The 35th Official Koda Kumi Thread

[omgpeachsnapple]

^ Well ... I'm sure she does want her promotions back. Probably not in the way they're thinking but I'm sure she'd like to be out there promoting her new album.

I haven't heard majority of her songs....so, I want to watch the TOUR DVD that gives her best vocal performance as well.

Any recommendations?

I'd start with the First Things tour

[Kikaru]

Best ~ss~ special live or something (it isn't the big tour, but the one with just the hall concert). I don't know if it's on DVD, but I know it's on dailymotions.

I really liked that one.

You haven't heard a variety of her songs eh?
Hmm... thats hard cause all her tour DVDs have been really good...
Second Session & First Class Limited Live have so far been my favourites...
first things tour was abit meh.. its good but its not as good as the other two...
Vocally..? Kuu usually never disappoints vocally cause she sounds amazing live!! (trust me I've seen her live)

[Huaka]

So, I was reading that perhaps Kuu's comments offended the Japanese imperial family because the princess had a child after she was 35. Her second week sales look very poor, might not even break 100k.

They are weird....... serious......

Koda is too occidental for them....lol

[MemorialAddress]

Okay seriously, Im sure it will sell over 100k in 2nd week.
I mean, its not like EVERY SINGLE FAN start hating her after this

[Luv ~Venus~]

^Oh, but plenty of them are disliking her now.

I doubt that she will sell over 100K, prolly near the 100k, but not over it. At this point, I wonder will the public apology do her any justice for her upcoming releases.

Oh, and thanks for the recommendations everyone[well, to those who recommended them to me].

[MemorialAddress]

HEY LUV I LOVE YOUR SIGNATURES LOL

But I do hope the album will still sell at least 700k

[Kaiouforever]

Ayu didn't sell that well in her second week, so if Kuu has a drop in sales, I'm not gonna be terribly shocked, especially since her promotion has been pulled. Doesn't matter though - I love Kingdom <3 *listens to whole album again*

[Chidori_73]

Okay.....

Well, I'd say "Best ~second session~ Live Tour" has been my favourite so far, aside the fact her voice is even better live, it's surprising to see that even though the stage never changes, or she doesn't do a lot of clothing changes, still, this concert keeps you sitting there, the whole time. I found it magical, and after that I started to like Kumi and get more interested in her music. Thing I dislike? The ending. She didn't have to strip -almost- completely. To make it worse, my mother was close to me when that happened, so try to see that final part alone ^^;

That's scary. I hope it's only a rumour, if the imperial family says something about it, that would be the end of Kumi's career.

About the next BEST, it seems very rushed! Like a mishmash of whatever extra material they got, some remixes, and there it is. A brand new BEST. Maybe Avex announced this in order to make us forget about the scandal? I don't know. If it was announced before, correct me.

[Amai Yume]

From seeing sites taking it off (HMV), I'm guessing the album will be postponed to maybe April and do a BUT / Aishou - BEST~BOUNCE & LOVERS~ situation again by releasing it on the same day as her rumored 4 A-side single. Hopefully the next era will go scandal free. Kingdom is AMAZING! It deserves only the best.

Please, can we move on? I'm not tryin' to sound mean or anything but this is boring and we've been over this like 10x already? Jeez, this thread is starting to turn into a freakin' Ayu thread...no offence!

I'll start a topic!

I personalloy loved the ~first things~ tour the most, ~ss~ got boring after 1 watch and was a bit dissapointing in parts, the secret live is better too so I would watch the ~first things~ tour or the secret live tour!

[DestinyWishes]

I haven't seen her tours yet except for Secret, but it is a really impressive concert.

[LacusClyne]

i found the clip of kuu apologizing at youtube.

[polka-dot-jewel]

^ I had no idea what anyone was saying in that clip (with the exception of a few words), but it was sad! Kuu looked very sincere, and I felt so sad for her. ;__; And she looked very pretty, too!!

[MsMiyabi]

Aww she is crying. Poor Girl

[stickyrice]

aww I started to tear a bit =( I feel so bad for her!!
