I easily prefer Jumping (it was just TOO good..in Japanese), but STEP is really good. The video is incredible and the song is very catchy. I'm glad there was a lot of focus on Hara, since she's my favorite. The rap part was amazing too. Glad to see Nicole for once do a rap that isn't totally corny :laugh

it's like a megamix of Mister, Jumping and Lupin, lol !!
i like it, isn't my favourite song, but the pv is really good

I haven't listened to the whole album but STEP is good, and I love the MV !

:roflmao i love her raps. my fav is the one in honey:heart (well, that song is just perfect <3)


can't wait for perfomances:heart

cant believe they already won TWICE :faint its good they are winning now, before all the bigger artists return!

ive been putting STEP on repeat the whole time its soooooooooo gooodddd :luv2 :luv2 especially the shout and rap part :laugh

I love step, but unfortunately it's the only track i like on the album :( but like, step is super fun and addicting :heart

Isn't KARA considered a big act too now :rolleyes? The song is good, the girls have improved their singing (minus Hara, there was one MR removed performance where she really sucked), they have some kind of following now too so I'm curious wether they would stand their ground even against other big acts. While I'm happy that they win, it feels like they've only won bc there was no real competition (Davichi doesn't have the typical idol following and has to rely on digital sales for a award win).

their upcoming japanese single is called Winter Magic and will be released on October 19th!!

tracklist:
EXCITEDDDD!!!!! i hope it'll have a real cute PV with a snowman and all :laugh

^yay! whisper sounds like a ballad! but i hope winter magic is really cute cute cute lik go go summer!:luv2 but with a winter feel

^your description somehow reminded me of after school's happy pledis mini album XD
but yay! I hope the single will be great and if there will be ballad(s) I hope it won't be boring :3

REALLY hoping it won't be a ballad. KARA just doesn't make ballads very good or interesting. They're much better with upbeat songs. Whisper sounds like it could be really cool, but it's only a b-side so I have no idea what to expect. I'm hoping we'll get Japanese versions of STEP, Rider, and 따라와 on the next Japanese album and that the rest is new/the singles.

I think it will be a cute and upbeat song (like Jet Coaster Love and GOGO SUMMER!). And the b-side probably is a ballad

Winter Magic (sounds like a radio rip)



I really love it. :luv2

^omg, im loving it so much!!!!

it's flawless

It's great. I love it that their songs always have an Japanese style, but you still know that it's Kara :luv2.

^That :heart

The song sounds so much like a cute anime ost :3 I like it!

i like it !! but for ME it's to early for that kind of songs (Christmas is here or what, XD)
