[Koda Kumi] The 201st Thread - 20th Anniversary Countdown -

[Gustavopc]

Yeah, I agree with Corvina. Also this could give space for the PVs DVD to be changed by a live DVD or something else. Like namie's Finally not having PVs for old tracks but all new tracks had videos.

[junniorkopke]

m・a・z・e is up! ♥ Am I the only one who never understood the plot of this MV?

[lovethatkuu&ayu]

I'm assuming the visit to avex was about finalizing certain details.

A COMPLETE wasn't bundled with PVs and it worked out just fine. Given the scope of Kumi's discography, I'd prefer the BEST project to be spread out in 2 separate releases. One dedicated to uptempos and the other to ballads. They could also release a limited fanclub version with a disc of fan favorites as the bonus.

I also wouldn't be upset if they attached the re(live) concerts to the project.

[mi|kshake]

Looking forward to hearing more about the Best album!

[YUKARI]

I don't follow Kuu much but it feels like her 20th anniversary will be much bigger than ayu's

[jiarongisme]

^ Tell me about it. Kuu's 20th anniversary started while the 19h was ending!

Would love an all time best from Kuu. I'm a sucker for those.

[Diva_br]

I kinda hope for a best + cover album bundle lol But isn't realistic T T

[Corvina]

Kuu is in the studio today!



In the story after it when she's refreshing herself you can hear her apparently watching/working on some concert recordings.

4th week sales of re(CORD):
#164 - 335
Total so far: 15,358

She confirmed with a post that she recorded comments for radio going to be aired through the whole country.
The last sheet you could see in her story yesterday was one with a schedule and the (one?) radio show she made comments for is called Orange Time.

Made more than one comment on her Insta about it.

YES.

[Gustavopc]

I really wish the "re(CODE)" cover project doesn't get shelved after all, and tbh it even makes me sad a bit we didn't get it cause the "re" from reCODE as a cover album would match the "re" in "reLIVE" much more than "reCORD", cause in record she's not re-doing the whole thing. She did cover songs and sampled herself, but as a whole it was a wasted concept imo

[hud]

omg Make It Bump... totally forgot about that one lol. I was actually listening to that Far East Movement album a few days ago. does anyone happen to have their collab?

[Party_King]

Oh a new Outworks & Collabo Best would be awesome!
And finally I would get IT‘S SO DELICIOUS and Make it Bump in HQ ��

[Xianghua]

Atsushi’s Okinawa live where Kuu was a guest performer is gonna be broadcast on WOWOW February 2nd.

[junniorkopke]

Birthday Eve is up!



This one is literally just upscaled, the quality isn't good as you, TAKE BACK and Gentle Words.

[kaled kalil]

@junniorkopke They are all just upscaled, probably with the same source material (DVDs). Gentle Words looks way worse, but it might look better to you since it had a lot of closeup shots. In no way this is a good "hd" upscale.

Spoiler:

Sadly the first 1080p PV was Koishikute.

I wish those uploads could be as good as the 80s MVs companies are uploading on YouTube right now:

Kuu will make an appearance at The 3rd Annual Momo Iro Uta Gassen which's Momoiro Clover Z's version of Kouhaku

Momo Iro Uta Gassen will take place on the last day of 2019 at Yokohama Arena and it will be the 1st time for Kuu and other artistes to take part in it

AbemaTV & BS NTV will livestream it and Momo Iro Uta Gassen will go on until the new year

This should be interesting as it reminds me of how also Golden Bomber organised their own version of Kouhaku after NHK stopped inviting them

I'm sure Momo Iro Uta Gassen will be less X rated unlike Golden Bomber's , lmao

[lovethatkuu&ayu]

Thanks for the information, Karen.

It's about time that legitimate alternatives to Kouhaku start gaining momentum. I understand that Kouhaku is a respected event, but certain dynamics about it are quite problematic in many ways.

[KuuXAyu-fan]

Glad we have 3 TV lives to look forward to so far. Hope she also does the CDTV 2019->2020 live.
