I'm amazed by this album, I like all the songs and they are all great in their own ways.

My fav song would probs be serenade.

I just downloaded the album , hopefully it will be a good one with regards to the non singles as the singles on the album are great

i think anna tsuchiya is so inappropriate in her PV . . how can she dress and behave that way around children in Slap that naughty body? :rolleyes

haha that's a song that's not meant to be taken seriously like Virgin Cat as well

so far the non singles I have listened to are nice , at least it's not straight up rock no.s found on her strip me ? & Taste My Beat EP which's a good thing ! I will hate to see another straight up rock album from Anna

I will get the OS or probably S'pore press of the album in due time

omg Serenade's amazing , I think it's a less creepier version of Marionette imo

this album is really good! in terms of flow, it's brilliant...all the rock songs flow, most of them are in the same style...

masquerade & serenade are very cool. Very different for Anna and its just cool haha. Serenade -> Shape of your love...that flow is great
and cocoon's new arrangement really fits into this transition...i like this version as well..

Cockroach and Style do sound ok hahha..the preview was quite bad...

so i would say this album is really gd :D..
and im surprised too hahah

i dont want to download the album because i dont really like her
but i loved cocoon!!! can someone tell me if the album version is good or not?? if so i will download it for that

I like the NUDY SHOW ! version of cocoon , it's a more striped down version unlike the single version

it's more acoustic driven like what GRACE-y has said before

thanx! i`ll try it. for some reason i was never a big fan of anna but when cocoon came out i had it on repeat for days :yes:yes

cool

it's never too late to discover her music & I think she's really under-rated & offers something different in the jpop music scene

at least from what I heard for the non singles on NUDY SHOW , the songs are good & for once not straight up rock no.s unlike the ones found on her 1st 2 albums & EP

NUDY SHOW ! debuted at no.9 on the 1st day of the Oricon album chart . strip me ? 's 1st day debut position was no.7

^seems great at least she's charting in the top 10.

I hope this album will do well :D

And serenade is aweesomeeee

oh my god i'm in love with this album! really really really good album!!!

serenade+shape of your love+cocoon~nudy show ver.~ are AMAZING

plus, STYLE and DIRTY GAME isnt bad too! love it!

and also i dont think cockroach sounds that bad, i think its okay! although need some time to get used to it

and the last kuroi namida... how should i say it? its just pure awesome!

This album is for sure one of the highlights in J-pop this year.
I'm VERY impressed.
Ill be purchasing this for sure when I can.
Top marks ANNA!

yeah I agree with you guys , so far the non singles that I have heard on the album are pretty good & despite my fears on Cockroach , it's actually not as bad as I thought it will be

Serenade & Shape of your love are some of the good highlights on the album I must say & Dirty Game & Style are nice as well

I will get the OS press of it once it's rolled out in S'pore (hopefully)

I DL'ed NUDY SHOW because I really liked Crazy World and Virgin Cat, and I have to say the album is really good. I'm in love with GINGER, Style, and Serenade.

NUDY SHOW isn`t as bad as i was expecting!!

NUDY SHOW debuted on #9 which is not so good T______________T

Anna was always very underrated, charting at 9 is quite something for her.


I'm really loving this album
And I really dont see why you dont like cockroach that song is soo great :D.

It's a great position considering the rather mild success of her singles. It will probably drop hard later this week.

*nods*

she's not the type that can sell a lot of her material which's unfortunate but true in Japan's context

anyway it doesn't matter to me as I think she's a great artiste/individual in her own right

i dont understand why her sales arent that great!?

here are some point that she should get a higher sales
-she has good looks, cmon, she's a mix too! leah dizon can do it, why not anna?
-she sang for an anime before (that is really a tactic for incresing sales, isnt it?)
-her unique voice. she sounds like dolly, but yet strong in the chorus
-her songs are in rock theme. there's so much J-rock band/artist that are success in japan, why not anna?

EDIT: anna's new song! GUILTY that is going to be the theme song of resident evil!

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x71...eneratio_music

this song need to be indside NUDY SHOW! it sounds really good!! :weep

? How is debuting at #9 bad? I could understand if the album debuted at #90. Now that's bad. But #9? Really? #9 is a great position, not just for Anna but for anyone.

Well definitely not for artists that get promoted like hell such as Kuu, Ayu etc. But for Anna it definitely is good. :yes

It dropped to #10 today.

