I like how they censored the swearing bits in original PV but didn't in the BEST ~BOUNCE & LOVERS~ version

[Bigtop]

So what's the difference between the two versions of the "Hot Stuff" MV above?

[KarenPang]

^ Shouldn't you watch the 2 different videos of the Hot Stuff PV and then compare them against each other , difference wise ?

It's not hard doing that isn't it ?

===

I'm surprised Rhythm Zone uploaded both versions of the Hot Stuff PV last night

Either way , I still love Hot Stuff after all these years

One's the original version from secret, the other is just a dance cut from BEST ~BOUNCES & LOVERS~.

Oh yeah, I forgot, one of the versions was that dance version.

Now I'm waiting for the dance version of "Crazy 4 U"...

Kuu just uploaded a how to dance video for BE MY BABY on her FCs.
So that everyone who wants can learn something for her lives with her while at home and use it as exercise.
(and honestly that part of her home you can see in the video looks damn amazing, we haven't seen it before! )

They listed the video on youtube as well, but will only official release it 7 pm JST.
For now you can only access it through the direct link on her FCs.



Btw. lives - Kuu said in the April video on her FC that they're currently working on the stage (design) for her arena tour and when they're finished they will decide on the setlist.
She says they look for all the comments and reactions on her music videos uploaded on youtube, Instagram and social media to get a feeling what people wanna see.
So guys, comment if you wanna have a say!
Altogether she wants everybody being able to enjoy the shows this time, including the ones being fans of her earlier stuff.

[minkAYuko]

[Corvina]

They uploaded the BE MY BABY PV in full now as well to accompany the lesson.

Kuu actually asks in her Insta post she just made about it what song she should do next - go and tell her!

Aw that's really nice! She's been very active with reading fans' instagram posts and comments recently. I'll have to make sure to comment!
I'm hoping to go for the 5th of December Tokyo date when the ticket lottery opens, fingers crossed.

I'm so happy they are uploading her lives in HD on Youtube. I never saw the first Secret live before because I could never get hold of it, so it was nice to see it finally! I have First Things on DVD but it's awesome to be able to have it in HD as well! It's also still one of my favourite concerts from her, it's super well done and fun to watch. I haven't seen the Taiwan live for many years as well, so I'm looking forward to seeing it. It's super cute that she was in the comments with fans.

[Corvina]

Kuu had a question round today on Insta, especially to ask which how-to-video she should do next.
Tho other stuff was ok as well.

A fan asked if we're getting an original album for her 20th anniversary and Kuu answered she's steadily recording at home and we should stay tuned.



Someone also asked about a new photobook and Kuu said that there's no offer for that right now.

For songs for the next video fans suggested songs like Dreaming Now!, HOTEL, POP DIVA, Love Me Back, LIT, HUSH, PARTY...
With Love Me Back she said it might be the next one.
She does try to go for easier dance routines and POP DIVA e.g. might be bothersome.
She did decide for the next one already.
And shooting stuff like that also makes it more interesting for her son constantly staying at home - he also tried BE MY BABY and Kuu shared it.

I’m watching the UNIVERSE tour for the first time and am rather underwhelmed.

Then again...I was lucky enough to go to Dream Music Park so nothing will top seeing these performances in that setting. It’s such a shame it never got a stand-alone DVD/blu-ray release

I was wondering why TRlCK tour was not included...

FOR REAL !!!!!!

I was waiting for THIS ONE !!!!

And Im kinda mad by the way, I knew I was right. Please listen to Unmei live @ Black Cherry Tour 2007 then Unmei @ Re-live 2019... Unmei is literally my favorite ballad of her and I just cannot listen to the Re-live audio because she actually destroys her own song with the vocals... BC Tour 2007 tho, she was ON POINT. What Im hearing in Unmei @ Relive is exactly what I hate and what she's been doing in all of songs now especially in live performances... I don't know if she needs to see her vocal coach again or whatever but sis gotta get it right. They could at least have edited the shit out of it.

You could also do it with Yume no Uta (the same 2 tours)... her voice shakes so much now and that is really not pleasant to hear. Her scream at the end of the bridge is just... nevermind

[KarenPang]

This was answered in the previous page of the thread on why there's a possible reason Rhythm Zone chose not to air the TRICK tour for a limited amount of time on YouTube

[Negi92]

But it doesnt make any sense... they’ve just released a DVD for Black Cherry so why would they upload the most similar live that BC has aka Taiwan Live?

I would love them to upload Dirty Ballroom to get it in HD lol
