AyuGAME · #3 17th January 2008, 04:29 PM

i love her style and the cover...
the song is ok...the pv is ok but its cool and unique
she remind me of shiina ringo...
looking forward for her release

drewbilation · #4 17th January 2008, 04:34 PM

I really like the song and PV. <3 Her voice kinda reminds me of YUI's.

Dreamwriter · #5 17th January 2008, 08:01 PM

I like her voice and I like her english but... she has kumi-like claws lool

AyUta · #6 18th January 2008, 07:42 PM

She's alright, but she reminds me a lot of YUI. I liked the PV though

JesA · #7 19th January 2008, 05:01 AM

hmm i like her better than YUI haha....YUI's voice annoys me....

i may actually try her single when it comes out...

KuroixShiroi_Namida · #8 19th January 2008, 06:46 AM

Nice, i can hear some YUI/Aikawa Nanase in her voice XD!

At first signt I thought she was going to be dance-pop or something. The songs really nice...

Definitely interested. :]

Foxxy_Fuyumi · #10 22nd January 2008, 04:51 PM

YEAHHH I SAW THAT PV last week and I love the song so much!
I wanted to request but then I thought " No one knows her...maybe I request later..."
But I see I am not alone!
Anyone has the single or at least a PV RIP?

Alessia_Tateno · #11 23rd January 2008, 12:28 PM

I really like the song and the pv, can't wait for the single to leak!

sora-kara · #12 23rd January 2008, 06:10 PM

the video is really neat.

the song is ok, but the chorus is broken.
theres an awkward time change where everything jumps a beat.
that bugs me.

I noticed the chorus was a little akward too.

But, over all I love it. I can't wait to hear what she will come out with in the future.

Its funny that her song is rock-ish, but on her website it says she likes Hip-Hop. Perhaps her future songs will use more hip-hop?

I didin't like her voice... she sounds like mexican singer Belinda

xCHELLy · #15 31st January 2008, 04:20 AM

Yeah I don't really like her voice either, but the song's alright. I'll keep a lookout for her.

CHE.R.RY · #16 31st January 2008, 05:42 AM

Eh, I don't really care for her, but thanx for sharing ^.^

happiholic★ · #17 31st January 2008, 08:34 PM

I think a big problem with her voice is her use of Engrish. It makes most Japanese singers sound weird.

aerisgrainsbourg · #18 1st February 2008, 12:56 AM

Love Her!
She will be in MF today I think.

Here is a tracklist and lyrics

Tacklist:
1. I (here is a pv rip for Foxxy F. DOWNLOAD)
2. In Stereo
3. Just a friend

I"

Darling, I am here now. soba ni isasete
saishuu basu mo ki ni naranai kurai
netemo sametemo Do you always love me?
nee oshiete ippun ichibyou (I always) feel restless.

kakete kokete naite emotion tomerarenai naze
namida drop in a mirai no ocean Ready to this hand 'Escape' SOS!!

I don't wanna know umetsukushite yo
I don't wanna know kimi no subete
I don't wanna know kawari nante inai desho?
I don't wanna know ano ko no ato
I don't wanna know ki ni narun da
I don't wanna know zutto hodokenai you hanasanai de hanarenai de

dorehodo no koi ai wo ajiwatte
ima watashi wo dakishimetekureta no darou

shireba shiru hodo kizutsuiteiku
aishou uranai hito wa yowai saki no mienai strange
hiki devil nuku? 'angel' hoshu mousou Gate...I fall
hiki angel nuke! 'devil' kattou
Ready to this hand 'Escape' SOS!!

I don't wanna know umetsukushite yo
I don't wanna know kimi no subete
I don't wanna know kawari nante inai desho?
I don't wanna know ano ko no sonzai*
I don't wanna know ki ni narun da
I don't wanna know koko ni tsunagu tame no kako na no ni kako dake to

asu ga iya ni nattara iesutadei** makimodoseru?

I don't wanna know donna fuan mo
I don't wanna know mitsumeteiru yo
I don't wanna know kieru koto wa nai desho?
I don't wanna know subete no ato
I don't wanna know umetsukushite yo
I don't wanna know zutto hodokenai you hanasanai de hanarenai de

Darling, I am here now. I always love you

*the kanji for it is apparently sonzai, but she seems to say "kage" or something
** iesutadei = yesterday

"In Stereo"

It's kinda frightening, but kinda good.
My body's moving like I knew it would
I feel it coming, I feel it coming uh oh.
(It's kinda frightening, it's kinda frightening)

It's in the rhythm, it's in the mix.
I get a feeling too good to resist.
I feel it coming, I feel it coming uh oh
Oh baby here we go!

*Oo-ooh boy hit me in stereo,
Gimme the beat below.
It gets me good, it gets me good you know.
Oo-ooh boy kick it to overload.
Hit me good, hit me hard,
Turn it up, (up) in stereo.※

(Now) Don't try to fight it-you'll never win.
You can't deny it when it's takin you in.
I feel it coming, I feel it coming uh oh
Oh baby here we go!

*Repeat x3

Oo-ooh boy now that You got me close,
You got me good to go!
There aint no use, I can't refuse you-oh
Oo-ooh boy we're gonna loose control
From the front to the back,
Turn it up, (up) in stereo.

"Just a friend"

After school daremo inai kyoushitsu
ichinichi wa Instant nami ni sugisatta
aa demo nai kou demo nai jooku kawashite
kimi to no kyori (aida?) hakatteru no

What can you do for me?
dokomade chikazuite ii?
What can I do for you?
motto hora iki ga tsumaru hodo
dakishimetai kedo
You're my friend.
Yes, my friend.

hitori heya no tenjou no hoshi
miageru hi wa sabishiku naru kedo
inemuri suru kimi no tonari de
Without saying to nobody
keshigomu de "I like you"
It's a secret.

After that koboredasu kimochi
nodo no oku no hou made tsumekondeitara
tsugi ni dasu kotoba wa sora futte umaku
dore naku natteku Communicate with you

What can you say for me?
itsumo doori de
What may I say to you?
motto honshin sunao na mama
tobikondeikitai kedo
I tell a lie well,
cause you're my friend

hitori wa oreteshimaisou de
kono tenohira yosora ni kasanete
asa ga kite ki ga tsukeba
tonari no seki de mata inemuri shiteru

Lalalalalaha…lalala
My message is in your heart now.
Dadatalatalalatala
kotoba ni naranai seion ni nosetodoite

aitai toki aeru no ni
sono mune toosugite furerarenai
inemuri suru kimi no tonari de
Without saying to nobody
keshigomu de "I like you"

doushitemo koerarenai
kabe nara sore de mo ii
soba ni iru onaji jikan
"I like you" Keep my love close.
nanigenai koukan no naka
Special friend of mine.
My friend. Forever and a day.
All night long…

Also she relesed I tunes only English version of I named I don't wanna know.
