Thanks!!! they were ok vids. Not my fave but they will be played in my house... and I really have no idea what she saying in touch down lol. I like both songs. So would like them more if the vids were different lol

^ JoJo just recorded the demo... I dont think there was a "Touch Down" song on her last releases...

[Gustavopc]

^ It'll be released on July 31st, and it'll have 3 songs and 2 PVs.

So yeah, there's just one song missing for us to have the whole single already.

[Gubsi]

sooo...

LaLaLaLaLa and Touch Down sounds like typical american music or what i connect with it in general...
rock and those rnb/club songs.
i wonder if this has something to do with "The Koda World!" and we'll get a little single project. and every single has a "world" sound...
1. USA (LaLa.../Touch Down)
2. Europe (Euro Dance/whatever)
3. Japan (Ballad/Cute Pop)

LaLaLaLaLa sounds nice. it's so much diffrent from her previous summer rock songs, BUT i think it will grow on me, even i'm not hyped about it at the moment.
Touch Down welll at first it was cool, BUT after some repeats i can say i love it! (the panther scene yasss!)
i love those type of grindy dirty music!

it won't be fave summer single at the moment, BUT i think i'll love this more than MOON.

[AyumiSEASONS]

I really really really LOVE both of them...and I LOVE her hair in Lalalalala

[Mirrorcle Monster]

Need DL links right now

[x-megumi-x]

I really like Lalalala, especially the chorus. The PV is nice as well, she looks so amazing *_*
Touch Down is hot but a bit too repetitive. And the PV is cheap as hell lol

[Gubsi]

so after some repeats i can say that i love both songs now!!

Touch Down Touch Down Take Me To The Ground!!
(the Need To fly/fry parts BUT )

[Minttulatte]

It always makes me lol when I see people saying Kuu's new music is too American. For me, Kuu has had that American vibe in her music since the release of That Ain't Cool, and that was in 2008. After that she has become more and more influenced by American music. Personally I like that about her. I've never liked J-Pop singers who are too Japanese. Kuu and Namie are people who could make music in the US and be popular as hell and I like that. I've said it a couple of times but I say it again. Westernized J-Pop is the best imo.

As for Lalalalala and TOUCH DOWN I love both songs so much I can't even express it with words. I don't really like rock music anymore as much as I used to but there's always something about Kuu rock that makes me crazy over her rock songs. I'm not sure what it is, but I don't mind. Kuu nails everything anyway. XD PVs were amazing too. I kinda saw some Black Cherry era vibes here too btw, and it made me love these songs more. XD I can't wait to hear the last song, which will probably be a ballad or some midtempo pop song like IN THE AIR. Kuu usually has either of those on her summer singles so I'm curious. Maybe I will end up being wrong and there will be another kick ass dance song but tbh I'd like to have a midtempo pop song too. Something like IN THE AIR. That song is so gorgeous♥

[freedreamer]

lalalala is awesome!!! it sounds very western too.
Touch Down is ok for me...

[ren'ai]

I cant believe how disappointed i am in touch down tbh. For what it is, its a good song, I was just unfortunately expecting a hot sexy dance song a la VIP, ECSTASY, JUICY, LOLLIPOP..need i go on? Like, where the hell is that ultimate sexy song HIRO supposedly composed for her last year??? Is she saving it for an album? Cuz Touch down would have fit as an album track way more than a single track imo...

Bah.

[TeamAyu2004]

i think lalala can grow on me, but touch down is... well...
thats the kind of music she needs to make if she wants to destroy what she has left of her career.

[Benikari47]

Decent single i guess, but i can't help feeling disappointed with Touch Down.
It's the type of Kuu song i love but it goes nowhere and she seems like she's holding back.
Lalalalala is pure love though, so happy and "pump your first in the air"-esque! <3 Reminds me of something Avril Lavigne would release on her first album. The chorus is just perfect!

As for the videos, they seem a little low budget. But i really like the one for lalalalala as it does the song great justice, Touch Down looks like CL's Baddest Female. Gurl, you ain't got her swagger.

[ayumisrael]

Missed this kuu <3

[Kouyou]

Here to fry
I was a little hesitant to watch the PVs judging from some of the feedback here but amgh I love both songs! Koda Kumi can do no wrong. The whole "touch down, touch down, take me to the ground" is super catchy and Lalalalala is the perfect summer song. I definitely get where people are coming from when they say the songs are very American/Western sounding but Kuu has done Western sounding music in the past and the Kuu-ness still shines through.

[thinkingoutloud89]

she looks like jesssie j

[kumis]

I'll have to listen to the songs again later today but I'm really not impressed. That third song better be sexy

[ExodusUK]

She's her mother, I don't want to see her flat pancake ass hanging out nor do I want to see her saggy breasts.