Get it, Anna! This album was a lot better than I thought.

I think this is Anna's best album to date, I'm thinking of order this for christmas ^^

omg GUILTY sounds great & yes it should have been included in the album :(

it sounded like 1 of her more harder rock songs

Anna sounds ... different in Japanese & I thought she might be talking in English which surprises me

it's a bit strange for her to sing most of her stuff in Eng but yet she's not fluent in it hmm

hey this is weird, now wikipedia said that his father is polish-american, so after all, is she russian mix or polish mix? which is the true? and since when anna has a brother named kenneth? weird...

source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anna_Tsuchiya

^ I thought her ah pa's russian american ??

since when her ah pa's polish american ?

I know that she has a sister named Angela but brother ? I don't think so , not that I know of

^yes wikipedia isnt reliable in entertainment news :P but anyway, there might be true too XP is there any pic of angela's pic? i ownder what will she looks like.

anna's figure is interesting. with thick make up, she will looks like a white people. but with thin make up, she will looks like asian. dont you all ever think so?

Anna's featured in CNN talkasia - http://edition.cnn.com/ASIA/talkasia/ & ok it's confirmed that her dad's polish american from the interview

she performed cockroach live! what live was that? and it is a little it shame for anna for not speaking english there! i wish i could hear her speaking english :heart

yeah I know she did cockroach live & unfortunately I don't know when was that , probably quite recent

& I know she should have spoken English in the interview , it's weird for her not to do so considering that most of her songs are sung in Eng

oo i loved NUDY SHOW! kinda late on that news..but :yes i love it, so i'll try to be active in this thread!

the pic of anna on cnn is so pretty!
so what's her first language?

i dont really like anna's eyeborw, dont you think she fixed it too thin? or maybe this is anna's style!?

i think her first language is still japanese, although she still can speak english quite well (i guess)

I think her 1st language's Japanese which's why I said it's weird for her to sing about 90% of her music in Eng as she's not fluent in it at all to begin with

..well engrish, wait..english? i guess for her, is popular in japan?

I think so & it suits her to do rock music with her image & her voice as well

yeah, she can get all rock with english..i can't imagine really rock with japanese

lol anna is my country star xDD Anna is ours

lol it so nice to know that star like anna have polish blood xD)

I'm surprised for that because I always thought that her daddy's russian american & not polish american

^ i'm proud of her! xD

ofc j/k xD

^you are from poland too? hahah thas really cool! anna should try out another language especially her father's native language! it'll be cool! and did anna mention about her brother in CNN interview?

nope~ no mention of her bro.. only a sis.

progress of NUDY SHOW ! :

9->10->10->10->10

I'm very certain that it will debuted at no.10 overall in the weekly chart

a notch better than strip me ?

hm just noticed something....the songs on NUDY SHOW are rather short, like mostly 3 mins and 40 secs

ya they're Jasmine

oh that's it , I'm gonna order the OS press of it online . Silly Warner SG couldn't gave me an answer when I called them just now on whether will they print it locally or not :eviltongu

1st week sales of NUDY SHOW !

no.10 with 21,240 copies

slightly better than her 1st 2 albums :

strip me ? - no.11 ; 21,036 copies

ANNA TSUCHIYA inspi' NANA (BLACK STONES) - no.17 ; 12,704 copies

^BLACK STONES is higher than nudy show, because it is part of soundstrack for nana, right?

great to know that anna's sales are very constant, although i need more surprise from it. good job, anna!

Whoa..cool..

no leh

so far NUDY SHOW ! is her highest 1st week sales Seb

Anyone can rip SING OR DIE 2?

*10 *21,240 土屋アンナ

great for anna this time
*9 10 10 10 10 *9＼11　土屋アンナ 「NUDY SHOW!」

<333 serenade and cocoon! they've been on repeat all day for me <33

yeah man Jasmine especially Serenade , it's so beautiful & simple :love

cocoon - which one you're talking about ? the single or the album version as both are different in terms of music arrangment

totally do not know that, but i only heard the album version

serenade with the lalala..omg <3333 it's like so addicting, like a dreamy feel to it
cocoon during the parts with it rising up and the guitar and drums..

