On another subject; I really like The One. I used to not be moved by the chorus but really liked the verses and the lyrics. Now it's all just too great. What does everyone think of RUN FREE? I can't stop listening to it. |
;)
RUN FREE feels kinda out of place to be honest, I would have been fine without it. I did like it as a digital single though, I just don't like it within all the album songs, it's a bit too messy for me. |
Omgosh ~cakegate 2014~
I really enjoy RUN FREE. I love the way AI sings on it. I'm glad she put it on the album. |
I wonder if she will release another album before releasing a best album. Considering that there were only two albums between Best Destiny and M Best. I just wonder.
What is with Japanese artists needing to use the word 'best' in best of albums? |
LOVELAND is my first Miliyah album, and I'm really enjoying it. :) I've always ignored her in the past because I'm not at all a fan of jr&b (or r&b in general). I do agree that there aren't really any standout tracks, but that's one of its strengths to me. I love how smooth and cohesive it is; it really feels like an album, which is saying something considering it's jpop and all the singles came out long before the album was being conceptualized I'm guessing lol. My faves are Lonely Hearts, Shape of Love, Love/Affection, kamisama, and One Night Only :heart
I did try TRUE LOVERS since it was also recent but after three songs I shut it off 'cause they were all waaay too long for my taste. :\ |
^ You could try HEAVEN (album). WHY, Sora, Free, Destiny, BFF and ByeBye are amazing songs (in my opinion of course).
I don't care for RUN FREE either. I kicked it off my iTunes :laugh Kamisama is still my favorite :heart |
I love her new album. So good. I need to revisit her discography...Miliyah somehow dropped out of my life and I'm not sure why!
Great first post, thanks Utena. |
I love the album!
|
Nice first post!
|
After a few (alot) of listens to the album I can say that I really love all songs except for PRIDE and One Night Only.
You're Beautiful has grown on me alot and it's one of my favorites now:D RUN FREE does feel out of place but it's a good and fun song so I don't really mind. This album is on par with Heaven and TRUE LOVERS for me.:yes |
I adored Heaven, I remember running to Tower Records and picking it up a couple days before I moved back to the States, and it's been one of my favorite albums ever since. But yeah, for some reason Miliyah just kind of dropped off the map for me ever since then...maybe I was so obsessed with Heaven, I just didn't pay attention to what she came out with afterwards? (LOVERS pt. II w/ Wakadanna excepted...I've had that song stuck in my head for almost a year)
Anyway, my point is, I really liked Lonely Hearts and thought Love/Affection cw Kamisama was great, and I'm really enjoying Loveland! So much so that I'm working my way backward through her entire discography now. :P Up next...TRUE LOVERS. |
Another newcomer impressed by LOVELAND here! It really is such a cohesive album, a pleasure to listen to. I disagree about the album lacking standout tracks, many songs jumped out at me right away! My favorites are Love/Affection, UNIQUE, Kamisama and Jounetsu to Reisei no Aida. One Night Only and Loveland are kind of meh for me, but all the other songs are on a scale from "This is really good!" to "I LOVE THIS". If Miliyah's other albums are this good, they need to get into my ears yesterday. :)

All her albums are great in their own ways, so you should probably listen to them all eventually.
For tenshi no hane, I feel bad about asking, but could you (if you see this) please translate LOVER -Epidode II-? If you have time and will, any other translations of other album songs that didn't get one would be welcome, too. Reading your translations makes it easier for me to get to like them more. No wonder I already love all the songs you translated. |

|
I live for B.F.F. That song is just... ugh <3 I literally listen to it once a day.

