I love that kuu's fake tan always looks golden and/or natural, not obviously fake. Even on some of the covers where she was like, deep brown tanned. Shes had so many different shades of tan throughout her career, and also been pale. But yet she suits them all!

[emi♡]

@dr dolce: yes it's you


The covers make her seem sooo tall and lithe. Photography win.

Of course when you notice her proximity to the table and the ground, you can see it. But damn. And that bathing suit makes it seem like her torso extends forever.

I like the weave on her, but I have to say, on the CD only one, it looks like it's way softer than her hair lol


I am totally in love with her lipstick shade.

I agree this tan looks amazing on her. I think Kuu looks best when she's tan. Well, I think everyone looks better tan, but it really suits her, she looks beautiful. Tanning in Japan seems to have picked up again, not just with gyaru.

Also, was there any info on the final tracklist for Summer Trip's DVD? I'm hoping for something like Love Me Back's DVD.

[Zeke.]

I think IS THIS TRAP? sounds similar to the style Namie has been trying to emulate for quite some time now but Ku delivers in one blow.

[ILoveGeniuses]

ITT is still the only song on the single i havent heard LOL

[happiholic★]

If anyone is interested, I created a "set" for Summer Trip on my SoundCloud. It contains the songs, but they play back one after the other, without you having to stop to change the song.

https://soundcloud.com/lovelikecrazy/sets/summertrip

Download links for all songs are available.

EDIT: Also, when the full single is released I plan on removing all the songs. Just a heads up.

[Kaiouforever]

Lalalala sounds WAY too much like her old songs. This doesn't sound new at all. Not a bad song, but I feel like I've heard this before.

Touch Down is a nice b-side. Hot, but not too ****ty.

Is This Trap? is a nice alternative to Touch Down, a little more upbeat and poppy.

Overall, a nice summer single for sure, but Lalalala sounds too familiar, that would be my only criticism. Good job Kumi (and you look amazing).

[Minttulatte]

I somehow feel that Lalalalala and TOUCH DOWN are the b-sides and IS THIS TRAP is the one that finds its way on the album. Of course, if this single is similar to 4 hot wave and 4 TIMES, all songs will be on her next album (which I don't mind at all, of course). :3

I wonder if she'll release a winter ballad single next since there is Koishikute that's already out.

[Gubsi]

^THIS

IS THIS TRAP? is probably the main A-Side!
it's great, maisntream-ish, japan friendly, etc
I think this will turn out like Gossip Candy when they announced Outside/Inside Fishbowl at first and everyone was like "Who Dis!?" lol
and then Boom Lollipop Main A-Side, etc

first that PV shoot months ago and now another shooting after some concerts...
would be a surprise if there's no PV!

her FC Tour starts end of october when i expect her 56th Single & JAPONESQUE LIVE TOUR DVD/BD to promote it and ends end of november, so Album in december...
like they promoted Gttt & 恋しくて at the start/end of Premium Night.

[Lee^ChaN]

wait.. there's a FC tour? how can i miss that?!
Corvina&Gubsi: schatzieee... can i borrow your account?!! XD

Love Me Back's DVD was perfect, I'm up for something like that again

Part of me wants all the songs on her next album because I love them all, but part of me doesn't because that leaves room for more potential masterpieces
Praying she doesn't release another winter ballad before her next album. Koishikute was one of my favourite ballad singles from her but overall I prefer her album ballads, and one single ballad is enough for her albums I think

[Gustavopc]

Hopefully we'll have a one or two a-sided single around October and the album in December. It'd be the perfect time to release a new album, cause there are all those special lives and everything...

Buuuuut... We have the FC Tour on the next semester... It is much simpler than her usual concerts, but it may be a reason for the album to come out later...

oh my God thank you so much my summer is complete.

So LALALALALA is still my favorite... I'm a sucker for these feel-good, run along the beach and smiling to the sky kinda summer songs haha

I love Touch Down too... it's so ghetto in a funny way but really cool with nice beats.

IS THIS TRAP? surprised me cos I thought it's gonna be a ****ty-cool song ala V.I.P but it turns out to be a song that sound like it came from One Direction. so sugary, so pop, so hyper, I LOVE IT

[do it again]

I like all of the songs a lot

[Delicious n Bold]

I will admit that I like IS THIS TRAP?, but only for inside joke reasons XD

[Dream]

nvm >_<
