Lovey Dovey's are Cry Crying in T-ara's THIRD THREAD

[ayurocks20]

Considering I don't have any of their Japanese singles or Korean albums... This is pretty cool to me. It comes with a concert ^_^ What more could I want?

EDIT: Also, we know how much awfulness they've been through, they're probably way too worked over and stressed to record new songs, in between their works in Korea and Japan as well as their upcoming Japan Tour and the training of 2 new members.

[adantatu2]

just 2 new songs, oh well, i hope we can get now unreleased songs in the future (What other korean song they can sing in japanese ? )

[AyusakiFan]

Although I was hoping that their new album would have more than 2 new songs, I can't say that I'm surprised that it consists mostly of remakes. At first I was a little disappointed, but considering their busy schedules and everything that they've been through recently, I'm just grateful that they've had the time to even record an album, lol. Plus they're remaking some of my favorite songs so I'm excited about that and super curious about the new songs. I was hoping that one of the DVDs would contain all of the Japanese MVs they've released leading up to this album but with the release of their music video collection, I'm hoping it's an indication that they'll do something similiar with this set of videos in the future. I'm definitely going to get the diamond edition since it has special jewelry box packaging, a 100 page photobook, and full concert footage. I wouldn't mind the sapphire edition for the history footage but since I'm going to stick to buying one edition, I'm getting the diamond version.

I'm not too worried about the Japanese album only having 2 new songs either. To be honest I'm not very interested in their Japanese activities anyway, I'd rather they put the effort into their Korean releases. I haven't purchased any of their Japanese singles but I might buy the album if the packaging is nice. I want the extras that come with the diamond edition.

Roly Poly sold another 1,087 copies this week so the total is now 58,619. So close to 60k! I hope they make it.


What I really want is this:


Too bad they aren't putting it on sale and only 300 copies were printed I guess I'll have to settle for Sparkle

A first press external bonus of a photo will be included with all versions of "Jewelry Box."

I would really like to have this book as well and am sad that it won't be available for sale. I read that 20 of the books are going to given away in a contest to those who can come up with the best name for the new group but what about the other 280 copies? If they aren't going to be sold, what are they going to do with them? Speaking of Sparkle, I can't wait until my copy arrives in the mail!

[mobius]

Crap, YesAsia is selling the Diamond version for $93.00?

I'm not really too big on their Japanese remake songs but I'm interested in hearing the Japanese version of I'm really hurt and TTL

That not-for-sale photobook looks really good.

In somewhat T-ara related news...

the new CCM girl group has a name.....Gang Kids...

I normally purchase albums from YA because they tend to be cheaper for me on total price including shipping and handling (and I get cashback for my purchases) but I ended up placing my order at CDJapan for this album because YA has it listed for way too much, even with the free shipping. You can get it cheaper at HMV with EMS shipping (I would have bought it at HMV but I wanted to pay for this album with paypal and not worry about being charged for it at a later date). BTW, it appears that the number for the first press edition of the album is dwindling down on CDJ so for those of you who want to place an order there, I would suggest you do so soon so you don't miss out on getting it with the first press bonus.

According to T-ara's Official Japanese website, a teaser clip of "Lovey-Dovey (Japanese Version) will be aired tommorrow (24th) on the TV show "ZIP!".

Also, T-ara's official Japanese website has posted a teaser of their Lovey-Dovey ＆Cry Cry Music Video Making Teaser for the Cry Cry & Lovey-Dovey Music Video Collection DVD & Blu-ray. I'm unsure if LOENENT posted these clips on their youtube channel but I'm posting it just in case they haven't (too lazy to check, lol):

DUMB QUESTION ALERT: Does anyone know what the set-list for the X'mas live concert was? I'm not sure if I want to by that version or the T-ARA History version... I assume by History, they mean all their PV's... right?

I did a short search for the setlist and could only find information regarding three songs they performed, which are the title tracks of their Japanese singles (Bo Peep Bo Peep, yayaya, and Roly-Poly). The DVD is 90 minutes long so obviously the tracklist is longer than that so I'm hoping that it will be revealed in full as we get closer to the release date. As far as the T-ara History DVD that comes with the Sapphire Edition, I'm doubtful that it contains their music videos. It would typically be stated if it were music videos in the DVD tracklist. Korean artists under EMI usually leave their MVs exclusive to their singles as well. The disc is supposed to be an hour long and they currently do not have that many Japanese videos out to fit the timeframe. I'm assuming that it's a documentary featuring footage of their time in Japan since their Japanese debut to now.

I want to see the album art and packaging for the diamond edition before I decide to spend that much money on it. I have decided I want to buy the album though, I just don't know which version I want yet!

BTW, CCM opened the poll for the official fanclub name, the options were chosen from fan suggestions. If you want to vote you can join and level up in the fancafe using this tutorial, then go here to vote. The poll ends on April 29th.

The meaning behind Tarathenas is obvious, T-ara + athenas. They came up with Tiramisu from the Italian words Tirare(끌어올리다) + Mi(나를) + Su(위로) = "I'll Pull/Hold You Up." Apollon comes from the Greek god (the god of music) with the fans being the god protecting T-ara or sth. T-ara Castle is obvious too. Then there's Snow Drop and another one I don't get. Apollon is currently leading, but it just started a few hours ago.

I voted for Tiramisu because it's delicious

[Tom Punks]

Omg tiramisu plz

[AyusakiFan]

The teaser for the Lovey Dovey (Japanese Ver.) MV starts at :33:



As much as I hate to complain about the quality of the MV, I have to admit that it looks super cheap from this clip. I'm looking forward to hearing the song in full but I'm not as enthusiastic about the video.

[adantatu2]

Honestly their japanese PV's are really cheap, f.e. i saw they used a Canon camera to film the whole pv for Bo Peep Bo Peep. And they use scenes from their korean MV's

[4minute Girl]

I'm really uninterested in this release, lol. It even seems a bit unnecessary since the album is coming out 14 days after the single. I mean I get why they're doing it but I don't really care It would be so much better if their Japanese company had a better creative team for them because it all looks so amateur.

In other news, today is 1000 days since T-ara debuted
And according to some untranslated articles I missed before, it is their second full length album they're preparing for their Korean comeback. Hopefully those plans don't change

[freedreamer]

gosh that MV looks really..sad..
at least the vocals seem clearer

[AyusakiFan]

The Lovey-Dovey (Japanese ver.) full MV is out.

[adantatu2]

^thanks

It would be so much better if their Japanese company had a better creative team for them because it all looks so amateur.

Yes And Lovey Dovey PV isn't an exception
At least the japanese version sounds good

In other news, today is 1000 days since T-ara debuted
And according to some untranslated articles I missed before, it is their second full length album they're preparing for their Korean comeback. Hopefully those plans don't change

With their horrible company, they could split the album in two, or release different dates like in the past.

I'm in Japan at the moment and bought their Lovey-Dovey&Cry Cry music video collection thing It's really good. Very expensive, but worth it. The making of both of the videos is decently long, there's english subtitles and it's really good quality. There's also a LOT of photos to look through. I'll post a photo of it soon

I'm so happy to hear that you are happy with the "Lovey-Dovey & Cry Cry Music Video Collection" DVD! I preordered it from HMV and should be getting it next week so I'm super excited! I also got Sparkle in the mail today and will be taking pictures of it as well to post here. If possible, could you use spoiler tags when you post the photo?
