[NintendoHTF1242]

Wow AK-69!? So random, but it might be a crunk R&B track, sweet.

Was about to post here asking for a list of the original artists for the songs that she covered, but I found one:

01 Ti Amo (original: EXILE)
02 LA・LA・LA LOVE SONG (original: 久保田利伸)
03 瞳をとじて (original: 平井堅)
04 奏(かなで) (original: スキマスイッチ)
05 One more time, One more chance (original: 山崎まさよし)
06 ロビンソン (original: 草野マサムネ)
07 Suddenly -ラブ・ストーリーは突然に- (original: 小田和正)
08 もう恋なんてしない (original: 槇原敬之)
09 桜坂 (original: 福山雅治)
10 ここにしか咲かない花 (original: コブクロ)
11 今のキミを忘れない (original: ナオト・インティライミ)
12 いとしのエリー (original: サザンオールスターズ)
13 TRUE LOVE (original: 藤井フミヤ)

Since I don't know any of the originals, I'm just gonna pass on this release. No interest. Never listened to Kumi's cover album either. meh.

missing out Eternity Love and Songs is a masterpiece

I wish this COVER album come out in the Winter tbh
but I do love it

also yes I LOVE AK-69

I'm absolutely loving Covers, it made me realize how much i really love Beni.
It's like an 80-90's Whitney Houston/Mariah Carey album, that's the vibe it gives me at least.

Close Your Eyes on repeat.. <'3

love that cover you've made , it's beautiful !

I really like BENI's English rendition of Ken Hirai's most famous hit to date Hitomi wo Tojite . To me , it's pointless to listen to COVERS if you don't know how the originals sound like but on the other hand , if you're open to the idea , why not ?

The only drawback for COVERS is that I wish BENI would have covered another more prominent song of Kobukuro (such as Sakura if not Tsubomi) but fair enough on why she chose Koko ni Shika Sakanai Hana since Koko ni Shika Sakanai Hana is credited as the duo's breakthrough hit

[Utena]

^ what's that cover you're using? it looks cool

[Benikari47]

Thanks, it was a quick cover i made cause i wasn't completely sold on the official
If you want it i can send it in PM?

[Utena]

^ yeah I would love that! I love the "retro vibe" you gave

[Benikari47]

Sent

[emi♡]

FINALLY getting around to watching Jewel Concert Tour....

I'm sooooo in love with her voice omfg I can't shut up about it.


and **** my life can she be anymore gorgeous?

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

I wish she'd collab with another female though. Crystal Kay, JAMOSA, maybe BoA

[setsuka]

she has with Jamosa on Lovebox, I am dying for a Crystal Kay duet, they are always together I wanna hear their voices together so badly

dnw BoA, I hate her voice with a passion, her and Double would make a cool collab too
