[Koda Kumi] The 142th thread - 52nd Single「Love Me Back」and new album coming

[kaled kalil]

@Ayu_Love I don't think so, but someone will upload the whole award (as always).

And I'm happy with the setlist too because she sang the Ai no Uta 2009 style, and the Bling Bling Bling break is so hot. ♥

Kumi will sing Love Me Back at CDTV http://www.tbs.co.jp/cdtv/guest/#guest1

And she's going to sing LMB at Music Station this Friday, the first time!
Can't wait!

Kuu on the red carpet:

Poor Kuu, those hosts were just asking her in Korean and she didn't really know what to do, so she just answered anything in Japanese, haha.
Why didn't they give her a translator? I mean, they invited her! Badly organized, lol.


It seems "Koda Kumi" is now trending on Twitter - worldwide.
Don't know, cause I don't use it, just read it.

And I love some of those comments under her performance on youtube, like:

"I know nothing about jpop, so i am not going to pretend.
All i can is that this lady knows how to rock the stage.
Nuff Said."

"The acoustics (sound system) of Mnet seemed horrible as usual. People here in Korea say only a few artists including Ms. Koda survived dreadful acoustics with their vocal abilities.
I personally think this performance was the best of the night."

You don't know how happy I am about all that!
She deserves it.

I feel so proud of Kuu <3 She rocked that stage and also got that award, it's just incredible. I kinda feel she was nervous during VIP, but it was a great perfomance, her hair and her outfit were pretty gorgeous, just like the red dress.
These pics on the red carpet reminds me of the first things era, when she covered almost nothing with her "dresses", but this covers a bit more of skin than those hahahaha

[AyuHamasaki01]

Awesome performance at the MAMA.

I know I'm late but I love Love Me Back, awesome song!

[Kingdom]

Kuu owned the MaMa stage... so proud of her! And hottest artist indeed. I'm glad Korea loves her!

She is so perfect!

[Beauty4123]

Is there a photo archive of her red carpet dresses? I never thought about paying attention until now.

[krauterol]

to be honest, I was expecting a worst performance! I thought she could be nervous for beeing the only japanese artist there, but damn, she owned the stage!!!
I only think that the whole performance could had been better if she performed Universe and love me back than v.i.p and BBB (just because the both first are not as strident as the second ones..) but on the other hand, she did an excellent work with BBB with the dance and interacting with the audience!

congrats kuu!! now asia really knows how talented you are!
and congrats too for her "20 minutes" world trending topic on twitter hahaha!
of course, congrats also for that MAMA award, even I wish it was a music recognition and not only an "image award".. anyway, you did it, better that what I was expecting. you own the stage and didn't miss the opportunity of show em all how to rock the stage

[milky_way]

Lord, take me now cuz I'm dead

[mangoo_x3]

Honestly, I thought Kuu could've done better. The red dress was gorgeous but the black outfit was a HOT MESS. She still delivered, lots of energy.

I was disappointed in the hair and makeup stylist... sometimes they make her look SUPER OLD. I mean come on... -_____-

[freedreamer]

I wish she'll come back to Singapore again one day. TT.TT was this her first time here?

[maze]

I want her performance in HD!!! she indeed owned the stage

HOTTEST ASIAN ARTIST

since day 1 <3

[KuuXAyu-fan]

I wonder if we'll be getting an album announcement next month. After the MAMA awards I'm even more pumped for the new album.

EDIT: Kumi is confirmed for Kouhaku Utagassen 2011 as expected!

[waterballoon]

Kuu totally rocked the stage for MAMA!!! AHHH can't believe I WASN'T at Singapore when she's right at my hometown *curses*

[Bigtop]

I think this makes sense why she's NOT in the NTV Best Artist: she was in Singapore for MAMA!

[Gubsi]

so guys i think we get an album announcement sometime during the mini-live on dec 14th...

-she said during a concert the album will have 7-8 new songs...
-she finished them
-after that (1 or 2 weeks) she mentioned in the FC blog she recorded another song
-she has 6 PV's finished
(Boom Boom Boys, Cutie Pop Song, ??? something they've done ery fast, feat. Omarion, dance choreo & another PV BUT no info bout it)

so i think 6 A-Sides+7 Songs+1 Intro = 14 Songs as usual!
i think maybe 1 or 2 Bonus Tracks like live version/studio of the live version of "You are not alone"
So i believe this will be a normal 15 tracks album as always!!

i'm sure the mini-live will be the 2nd DVD for the CD+2DVD first press limited macaroni holy moly edition...
and i think this will be a good event to announce it and some hours after it we get an official announcement on her site!
maybe we get some info (release date/album title) from multi-lemonia a week before it...

expect the album to be released on feb 15th or feb 22nd...
hope for 15th release, cause she can do a special valentines day release concert the day before!!

Edit: and with so many vids maybe a limited single with the Dejavu Live DVD in january...

[Gustavopc]

I was thinking about it being released on the end of March cuz that's affection 10th anniversary, but the valentines day also sounds like a good ideia. About Dejavu Tour, I think it'll be like Kingdom+Black Cherry Tour, we'll get a trailer on the album and one month/one month and a half after we get the live.

[freedreamer]

6 NEW PVs?! omg...we're gonna get a Kingdom-esque release again?! with Black Cherry Quality material??? that will be to die for

[kaled kalil]

@3:38 Wow, this is a really good angle to see that. lol
And you can see she taking off the dress.

[Tom Punks]

I'm so proud to be a Kuu fan~
