yay new thread

can someone post the HQ scans of the MOON singles or maybe you want to consider to add them on the 1st post ?

[AyUta]

Love the title Amai

[Amai Yume]

argh!!!
That's exactly what I was trying to do but I'm soo bad with images. I hope someone can post them because I just can't do it. I'm pretty sure I'm doing it right but they never show up...

Maybe I shouldn't have made this thread...although I do like the title
Thanks AyUta!!!

[KarenPang]

what do you mean you're bad at reflecting images ?

just type [IMG]url link of the pic [/IMG] that's it !

[Amai Yume]

yeah! That's what I did but it just comes up with as a small pic with an x on it like you can now see...
I'm doing exactly what you're saying and it won't come up

[KarenPang]

it's not working for me too , I think you have to get another link to post the pic

[Amai Yume]

Score!! It's finally working!!!
Okkk, we can talk about Kumi some more now...
I've recently been addicted to Star - for some reason, I've had the CD for like a year and never listened to the song in full...why is there not a full version of the PV?!!!

I still want Kuu and Tegoshi to collab since he's a fan of hers...that would make my life

I'm not sure why there weren't a full version of the Star PV , it will be fun to see what happens after that instead of just watching Koda sitting on the balcony sitting & singing at the same time

[aqua_crystal]

"Somebody saw you in the parking lot...." I love that song!!

[Amai Yume]

Until I sat down and watched the PV, I never noticed she was sitting on a balcony. I thought she was on a carousel...hehehe
I really think there should be a full video for Star. There is soo much she could have done with that video!!

It makes me sad

I know

it seems a bit wasted to put out a short version of the PV

[Amai Yume]

Yeah, if there's a short version of a PV then I would've assumed there would be a full version somewhere down the line but to no luck.

Daisuki da yo darrin!!
I love that line

I can't wait to see what she has in store for us next!!

lol that's my fave part in Star

I can't wait to see what she has in store for us next!!

[Amai Yume]

One of the best openings of a song....EVER!! hehehe and then I like it when she says it at the end of the chorus

I think we'll be getting some news of a new single like end of August, which is perfect I think

Ya know now that I think about it, MOON is a pretty good summer single. I mean we have the happy and poppy summer song Lady Go! and then Once Again, which is sooo relaxing and gives the image of a beach to me anyway and That Ain't Cool is like the song that people perform at Spring Bling or something lol

So I guess official Oricon Numbers!
Koda Kumi - Moon Crying - Number 2 - 88,309
Not bad, not bad at all

[AyuHamasaki01]

Yay for the new thread.

EDIT: I still want to reply on some post from the previous thread:

I know you agree.

Well, IMO, Kingdom has songs that you get tired of quickly if you repeat it too much. By me not doing that, I still enjoy it. Also, I'm totally googoo-gaagaa over the packaging. I must own it someday. *__* I would buy it from rikku but he's charging too much. @___@ (I understand why he did it tho.)

LOL, I agree with the repeat stuff.
Oh, and I own Kingdom CD+2DVD First Press, so be jealous Shannese

but I guess there are always song that we forget

I hope she will release something like Black Cherry.
That album never bored me.

As for Kingdom; Like Shannese said in the previous thread "you get bored when you repeat them too much" and I agree. Kingdom is a good album but not as good as Black Cherry IMHO.

The same for me. Exept LAST ANGEL and Black Cherry.

That Ain't Cool 99% will be on the next album. - It will unless if kumi surprise us and it won't.

XD

I think because she and FURBIE FERGIE are like, best friends, I'm sure she will put TAC on the next album. She doesn't want to dissapoint FUR....FERGIE.

At least we will be able to tell our friends that we like a japanese singer who's got a song with Fergie and show them the album's tracklist.

My friends would say ew fergie

The sad thing that even if they would like to hear it they would ask "ummm where's kumi singing?"

[AyuHamasaki01]

^LOL,

Spoiler:

friend: "where's Kumi singing?"
ayumisrael: "she got eaten by the FURBIE"

So, I say that Kumi will release 2 singles more before she will release a new album. What do you guys think?

at the spoiler

I think she will release 2/3.

I wonder if she will ever do like ayu did, releasing just 2 singles for an album.
Or 2 singles and 1 digital single.

[KarenPang]

I just hope she wouldn't be crazy & put out singles so fast & so quick last year ie. those singles that she put out which ended up on Kingdom .

The quality of the songs seem to suffer when she put out singles so fast like a every 2-3 months thing
