I also really like that PV concept.
The multicoloured hairstyles representing the different selves she was in the past and working as transition states between her old styles (the first white-blue bob is probably supposed to resemble the one from Ecstasy PV, the black short one she already revealed as Ima sugu hoshii, the purple pigtails are Ultraviolet). When she's drinking the water, we're entering her inner self, her current self with her natural hair, representing her past making her who she is now. I also like that the mirror, she is talking to in the lyrics, are basically we, the audience of the PV. And the people washing and cutting her hair representing the influences from outside shaping her.
Even tho I think that whole era with AND DNA and the PVs would be really fitting to her 20th Anniversary!
Thanks for translating and explaining! I thought it was something like that when watching the video, but now it all clicks together!

Oh well.... I read here that she will wear a Versace dress in the PVs and it has to be the one I like. Dont't think I will ever spent that much money for a dress, so I'll keep on admiring the dress on Kuu

Spoiler:
I'm not surprised , AKIHIDE had an outdoor release event to do tomorrow for his new solo album & a few hours ago Being has rescheduled it to next month

Likewise , SPYAIR's annual outdoor JUST LIKE THIS concert at Fuji Q Highland might get canned too & that also almost happened last year but the concert still went on and fans had to wear raincoats cos the rain was so heavy


Anyway safety comes 1st
So now what? How will this be made up, including Kuu's act? Add more artists on the upcoming later dates?

Full radio rip of Dangerous in LQ:

https://www.facebook.com/KumiGermany...9255619415496/

Credits to All 4 U on Twitter/youtube for recording the full radio show with Kuu yesterday!
I've met him in Nagoya on both AND Tour dates and he is a really nice guy and passionate Kuu fan.^^

Ah, man, listening to the full part with Kuu and they're playing parts of the album in the background while talking with her. xD
WATCH OUT!! gets evern more grungier in between, people are gonna hate it, hahaha.
But it also has an interesting sounding break.

@Bigtop:
They haven't decided yet and gonna inform as soon as they will.
Next a-nation date is already next weekend in Nagasaki, but after that it's a week off till Osaka. Maybe they can reschedule there?

Ohhh, I love that version of Bling Bling Bling, and Japanese fans seem to like it as well since this song pops up in her festivals very often. Give us the studio version, Kuu, pls

To be honest I prefer when AK69 isn't there with her, so she can dance during the rap part. It's always so awkward the interaction between them in that part.

About HAIRCUT, love the PV! It has a very Mika Ninagawa style, with the colors and the butterflies, even tho I don't think she's the director of this PV. The only thing I don't like it's how "wiggy" some of the hairstyles look. We know the girl has a good collection of wigs, with lace fronts and all, but some of the looks (the pink hair with dark roots and the first one) are very fake and kinda distracting. I do understand that's easier do just put a regular wig on, but anyway.

Judging by the dancers outfit this may be the dress rehearse. Not sure if I like the outfit, black again for a summer concert.

They're wearing the shirt from her a-nation goods and matching shorts (Kuu, too).
Those shorts are probably going to be part of the DNA Tour goods, if I have to guess.

How I missed the HAIRCUT mv is beyond me but that was one kick-ass video! The song is somewhat...iffy but I had the same feeling about the whole AND album and now I jam out to it on my way to the office on a regular basis.

By the way, does anyone know how long it takes for the US iTunes to update her store page with her new releases?

Kuu posted about the ballad '会えなくなるくらいなら'.
It's about a painful love. A love to somebody, you know really well,and that's why you hide your feelings. And this person is looking at you, but seeing somebody else instead because of that.

It's from the same person, who composed 'you', Yoko Kuzuya.

I forgot that NHK Songs is also another music show that's recorded in advance so that's another possibility , besides Buzz Rhythm 02 , CDTV , Premium Melodix , Music Fair , Shibuya no Oto
