[Koda Kumi] Dancing In The Rain in her 172nd thread

[Minttulatte]

I'm ready for the new album, DH7 and other cool stuff that's coming this year!

[Gustavopc]

Global FC has been updated, but there's no sign of the DH-ish pic... There's just a post of Kuu and staff talking about tour goods, and news about Koda Kuma being avaible at a shop somewhere

[chocopockymaster]

Wow, how kind of them to give us the option to buy a membership card for the cool, cool price of ¥1,000!

lmao yeah i was like: what is this mess?
trolling with plush Kuma's #screamingtbh

well i'm really confused about the dh post...
i wonder if playroom has some exclusive content even the global can't see or if we get them even much later...

BUT on the good site...
when the album announcement is upon is we'll sure get everything from Covers to Tracklist to Goodies, etc

[maze]

such an horrid title *sigh*

[thinkingoutloud89]

^we have no title
we have nothing

[Gustavopc]

I'd be happy if we could get at least a date asap... As I'm probably getting more than one version, I need to plan my buyings

how would you define Cover then? Of course it is also a new version of a song, but since EVERYTHING (music, vocals etc) is changed, it is a cover ... whereas a new version keeps either (like my example, which keeps the vocals)

more over, a new version does not require the artist to lift a finger
a cover on the other hand rolls out a new process of recording, thinking about arrangments, sometimes even twisting the lyrics

For me, walk ~to the future~ is a new version of walk, not a cover.

And I go with the definition of cover by wikipedia: "In popular music, a cover version or cover song, or simply cover, is a new performance or recording of a previously recorded, commercially released song by someone other than the original artist or composer."

I mean, for me it's just a cover if it's sung by someone other than the original artist. In my mind, it's impossible for an artist to cover oneself, it sounds crazy for me that idea hahaha

[thinkingoutloud89]

^well....there are years between the songs, so I think you can cover yourseld (since the term self.cover album is ages old) and I still think my definition make sit pretty clear
of yourse it is also a new version in a way

This is usually the rule I go by. Since she resung the vocals and changed the arrangement, it's a cover. If it was the same vocal track that had an updated sound, I'd call it a remix.

lol 95music confirmed title and date
they are always very trustworthy and legit since many years!

like KuuxAyu-fan And Utena said, You can already preorder it in japanese shops (like Mika N.'s Album) and the next EXILE single... and both weren't announced yet which are coming on the same day!
so i think they havn't changed the date!

avex is just a bit lazy or they haven't everything ready, cause i believe when there's an announcement we'll get everything like Covers and bla

[Isicio]

^I remember the announcement of Bon Voyage and they put a promotional pic on her web first

[Gubsi]

^yupp!
Gossip Candy too and everyone was like urgh Gossip Candy THIS is so fake! lol

[Gustavopc]

I still remember when no one believed on the tracklist for TRICK :p "Bling Bling Bling"???? "This is not a love song"????? SO FAKE

[Isicio]

^I don't like A WALK OF MY LIFE title but maybe the covers are great

[chocopockymaster]

Okay I love Loaded, but this has been bothering me for the longest time--

The lyrics (at least, the ones on uta-net) say "G for Gin and tonic"...which is what it should be...but she's clearly singing "H for Gin and tonic" and, in the screen video during the Bon Voyage tour you can see it says "H for Gin and tonic"

Someone please explain this to me, for the love of all that is holy, because it's been driving me insane for almost a year now @__@

[ren'ai]

^ it drove me crazy too.. I finally decided that she's just too drunk in the song to remember the alphabet
