Haha Great I'm not the only one:-)
I Love that song, too. Especially because some parts sound like Mario Kart!
I thought about Mario Kart the moment I heard it^^

[Gustavopc]

omg I though I was alone, it reminds me of Mario Kart as well, and when I told this to my cousin he looked at me like "wut did u smoke dude?" "

Dejavu is very underrated imo. It's a very solid album, and except for Melting, I love all songs there. It has something that makes me love it just like feel my mind

[ayu_ready?]

EDGE STYLE is gyaru mag and I'm sure Kuu is considered gyaru as much as Ayu, still. Ayu is still gyaru icon for Popteen no matter how much time has passed, lol. and Kuu was in all gyaru mags in 2006-2007. then she became all sporty colorful but now she's like back to basics and I'm glad she's there.
she was on cover for JELLY, another gyaru mag, don't forget.

what's wrong with PV? what do you expect from a Pv for a song that is supposed to be support for those who suffered?? I think it's logical that for Kuu support=her songs & performances, haven't she said that in all interviews,huh.

[Gustavopc]

I was expecting a simple PV, cuz hey that's a b-side after all, but it looks awful putting the studio album + live footage. I'd loved the live audio in the PV, but the studio one killed the video for me...

[Minttulatte]

I've never understood the hate for Dejavu but I know that when her next album is released, everyone says "Dejavu was so much better than this!"

[Corvina]

Not a fan of the Edge Style cover.
But the inside pics will probably be better.

Really like that they took live footage for You are not alone PV, but I would prefer the live version audio with it as well.
Why changing the arrangement of the song and the single tracklist if they take the live footage from the tour performances anyway?
Sometimes Avex is just stupid. XD
Just hoping it wasn't Kuu's idea with the PV being like that just like with the new arrangement.
I guess Kuu was like "I want a new happy and encouraging arrangement!" and then Avex asked themselves what they should do with the PV. XD


4 TIMES 3rd week sales:

FANTASIA's still on charts? Cool! ^___^

About You are not alone PV. Maybe we should wait till we get the full version before judging it as crap? <3

[kaled kalil]

Dejavu is too much solid imo. I mean, don't have any 'new style' of song or something really interesting (like This is not a love song / TRICK, MORE / Kingdom or Work it Out / UNIVERSE). It's a good album, but just that.

About the PV, I wasnt expecting a great pv, but at least something new, not a cut of a concert with playback and black & white.

^ I would argue Okay is something new. It's my favorite track on the whole album.

I don't understand, I thought everyone was so obsessed with Dejavu? I remembering everyone raving over the whole thing acting like it was the best thing she ever put out and I definitely did not agree. It got old VERY quickly. Like after two or three listens I was like "Okay" - literally, I was thinking "hm, let's listen to Okay - it's the only one I truly truly love" lol.

I wouldn't say Okay is something new. It's just like, a much better version of No Way.

[Kingdom]

Dejavu is one of my favorite albums... From start to finish I love the whole thing.

[do it again]

Random but when I get in a certain mood I love to listen to Kumi's quiet ballads... listening to Candle Light right now and it's so beautiful. Pearl Moon next....? Yes, I think so!

[adantatu2]

I think Deja vu got the best singles, is a good album

[Minttulatte]

I will sound like a stan but to me Dejavu isn't old at all. It's just as new as it was when I first heard it in March.

THIS!

[jiarongisme]

Dejavu is like, my favorite Kuu album along with Black Cherry. <3

[jbrat2219]

Dejavu is definitely one of my favorites, but nothing will take Kingdom's crown.

[Lady~Deviance]

Dejavu was the album that restored my faith in Kuu music wise. Dejavu imo was a hell of a lot more impressive than the two albums preceding it. It does not top Black Cherry or Kingdom, however it is a great album to me.

+1 Kingdom is so supreme

[Tom Punks]

I'm not really a big fan of Dejavu. I can listen to it when I'm doing something else, but there's only two songs on it that I particularly like/can remember by name/would go out of my way to listen to (Lollipop and Bambi... and maybe POP DIVA once in a while). The album just sounds like UNIVERSE part 2 to me but with less songs I care for.

But I also think Kingdom is really boring and bland, so my tastes in Kuu music are apparently backwards from most of her fans'. secret and Black Cherry are my favorites.
