Random comment, but I have to say, after I saw Kumi live at Osaka, I've found love towards her again! It was gone for years, I only listened some song after universe, didn't really care for dejavu or wasn't really that interested anymore, Japonesque went really past me and first only liked Imagine from Bon Voyage. Didn't like WOML at all first except the cover shoot, and when I booked my Japan trip and wondered should I go see Kumi, then I thought the tour was going to be like Ayu's 15th anni tour with almost classics only I thought that then for sure I'm going to Osaka before Tokyo to see Kumi, since I've liked her since FF X-2.
Then the tour tittle "changed" (wasn't this the case, that it then became more like a promo tour for WOML, when people first thought it was going to be a best of kinda tour?) and I was like oh shit I should go to see Kana instead wherever she performs :'D but decided to go with Kumi.
She is SO CHARISMATIC LIVE, her presens is really something, and she looks INCREDIBLE! I mean really, people really can't hype enough how she looks live! In youtube live videos etc it kinda looks that her head is really big and her expressions look goofy, but live SHE'S REALLY LIKE A SEXGOD Ö___Ö her body confidense shows through! Been listening the recordings I took from the show still, her vocals are so great live, and what a jam BE MY BABY turned out to be for me, it's awesome live!
After that I really started to like WOML as whole and much more of the albums I missed, now been really into her remix albums, Beach Mix is a really great gym album, though they all work great for that!
And I'm really liking her take on Sayonara no Mukougawa <3
All in all really happy I "found" Kuu again after years
