It always makes me lol when I see people saying Kuu's new music is too American. For me, Kuu has had that American vibe in her music since the release of That Ain't Cool, and that was in 2008. After that she has become more and more influenced by American music. Personally I like that about her. I've never liked J-Pop singers who are too Japanese. Kuu and Namie are people who could make music in the US and be popular as hell and I like that. I've said it a couple of times but I say it again. Westernized J-Pop is the best imo.

As for Lalalalala and TOUCH DOWN I love both songs so much I can't even express it with words. I don't really like rock music anymore as much as I used to but there's always something about Kuu rock that makes me crazy over her rock songs. I'm not sure what it is, but I don't mind. Kuu nails everything anyway. XD PVs were amazing too. I kinda saw some Black Cherry era vibes here too btw, and it made me love these songs more. XD I can't wait to hear the last song, which will probably be a ballad or some midtempo pop song like IN THE AIR. Kuu usually has either of those on her summer singles so I'm curious. Maybe I will end up being wrong and there will be another kick ass dance song but tbh I'd like to have a midtempo pop song too. Something like IN THE AIR. That song is so gorgeous♥
