great thread title! it's really cool :cool

Wow 67th already huh?

Anyway, showgirl and Driving have already been played so much, I need the rest of the album now!!

thank's cutie!

i can't wait for better quality of show girl & Driving my qualities kind of suck lol

they are pretty LQ but i'm not going to download any better quality ones until i get my copies because then i want to listen to the whole abum in rly hq! and don't worry, i'm going 2 send ur copy with OVERNIGHT SHIPPING bc i'm such a nice person :)

:heart thank u! ok! i will wait.. this will be Hard though

thanks!! i know lol.

woots...I m back after a mere 2 hours and new thread already...I need TRICK

I know but it wouldn't be long til TRICK's out

well make that 23 days more :laugh

I know damn @_@

haha

ok that does it I'm going to buy the Taiwan press of it when it's out since it's so much faster than waiting for Warner Music S'pore to issue it here :eviltongu

somemore if you're under avex , chances of avex Taiwan rolling out the OS presses of your stuff are faster , like probably less than a week after the release date in Japan

now why can't they reopen an avex office here bah :dead2

wow new topic already!!

i agree with everyone else i want trick now

but before that let's await the PVs for show girl & JUST THE WAY YOU ARE :yes

23 days left for the album and there's still a lot to look forward to! both show girl and JUST THE WAY YOU ARE videos and previews for the rest of the songs... maybe even full versions of more? who knows.

OP looks very nice now, good job!

i agree, its look really great! :luv2

Oh good! There are at least a decent amount of album tracks! :D I always get excited for those. :)

thx guys! i hope her new magazine shoots are cool!

not sure if this has been posted but Ai no Uta ranked at #5 in CDTV Premier Live 2009 - Karaoke Top 10 Ranking list .

Yay for new thread! I'm like trying very hard to not listen too much of show girl and Driving in case I get tired of it before I even get my hands on the album :eviltongu

I don't know if this has been posted, but the rumored single was fake, it was actually a VA album (that features Kuu):

Release Date: 2009/03/04

http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=AVCD-23780

Edit: Also, yay for a new thread... :luv2

cool. New thread!

I can't wait to watch her full show girl pv. and the special live seems nice =)

The album, PV's, and concert better be damn good.

That album wasn't cheap XD So I am expecting a LOT from the album.

I found a pic of the February cover of Scawaii:

Damn, the cover is HOT!!... :P Love, love, love the outfit... :luv2

i don't like that outfit at all.
hopefully inside pics are better..

that outfit is so tacky :no i hope that's not the only outfit she's wearing in the photoshoot.

^Ia! I like the colors but the patterns don't go together plus the outfit makes Kuu look a bit chunky. Let's move away from the Fergie look now kuu. :yes

ok phew that's a relief of sorts :laugh

I don't know about you but I actually like it , it looks mis match & etc but somehow she managed to work it in her favor .

& oh ya stay with me was aired earlier on MTV China :D

oh.. that is a simple cover.

Kuu's outfit doesn't seem nice imo.. hahaz.

Yaaaaay New Thread And hot title I Love it !

Her pants Is i think from John Galliano

Watch the Fiace CM here:

http://video001.interco.mobi/fiace00.../cm30_005.html

Your Love sounds great... :yes

Dude I have seriously gotten addicted to Kumi, I play her songs like everyday. She is in a lot of my graphics, I keep on searching videos of her and searching for her shoots on google!. Well that just may be because I am bored a lot, ha ha.

Woooo for her 67th thread, I hope she does succesfully with Trick!.

By the way I looked on her website and there is a preview for Trick and the DVD of the concert, and wow I really wanna see that, Damn!.

The cover is also very hot, ha ha.

Your Love sounds like I might like it. Kind of reminds me of Always a little bit but Always being better :( Still, I am looking forward to this album like mad-crazy.

Checked out the Official Website. The show really looks great! I especially like all the trancey/dancey instrumentals they are using - hopefully they are from some of the remixes or from TRICK!

