Hm, those titles don't match the descriptions of the songs, hah... Whatever. XP
Still all this best talk, lol? For those trying to back up Kumi, saying that she hasn't had that many bests, or that Ayu and others have had just as much.... Kumi didn't bring out a best until 2005, when she got popular (which is another reason it's so wrong--nobody even cared about Kumi much, prior to '05). And since then, she's had a best literally almost every year. Four bests in five years..... That's a lot! X_X Especially since all of them are either crappy bests or semi-bests. :\ I love Kuu, but the bests really piss me off. -.- And of course, we're almost guaranteed another next year for her anniversary, and that just sucks. Because she hasn't had that many songs, yet she'll put on just enough new crap to make me have to buy it if I want to keep up with collecting her main works.

^ omg the heart is still there XD I like the outfits though! Thanks Tsubasa
![]() ..... She has had too many compilations for just 5 years, but I don't consider them as BESTs. She needs to stop sticking BEST in the names for the sake of it. BESTs are like, compilation of greatest hits right? So that takes Bounce&Lovers and OUT WORKS out the picture for me. (Btw who says DRIVING HITS was a best? It was a remix album.) In BEST ~first things~, 4 of the tracks weren't even in the top 20 and only 8 of them were in the top 10. So I'm not really sure about that. maybe putting BEST glorifies the album or something. The only real BEST I'd say she's had is BEST ~second session~ cuz all 12 singles charted in the top 10 and 9 of them in the top 5. When she releases a new one for her 10th Anni, that would be a real one too cuz all her singles since ~ss~ were in top 5, mostly top 3. I dunno, that's just my view

Oh i love that picture!
![]() Love her hair, the dress and i love this ❤ on her nose on the funny side! xDDD i think nowadays the word BEST is not anymore just the best songs from an artist or selected ones! Look at hitomi shimatani's BEST & COVERS, Namie's BEST FICTION or BoA's BEST & USA... They're all Single Collections! i mean when she released BEST ~3rd ...~ it's will be a single collection from Black Cherry till current Singles! I think it's better to say Kuu has 2 Single Collections (first things/second session) and 2 Best's albums (BOUNCE & LOVERS/OUT WORKS)! So i wouldn't put them in 1 category! For me the only important "BEST" are the Single Collections! The other BEST's will be only important if they had something special with it! Edit: And i want my BEST ~3rd ...~ album! I love most of the singles from Koi no Tsubomi till now! And i had already the Promo Posters from first things and sesond session and when i get the promo poster for B~3rd ...~ i will hang them in a simple pearlwhite frame on the wall! Cause when i will live alone in a house i cannot have all my J-Pop Posters on all my walls like i had now! BUT i will have her 3 (or more if she had) Single Collections BESTs on the wall even in 10 years, just for the memory of the beautiful time i had with her music through all the years! Like a Kuu-Timeline on the wall! xD

^ Don't worry, you'll get your third best plenty soon enough!
![]() But yeah, bests are different nowadays. It's no longer a, 'hey these are this singer's best songs ever!!' sorta thing, but rather, 'hey here's a bunch of songs by this one singer!' So it can mean you're getting a singles collection (which has become today's "traditional" best), or it can mean you're getting a dozen top ten hits, or it can even mean you're just getting a random group of songs they thought worked well together, lol. -_-' Oy. I'm still hoping for a re-recorded REAL best. As in, a crap load of awesome songs that Kumi completely re-sings.

We know avex so this new BEST is nothing unexpected! xD Quote:
BUT maybe it's just the typical japanese english fault why a single collection, a themed compilation, number 1's summery or a selected songs album mostly had the word "BEST" in the title! I think the best thing for a 3rd BEST were this: Disc 01: CD/Singles Black Cherry+Kingdom Disc 02: CD/Singles TRICK+8th Album+Singles for this BEST Disc 03: CD/Re:recorded Versions of old songs like TAKE BACK, walk, real Emotion, etc. Disc 04: DVD/all the PV's and all in a special box like A COMPLETE, BUT without ugly looking CD's in it! EDIT: ![]() ![]() Hmm when i saw these pics from Namie's The Meaning Of Us PV... this came in my mind: Spoiler:

I think Tsubasa posted the ILoveKuu or KumiBrasil? ISO link but you'll have to register on the forum and post some stuff I think.

Well, she hasn't officially announced anything yet, but considering next year is her ten year anniversary, it's pretty safe to say they'll try to churn out a best. Plus, it'll have been a year since her last one, so of course we need another!! XD