LOVER –Episode II– Spoiler:
I love the way she sings the 5th stanza :heart |
I started with heaven and wanted more, so yeah....
Yuushatashi is my favourite track ever if you want to know btw. |
Thank you again, Tenshi!
I'm finally starting to get into LOVELAND. It's a good album. |
^ You're welcome~
Another one: You're Beautiful (translation) Spoiler:
|
Thanks so much, tenshi. It's great to listen to the album whilst reading these translations. :)
Still loving the album - my favourites are UNIQUE, Reisei to Jounetsu no Aida, RUN FREE, EMOTION and You're Beautiful so far. I really like how cohesive the album is when you listen to it all the way through. |
Covers for the collab album with Shota Shimizu are out
Regular Edition http://i60.tinypic.com/2cge8mu.jpg Limited Edition http://i60.tinypic.com/2qa7b40.jpg |
wow nice covers, I love that location (Salvation Mountain - CA (USA))!!
it's kinda funny that SHOTA means p-u-s-s-y in brazilian portuguese |
I like how with each release Miliyah and Shota do together, the covers get progressively worse lol
|
Quote:
|
lol I agree with Nintendo regarding the covers.
Another translation~ Loveland (translation) Spoiler:
|
so you guys think they're worse than LOVE STORY? ahah. Doubt they can ever top the ugliness of LOVE STORY's covers.
I feel they're from the making of of the real album covers lol -I wish-. They could have been easily better but oh well, at least they're decent, no ugly photoshop editing. |
Are they a couple?
|
^ They're just friends :)

I've miss a bit, but I saw the PV of Sakura Melody the other day. Those covers are horrible, but their collaboration cover art imagery has been bad for a while. Both covers look like complete advertisements for God/Jesus. >_> However, I'm totally buying it. Limited Edition cover is probably better than regular I think. I LOL'ed in Sakura Melody when Shota was checking out that huge bottle of Ketchup around 1:36 mark.
|
Another newcomer here (I've heard of her but never listened to her songs)! I've downloaded LOVELAND earlier and I'm already at You're Beautiful. It's not a fabulous album but for me it's a breath of air since I don't listen too often to jr'n'b. My favourite songs are Shape of Love and UNIQUE. But why is she eating pasta on the album cover lol?
|
I think LOVELAND is a great album, but it can feel a bit slow I guess. I think everyone here will agree with me that 'HEAVEN' is the best album for people who are new to Miliyah
|
^yep...cause its starts with BYE BYE <3
|
I really wish Miliyah would collaborate with DAISHI DANCE again. I miss you is so flawless it hurts me.
|
They did a remix of Love/Affection and that was pretty great.

basically stereotypes, he is small, soft-spoken, really fashionable and never really seen with girls (although most j-celebs don't really date publicly) anyway automatically he is considered gay, basically its a long running joke at this point....unless he comes out, who knows but I am gonna with straight till then |

So I noticed on Instagram, users in Japan that have hash-tagged Miliyah, have recently posted about a new single being released on June 4th this year; its a Mika Nakashima X Miliyah Kato song called "Fighter". Is this true?! I haven't followed Mika for a long time, and its an interesting duet if its true, it hard to imagine them together for a song. |
Uhmmmmmm Mika and Miliyah together??? 2 of my faves? I would die if that's true, even if it's hard to imagine them together like you said. But still... I so hope it's true.
|
seems it's more or less confirmed. A Japanese boxer mentioned on twitter shooting for the upcoming PV of a song entitled "Figther" by two unnamed singers.
I'm soooo curious to see what's it's gonna be!! |
I was looking at http://fyeahkatomiliyah.tumblr.com/ (good blog/updates on Miliyah) and they have referenced it twice so maybe it will happen? I'm unsure about hte collaboration as I said, but at the same time I'm also kind of excited.
http://24.media.tumblr.com/efd9c9b91...mszo1_1280.jpg BTW, since Miliyah and Shota seem to be doing promotion for THE BEST, have they officially spoken about why its their First and Last collaboration album, etc? The April 2014 Jelly photos of Miliyah, she's so pretty here! Spoiler:
|
From the Mika thread
Quote:
Bigger promo picture Spoiler:
|
So... Whose single really is this?
|
Quote:
|
Okay, so when this single is out we should tag the artist as both Mika and Miliyah?
|
it should be tagged as "中島美嘉×加藤ミリヤ"
|
^ All right. Thank you!
|
The promo pics don't exactly scream "fighter", so much as... "ghost #14 From The Woman in Black".
|
Mika looks fierce. Miliyah looks like Fantine from Les Mis.
|
OMMMMMGGGG... While I agree that the promo pic doesn't look fighter-ish, I still think they look flawless and amazing. Its very Vampiric looking. Definitely Interview with the vampire looking.
|
God I fucking love the promo picture. Mika and Miliyah are so fierce.
|
she's been looking great lately and I love the both girls :)
|
I am so excited. YES.
|

Does anyone else have trouble scrobbling a few LOVELAND songs? Like they won't show up in the library.
|
She looks amazing in the chained up scenes of Fighter's PV *.*
|
I wish there were more scenes of Mika fighting and less spiderman scenes! Hopefully there is a movie-less edit.

