inside is supposed to be full of representative sounds of Kuu's old hits and nostalgic sounds, but in a more mature way.
- even though most peope are listening on shuffle on their own these days, Kuu wants to keep to make full concepts with songs, their order, the content and the visuals.
- BRIDGET SONG is like an adult version of anytime.
- Yorokobi no Kakera is actually an old song she made in the past and it's from the same writer as Ai no Uta and WIND. So a signature Kuu sound for the public would probably be from him (Kosuke Morimoto).
- outside is full of western urban sounds as she considers those her roots.
- they shot all the 6 PVs in two days.
- she needed a year to produce both albums.
- she went to NY and LA in a short time to watch Beyoncé and lots of other shows to get inspirations for her shows.
