[Koda Kumi] The 60th Theme of Koda Kumi ~Love & Honey Version~

[jiarongisme]

Hey guys. I have a question. Is the Free TEMPO remix of anytime a first press bonus track of the single?

[do it again]

i don't think anytime has a first press since it was a limited edition single.

i wonder if she'll have a making clip on her album dvd since 2 out of 3 singles are missing it... i love her makings of

even though it's a ballad, i'm glad stay with me is being released because it's at least SOMETHING. i don't want to have to wait 4 months for another single.. i hope the b-side is good too. her next single should be a multiple a-side i think, and then album please!

here's a pic of the back of the FC taboo


it was just the angle the picture was taken that made her look freaky i really like this picture

[Princess Sohee]

^ a multiple a side is too much
shes probably only going to release Stay W/z Me and then another single like a week before the album like she always does
shes gotten so predictable

[do it again]

maybe... but then she will only have like 5 music videos to put on the dvd
unless she makes more to promote the album

i just hope they won't be as ****** and 2 dollar budget like the kingdom ones

[love in music]

dont remind me
of the kingdom non-single videos
x_x

[do it again]

i have spent almost 1000 dollars on kumi things! i like everything though i can't help myself...

in two years she's released like... 30 different things.

Oh, really? How about Ayu's best 2 album, then all best a year later? Screw all the fans who got Best 2? Not to mention silver and gold albums that were totally uncalled for. And did you forget about Exile? The last time Kumi released a best album it was in march 2007...Get your act together and put a more neutral glass please.

what does put a more neutral glass mean

N E WAY as i was saying, yes they do release alot, but kumi does the same thing, and along with that she`s ****ing out singles every 2 months and dvds and everything okay? you need to stop giving me attitude bc i will NOT stand for it

i agree. i don't know what that means either..

(ps MSN is trying to kill me)

[do it again]

i love kumi and her single whoring, even though it's one of the reasons her sales have gone to ****. i guess collectively she still sells a lot, but individual sales don't look that strong anymore.

2007 releases: BUT, BEST ~B&L~, BEST ~second session~ tour, FREAKY, ai no uta, LAST ANGEL

2008 releases: anytime, Kingdom, Black Cherry Tour, MOON, Kingdom Tour, TABOO, stay with me

2006 was the worst (or best!): Lies, feel, Candy, No Regret, ima sugu hoshii, KAMEN, WIND, Someday, BEST ~second session~, koi no tsubomi, 4 hot wave, BEST ~first things~ tour, yume no uta, WON'T BE LONG, Cherry Girl, Black Cherry.

it's expensive to be a koda kumis fan...

[love in music]

but to be a fan you don't have to buy everything :/

[do it again]

if you're a true fan you do...

not really, but i feel proud 2 support her sales..

XDDDD, agree *___* ! And I had FC edition, magazines... to pay... =D

[do it again]

i bid on the FC edition of TABOO on ebay! it comes with the bonus things

i haven't bought any magazines though
but if woofin' girl scans don't come up i will buy it bc i think she looks grate in them

[love in music]

oh man
magazines are so expensive x_x
i would want to buy one just for the kumi pics..and put on my wall..but on ebay they sell for at least $20

[do it again]

yeah with shipping they are like 20 dollars... idk if i'd want to pay that much for just a few pictures. i will just take HQ scans to a printer place and have things made out of them if i really like the pictures!

With neutral glass, I meant that you have a certain bias towards koda kumi. I don't know if it's intention or not or that's the way you are. See things as they are and not direct in a bad way.

You are involving DVDs of live concerts and her singles. This year she released two singles (soon they will be 3), 2 dvds and 1 orignal album. It looks pretty normal to me, a healthy artist who isn't whoring stuff. Exile and Koda Kumi are not the same. They released 2 best albums this year with a 4 months of time and are planning on releasing another one next year. It does bother me when you put them both at the same sentence. Now I understand, that Koda Kumi was a release ***** in the past. What with her 12 singles thing. She released a best album in 2005, 2006 and 2007 which isn't as dramatic as people would expect.

Anyway, my point is...Things change. Yet people keep their same thought of a person or thing. If you look at her 2008 release, it looks perfectly normal.

Back to Kuu discussion

[do it again]

ok so i'm really bored and i'm listening to the stay with me preview over and over and i'm trying to write down the words... this is what i have, no idea if it's right though... i don't speak japanese lol

wasuredeinai kokoro iru yo
made mune ni omoideru LOVE SONG
yuki ga sora wo kazatte mo
chiiyuku wo mo ima mo
stay with me

jikan wo wa surete

so i was using the hiragana typing feature on my computer and this is what it came up with

忘れデイ内　心いるよ
間で胸に思い出る　LOVE SONG
雪が空を飾っても
地位行くを今も
stay with me

i ran it through google translate and this is what it gave me

I remember the day in the heart
I get to the heart with LOVE SONG
Snow also decorate the sky
Standing still to go
stay with me

Time to forget

there's different kanji that comes up when you type it in hiragana, and everytime it comes up as something different, so i can't be sure if it's correct, but it makes sense i guess? some of you that know japanese more might know which ones are the right ones depending on the context

i really like the sound of it now, i was underwhelmed with the preview.

edit: ok koudakumiko2120@HoneyFlash helped me w/ the romaji for the first two lines

wasurenaide koko ni iru yo
mada mune ni omoide no LOVE SONG

the first line translates to "Do not forget to be here" which is completely different from the one i came up with lol, but it makes even more sense. the second one i have no idea bc i keep getting different results.

[love in music]

^ lol lovely engrish!

now i really hope for a wintery PV, kind of like YOU. but her not crying so much

[do it again]

i was thinking of that! i love the you pv, except the overdramatic sobbing.
she looked gorgeous in it though. i loved her hair.

i wonder what kind of look she will do for the live performances... usually her ballads have great outfits. yume no uta had cool hats, unmei had pretty kimonos, aisho... i didn't like so much bc of the wigs, ai no uta had cool striped outfits... moon crying dresses were ugly, plain and boring though. i think out of like 10 lives she did for it, i liked one or two dresses.

i wish the b-side will be a grate engrish recording of an american christmas song...
