Hi there! I'm new here, but a huge Kumi fan.

So, I just have to say this new album is amazing, but indeed B. Howard's voice was not good AT ALL. I do not like it and I think the PV could come out really better if he was not there, I just don't see all this chemistry between they two.

THIS. So, so, SO cheesy. It kills me. I will say that it is "strong", but its gross. I really love B. Howard on the track. He sounds like MJ during his Off the Wall era. I think that's why he's gaining popularity, he's an MJ sound-a-like. Anyway, I love everything about Passing By. Passing By, AT THE WEEKEND, Okay and I Don't Love You?! are my favorite tracks. But, I enjoy them all, really.

surreal_rainbow:: thanks for the links. kuu looks so cute!

I love the guy in the song. he puts a nice touch to it and fits so well.
I love the part ''I need youuu, baby guuuuurl.. rai naoo'' XD
glad to know he will probably perform with kuu at dejavu tour.

^Aw, they look so cute! He's so cute looking, even with his "gangsta" hand signs. :P I wanna pinch his cheeks :P

Ahaha, I guess most of us can either like or dislike his voice :P I do wish tho that Kuu had used someone else.

I don't know why, but I think he's better when it comes to photos than to the video. I don't think there was any chemistry between him and Kumi, I just do not see how he fits there.

Also, I'm not too fond of his voice, avex could choose another guy. But as someone said, I think he wrote/composed the demo version, so now here he is! HAHAHA.

^ I guess your rite.

& They do look cute together in that picture.

They should totally hook up.

POP DIVA sales

3rd week = 1,724
Total = 38,472

It surpassed Can We Go Back by 2k!

They would have the most adorably cute children who would stay adorable looking till they were 80. Cuteness overload. B. Howard kinda looks like Off the Wall MJ mixed with Steve Urkel :P

I totally want them to hook up.

^This. Yes honey, preach it! :yes

Thank you God! It's official, my faith in Kuu's music has been restored. :cool I have not been satisfied with a Kuu album since "Kingdom". Nuff' said. ;)

Going through kumi's albums, I just realized that I like every single song on kingdom. I also gave IDLY!?? another listen and I really like it now. So now I like 2 songs after the interlude. adg, and idly. yay I'm liking it more.

Oh yeah... favorite tracks, everyone?

It's hard for me to decide actually!

Top Favs: AT THE WEEKEND, Do I love You !?, Hey Baby!, Suki de, Passing by, Okay, Choi Tashi Life.

I mentioned mine before: Okay, AT THE WEEK END, Choi Tashi Life, Hey baby!

Damn Jpop sales are that low now?


This means I was gone for a while. :no

POP DIVA is a limited single. thats why its being compared with Can We Go Back sales. both singles were limited edition since their respective albums were released after 2/4 weeks :yes

^ Oh cause I'm like what? I remember her atleast selling in the 100,000+

^ her last single selling 100k+ was MOON back in 2008 xD. and It's all Love! sold almost 100k (99k). her sales are declining in some way.. Alive/Physical thing was a flop (45k). but sales for Gossip Candy and Suki de/Anata dake ga were at least decent (85k each one). and POP DIVA outselling Can We Go Back is also a good thing :p

Kumi has her ups and downs like everyone else, but she's still going strong~ :yes
