[Koda Kumi] The 155th Thread – New Single 「恋しくて」 (12.26)

[Gustavopc]

On the cover album... Do you guys find it possible that Kuu covers a Namie or ayu classic? I'd love to see Kuu singing Body Feels EXIT

Reading through the posts, I think I'll just recap for people slightly, as I think some are confused

- Koda is releasing a new cover album to celebrate her 13th anniversary which will be released sometime in February! So far the only tracks confirmed for it with previews are 'Shake Hip!' and 'Pink Spider' (Originally by Hide), however they should be releasing the preview of the 3rd song soon.

- There's going to be a PV for 'Pink Spider', where the PV is based on a Manga called '5 girls of Buffalo', which was a Manga that was never fully released back in the 1990's, but featured in CUTiE in 1999. However, it is said the first series/chapter will now be released January 8, 2013, shortly before the release of Kuu's album and 'Pink Spider'. So Kuu's PV is a live action PV of this series, and could be called a tie-in for the manga release, although I am not sure if it is officially.

- The series is about 5 prostitutes living in the American West during America's westward expansion. Two prostitutes, Candy (Who is played by Koda) and Suzie, escape their brothel and meet other prostitutes during their journey. The other prostitutes are casted by other famous singers and actresses in Japan, not Kuu's dancers.

- Koishikute is now being released on the 26th of December. There has been no other confirmation of any new singles yet, just the new Cover album, where the title has not been released yet.

- Unfortunately Kuu's live at Budokan (can't spell) was cancelled due to an Earthquake and Tsunami in Japan. So far there hasn't been any news of it being streamed again, or if it will.

Everyone might know what's going on already, just thought I would do a quick synopsis incase anyone missed anything.

Looking forward to the 3rd preview, I've loved both previews so far and I am excited for the PV! <3

Thanks for this summary
Also looking forward to the next preview!

@Ayu_Love The concert was fine, they only cancelled the stream sadly.

@Gustavopc: I don't think so, but I would die if Kumi sing my name's WOMEN someday.

Audio: All for you @ Premium Night (credits: julylovebrit@baidu - pass: lala): http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/wnEg6BAH22w/

The "instrumental" is great, so much better than the album version.

[Gustavopc]

^ Ooooh, I'd love to see that also

Chills @ this version of All for you, that's how the album version should have been. Even this rip sounds has a better quality than it lol And the instrumental is really great, love the drums and the backing vocals also

[Gustavopc]

Dont remember anyone posting this FNS perfomance here



I'm surprised Kuu perfomed 4 songs, that's like a record lol

Ah yes, sorry, I forgot to put 'online stream' in the sentence, done it now.

The FNS performances are awesome, that black dress is amazeballs!

Does anyone know where I can download the .TS ones? D:

[Bad Wolf]

I actually want Kuu to cover a DIR EN GREY song lol. that or BUCK-TICK's "JUPITER."

[maze]

Ayu_Love:: the ts files are in baidu and ilovekuu uploaded them too. she was so gorgeous and classy in all the performances. I always love these collaborations she does live

[Ayu_Love]

^Would you mind sending me the Baidu links? <3 I registered at Ilovekuu but it says I have to have 15 messages sent in order to access the forum or downloads, I thought it meant like, 15 forum posts but then I can't access the forum so I am not sure what that means D:

[freedreamer]

@Ayu_Love THANKS FOR THAT!!!

[happiholic★]

Thank you for all the info and links, everyone!!

[AyumiSEASONS]

Any news on a calendar for this year yet or no? o.o

[Minttulatte]

I can imagine Kuu singing Namie's RESPECT the POWER OF LOVE tbh. Or How to be a Girl. Or Don't wanna cry or... yeah,I can dream. 8D

I'd like Kuu also do a cover of a Hikki song, maybe First Love or Automatic. She would make them sound really interesting. *_*

Koda is releasing a new product; a new set of perfumes! She'll be releasing two perfumes, called 'Love Touch' and 'Love Note', Available to buy online!



I like the picture, very elegant! <3 Not sure if these are the same perfumes from the tour goods but bigger, but I'd love to get one!

[Bad Wolf]

If I wore perfume I'd definitely get this.
