I remember complaining a lot about the lack of new stuff during the tour but when it comes to the concert ifself I really loved it. The simpler stage, outfits, performances of older songs, all that stuff was amazing to me. otoh I enjoyed W fACE Tour when it came out but I think I never got to rewatch it, while I've sen BSC a lot of times. It's not that W FACE was bad but it lacked something to me. I guess it was a bit too similar to the last tours she pulled off by then. It'll be a nice experience to rewatch it now.

While it's not her best tour, BSC was what actually made me interested in Kuu. That alone gives it a bonus for me. :heart

I think BSC delivers it's concept, but that's all. Something like a TROUBLE Tour XD

I really love BSC. It may be simplistic but I LOVE her energy there. And the dance break before Trust Your Love along with that transition is amazing.

Yeah that was it; I had this feeling it was on Gossip Candy but I didn't see it in iTunes. But I think that's where it was featured as a bonus or limited release or something? Thank you!

^it's probably cut outside of Japan due to copyrights.

Yeah I didn't care for the original either so when Kumi decided to cover it my expectations were already really low. But she KILLED this mix. Basically an entire re-invention. I love it.

Kumi performed the Music Fair theme song yesterday, with Ai and other singers and musicians.

THE ARTIST is crazy good. Her vocal, dancing, looks and body were on fire.
I love also the music arrangements chosen (that TOUCH DOWN performance is so addicting)
This was a amazing way to celebrate her 15th anniversary.
Give me high hopes for this year show.


Guys, what is your opinion on DNA Tour ?
2018 is the only year I didn’t watch her shows... I was not really into the material she released that year...

Corvina 3rd May 2020 02:23 PM

Omg, Kuu is going to show the new song, she worked on with all of us in her Insta live, for the first time tonight at Love music!

It's awesome till the last part.
In the last part she put too many songs of the same high energy one after another and imo it gets messy.
Nevertheless overall nice to watch with some iconic ideas and moments.

I like DNA Tour, it's the only one I bought the BD and paid a crazy amount of money for it.

Things I like:
+ She performed all the songs from the album (except Kokoro kara I love you wasn't recorded, but I don't mind since Aenaku naru is a better song);
+ First section is great.
+ Good vocals for the whole concert, even the live broadcast for the Countdown concert had great moments.

Things I don't like:
- Outta my head performance, it's too messy and has no place in the ballad section. It's weird because Insane from W FACE Tour was so breathtaking, and this is basically the same thing with a red outfit but poorly done.
- The last section is a bit of a mess since the songs kinda blend in together.

Corvina 3rd May 2020 06:46 PM

New song is called "for...", Kuu performed a short version.
She explained back in the Insta live that the lyrics are supposed to be like a letter.

It was interesting to follow the birth of this song.
If I understood correctly. She had in her mind the first few lines of the chorus while sleeping before her second Instagram direct and few weeks after the song is almost complete.

It’s a cute mellow song :)


Thanks for your feedback guys. I’ll try DNA Tour this week.

Gustavopc 4th May 2020 08:05 PM

I really like for... so far! Wonder if it'll soon be available for streaming... Should I expect a physical release of any kind? I'm not lol

thinkingoutloud89 4th May 2020 09:46 PM

Crazy how she can do all that without avex behind all of it. Feels more like an independent artist atm.

kaled kalil 4th May 2020 10:57 PM

I believe she changed her view of the business part of her music career ever since getting married to Kenji. It wouldn't surprise me if she owns masters of some of her works, probably W FACE onward.

She has her own studio at home and can create music with her partner, so I guess they can skip a lot of steps that most of the artists has to deal with their record labels (financial support for the record session and other stuff).
