[Koda Kumi] The 150th Thread - Best Hits Summer

[Delicious n Bold]

^ Random Engrish like the "Oh just a fart" from "love across the ocean"?

That is Koda Kumi's best Engrish to date. Still doesn't top any NamieEngrish.

The "crap your hands" in Twinkle is still the greatest Engrish blunder of all time, for me.

No, nothing beats "that I am not a gnome" on real Emotion (Engrish Version). Btw there used to be a subbed video of it in YT, it was just beyond epicness

[happiholic★]

^I remember that. I giggled at it while my best friend gave me funny looks.

[jean-baptiste]

The lyrics to life seems like it could be a graduation song. I don't think the engrish in the song are random at all.

Koda Kumi in Brazil

[Delicious n Bold]

LOL Kumi flopped cuz she didn't know where brazil was!

[happiholic★]

What was she saying about Jamacia at the beginning of the video? Did she not know it was either?

Also, look at her fighting!!!

I always thought Namie's English was very good in her songs?

Thanks for the link! I haven't seen the last half of it yet.

Wait guys, so Whatchu Waitin' On? is a new song? O_O

[kaled kalil]

^ Yes, and also a new PV.

Guess Avex is gonna start doing playbuttons more often now. Do we know what kind of song Whatchu Waitin' On is? I want it to be a booty-bumper like JUICY, Shake it, BUT, or TABOO. <3

For some songs, yes. More than half the time, I understand Koda better. The beginning of Only You was horrendous: I thought she was saying something about limes.

But at least Koda's Engrish is cute funny. Namie's is more like wtf. People keep saying that she says 'love like you can't breathe' in YEAH-OH. I listened to that song over 200 times (that part) and I never heard 'breathe'.

Here is the preview someone posted a few pages back in this thread.

^^Thanks for that!

It's a tad more clubby than I'd like, but I'm glad it's upbeat and NOT too bubblegum. yay!

I said this before and I'll say this again I never liked Kumi with short hair. I love everything about her, but not short hair.
She had long hair for 6 years (since the moment I became her fan) and then suddenly she cut her hair and dyed it blond. I was like OH MAH GAWD, is this an April prank or... no it's not her. I just got used to it, but I still don't like it.

Ayu's case is different. Her hair was long, short, long, short, long, long, short, short.

And thanks for the lyrics translation ren'ai! I'm loving this song.

Speaking of Kuu's English 'sukirusu', for the longest time I didn't know that feel's chorus was entirely in English. The only part I understand was "dancing inside me" and I only think that's what she was saying.

Same here. And there are many songs like that.
Crazy 4 U subbed intro from Gilgamesh: it's all game. actually -> it's love game.
One night romance "and I'm going to make you see." okay...
ECSTASY laid back -> remake.
Under dadada - Under-der-der or Unda-da-da ?? / tactics understanding?
Lay Down damage on the wall -> I'll lay down the law
etc... but yeah, her Engrish is always cute.

Namie's English was amazing in WILD, work da middle middle like, look at me. lips, checks, freaks, shorts, freeze.

btw thanks for that video in Brazil! She's simply hilarious, love my girls Kuu.

She's saying laid back????? Wow. Just, wow. Reminds me of the epic mixup in Lollipop. "I touch your booty/Dodge the bullet".
