probably because it isn't her release rather Lionel

so maybe she didn't know, like I said this is for the Japanese edition of his duet album so maybe on Itunes Japan,the regular one released here has this song with Shania Twain, he is also dueting with some member of Brown Eyed Soul from Korea, for the Korean edition

anyway me too I hope someone recorded it T___T

and she just recorded a new song, she said it is hot hopefully a new single soon


also I hope we get VIVID tour live dvd.............I always despised SONY for not making any for C'kay till her 10th anniversary


good thing about avex is even if you are a mega-flop if you go on tour they will release a dvd for it

........lol

and finally, it seems that Eyes on Me is gonna be on some Final Fantasy album, just happy a studio version of her version of Eyes on Me

I was pretty shocked when I saw that Crystal Kay was featured on Far East Movement's album.. but it's nice to see that they worked together with a JPop artist

I instantly bought the CD when I found out! (I'm so glad I did. Track 09, "Fly With U (feat. Cassie)" samples "L'amours Toujours"; such a club hopper). The track they did with Crystal was aight.

It speaks many truths.

I think if Crystal wanted to go overseas, she probably could. But in reality, the overseas market is much more difficult to succeed in.

I mean, does anyone remember Amerie? She was, in my opinion, -very- similar to Crystal. She was even Korean and African-American mix. But after very limited success, she's basically off the map now.

She still has a record deal, she's still working with good producers, even her videos are still really good quality.

Japan is just moving in a very different direction right now as opposed to, like the article stated, the early 2000's.

Of course if she went overseas I'd still support her, but I think that would send more of a message that it's impossible to succeed in this market if you don't look Asian and therefore you should stop trying.

I think what she needs is better tie ins and tv appearances. But for all we know, she could be very happy with what she has right now. Some artists prefer a more intimate connection to their fans.

I think the fact that she embraces both sides of the spectrum is what makes her special.

I love Crystal but I feel she lacks the "x-factor." She can be really basic at times. I feel like when you look at Ayu, Kumi, and Namie you can immediately sense that they are big stars just by looking at them and their charisma. I feel that's something not in Crystal. :/ Considering that I think she's had a lot of success over the years and I'm sure she's very happy with all shes accomplished already.

I disagree, look at Kana Nishino ,YUI and I dunno why you put Namie (well I guess maybe because older Namie was cheerful and grabbed attention, not the current Namie who looks dead and vancant)

but all three and more, exude zero charisma, sorry to their fans but that doesn't seem like a problem for C'kay who is always cheerful and interesting whenever she appears on TV or does live

I think she has had lots of success but I still think there was and is something that always held her back from being way bigger than she should be and that is addressed in the article,

I do think Kuri is happy,but if listen to her recent interviews she is well aware that her popularity in Japan is at its lowest and she needs to expand now since she is getting older

I really hope she can accomplish her international career dream

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

Crystal has been in NYC the last few days. If I were a die hard fan like I am with ayu, I'd go up and try to see her...but I feel like she wouldn't let any fans meet her. Booooo

Well Japan does say that they are a "one race" nation - it's not soo suprising

[setsuka]

that WOWOWOW live C'kay did is on Jpopsuki or you can painstakingly dl it on JPDDL

http://jpddl.com/music/189503-tv-mus...reeleech-.html

thinking of C'kay's Japanese career, she needs a good drama to sing the theme for..........ugh her label needs to get on it!

also love this time of the year, whips out Shining mini album to jam to all winter long~

It's true, it isn't surprising, but what the article mentions is really important to talk about, I think.

Crystal doesn't have to completely leave the Japanese music market.
She can try to make it here and then go back to Japan via 'a comeback'
At this point, anything is better than releasing albums and letting them flop.
With the right promotion, vivid could do great here. Forever is a great song, and it would sound nice both in English and on the radio.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

Thought the Daishi Dance track would be better.

Gonna grab that WOWOW live now~!

[TeamAyu2004]

is it out now??
must go look for it!

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

^Which are you referring to? Yes though, both are out. haha

[TeamAyu2004]

what else is there?

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

^That live she did on WOWOW, I'm downloading it from JPS now.
