[Koda Kumi] The 187th Thread - NEW ALBUM COMING SOON

[kaled kalil]

Btw, are we counting the albums as 13th "double disc" album or 13th and 14th albums?
I see some places counting inside as her 13th album and outside as the 14th.

On another topic, I feel like the DVD content will be different between inside and outside, but not for the actual PVs, but for the making of of them.

[abestfah]

I'm very sad that until now I have no favorite on any Inside previews, probably it's very typical Kuu that I don't quite like. Hopefully, Outside can make me surprised when full songs come out.

[ALfromHELLSING]

C'mon guys, just skip the comments from all those same individuals who always only complain. They are just like a broken record anyway. Nothing new, nothing interesting.

Thanks, Kaled. I forgot that Kimi Omoi is technically a tie-in for FEVER LEGEND LIVE. Speaking of which, I now have the complete collection of all FEVER releases. Actually now that she's releasing another FEVER album my collection is incomplete again...

Spoiler:

I was wondering about that too. Koda Gumi says 2 albums .

Kuu and SHUN + JuNGLE they need to come back with her!


From LINE

[Luck16]

OMG JuNGLE <3
Shun I can live without meh

[Zahara]

I love that color on her!

She really can rock all the colors.

[melissalove]

everyone is always fighting, gosh people learn to respect other people's opinions. Stop attacking people for thinking different.

Anyway, love the hair, very edgy.

Did someone say that Cupcake lyrics are dirty? is there a translation for this song that I've missed.

So far outside is still selling better on amazon.jp and mu-mo as it's higher on their rankings than inside. But the FC bundles aren't counted on that and I assume most fans buy from her FC.
We will see the result in about 3 weeks.

And yes, Cupcake's lyrics are from the snippets we got with the preview.

Put your gloves on
The offer
So sweet
I'm already addicted to your taste
Only me especially

And well, the chorus at The Artist was already clear enough, wasn't it? Be my cupcake?

@kaled
I personally count both together as her 13th album. Fits to the concept. Her official site doesn't count it at all for now, just calling it new album.

Bring It On instrumental preview from W FACE ~inside~ https://twitter.com/KODAKUMINET/stat...79508895657984

Insane instrumental preview W FACE ~outside~ https://twitter.com/KODAKUMINET/stat...80640191799296

[Gubsi]

insane sounds wicked, probably my fave preview after W FACE...
you clearly can hear she got inspiration from Lemonade, which is what i wished for her 13th album.

yeah i counting both albums as 13th album as well... it's basically a double disc album, even it's separated...
in my W FACE folder it's just separated as Disc 01 〜inside〜 and Disc 02 〜outside〜...

[KarenPang]

I count W FACE ~inside~ & W FACE ~outside~ as Kuu's 13th joint album release as well since her official site didn't state any further details about it , unlike Shhh ! where they count it as her 59th single release

[kaled kalil]

I see, I guess we're gonna have to wait till next album and see if it's her 14th or 15th haha.

Insane is a trap based song. She's really going for that aggressive sound as was stated.

[Corvina]

Yeah, insane seems to be Trap, just like Cupcake is.
No matter, if you like the previews or not, they are in one consistent sound direction.

[Gustavopc]

YAASS OUTSIDE COME THROUGH

[a❤martian]

I'm so pumped for Bring It On. It's really unique for her. And it sounds amazing. Insane sounds good, too! I think I'm gonna love this album(s)!

I need more ero-kakkoi songs from The Kuueen, there can never be too many. I still can't get enough of SO FEVER - afureru juicy. She SO needs to perform it during her 2017 live tour. Oh and I love that she's doing all those trap songs, I need studio version of Cupcake ASAP.

I think Stand by you is my fav preview from the Inside. It gives me stay with me & Kimi Omoi & Brave vibes. I'm a huger sucker for Kumi's ballads.

[KarenPang]

Promise you instrumental preview from W FACE ~inside~ https://twitter.com/KODAKUMINET/stat...40580492193792

Heartless instrumental preview W FACE ~outside~ https://twitter.com/KODAKUMINET/stat...41964545433600

I guess Heartless is the 'soulful R&B ballad sung only with a piano'

[Darkifrit]

These previews make me understand it is hard to have an opinion on 15 sec instrumental previews.
I adored Promise you since first TVCM vision but if it was the first time I would have heard it with this preview, I certainly would not have loved it that much.

I can't wait to have the list of songs with PV! Only 4 weeks left until the release!

[kaled kalil]

Yeah, Promise you's preview is quite underwhelming, and knowing that the song is good kinda gives me hope for the other ballads that aren't that impressive, like Heartless.

So far there are 6 ballads, right? Yorokobi no Kakera, Sukideshite, Kimi Omoi, On my way, Promise you and Heartless.

I'm guessing BRIDGET SONG is a IN THE AIR type of song, and My Fun something like Gimme U.

I'd call Promise you a midtempo popsong. And Suki deshite and Yorokobi no Kakera could be as well in full.
Kimi Omoi, On my way, Heartless and Stand by you are ballads for sure though. That's still a nice mix with 20 full songs.

Kuu shared today, that the preview campaign ends tomorrow and with the total numbers of shares on the 13th 1 pm Japanese time, we will get another song version on the 14th!
