[Koda Kumi] Walk of Kuu's Life in her 173rd thread!

[Utena]

I don't really like the Fanclub cover sadly :/
But wow, so many new songs, and the full concert on DVD! So nice, I wish they used the cd+dvd cover for the FC version but oh well :p

Is there someone who's gonna do a group order this time? I would be interested. Or if there's someone who's willing to help me, I might offer a nice deal that includes not using Tenso or any other paid middleman services. (If your subscription is with the Japanese Fanclub, not too sure about the Global one)

[ren'ai]

Finally! So many new songs and WALK OF MY LIFE sounds so lovely!

But wow those covers... i actually hate them and i don't think I've ever hated kumi covers before. A real let down for me, i expected a lot more for her 15th anniversary album

[Kouyou]

!!!!!
I'm so excited for this! So many new tracks! Kuu looks beautiful on the album covers, although to me it looks like she's squinting a bit in some of the shots. The FC edition is definitely superior in terms of DVD content. If I were a member, I'd get that version, but I think I'll just be getting the CD-Only for now. I wish there were more PVs!

The covers are very classy, i like some of the previews, not very fond of WALK OF MY LIFE. Plus the english accent in it makes me cringe. Just sing it in japanese girl.

The only bad thing about this album is that I feel it's going to be like TRICK: a lot of potential with good songs but only few PVs.

The tracklist is kinda crazy, but Kuu always had songs with titles that are kinda weird (This is not a love song / life / BUT / Lick me) so I don't mind. The Introduction title probably will change though.

Sometimes dreams come true sounds nice!
PIECE IN THE PUZZLE isnt too bad too
Lippy and House Party are abit..well alright

I hope for a really varied and powerful album. the demos mostly are fun tracks, although quite westernized..I hope more really beautiful ballads like back in Black Cherry days hahah (NEEDS ANOTHER YUME NO UTA)..Walk of my life sounds really promising for me

[Gustavopc]

Just noticed there are no feats announced for this album :/ I hope there are some and they'll add them later

[Corvina]

The description of the album says, it will have an aggressive sound.
And genres mentioned are "ballads, Pop, Hip Hop/R&B and more".
Though WALK OF MY LIFE is also called a ballad there and imo it sounds much more midtempo or even upbeat.
Considering Dance In The Rain is described as a ballad as well, I'm not too sure if there will be a classic ballad on the album.

[Gustavopc]

Did they specify the size of the PB already? I hope it won't be like JAPONESQUE, that was TOO big... Hopefully it'll have the same as Color the Cover size

[Corvina]

No, not yet.
But both DVD and Blu-Ray version covers are lengthy.
It really depens on the size of the photobooklet.

[Luck16]

Loving everything <3 the covers are stunning and she looks gorgeous!
I'm not listening to these demos just yet, I prefer to wait and be surprised.
Sad there's only 5 PVs but oh well, I guess it was to be expected.

[Isicio]

The XXXXXL horrible jacket and this hairstyle what the fuck? D:
By the way, why they can't choose better photos of all off this photoshoot? MY GOD!

[DevilsClap]

I really like the CD only Cover for this release <3
as far as the songs go.. WALK OF MY LIFE is the only thing I like so far and the other previews you guys posted don't really do it for me yet.
But I'm just gonna wait and see

[rookies]

Wow, the covers look amazing!

My favourite is the CD+LIVE DVD FC Version. She looks totally beautiful in the cover. . And so many new songs, yes!

[orangeakira]

Oh god House Party is terrible. It sounds like something from the 90s. It features that crap that I never wanted to hear again like "the roof is on fire" and "everybody say woah" "woah". It also sounds like that crappy family friendly wedding mix music that they play at the reception that no one would willingly listen to on their own.

Lippy (whatever that means) is whatever, the Jessie J song is really good, and Piece in the Puzzle is also whatever.

[Tom Punks]

Damn the demos are AWFUL. I can't believe anyone would actually buy those songs. Lippy is just noise, House Party is tacky as hell, PIECE IN THE PUZZLE isn't heinous but it's not really interesting either. And that tacky Jessie J demo. God no. I'm so scared for this album now

The covers are awesome at least... But covers don't make up for songs that sound like they walked out of 2004. :\

[Corvina]

There are still 8 other new songs to look forward to.

Lippy is awful, but apart from that I really like those demos.

[Gustavopc]

^ This. Plus, these are demos, I remember that the So Nice demo was TERRIBLE and was very different from the final song (which got even better at JAPONESQUE Tour)

[kaled kalil]

I think the demos are great, loved all of them.
You guys have to keep in mind that the demos are LQ, and it's far away from being done. The demos of Lollipop, Run For Your Life and So Nice are unfinished (obviously), and the final songs are awesome.
I'm used to listen to demos, so I can see the potential of the song, and for my taste, those songs are fire.

[Kouyou]

I'm not gonna listen to the demos. They create a false expectation of what the final cut will be like, whether good or bad. I wanna go into WALK OF MY LIFE with a positive attitude. It is her 15th anniversary, after all.
