what's her obsession with the word love

Not to mention Ayu's and ai otsukas as well? lol.

I think with kana and ai it's more about keeping a consistent theme or common thread running throughout their entire careers, which I appreciate. But with ayu, it was just kind of annoying because her theme was always variation.

To be fair, Ai's name is love.

She's matured her look (for these two releases at least) and I think she looks good. But her video! "Look at camera, look away. Repeat 50 times."

Her music has never really been that original in my opinion. But that's just me. (It felt more original before her increase in popularity, then it was just so similar and predictable--some people like that though.)

out of all the b-sides to put on the album, I'm surprised she put '25' in there.

Yes, yuck.

[tenshi no hane]

I'm glad 'cause I really like 25~ ..I seem to be the only one

Anyone listen to Suki single yet? I really like I Say No. The other two.. not so much.

Not really. I like that song a lot
In fact one of the few songs from her discography that I like

[Minttulatte]

Suki is out already? Gotta listen to it tomorrow.

Nice tracklist too. Lots of Japanese titles here too. I'm curious about this album. None of the singles I've heard has impressed me so far. :/

[TeamAyu2004]

25 is weird for me... but its okay... Its gonna be one of those songs you listen to part way and then skip.
Cool, I'm done. lol

Does anyone know how often Kana does a proper tour? She's announced dates for the 'with LOVE' tour for 2015.

I don't think I'm gonna be in Japan til September though! I'll be staying for a full year, so hoping I get to see her.

pretty much every years, most of the time either during Spring, or more towards Summer, 'til the end of August I think.
She also does Halloween or Xmas themed concerts.

Suki is boring. 6 minutes too. A letdown for me. I was hoping for a spirited b-side like Christmas Love again this year but alas, a wasted opportunity.

[Zeke.]

This album is so much more boring than Love Place. I really enjoyed Love Place. The singles and b-sides were both superior during that era.

[TeamAyu2004]

I rather enjoyed the suki song. Much better then the little preview gave us... its still bland, but not too boring. The single itself is rather... blah though.

[Earth_maiden]

I just watched the Darling PV. Kana wants to promote equality between phones and lipstick relations?

[Beauty4123]

The "with LOVE" tracklist looks absolutely lovely. I like all the titles! Especially "Abracadabra". I'm totally looking forward to listening to that song & the whole album!

[Surreal17]

with LOVE Sales
Oricon Daily Albums Chart : #1
First Day Sales : 39, 057

My favourite new songs from the album are Gomen Ne and Abracadabra. She shouldn't have included LOVE & JOY and Stand Up. Those songs are the definition of bland.
