unflattering photo of her up there,. but i'm kinda excited for her new single

Mirai Noah 7th October 2010 07:16 PM

I like the promo photo more than the cover, but still looking forward to this single! :)

NintendoHTF1242 8th October 2010 12:26 AM

Why couldn't the promo be the cover :(

jeffycue 8th October 2010 02:59 AM

does anyone have those digital singles up for downloads?

hayasaki 8th October 2010 09:05 AM

Yay! for the new thread. I'm so excited for the new single...

yaeah another beautiful song. the opening reminds me to miss you

NintendoHTF1242 9th October 2010 01:30 PM

I FINALLY FIGURED OUT WHY I DON'T LIKE THE COVER! She looks like a shark!

omg I'm so happy the song is NOT a cover. Thank you Yuna. Not a bad song actually.

Luja. 9th October 2010 02:10 PM

That new song is sooo pretty!:heart
Wow, it's been so long since I last listened to a Yuna Ito song..

KarenPang 9th October 2010 02:33 PM

Mamotte Agetai is pretty

it's like a sequel to trust you I feel but yeah she still does best when comes to ballads :)

Beauty4123 9th October 2010 06:46 PM

it's such a lovely song! it's like alone again, but i think alone again is much better, lol. :P still, mamotte agetai is really beautiful!

Utena 9th October 2010 07:44 PM

^ exactly my thoughts. But it feels so nice to hear a new Yuna song that I keep it on repeat since this afternoon <3

Pieces_of_SEVEN 9th October 2010 07:52 PM

yay thanks for the new song~

Mirrorcle Monster 9th October 2010 07:58 PM

I love the new ballad!!
Thanks!!

Yoake 10th October 2010 01:00 PM

I don't really like the cover of the new single. The promo pic is better.

The song sound nice but it's not my favorite ballad of her.

Teppei-chan 10th October 2010 04:11 PM

It#s a nice song but I like some of her ballads more. But I'm happy that she finally realeas a new single

Flame Sniper 10th October 2010 05:23 PM

Yay, a new Single! And a Ballad too; I've been waiting forever for this :heart:heart

Hopefully it'll sell well *saving for preorder*

KarenPang 12th October 2010 04:54 AM

Buce made a good point & the truth does hurt sometimes

Yuna is not able to go back to stellar sales like what she had during her shortlived NANA peak period anymore .__.

Picaflor 7/4 12th October 2010 05:32 AM

^I thought his name was bruce. parents were too lazy to put the r in? lol

~Inori~ 12th October 2010 05:35 AM

Trust me, I know Yuna may never sell as well as she used to. So, I don't disagree with what he said because it's the truth.

I just wonder if she knows that.

Mirai Noah 12th October 2010 06:26 PM

Poor Yuna... :(

It's an album, due to the prices (or it could just be another HUGE single like Superfly did lol, but leaning towards more of album).

TITANIC 13th October 2010 08:13 AM

oh, should be an album then. might be a mistake from livedoor. they posted in single category

waterballoon 13th October 2010 08:36 AM

I've a feeling it's gonna be a cover album; there HAS to be a reason why she's got videos for 2 cover songs lol...

Utena 13th October 2010 12:18 PM

3 versions? that's interesting. I wonder what is that second CD+DVD.

noisy_harmony 13th October 2010 02:50 PM

Utena 13th October 2010 06:05 PM

^ Less weird that way. But... means that I'll have to buy two version WTH?!
I'm feeling a BEST+COVER CD..

Beauty4123 13th October 2010 06:28 PM

wow, i wasn't expecting an album! whether it's a BEST or studio album, i'm very curious as to what it'll be.

KarenPang 13th October 2010 06:34 PM

I have a feeling this release will be her last one before her contract with Sony BMG is up ? :O

I'm not sure . I wait for more updates to surface exactly on what this's all about before doing anything else

Utena 13th October 2010 06:42 PM

^ It's not because she does not sell as much as she used to do that they'll drop her XD.
It's probably time for her to release a BEST anyway, and Xmas is coming so it's definitly a good timing imo :).