Your love.. :no sounds normal & boring..
well.. maybe i need to hear the full song first..
still 23 days to go :thud

Na Na It's So cute and Lovely Than Always

I Think It's Look like anytime ^^

LOL @ outfit. Polka dots blouse + pink newspaper-print tights + chunky thighs FTW!

And actually I've not heard Driving or show girl yet... I'm gonna control myself like how I did with Kingdom. =)

P.S: Nice thread title!

Dots are like the "in" thing now..I think it's kinda ugly too. Ayu's photoshoot when she wore dots was kinda bleh imo. but yeah

Trick album Interview by Kuu

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ed0AypPGKNk

Your Love sounds really nice :yes
And I dunno what to think about the cover, I guess it's cool.

her thighs are far from chunky.

The preview for 'Your Love' is sounding bland =\ Hopefully the full version will be better.

your love sounds great! kind of r&bish and cute :yes


driving, show girl, your love... this album is really, really shaping up to be nice.

your love sounds like the most boring thing ever omg
i hope the full version is better because wow

I know right? Haha. But well the tights are pink... bright colored clothing also makes you look bigger. I don't mean any evil meanings when I said that...

67th thread for Kuu? Awesome.

And yeah, I've been away. Not that someone would miss me that much but anyway. :D

I heard that there's full versions for show girl and Driving. That's nice. But I'm not going to listen to those yet, because I wanna hear all the new songs at once when the album comes. It's just a few weeks for it. <3

Wow, the title is really ugly and weird. o_O

Break it down? How is that a song from TRICK or w/e..

^ Why does it matter? :shrug

Break it down is one of her older cooler songs, but if you want to associate it with TRICK, she says it in show girl :)

Break it down is awesome, one of my fav songs on feel my mind :yes

Your Love sounds alright from that preview too

btw, nice thread title part of me! was hoping for a title like this :D

thanks!! feel my mind is actually a really awesome album!
Rock Your Body, Break it down, Without Your Love, Gentle Words, Rain :heart

Finished watching JWAVE. Kuu's sang Lady Go!, Won't Be Long, Once Again, and Girls. Nothing special about the performance, tbh.

your love sounds really good!!!! sounds kinda summery though T_T and it's dead of winter now hahahah!

but i'm so excited for TRICK!!!
and the s cawaii cover is so hot :D i like her outfit ^_^

yeah that's pretty old right? i remember not liking it much

Woah new thread already! Have any of the full PVs for the album been released besides the singles of course...?

wow! new thread already?! ^_^ hot title too
and she's doing tons of shoots this month...i so look forward to this

not yet, jbrat!

It aired this month but it reminded me of that Girl Pop Factory performance. Just a different dress. Pretty much the same setlist too.

i liked girl pop factory so i would probably like jwave. where did you watch it at?

Downloaded it by BT. Took forever because the same guy that uploaded Ayu's Asia Tour TV uploaded this. But there are more seeders now so it shouldn't take long.

For some reason I feel like I'm waiting for Driving's PV but I know it's not on the DVD tracklist xD; I guess because it and show girl were the main preview tracks...

Your Love sounds like it'd be right at home on Kingdom >.>...

She reads my posts! =3

Ooh, she says break it down now in show girl. Are you sure it's not BRING it down now? xD

I love Your Love, it's so sweet. <33

sometimes i will, i usually regret it though :P

really? it sounds like break it down now to me!

i don't really like the sound of your love, it's boring :/. i'll have to wait for the full song, though.

Are they saying "Driving Techno" at the start of Driving?

i like Your Love even though it doesn't sound that exciting from the preview. it's only 15 seconds though, so who knows. i like the lyrics though. "Baby thank for you for your love" and "Baby nobody but you" :heart

Her English sounds pretty good in the preview two, a lot better than it was

I heard '' driving to go''
:shrug


didn't hear the preview, will listen to it tomorrow :D
is it a ballad? or more in the style of tsuki to taiyou ?

I decided that Love Across the Ocean is amazing tonight. I want another song like it <3

Your Love sounds bland...which was what I tot show girl will be...but Then again, i didnt find show girl preview very bad.