I like both the single & album versions of cocoon . Basically the single version's a more rock driven no.

cocoon single ver - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfcp0LCjosA

Serenade - yes it's fantastic & imo it sounds like a less scarier version of Marionette with respect to the music box that was used in Serenade

& YAY my review on NUDY SHOW ! is done -> http://karenpang.blogspot.com/2008/1...nudy-show.html

oh i see~ well i don't like things too rock, so the album version is just the perfect song for me..but i'm totally going on a NUDY SHOW! addiction spree ;)

ah ok & I must say this's 1 great album & 1 of the best album releases that I came across this year

can't wait to release the album from my Taiwanese friend Cliff soon <3

^ :rolfmao, feel like every post you say "my taiwanese friend cliff"...i should totally make a poll "just what nationality is karen's friend"
:roflmao

but yeah~ NUDY SHOW is going on my list of best albums of 2008 <3

:roflmao

ok lah next time I just say Cliff that's all & yeah NUDY SHOW ! is a really good album although that wouldn't be my fave album that I came across this year & that it was released this year though

hehe..cliff keep reminding me of red cliff XD
but nudy show's sales are really great~ how long have they been charting?
though i wish the covers were better...tights just bring the bad side out of me

NUDY SHOW ! was released just last week in Japan & the OS press's already out for the album :D

The covers are quite a big LOL but they're more colourful unlike her strip me ? ones which were quite dull & grey

ah ok~ i thought it released like months ago...if only she wore a tutu for the CD+DVD..i mean tutus >>>> tights

nah it was just put out last week in Japan & :roflmao Anna in a tutu ? that will be interesting

honestly I think she can carry off any look possible & still look good

I mean everytime I see her she always has a different look , be it image or colour of her hair

I'm so proud of Anna! NUDY SHOW! did a lot better than I was expecting. Woo top 10 :heart

me too

considering the fact that she doesn't sell a lot in Japan , for NUDY SHOW ! to debut at no.10 it's great

congrats Anna :D

Serenade is such a beautiful/relaxing song...I'm completely in love with it.

I want dvd so bad xD

me too it's so beautiful :weep

I so can't wait to receive my album from my friend Cliff next week man , he mailed out NUDY SHOW ! to me yesterday <3

Is there any chance that you can rip Sing or die?

as much as I want to help you , I don't think it's possible since there's a copyright attached to the dvd

+ I never rip stuff from the dvds in the singles/albums that I bought before :(

I know it is but I am still thiniking how people who ripped things from dvd's go over it xD
So only I can do is just wait xD

Anna will be appearing/performing next Fri at MUSIC STATION :

2008.11.14

• 青山テルマ (Aoyama Thelma)
• 加藤ミリヤ (Kato Miliyah)
• ゴスペラーズ VS 常田真太郎（from スキマスイッチ） (The Gospellers VS Tokita Shintarou (from Sukima Switch))
• SPEED
• 土屋アンナ (Tsuchiya Anna)
• 中島美嘉 (Nakashima Mika)

just curious as to what she's gonna perform ? a non single or a single ?

if you click on http://cgi.ebay.com.sg/J-POP-ROCK-an...1%7C240%3A1318 you can see the back sleeve pic of the CD + DVD of the album

umm ... wow ?

& I like the colour of the OBI , it's so colourful

then again Anna's OBI's are real nice

^ I love the look of NUDY SHOW! I will defiantly be picking up the CD+DVD sometime.

Anna also recently performed GINGER on Music Fair.

I love the dance she does at the 20 second mark :lmfao :heart

she moves like she is drunk or something XD

...why did she fall over at the end XD?

umm...that was interesting..feel like she was kinda high or something XD

:roflmao

she probably went overboard with the alcohol

I'm so excited, I'm getting Spin Aqua's Pisces album for Christmas~ Seriously, Anna's best work ever <3

She also did a performance on Heyx3

http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=23XEQ7SSaVU

She looked better at Music Fair, but the Heyx3 performance is better vocally

http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/l.../dscn9725a.jpg

is this anna?? i remember she did some commercial for baby G right?

Yeps thats her haha

yes that's her Seb , she's a spokesperson for Baby G & that's the reason on why Warner SG decided to release & print strip me ? locally this year because of this to cash in :eviltongu despite the fact that strip me ? was released 2 years ago in Japan

meh $ T_T

^meh, thats a lame excuse for warner to make her CD

but anna's gesture looks so weird there :roflmao

tell me about it it's , Warner will do anything to cash in because 2 years ago they would have done so , not now

same for Kobukuro too

2nd week sales
Position : #14
sales : 9,308
total sales : 30,545
