Thank you!! That's what I meant.

Alright, but I don't understand why that should be a problem.

@maze: you're right. I was thinking that, too. Kuu'S most recent ballads are everything I hate about ballads, actually. Generic goat crap.

Same, to be honest. I can't stand her recent ballads at all. They all sound the same to me. It sucks because I totally love ballads, but I seriously can't deal with listening to Kuu's anymore haha

Just wanna say that the "W FACE" tour PV is AMAZING! The entire concept is soo kuu...with being underwater, butterflies, etc... I'm getting so nostalgic! and boy was she GORGEOUS in both looks!

*goes back to listening to OUTSIDE*

a-nation 2017 dates have released & this year it will take place on 26th & 27th Aug at Tokyo's Ajinomoto Stadium

Will this be the 1st time Kuu might not be performing on a-nation ?

For both listed dates , KODA KUMI LIVE TOUR 2017 ~ W FACE ~ will be happening so I don't think she will perform

[KuuXAyu-fan]

She also didn't perform in 2012 and 2014.

[ahtka-chan]

I don't know if any of you saw, but there's someone selling two tickets to W FACE Tour in the buying and selling forum part.

Are there MQ/HQ scans of the DH7 booklet somewhere? There is a pic I wanna use as my lockscreen

Actually she did in 2014...
She did'nt in 2012 because she gave birth To her son....

[jiarongisme]

^ Yep. She performed at a-nation Taiwan in 2014.

Not very sure if anyone on here would buy tickets to this weekend's concerts cos they will take place in Sapporo

Also a real pity that there's a high chance that Kuu might not perform in this year's a-nation

My sister plans to go back Japan on that week & it would have been the 2nd time she see Kuu perform assume if the dates do not clash with each other

I know she performed in Taiwan in 2014 but I really don't consider it the same.
It's kind of sad but oh well. I wanted Kuu to release a new single this year but I have a feeling we won't get any more new music till next year near the fanclub tour.

agree, back to those days ballad like Yume no Uta really a masterpiece, her recent ballad is still okay but not memorable.
but her ballad live are so "memorable", esp when she make those wanna-cry-face while hit her chest.
anyone having problem to sleep at night? please try 8min "Moon Crying" live ver from AL "UNIVERSE" or "darling" acoustic ver from Japonesque tour, zzzzz...

I completely agree with you there. Yume no Uta is an amazing song, very emotional and beautiful. And the arrangement isn't the most unique thing ever but it's not the same piano/strings you hear in every other Kuu ballad nowadays lol

[a❤martian]

I like her R&B ballads compared to her piano ballads. They have way more character. But, I think her piano ones are more popular, so she just makes them as generic as possible to please the cell-phone toting, hormonal masses.

[NintendoHTF1242]

I don't have anything to contribute to the current discussion but I got Spotify premium and didn't realize almost all of Kuu's discography is on it. Got the chance to play both albums. Absolute snoozefests.

[ALfromHELLSING]

I'm still a little disappointed that W FACE isn't performed, I thought they are playing the MV in the background during her performance of the song but they aren't... Either way I LOVE W FACE MV, even tho in some parts it looks like she's singing a different song. lol

I'm really confused about 60th single now, is Ultraviolet going to be a re-cut single? Did they have a change in plans and she'll have a brand new single this summer or it's going to be multiple sides single including Ultraviolet. It's so hard to tell at this point... I wonder if 60th single is going to be her last single. Ayu stopped with her singles at such an odd number and it doesn't seem like she's going to release anymore singles in the future. I wonder what Kumi is planning.