Looking foward to this even if I own almost all her CDs anyway.. They're really cheap on yahoo auctions nowadays, I made a great deal buying all those cds at once x)

KarenPang 13th October 2010 06:48 PM

lol yeah I guess you're right on that Mylene

still , I wait for more details to be out on this then I decide whether to get it or not

there's always Taiwan/HK press to fall back on so 8D

it can be annoying when something like this tends to happen ~_~

Utena 15th October 2010 02:56 PM

I personally so much prefer the cover over the promo picture. It looks so cheap compared to the lovely cover.

waterballoon 15th October 2010 03:01 PM

^ well true, she needs come curtrains on the promo pic too :laugh

Utena 15th October 2010 03:05 PM

^ It could make it look better for sure xD

waterballoon 15th October 2010 03:12 PM

I hope we get gorgeous booklet pics though!

AyUta 17th October 2010 06:35 AM

Aw, how pretty she is :heart I like the new song a lot <3

Utena 22nd October 2010 08:00 PM

lol so each time an artist release a best, they have to leave their compagny? I don't think so. I don't see why she would release a single and then leave, it makes no sense.

Beauty4123 22nd October 2010 08:02 PM

isn't yuna due for a BEST album by now anyway? so i doubt sony will just drop her after this. i do hope this album will get good sales, though! at least 300k-500k. :P

adantatu2 23rd October 2010 02:36 AM

a best album??
now i'm worried

PV looks rather blah from that TV spot.

Beauty4123 30th October 2010 12:47 AM


lovely PV! simple but yuna looks gorgeous. :heart

KarenPang 30th October 2010 12:51 AM

OH so STUDIOSEVEN Recordings didn't go bankrupt after all lmao *points to the PV credits

the PV is not something I would watch again frankly :O but yeah after being MIA for so long , it's good to see Yuna back & she looks lovely as usual

is it bad that I didn't notice Mamotte Agetai will be released next Wed until much later on :innocent

Beauty4123 30th October 2010 12:56 AM

haha, i also noticed that! i also remember watching YUI's to mother PV on youtube awhile back, and STUDIOSEVEN was also listed. so i'm still wondering...what is up with that sub-label, sony? :roflmao

AyUta 30th October 2010 01:46 AM

Kiss me sounds good so far, and I'm liking the remix of Precious.

adantatu2 30th October 2010 02:10 AM

Yuna looks so beautiful!!
The song isn't growing in me yet

KarenPang 30th October 2010 03:55 AM

LOL yeah Lisa , truth be told , I was indeed surprised when I saw STUDIOSEVEN Recording's name on the PV :O

especially since you know now YUI & Kuroki Meisa's material are not released though them anymore but it's though gr8 records now

funny that Yuna's releases is still released under STUDIOSEVEN's name as so :O

Polyrhythm 30th October 2010 04:10 AM

Wow.....she's beautiful and talented....but sooooo underrated. Why?

wildconnetta 30th October 2010 10:25 AM

Mamotte Agetai is an ORIGINAL SONG!
Mamotte Agetai by Chihiro Onitsuka and Chara is a cover of Yumi Matsutoya's song.
I know this is original!
WOOOOOO!

kiseki89 30th October 2010 03:42 PM

Mamotte Agetai and Kiss me are nice...

the new remix for Precious is a little spoiling. Still prefer the original version

waterballoon 30th October 2010 03:57 PM

lovely song... the PV is cute too & she looks so gorgeous

ハート〜ブレーカ♥ 2nd November 2010 09:50 PM

Sony JUST ruined any hopes I had for an awesome remix of Precious. Trying to make it sound pop-ish? adding auto-tune to the "いのる two of us"? like.. seriously?

no leak from the single yet?

jeffycue 3rd November 2010 08:33 AM

yeah.. im stalking jpopsuki just for the leak. argh. where is it?!!

