[Koda Kumi] 131st Thread ✯✶✯ Dejavu ✯✶✯ - Page 22

I still love every song on Dejavu. <3 I gotta say that TRICK was a disappointment for me as well when it was released. Of course it grew on me but for me it lacks the proper Kuu feeling that Kingdom, UNIVERSE and Dejavu has. That is the main reason why I didn't like TRICK as much as I loved Kingdom which was, and still is, a masterpiece from my point of view.

Me too, and even if I didn't LOVE Universe from begining to end, there were some pretty awesome songs there. Not here though and I'm really disappointed. I think I'm going to just buy the singles I liked instead.

apparently me + other 3 persons are the only in the universe... who prefer UNIVERSE, lol

Oh baby! Not liking Dejavu is one thing but saying UNIVERSE is better?!?!?!?

lol j/k

I honestly can't make it through one minute of the majority of the songs on UNIVERSE and It's all love just does not exist to me...

tbh, I think they are both stronger albums than Black Cherry. I don't get the love for that album... it was basically made of singles and a few lackluster album tracks. I grew so bored of it too fast.

edit:: Who else is in love with Passing by?

I can't stop listening.

I agree about Black Cherry, it really wasn't that great but it did have some great songs. I mean I can't completely hate on it because it has JUICY! xD;

And yes, I love Passing by, too!

thanks tenshi for the translations!!

x-megumi-x · #**429** 27th February 2011, 05:24 PM

I like Dejavu much more than I thought I would

Actually, I only don't like Melting. I'm not too fond of Aitakute too...

Passing By is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. Definitely my favorite track off the album.

U-GO-BOY · #**430** 27th February 2011, 05:27 PM

okay so I couldn't resist and am listening to the album right now..

Okay sounds okay..
Aitakute was boring..
Passing by is Dejavu's No way, sounds good..
AT THE WEEKEND is a sexy dance song, Kumi should make more of them *-*
I'm not in the mood to listen to Melting.. it's ubercute ~.~"
Hey baby! was the new intro song for Shin-chan right? I liked the song when I first heard it and I like it now, too
blahblahLife is another cutesy song.. somehow it reminds me of Birthday Eve or Sweet Kiss, don't know why though
Bambi.. new genre for Kumi.. I like that country-sound.. but it's again so supercute..
I Don't Love You!?? is a grower, I think.. it has got that dance-sound but it's also very cutesy.. meh.. I don't know if I love it!?? haha

Intro and Interlude weren't neccessary, she should've made TRICK's Intro into a full song..

Seriously yes, UNIVERSE was such a fun album.

I am loving Dejavu but UNIVERSE is still my favourite

Corvina · #**434** 27th February 2011, 06:17 PM

I'm loving UNIVERSE as well, but Dejavu is seriously topping it!
I didn't even think that that was possible. XD I just love that she is doing more R&B and urban stuff again, as well as her dancing, electro songs keep popping up.
TRICK is the weakest album from the last three for me, has some highlights, but also some bad songs.

Zeke. · #**435** 27th February 2011, 06:26 PM

I guess I never realized how bad TRICK was because I am/was obsessed with Driving, loved Show Girl and also really enjoyed This is not a love song, and really when I get 3 album tracks that I love (when it comes to Kuu), I'm ok with that because she releases so frequently.

Corvina · #**436** 27th February 2011, 06:33 PM

There are such gems as TABOO, Driving and Moon Crying on TRICK.
But also Your Love, stay with me and Joyful... can't stand those songs. Also not a fan of Ai no Kotoba, but the recent lives of it were beautiful.
It's 60/40 % for me, I guess.

matt9210 · #**437** 27th February 2011, 06:49 PM

The prologue and interlude to Dejavu are awesome. The only new songs that stood out straight away were AT THE WEEK END and Bambi. I'll give the rest of the album time to grow on me, but I don't think it will beat Kingdom, TRICK, and UNIVERSE in my list of favourites.

Passing By would be much better without the man, seeing him in the video is more annoying :/

kaled kalil · #**438** 27th February 2011, 06:52 PM

TRICK and UNIVERSE are more memorable, to me. Dejavu don't have so much songs that I feel "I have to listen this all the time"

TRICK - Driving, show girl, This is not a love song, Hurry Up, JUST THE WAY YOU ARE (TABOO and stay with me from the singles)
UNIVERSE - Step Into My World, Work It Out, You're So Beautiful, SUPERSTAR (yes, I love SUPERSTAR

), UNIVERSE, No Way (Physical thing, ECSTASY, Can We Go Back from the singles)
Dejavu - Hey Baby!, I Dont Love You !?? (Lollipop, POP DIVA, Anata Dake Ga, Suki de³)

Passing By the guy destroyed the song to me

AT THE WEEKEND I still feeling no fierceness in the vocals. The part "It's too much" or "This pretty little missy 见切りが早いの" is so weak

yess I hate ai no kotoba so much. like seriously, her voice sounds so bad & whiny in that song. her ballads she releases now are so much better.
dejavu is my 3rd favorite kuu album now. I'm sick of secret now and I don't know why I considered it my favorite for so long. my top 3 are Black Cherry, Kingdom, Dejavu now.

ALfromHELLSING · #**440** 27th February 2011, 07:08 PM

How can you not love POP DIVA? It's one of her Best songs ever. It has become 5th top played song in my library in two weeks.

It'll become #1 in no time.

He didn't destroy it for me but definitely made it my least favorite song on the album.

But he destroyed PV for sure. I wish she made PV for Aitakute instead.
