Beautiful covers...but wow I really hated the material musically she had last year except for the song BLACK & BLUE and THE END. I hope the rest of the album songs are more in style like MUSIC(her best original album in my opinion).

The album covers are gorgeous, especially the CD+DVD.

cover looks nice nice~

I love the covers ^^ I prefer the CD only, but I wanna have them both!!

Yeah I miss her old material. I was a little iffy about her gospel-style music but I thought her rock music was pretty good. I really like her jazzy music though. I think that sets her apart from many of the other J-pop artists out there. =P

has the single been made official yet?? or is it just another rumor?

I am very excited for the album! It's been a while since 'MUSIC' :) can't wait to hear 'YES'

More info for this album:
The A-Side Sunaou no Mama don't appear in this album, and the B-Side Fever contains a special participation.

The album startin' with Mienai Hoshii and finish with WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD.

The album version for I LOVE YOU it's remasterized and re-orchestred. But the PV version of I LOVE YOU of DVD don't contain changes, okay?

Sankiyou^^

I'm really digging the covers... I think I could stare at them for hours <3
On the same note, YES! FINALLY A NEW ALBUM <3

it's not even out yet...

and ZOMG there IS a new single out o.o;

i'ma go listen to the previews now >D

EDIT: was there ever a pv for black and blue? and what are the opening/ending videos?

Yes,BLACK & BLUE PV was included in Southern Comfort DVD.I have never seen the PV actually.And for the OP/ED video,I still have no idea.

Wasn't the PV for BLACK & BLUE photos/vids of Mika in America - even I haven't seen it

Is the DVD going to end up having pretty much the same material as the most recent Film Lotus?

Isn't Lori Fine & COLDFEET one same person? XD

Pre-ordered both today, I totally can't wait, I love her stuff so much, Mienai Hoshi is so gorgeous *o*

Yeah, I'm pretty sure.
