[Koda Kumi] The 170th Thread - New Summer Single「HOTEL」2014.08.06 On Sale!

[orangeakira]

She should film a whole "single" video from beginning to end with all 3 songs and interludes. I mean on the single they all form together to tell a story. She could easily do it in video form. She's checking in apparently she finds a secret room, and she checks out. They even have audio commentary telling you what's going on.

Hotel is okay. I love the chorus, but that's about it.
Money in the bag is a shorter and easier to listen version of Bling x3.
Turn Over is beautiful. I haven't loved a ballad this much since always.

Also I'd like to add "Interlude ~Secret Room~" to the never ending list of interludes that should be turned into full songs.

The Single is available for download on iTunes (SG), only HOTEL for now thou. It's weird that they have this single but not Bon Voyage album

[happiholic★]

Until we get a rip I uploaded all Hotel tracks found in this thread (thanks guys!) on SoundCloud. For those music listeners like me, who don't want to upload non-CD-rips onto their iPods, but still wanna listen to the tracks since they are out.

Hotel is still my most favorite track of all following by Turn Around and MIMB.

Turn Around is so beautiful that i regret it no PV, storyline will be pecfect.
Mimb, i love verses not chorus that too repeative. Moreover, i don't like interlude with conversations.

I hope she will perform Turn Around at once because of no For You and Faraway 's live on main concert until now.

Thanks for uploading, i will order definitely

Thank you so much! As a person who is too lazy to download anything nowadays, this is so convenient. Is that you in the soundcloud profile pic? You're so pretty!

LOVE Turn Around. It's gorgeous.

[Minttulatte]

For some reason I got no mood to listen Kuu's new single right now. I think I will have to wait for the mood to appear. I just don't get where my mood has disappeared to. Usually summer is the time of the year when I listen to Kuu most of the time. o.O

[Lee^ChaN]

Psst.. according to Koda Gumi, for her 15th anniversary project, there is an audition opening for dancers (who can open their schedule for November - December)
So we can expect something big on December.. nyahahahahaha...

[kaled kalil]

FANTASIA all over again. I can't wait!

[Possessionless]

The three songs that will be in the Pachinko machine are called SO FEVER, NEVER GIVE UP and Memory of You, previews can be found in the link below

[kaled kalil]

The last two videos are amazing! Koishikute and the other one looks beatiful.
And we can see she finally learn how to use chroma key, all of them looks pretty damn good.

[abestfah]

Memory of you seems to be very beautiful with Plotted PV^^

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

Kimi omoi sounds so effing good. Give it to me now kumi!

[happiholic★]

While the pachinko machine looks like fun... I just want MIMB PV...
