Love the covers, and I'm glad it's a single, too bad there's no "new" coupling song.
It's a bit odd to release the full song so long in advance digitally.. isn't it going to bust the sales?

Physical sales are so low for her singles anyway, so it probably won't make much of a difference, I guess.
I love her minimal make up on the covers!

[mi|kshake]

I didn't recognise her when she posted the cover on Instagram! Cover is looking good but not keen on the font.

Love that she's re-recorded Glamorous Sky!

[Refix]

It's look like a cheap cosplay to me... meh.
Wonder how the new version sounds.

This looks like the CD back cover of KISS OF DEATH ?

This's sad , Mika's marriage to Shimizu Kunihiro was dissolved yesterday :x

Reason on the divorce is due to distance . Mika is based in Tokyo while Shimizu plays for Osaka's Panasonic Panthers . The now ex couple's marriage lasted for 4 years

Nakashima Mika announces divorce

Nakashima Mika has announced her divorce from volleyball player Shimizu Kunihiro.

After continuous discussions with one another, they decided that it would be best for their future if they went their separate ways. In a joint statement, they said, "Due to our lifestyles in Tokyo and Osaka, it was difficult to make time as family. But the time we spent together is irreplaceable. We are grateful." Nakashima and Shimizu tied the knot in December of 2014 after three years of dating.

For some reason, Kiss of Death sounds like for her divorce. A death kiss of her relationship.