Noooooo Kuu dun spoil the album plz...It's definitely gonna be the Tsuki to taiyou and Himitsu of the album...seeing where it's placed

^Don't compare Tsuki to Taiyou to Himitsu ._.... Tsuki to Taiyou was good.

^ lmfao. So true. Although Himitsu was better than Tsuki.

I like Himitsu and Taiyou lol

Is this YOUR LOVE preview on her site?

^Page Two, it was posted in a CM

Yeah I do think that Your Love's pretty bland too =\ Hopefully the full song will be nice though something tells me it probably wouldn't...

According to FC and Rumchiro, Koda Kumi Live Tour 2009 ~Trick~ is between April 11th to June 13th with only 14 dates. Isn't that a little short for a tour? How long was KINGDOM's tour?

I love Tsuki to Taiyou and Himitsu. They both are awesome. I think I like Himitsu more since it's a lot newer ballad than Tsuki to Taiyou, but latter seems more popular. I remember that all the japanese went nuts when she sang this song in Tokyo Dome concert. :)

woah guys from the sound of things you all don't seem to like the preview of Your Love ?

luckily I haven't listened to the preview yet so phew :laugh

Hhaha! sory to compare it to those two...but its just that..they werent my favs...and i just kept skipping them so thats why

I haven't heard Your Love preview yet, because I don't want to. :) I'll wait for the album with all of the full versions of new songs.

well so far I have been real impressed with show girl & Driving , I hope TRICK wouldn't disappoint & will deliver the goods

I dunno if it has been posted before you can purchase the Kingdom tour goods on YesAsia now.

:yatta

^ thanks Kris & sorry but what on earth's a leisure sheet ?! :roflmao

do they mean blanket instead ?

^I have no idea what it is either, I was wondering the same.

those goods are awesome ;o
i would love to have that light stick, it's so cool !
and that phone strap is cool too :)

I absolutely love Bling Bling Bling feat. AK-69. That song is awesome.
Joyful is okay I guess but Bling Bling Bling is awesome.

(yeah, go check out the Download section kids :P)

EDIT: (and don't forget what your mommy told you, always be nice so leave a comment :))

Yaaaaaaaaay Blingyyyyyyy my lovely Fly to download section

Bling Bling Bling is seriously catchy. I loooovvee it.

Baby What i want is Bling Bling Bling !!!!!

I Love it TRICK is BEST EVER !

Joyful so cutie i love it it's not bored but seriously it's really lovely

I'm looking foward to this album !

i love it

wow - for the first few seconds in Blingx3 I though I was listening to Fergie's London Bridge and I hate that song.

Joyful on the other hand is pretty nice. I didn't like the preview at first but once again - the full version changed my mind =D

joyful is nice, nothing amazing. i dunno why it got over 4 minutes, though, lol. :P

but BLING BLING BLING = LONDON BRIDGE LONDON BRIDGE LONDON BRIDGE :laugh seriously, she must have gotten a few tips from fergie or something, haha. but i love it :P

Bling Bling Bling sounds hiliriously good :laugh
I love it!!!
Maybe the best new track on TRICK (as expected) but hopefully there will be more like that.
Show girl sounds nice+, Driving sounds nice and Your love sounds nice-.
Joyful is a filler cute song, I'm not excited about this song at all and it's the type that sometimes can get on my nerves.
I just hope that at least 2 other songs will be urbanish.

I was looking forward to Bling x3 and I'm still holding out on a more clearer version. I didn't like what I heard. Your Love and Joyful sound all right. Nothing amazing.

oh my GOD
BLING BLING BLING IS AMAZING O M G

ALL THE MONEY MONEY MONEY JUST MAKIN LOTS OF CA$H :cool

I was seriously relieved when I heard Bling Bling Bling. I was REALLY worried that it was going to be good.

Now I can not buy TRICK and rest easy >.>... Joyful was borderline decent, but just by the skin of it's teeth. Bling Bling Bling is AWFUL.

joyful sounds rly good too! i won't have to worry about overplaying these though bc the quality really stinks lol

i LOVE joyful, it's really sweet :love
i dont know what to say about BBB though :P i think i have to hear it in HQ..
