh Yeah!! :heart |
Thanks guys, glad most of you like the thread. :D
I agree with Zeke, Kana's b-sides are usually stellar. My favourites are: Beautiful Call Me Up GIRLS GIRLS GRAB BAG LOVE IS BLIND ONE WAY LOVE ONLY ONE Summer Time |
For me her B-sides are usually forgettable i am only interested in her A-side songs
|
I won't even try to make a list of my fav songs. I just recommend these masterpieces for anyone who's thinking about listening to lovely Queen Kana:
to LOVE Thank you, Love + b-sides from these eras = ♥ These albums will probably always be my Top 2 favs. Love Place wasn't as good (though Be Strong and Tatoe donna ni... broke my heart in a second). LOVE one. was a ok album, but there's still something that doesn't really feel right for me. Maybe it's her voice. Oh well. :D |
My Kana top 10 :
1. missing you 2. Motto... 3. FANTASY 4. if 5. Kimitte 6. Just the way you are 7. I'll Be There 8. Secret 9. Clap Clap!! 10. MAYBE |
Come On announce that BEST OF already Kana
That would be the first time that I might LIKE the album in it's entirety |
You know what? Just listen to her entire discography. Seems like everybody has suggested every single one of her songs.
But you have to listen to candy. That song slays everybody. |
Her first album is flawless, for me. I totally recommend that. :) Her other ones are good too, though. As Nintendo said..just listen to her discography~

I was able to download to LOVE and Thank You, Love. I'm in the process of listening to them now! Thanks everyone for all the suggestions :heart |

watch Kanayan Tour ARENA TOUR 2012! Soooo adorable :heart |
omg thank you!
|
Nice. I need to watch that when I got time. :)
|
according to Kana's official site her new release is
★New LIVE DVD & Blu-ray Disc 発売決定★ 2nd LIVE DVD & Blu-ray Disc 『Kanayan Tour 2012 ~Arena~』 2013.4.17 Release! 【DVD初回限定盤】SEBL-152~153 ¥6,000 (tax in) ☆初回盤限定特典☆ ①オフィシャルツアー写真集 ②ツアーダイジェスト映像ビデオクリップ 【DVD通常盤】SEBL-154~155 ¥5,500 (tax in) 【Blu-ray Disc初回限定盤】SEXL-30 ¥7,000 (tax in) ☆初回盤限定特典☆ ①オフィシャルツアー写真集 ②ツアーダイジェスト映像ビデオクリップ 【Blu-ray disc通常盤】SEXL-31 ¥6,500 (tax in) <西野カナ初のアリーナツアー・最終公演の模様を完全収録!> and she has a new tour ★『Kanayan Tour 2013~Spring~』 Spoiler:
|
Wha...!?!?!? :thud
We only have THREE dates remaining!!! Oh, why did we not post the tour schedule earlier in the first place...!? |
I made a conclusion she was touring just by updates of her official personal ameblo blog, so I decided to go and check on the official site. since Kana's thread's super dead and no one's updating, I decided to post
btw, anyone have a clue why they decided to do another tour anyway? it's not supported by a single new release, so may I conclude that maybe there was a high demand of another tour by fans?? |
Maybe she just likes to do those Spring tours. She has done those last year and year before that too if I remember correctly. :)

The covers for the new Arena Tour DVD are on Tumblr. Can't post them, though cause I'm on my phone. But, uh, they were uploaded to popsister.tumblr.com :D
|
^ Thanks! They look so cheap...
For those who don't want to check tumblr. DVD RE http://i48.tinypic.com/10moiad.png DVD LE http://i47.tinypic.com/9leb0i.png BD RE http://i50.tinypic.com/zyecub.png BD LE http://i47.tinypic.com/2im3q7q.png |
Aaw, they're cute though. Kana looks so pretty. :laugh I've never seen her with her hair all pinned up!
|
cute but C H E A P P P P
|
Aaahh... Happy belated birthday Kanayan ><"
|
I'm fine with them
|
Those covers are so much better than Kanayan Tour 2011's imo.
Is there a mp3 rip of the youku file somewhere btw? I want that. *_* |
I honestly prefer the 2011's ones.. like by far. Those are just tacky and cheap :/ The DVD LE being the worst of all of them, and it was the one I was planning to get lol.. hu might reconsider.
|
uuuuuhhhh those covers are all so cheap looking.
I don't like them at all... |
lol they're adorable. don't know what y'all talking about. Better than that HOTEL Love Songs or whatever Ayu is releasing.
|
Idk what's so adorable about a creepy smile lol
|
Not digging the background, but she looks cute!
|
They are cute, cheap and creepy (well, the BR LE is) all rolled into one. Works for me. I want the limited edition of the Blu Ray. Might wait till its been out for a bit and order from Amazon Japan and use a middle man.
|
the tour covers are very cute! :heart
|
I like them, they're interesting and different. :yes
|
Four different covers...but yeah, in some way it might be cheap...
|
I really love the covers, they don't look cheap to me. :P

I love them!

