Oh what the heck! She can do the rope thing???? Holy crap...I think its so funny how none of Ayu's "professional" dancers could pull it off in 2007 and here's Koda Kumi performing on the rope and singing at the same time @_@

covers for Alive/Physical thing are out :).

yup, for a couple of days now.

really? i didn't see them, sorry guys :doh

anyways, they're very pretty, and my favorite would have to be the CD+DVD.

Aww...I thought they were bigger covers! :laugh

wow Jackie!! you're sexy & awesome!! (i wanna see you in blue tape :lech)

@Gubsi: :roflmao.. i love lesson #16

Sorry :weep

@jackie oh yes, forgot to comment on your dancing :yes. i liked it! you did very well. i've always wanted to record myself mimicking kumi's or namie's dances in their songs but i have no privacy and no way of recording myself :weep

do you take dance classes?

it's fine Temmy

it's still great to see them anyway :D

HQ will be up in due time :yes

i love these performances :luv2 she is the best performer ever! :yes
OMFG jackieros, i love your dance :heart do more please :love
gubsi, your lessons made me laugh as always :laugh #18 my favorite xD

because she is amazing!

wow, so cool! kuu was in water! :luv2

Those covers are amazing. I never even heard the samples and I want to buy these singles; this is the power of a beautiful cover shot.

^I would generally say dont judge a book by its cover (although I personally could not help but judge Ayu's Sunrise/Sunset~LOVE is ALL by the cover. That mess was plain horrifying) but in this case...the songs ARE as good as the covers :laugh

They give me a wow feeling. Ayu, hire this photographer, please.

^Turns out to be the guy who shot the covers for Sunrise/Sunset~LOVE is ALL! :laugh!!! It's like no! Go away!!! Please! :innocent

OMG Jackie you are so cute and cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe a lil bit more energetic

thumbs uppp

and the single covers are....OH MY GOD SO BLOODY NICE!!! Too bad Alive sux

she already has! :angel

^Wait...it's the shimawababwadda guy w/e his name is? The one who destroyed the Sunrise/Sunset covers? @_@

idk for sure, but i think someone said it was him..? either way he's done a lot of great kuu photoshoots.

:laugh I'm gonna laugh if Leslie Kee or ND CHOW was the photographer in this cover shoot! XDD

btw kingdom is back to the chart
275　---　***,477　*,611,679　*31　倖田來未 「Kingdom」
I wonder what makes it back to the chart

221　274　***,603　*,*64,014　*17　倖田來未 「KODA KUMI DRIVING HIT'S」

^ mm
new single has no connection to old album, right?

it]s sup0ercool. but it would be even better if TRICK started selling like hot cookies an made it at least 500k

Gah, those covers are so, so beautiful o___o

Kingdom probably rose back up due to HMV lowering the price of it :)

its true for Koda often that new single has no connection to her old albums.But it is not the case in Ayu.

I favourited the Black Cherry performance.

really pretty covers !
her best since MOON :p i prefer cd+dvd.

I love the new lessons. They are awesome.

kuu got a lot of promotion lately so I'm not surprised that some people got intrested in her albums from this year and last year. It's cool. ^-^

i don't know if this was mentioned here, but the Alive / Physical thing page was updated on kuu's official website, and it says that those who will buy the first press of the single will get a link to a site where they can stream the Taiwan concert.

thanks for the news! i can't wait omg!!!!

wait.. if you get cd only, you get the audio from the tour only? and u get cd+dvd, u get the whole thing? and won't ppl just share links anyway?

:no if you get the cd+dvd, there will be bonus footage on the dvd, but the cd will not have anything. both will have access to the site. it said something about a serial number, so you'll probably have to enter that to get access.

So all we need is one of us to buy the first press. Then that person can share the link with all of us! :lech

oh okay, thanks. i read on cd-japan something about cd only having audio to the concert and for the cd+dvd it says footage. that would be pretty dumb though to only let people hear the concert's audio.

o_o; I don't see it on her official site! :weep (The covers, I mean..)

o.o Nor did I

you know, a lot of people like the CD + DVD cover.. but i think its ugly.

I LOVE THE CD COVER!!!

The covers are from her fanclub, they aren't on the official site yet.

me too! me too!!:tipsy

seriously , HQ covers of Alive / Physical thing need to be up & running soon :luv2

I want HQ covers to make sets lol

kuu appeared at j-wave 2000+9 today!

nice setlist & Koda looks great/hot in that dress :luv2

love her eyeshadow too but not her nails :no

I love her hair! And NICE set list!!!

Ooh, she looked great! She should keep her hair that way!

That was a nice setlist, too.

Misono looks...okay?

OMG Kuu looks so gorgeous!
I love her hair!! :luv2
misono looks strange as ever! :laugh

very beautiful my kuu, as always :luv2

Whut?

what are you talking about? she hasn't even done anything wrong...lately at least

Kumi looks HOT! <3 Misono, on the other hand... Well... :\

I know that. I'm just wondering what he meant by that.

I dont like misono, riding Kumi's coattails all the time :innocent. But she sure looks pretty in those pics

i think it's funny how at one point kumi was a nobody and misono's band was very successful. my, how things have changed...

i really love how kuu looks in that new picture with misono though, i pray she keeps that hairstyle.

:laugh

omg! so qt. best hairstyle in a long time

good job cropping misono out!

same! that hair looks really good. i hope she'll have it in her new PV's too

thanks, i like to pretend like she doesn't exist sometimes

we should be getting the wowow broadcast of trick tour soon, right? :angel1

it's going to air in 12 hours. hopefully someone will record and upload it!

^I hope that too!
I want to see it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that dress on her's still :luv2

i love how kumi's dress probably cost about 10 times as much as misono's outfit. she has been wearing such expensive outfits lately!

Gosh, that first pic of Kuu with her blue eyeshadow and her hair down and a little curled like that is :heart!!!! She looks amazing!

#22 is killer

I've made some scans of older magazines I've got this week.
I haven't seen those pics in higher quality in the net.
