So wait. I had no idea that was Crystal Kay during the end Credits of "Fullmetal Alchemist" in "Motherland". Wow. That's big.

Did that ever translate over into sales. Should have helped her bunches.

^ I believe it was one of her more successful singles. Or at least, one of her more... listened to songs?

I think it was used as the lead in for her CK5 best album as well.

It's her 5th best selling single? haha

Anyway, I watched the What We Do video and the video totally changed what I thought the meaning of the song was lol. I thought it was about her cheating on her boyfriend who doesn't appreciate her, and what have you. I suppose it still has that meaning. They just made the video more of a girl power kinda thing haha.

Yeah especially back in 2007 she was pretty relevant, her album reached #1.

VIVID Tour starts soon. Wish I could attend!!

Saw her latest album as a recommended release on JPOPSUKI and downloaded. Really great stuff! Very "American" styled but I don't mind it with this release. My favorite is "Take It Outside" - great production!

Sales are so depressing though! Seems they really tried with this release, being the first on a new label. But... something didn't work for whatever reason. Just angers me that crap like Namie's latest sells so much and then this gem is over-looked. Of course there are some snoozers and it's a different style but the good stuff on here is really great.

Pieces_of_SEVEN · #**405** 29th September 2012, 02:08 AM

^I was seriously mortified by the sales! My favorites are What We Do, Come Back To Me, FOREVER, Delicious Friday, and Memory Box.

NintendoHTF1242 · #**406** 29th September 2012, 07:12 AM

She deserved the best. Album is amazing. I LOVE Forever, Take It Outside, Come Back To Me (this would do so good in America), Superman, and Memory Box.

tokyoxjapanxfan · #**407** 30th September 2012, 01:51 AM

Unfortunately for her, the American sound isn't whats selling right now.

It's the idol sound and look.

Had this been released earlier in her career it would have probably gotten much more attention. But everyone is more concentrated on idol stuff.

I mean... Remember when m-flo was actually popular? Ahh, I'm -so- glad that I could experience the early 2000's Jpop scene. Of course idol groups were still popular, but there was more of a balance. Now it's completely skewed.

tokyoxjapanxfan · #**408** 9th October 2012, 07:36 PM

Apparently, Crystal and Lionel Richie have done a duet together!

She sounds so good! <3

TeamAyu2004 · #**409** 9th October 2012, 07:50 PM

^ Coolness. I hope she come outs with more music soon!!

And... all I can say is... stupid idols. lol -.-

Kacku · #**410** 9th October 2012, 10:03 PM

The new song sounds very nice. I hope she will release some new solo material soon too!

I've been having many Crystal days recently. Her music has really struck me. It's weird, some time ago I really couldn't get into her at all - something about her voice and songs etc. rubbed me the wrong way. But VIVID really changed that. That album really has the power to convert people into fans. I've been really falling for her music since then and I'm happy that's happened. So much to love. Currently discovering Call me Miss...'s gems.

(Sorry about the random fan story, had to get that off my mind.)

TeamAyu2004 · #**412** 9th October 2012, 11:04 PM

Oh, also, its not a new song...
Didn't Richie just come out with a duet album... or is coming out with one?
Mabe this is one of the songs on it?

setsuka · #**413** 9th November 2012, 04:26 AM

WOW, the full thing is amazing <3

her sales may been crap this year but musically, this is one of her best imo

ugh, just nothing but love for this song <3333

Delicious n Bold · #**414** 9th November 2012, 05:36 AM

I don't get why CK doesn't give up on Japan and come to North America and try to break in over here....
Japan obviously doesn't care that much for her anymore. Time for a fresh start and such. I'd be here for her.

Edit: oh yeah, i forgot to compliment her voice. Still love it, it's great!

Pieces_of_SEVEN · #**415** 9th November 2012, 05:37 AM

WOW! I love this song...where can I download it?!

Here's a PV rip...but I want the real thing! Can't find it on US iTunes or Amazon.

setsuka · #**416** 13th November 2012, 03:16 AM

thanks for the rip, I think it is on the Japanese version of his duet album or something

anyway preview of her new track with Daichi Dance , rather his track

or maybe the full track but I think it will be longer

love Daichi's work so much <3

tokyoxjapanxfan · #**417** 13th November 2012, 07:18 AM

God I love Daichi Dance's work. Thank you for posting that.

TeamAyu2004 · #**418** 13th November 2012, 03:27 PM

Oh coolness! I love his work too! So she is going to be on his new album!!!

Kacku · #**419** 13th November 2012, 08:53 PM

I can't wait for the full version of FANTASTIC JOURNEY. I love everything about the song so far.

Sidenote, wasn't Crystal's VIVID live recording broadcasted a few days ago? I wonder if anyone's managed to record it...

Pieces_of_SEVEN · #**420** 16th November 2012, 05:44 AM

I tweeted CKay asking where I could purchase Endless Love but didn't get a response. *****. LOL she responds to my boyfriend but not me!
