[Koda Kumi] The 175th classy Koda Kumi thread!

[Miichan]

I really hope we get more remixes this year, I disliked Bon Voyage a lot but DH6 was one of the best albums of the year, I think remixes of Walk Of My Life tracks could make me like them too.

[happiholic★]

I can't watch tours anymore. Vine has ruined me for videos. 30 seconds or less, please.

[Minttulatte]

I don't think it's that obvious that there will be no DH7. It might still be coming, but they're releasing it later. AND there's also a possibility that Beach Mix 2 is on the way in place of DH7. When it comes to Kuu, it's not always easy to say what's gonna happen next. Like Beach Mix was a pleasant surprise that people weren't really expecting. I know I wasn't, and that's why I ended up becoming really excited over it. So I'd say that anything can happen.

True. Remixes aren't my thing but I'd take "Beach Mix 2" over "Driving Hit's 7" any day.

I like DH cause there's always the chance she can redeem herself with alternate and improved versions of songs that I just cannot stomach in their original form. I love DH simply for the fact that there are many songs in which I had absolutely no interest in that ended up flooring me with rearrangements. Usually the Ku songs I love in original form I dislike the DH versions of, but songs I hate in original form end up becoming something enjoyable at least. So it's like receiving new material for me.

This this this this. Sometimes even songs I do like turn out better, like Bounce!

The Bounce remix on DH3 was fantastic.

Kumi is the current queen of remixes, for me at least. There are several releases from her I wouldn't touch with a ten foot pole, but she remains my most listened artist because of her Driving Hit's albums.

TOUR STARTS TODAY CAN'T WAIT FOR THE SETLIST

[Zahara]

I just tried looking for Bounce on YouTube and instead found Bounce X Shake It Up mix that I'm bobbing my head to.

[attractive nausea]

At first listen i said i was disappointed with this album but i completely changed my mind, there isn't any song i feel like skipping when i listen to it, well part of it might be because they're all so short so you don't have to wait long until the next one starts. But i really enjoy all of the songs, some way more than others of course. I think she did a good job.

[Xianghua]

Hi guys! I'm actually pretty terrible at live reports and remembering set lists but I'll just post some info about today's show, until you can probably get a more concise report, lol.

Spoiler:

First of all, the goods line was the longest I've seen, so because of that I missed the first 2 songs. I got inside right as she came on stage. I looked up and saw her in a car in the air, but I was so overwhelmed with trying to find my seat that I don't know what was going on. When I got to my seat and calmed myself she was performing house party.

Small info:
-The movies during costume changes were about Kuu choosing her image. She was in this futuristic factory. She first selected a rock image. I had thought she'd do rock songs but then she performed hands. On later movies, she was picking her past images, they showed some past tours. But, she decided to create a new image and chose to fuse all of her of images together.

- the beginning of walk of my life, she played the intro on the piano.
-in dance in the rain, she did a bit of a tissue dance, like ayu at the premium showcase
-beginning of fake tongue, she played the drums, in the middle, she played the guitar!
- when the chose a member of the audience to come on stage, the fan was handed an invitation. On stage, she sat on a couch next to Kuu, who handed her a book of songs for her to pick. The girl picked futari de and Kuu sang that.

Since you know she performed songs from the new album, I'll list the ones not off the new one that I remember:
Shake it up
But
DDD
Hands
Futari de
Hot stuff
Gentle words
Be my baby
Freaky
Ningyo-hime
Taboo
Bring it on
Loaded
Walk
(There's more that I fail to remember)

The encore was a medley of lady go, wind, poppin love cocktail, some others I don't remember because she was on a moving part of the stage in the audience aisles and I was distracted by her butt in front of my face.

There's more details and songs that I can't remember right now, everything's a blur. Sorry!

[Gustavopc]

Let me ask you something in the spoiler...

Spoiler:

Kuu playing piano, drums AND guitar? Already in love with the tour Thanks for the info! Buy hoe much did she play of each instrument? JAPONESQUE Tour had a drums solo but I felt it was so short lol

I hope the tissue dance is more complex than the one did for Ningyo Hime during second session tour, that one was a bit meh imo

Spoiler:

You're welcome!She played rather short as well. Only the intro to WOML, and then her band took over. For the drums, I'm guessing about 30 seconds. The guitar she played a bit, and then later on some more but it was also brief. Not a full solo, lol.

I haven't seen second session tour, but this tissue dance seemed simple. She spun around mostly. It was still graceful though

[Delicious n Bold]

She's playing instruments? OMG she really is finally free. Next we're gonna get an acoustic album. Sleigh a bit Kumi.

[SKYia]

Thanks for the setlists

I'm glad all the songs I don't like are in one place, I'll just watch from hands and won't have to skip much (that's if I still don't like them after seeing it live, sometimes live performance makes me change my mind).

[Gustavopc]

I just realized there's no Ai no uta and Cutie Honey tHE LORD HEARD OUR PRAYERS

[Marcelo]

I was hoping more "older" songs and ballads, but I'm sure I'm the only one :'D

[lastminute]

OMG, I loved the setlist!!!