Miliyah is so pretty in the PV, i don't know why she looks like a horse in her photo shoots
|
Both CD+DVD versions looks amazing. It was such a great collab indeed, Japanese Music Industry needs more of this.
|
|
I like the remix so much more than the original!
The video is ok, Mika doesn't do happy very well lol. But they both look good :) |
new single listed for 9.3 release now, two editions.
|
Great! Thanks for the info!
|
I can't wait for the single. I wonder what kind of style will she use now.
|
The new single is titled "YOU..." and it's a collaboration with Nakasone Izumi from the band HY. :)

http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/JdGrnZT290g/
1:30 preview of YOU... |
So basic lol but pretty
|
YOU has that perfect sound for ending credits for a movie or drama, I can see why it was chosen? or She did that on purpose, haha.
BTW, was there ever translations made for the rest of LOVELAND; the non single songs? I saw the ones that tenshi no hane did, but I was curious about the rest. I haven't found any online. |

Sorry this took so long! Work was hell this week. I have kind of a hard time translating Miliyah's lyrics sometimes...and that was certainly an exercise in kanji recognition, lol.

Wow, I have to admit I wasn't expecting much from the preview we had, but it ended up being beautiful!
Also excited about the two remixes :) |
nice PV
|
She looks beautiful. Lovely PV. I don't really care for the song, though.
|
I think 'Kono machi no dokoka de' is one of my favorite songs of hers. And I've been translating a song-per-day to get my skills back up to snuff, so I did this one today :luv2
Spoiler:
|
getting tired of her duets. and a remix on sayonara baby? that's random
|
does anyone concur? DESIRE is her best song ever and her best single. i just love it so much ever since the 1st day I heard it when the PV was out. summer's melancholy and really really beautiful lyrics
|
I actually don't think I've heard it before...thanks for the rec, I'll look it up!

Hmm. Thanks for the pv, but the song doesn't really do much for me. :/ Maybe I would feel differently if I didn't want summer to end but this year I don't really give a damn so...haha. I'll try it again next summer!
|
@waterballoon I do (well, on the best single ever statement). DESIRE/BABY!BABY!BABY! is really one of the strongest singles ever in Jpop probably. I think I love BABY!BABY!BABY! a bit more than DESIRE, though. And Ain't no other (the b-side) is amazing beyond words for me. For some reason because it's so underrated I prefer it to both A-sides, really. I really can't tell which is my best Miliyah song, though. There are many, many masterpieces to choose from.
@chocopockymaster The song does take a few listens to grow. Many people rarely like songs on the first listen anyway. |
Ain't no other is also my favorite out of the 3 songs ♥
I honestly cannot pick one song as being my favorite, she has way too many awesome songs. On another note, she'll be releasing her very first artist book in collaboration with CD Data magazine 「Cupido-クピド-」 2014.10.02 OUT Spoiler:
Main content ■ Article written by Miliyah herself entitled 「愛 の 歌」 (Love Song) ■ Past articles published in CD & DL data compiled. ■ Fans favorite Miliyah songs voted by fans, messages from other celebrities ■ Soft cover - B5 sized (167mm x 210mm) - ~190 pages Depending on where you pre order your copy, you'll get a limited bookmark with 4 different designs. http://www.cddata-mag.com/article/in...09/01/18/35/31 There's also a 10th anniversary album listed for a 10/29 release. 2 versions, I don't know exactly what type of album it'll be though. |
Miliyah has such a good discography that I don't think I can even make a top 3 list lol. 20-CRY- is definitely number one though. God, that song.
|
New album announced
『MUSE』 2014.10.29 OUT 2CD+DVD SRCL-8643 ¥4,860 2CD SRCL-8646 ¥3,942 Quote:
