She hasn't done "****ty" image for a while now. And I don't want her to be a boring "cool" sex-symbol like Namie. I want her to continue finding things to stick up her who-ha and pressing her tits together on stage.

Well, one thing we can definitely say is that Kumi isn't boring (except some or her ballads sometimes, but anyway lol), so I think if she stay with her sexy image, she's gonna do a good job as always.
I don't expect to her do something like Love Me Back again (I think it's one of her most sexy PVs for a while), but I'm excited to see how she's gonna do the sexy style for now on.
It's like 2008 all over again, TABOO wasn't expected at all, it's a risk when you have a whole scandal about a taboo, and you release a song with a name and style like that, and it was also pretty sexy.

I don't really like Namie's cool-sexy style, is pretty boring sometimes.

Guys she's already changed to mature and classy sexy. She rarely does trashy nowadays, but she will always be sexy.

Someone needs to put that she' s still going to be sexy in the opening post lol.

Yeah, I'd say Love Me Back was on parr with Juicy except maybe Juicy had some more daring choreography. KO-SO-KO-SO is probably her most scandalous and sexy PV to date, and V.I.P was on parr to juicy in my opinion and is one of her most btchy PVS, so in terms of her more daring 'out there' sexy image I think she has outdone herself this year.

She's proven that she can do both overtly sexual (but in a tasteful way, despite what some people say) and mature sexy, she has so many sides of sexy I don't know which one to love more, so they all get a gold star from me.

I think TRICK because she looked pretty gross that whole era... and because it was post-scandal so she kept it tame.

I want all of these, too. But, I do agree that she has done different sides of sexy. She's done cool-sexy, ****ty-sexy, mature-sexy and even like a self-confident/girl power-sexy. I love them all. I'm not gonna like, I kinda love her trashy-sexy most. But, that's because I know that Kuu is talented, hard-working, self-producing, genuine, writes-own-lyrics, etc. so if she's doing those things its not because she has no other tricks or no talent, but because she wants to.

@Bad Wolf: Thanks for letting me know + the upload. I'm going to download it now.

EDIT: I like the version that I had of WWO better than this one... the quality is better on this one, and that's about it.

Just stopping in to say that I'm disappointed with Beach Mix!

I only like BBB, POP DIVA, Taboo, and Heat! I love remixes, I was hoping I would enjoy more of the album! hmph

Beach Mix debuts at #4 with 25,643 copies sold first week. She already outsold the overall total sales of Driving Hit's 3 & 4 and also outsold what Driving Hit's 2 sold in it's first week. I think it did much better than we expected.

^That's good, it sold just a bit less than her previous singles have been for the first week. I was expecting it to hit 20k in the long run lol

I think her little break music-wise was good for her as she wasn't forced down the japanese public's throats for a short period. Maybe her next single will do really well

I don't think it was that much longer than normal... was it? I don't even feel like she took a proper pregnancy leave, lol.

Yes I agree. She still hasn't really comeback as far as the general public is concerned as she has yet to perform once this year or make an appearance. Beach Mix was also just bought by her die-hard fans so most people won't hear it. I'm excited to see how she does when she returns as it'll have been about 9-10 months which is a decent amount in J-Pop time.
