worst than her Trick tour mullet

I love IN THE AIR but it's more of a mid-tempo

Lmfao, ok that one is pretty bad.

[Gustavopc]

Alone sounds good. It sounds like it would fit well in ETERNITY, I wonder if she pretended releasing it back then, but for some reason took it from the album...

Oh, what a surprise, Go to the top Her outfits for upbeat songs on Kouhaku have been flawless so far, so I'm expecting something MUCH better than that mess for the past TV lives

[happiholic★]

That Trick Tour hair... omg. Never again Kuu. NEVER AGAIN.

Yay for Go To The Top! And Go For It from Kana. Kana and Kuu are gonna have the crowd pumped!

[AyuHamasaki01]

Alone sounds beautiful!

[kaled kalil]

Alone is totally a left over from ETERNITY, like she did with Brave on TRICK era...
It sounds okay imo, nothing really special.

OMFG. It completely owns Koishikute

Awww, this is lovely! But I have this horrible fear it's going to just blend together into one big ballad-mess like most of her stuff does. Which is so weird because I think they're GORGEOUS, but they don't stick out. ;w; Clearly the one remedy for this is to listen to more Kuu.

[ALfromHELLSING]

I adore Go to the top, awesome that she's gonna perform it. Kumi can never go wrong with anime/games theme songs: real Emotion, Crazy 4 U, No Regret, Hey Baby!

Alone sounds gorgeous. As for Ai no Uta I never cared much about it, especially caus eit came out after Yume no Uta. When I read that she announced another Uta I was expecting something same strong... but it was something different.

[taskinillusion]

Her magazine photoshoots are stunning!

That 360 photo she took at the concert is AMAZING!!!! That's such an awesome idea!

[Bad Wolf]

I've given 恋しくて a few listens and you know... it's so lovely! It's starting to stand out to me, too. I think it's because it reminds me of someone I like ;_; What confuses me, though is... why she has the same title for two different songs. O_o IIRC 恋しくて = darling? And the b-side of "Go to the top" WAS "darling." It's like alan having a song called ひとつ on her first album, and then a song called "one" on the second -- it's the same damn word XD

eta: okay i also see it translated as "i miss you" which makes no ******* sense but okay lol

[happiholic★]

^She does have "Hana" and "Flower". Unless by "Hana" she meant the other Japanese translation, nose

[Delicious n Bold]

Apparently Koishikute means "I miss you" or "homesick" or something that means "longing as in missing"

[maze]

yay for Go to the top @ Kouhaku. also can't wait for her to slay FNS Kayousai. I wonder if she's doing Music Station Super Live this year, last year she was ahmazing performing Ai wo tomenaide + Cutie Honey (damn that hair <33)

kuu's Alone sounds like it's gonna be better than the original, which always happen with whatever she covers tbh

whoever changed the thread title, thank you ^^

Where did you see the 360 photo? I really wanted to see it, but I guess I missed it somewhere..

[Gustavopc]

I love this Hana x flower titles lol I wouldnt be surprised if someday she comes up with a song called "Love song"

She looks amazing here Love the pic

[Bad Wolf]

lol oh man, and she's got more of them!

feel x feel me
one x one night romance
shake it x shake it up
stay x stay with me
sweet kiss x sweet love...
trust you x trust your love
your love x your only one x your song x your sunshine (jfc)

and let's not get into all those "ai no..." songs. this just reminds me how i still have to familiarise myself with her discography. i know ayu's to the point of memorising lyrics, but i'm not as proficient in kuu's yet. i consider this an oversight that must be corrected.

and 恋しくて is still my jam. i've fallen head over heels in love with it.

[Gustavopc]

^ "one" is a big deal for Kuu, there was "Your only one", "one", "One night romance" and "To be one" ALL of them in the "grow into one" album

There's also:
Get Out The Way X GO WAY!!
Rain x Saigo no ame
TABOO x TATTOO [Yeah, it is a cover, but still funny]
Black Cherry x Black Candy

And probably others

[Bad Wolf]

LOL HOW DID I MISS THAT? derp.

watch, for her next cover album she'll do alan's "one" and add another "one" song to her list :3 (and tbh i think kuu would do a great job with alan's "one." her voice is so warm and suited for those kinds of mid-temp ballads).
