[Koda Kumi] The 155th Thread – New Single 「恋しくて」 (12.26)

[inspire_rmx]

i love the Koishikute performance so much. Flawless vocals.
and oh my Koishikute sounds great but Alone is sooooo amazing from the preview. can't wait!

[Ayu_Love]

Oh wow, the Alone preview is AWESOME. I can't wait to hear the full! I won't say for definite til I hear the full, but I kinda wish that was the A-side and she was performing that now, it has so much energy and winter spirit to it. <3

I was surprised that I like Koishikute! There's part of the melody to that stays with me personally, even though it's not my favourite kuu ballad, I do really like it and look forward to hearing it performed.

I have to say that my favourite kuu ballads are her older pop/R'N'B ones, with also some recent ones My most loved Kuu ballads (some more than others) are:

1000 no Kotoba (first kuu ballad I ever loved, stil do)
Come Back
Pearl Moon
Taisetsu na Kimi E
Hands
Kiseki
Tsuki to Taiyou
Candle light
Yume No Uta
0-ji Mae no Tsunderella
Faraway (so underrated to me, I love it)
Always
Aisho
IN THE AIR
Moon Crying
Himitsu
Slow (Would probably like it more if there was less autotune on the verses and the rap makes it less epic for me. Love the chorus, though.)
No Way
Say Her Name

Others I like are You're so beautiful, Okay, You Are Not Alone, Darling and Walk, but not as much as those. Taking another listen to Brave as well, while It's not my fav, I do like it too.

[inthezone]

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

[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.

[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!

Thanks~

[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

omg that, too! i don't get it XD

[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 ^^