She performed a new song, Believe, during the final night of her tour "Kanayan Tour 2013 Spring".
Preview here Quote:
|
Finally a new sinlge. Can't listen to it since I am at work.
I hope it will be something different finally.... |
sounds good...
|
preview sounds boring
|
Basic
|
As short as the preview is, I really do like it. Definitely caught my interest!
|
Sounds pretty good. Could go either way. I haven't had goosebumps for a Kana preview since if and Tatoe something something.
|
From what I could hear, the song sounds good. It has the potential to be interesting if it's paired with a unique, well-crafted music video, but it is very expected. I wonder why she doesn't experiment with her style more.
|
so happy that kana will be releasing a new single! "Believe" is a nice title. :)
|
I like what I hear from the preview! It has a nice summer vibe to it
|
lmao Believe sounds amazing haters please sit down now
|
Dear diary,
Today I started to like Always. I don't know why, but I can't get that **** outta my head. I don't know how I feel about this. |
Ew, preview's on that crappy website that never works for me! D: Oh well, I just wait for the single. It's not that far away anyway...
|
finally
|
So I've decided that 'to Love' is my favourite album. When I got into Kana, even though it wasn't the first song I heard, Motto was just released and I remember receiving it from CDJapan and being so excited. Which makes me think of a question: has anyone actually used any of the stickers that they got if they bought any of the first press editions of some of her singles? Like Best Friend, Aitakute Aitakute, Kimitte, Esperenza, Tatoe Donna Ni and Always (am I missing any?) ?
|
I think there are stickers with I and Glowly Days too. But nah, never used mine.

Kana Nishino Performs Concert in Taiwan
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ps175f4d16.jpg Held in the National Taiwan University Gymnasium on March 30, Kana Nishino attracted over 3000 fans for her solo concert in Taiwan as part of her "Kanayan" Asian Tour 2013. She managed to wear 7 different cutely-patterned clothes for this concert and was warmly welcomed by her international fans. Nishino sang her popular songs including "Always" and after being greeted a belated happy birthday song by her fans, she happily responded with "Xie Xie" and in a capella, sang her hit song "Best Friend" in Chinese. Nishino's popularity in Taiwan began when Japanese fashion magazines featuring her were distributed, as well as her singles, albums and DVDs being released in the country.

even worse than I thought ew. It's like GO FOR IT!! Part II. Come on Kana, go back to your roots coz I'm loosing faith in you.. |
I really like it :laugh
Can't wait for a studio version! |
I doubt we will ever have another glowly days :laugh Kana became most popular from her Motto-type songs. I think the light R&B-Pop Kana is here to stay. But, I could be wrong.
|
I would rather get Motto part 5 rather than those random pop songs, it's really nothing original and adds nothing to the plate. Plus it's usually super annoying with a voice such as hers.. But here again, that's just me >o<
|
If she sells a lot with this new single, we could see more songs like GO FOR IT! in the future.
Anyway, i like Believe |
Sounds better than GO FOR IT!! to me, I kind of like it :)
|
It's not a bad song imo. :)
|
Ooohhh, I like Believe a lot more after hearing the full live! It sounds like it could be an old anime theme song, which I like. Yay. :)
|

|
"Believe" is a very nice song! :)
|
Believe is nice, but that's it. I like the chorus, the verses will take some getting used to though.
Whatevs, I'm more interested in her B-sides. I'm hoping for a song like Secret, is this love?, or SUMMER TIME. |
Does anyone have HQ images of the Distance covers? They would be much loved!
|
I have the regular HD, but only have a scan for the first press one
Spoiler:
|
^Hey, that's still a major help! Thank you very much :D
|
I want more sparkly covers like Distance. :yes
|
I've never seen the back cover of Distance single. Looks lovely! :)
|
I remember when the Distance covers first leaked and everybody cried tears of joy at how gorgeous they were. Ahhh those were the days.
|
I wanted the Distance scans to turn into iPhone wallpapers. They look soooooo beautiful on the display.

I don't know if these are official, they were posted on baidu recently with single info
http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/12...fmpho11280.jpg http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/66...fmpho21280.jpg SECL-1317 CD+DVD 1,500 SECL-1319 CD 1,223 |
I hope they're official, they aren't bad at all, I really like them! =DD
Can't wait for this single! <3 |
they're official I think, even though if it's no from a Japanese shop, they're from a Taiwanese online shop
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=...id=17759033234 That's probably where Chinese fans always get the covers in advance :) |
They're cute... but I don't want Kana to have short hair! :no
|
They remind me of Go For It!! for some reason, but I really like them. I love her hair style. I was thinking of dying my tips, but was holding off because I was wondering how it would look on my medium length hair, but hers is shorter and it still looks good.
EDIT: Is anyone else getting Koda Kumi realness vibes from the second cover? The pose and facial expression are really Kuu, imo. Love it. |
the "Believe" covers are so cute! :heart
|
Quote:
But I'm still waiting for something long Aitakutex2 style!:D |
Cute covers, I really like them!
I hope the first one is for the limited edition ♥ |
Adorable <3
|
I'm ready for a new single from Kana!
|
Quote:
|
I like them, she looks a bit like ayu :3
|
love the covers, she looks really cute!
|
If those are the official covers for the single, I don't mind because from my point of view these are really nice. :)
Quote:
|
The covers still look really fake to me. I'm gonna wait for an official announcement.
|
pretty!