Beauty4123 3rd November 2010 08:04 PM

yuna is #31 for today. :(

Pieces_of_SEVEN 3rd November 2010 08:34 PM

wow, that sucks. no wonder the single hasn't leaked yet. lol

ハート〜ブレーカ♥ 3rd November 2010 11:02 PM

^ it's not as bad as #100 though. she still got.. somewhat decent, i mean, it must mean she at least got a few thousand sold.

i personally figured she would at least get somewhere within the top 20. like #25 or something, lol. but over #30, i didn't expect, but of course i'm not so surprised either when you think about it. it's still sad, though. not even a drama tie-in could help that much. :shakehead

adantatu2 4th November 2010 01:37 AM

I don't want a huge drop tomorrow, but the real life is sad =(

KarenPang 4th November 2010 01:58 AM

lol yeah that's the hard truth , Lisa . Even with a drama tie in , it's not helping her that much

she needs to get on TV to promote/sing but obviously or not , STUDIOSEVEN is not doing anything about this sounds very familiar ?

waterballoon 4th November 2010 04:22 AM

good luck Yuna, seriously :(

ハート〜ブレーカ♥ 5th November 2010 01:10 AM

Oh, my goodness... the single hasn't leaked yet. Yuna, I think at this point, if no one has even uploaded it yet, you're gonna need a lot more than just luck. She's fading from Sony, so maybe even if she did switch labels, she'd do better. That's my opinion.

Utena 5th November 2010 11:33 AM

received my copy. Ripping atm.

KarenPang 5th November 2010 01:37 PM

thanks for doing so Mylene !

I don't know , the other songs in the single are really B-side material I feel

I'm quite ok with Precious -Q;indivi Celebration Remix- but I kinda have a dislike towards ballads getting upbeat remixes :O

Kiss me is quite un-memorable D: , I need to listen to it again

waterballoon 5th November 2010 03:50 PM

Kiss me is SO BORING my God...

Queen Bee 5th November 2010 05:11 PM

Sadly I only like 守ってあげたい but no big deal; I'm sure her next single, if she has one, will be good.

I don't even see her label making any effort to promote her nowadays .__.

ハート〜ブレーカ♥ 6th November 2010 01:44 AM

I am starting think Mamotte Agetai isn't crap, it'll take forever for me to even get near to liking it though. Kiss me is horrible. I thought I might like it, if there were enough high notes. Sadly, not enough high notes for me to like it. And don't get me started on the remix. I've never heard Yuna auto-tuned, it sounds cool. But on my first J-Pop song? The one perfect without the need for some pointless crappy remix like this. :no
Sorry guys if I offend you or Yuna, but it's my opinion. No wonder it didn't leak for 2 days.

Beauty4123 6th November 2010 01:48 AM

just saw yuna in a proactive commercial on TV! they've played this commercial so many times so i've lost count, lol. everytime i see it i'm like "it's yuna!" :P

no it's ok because I myself feel the same way too :O I never really like Yuna doing upbeat no.s & Kiss me is a perfect eg as to why it's so :no

Utena 6th November 2010 02:22 AM

I didn't really like the single either, and I bought it XD
Well Mamotte Agetai is quite nice, just nothing mind blowing like she used to do some time ago. I even liked Let it go better as a single.
Kiss me isn't really appealing and Yuna's voice sounds annoying sometimes
I liked the first part of the remix, but then it just kept on going and going nowhere...

Still nice to have some new material from Yuna :)

ハート〜ブレーカ♥ 6th November 2010 02:49 AM

^ For me, Let it Go was definitely a lot better than this, and that's saying something, because the A-side song is one that I hate SO much, but I at least liked Happy Days. This whole single, for me, was a train wreck.

Beauty4123 6th November 2010 03:02 AM

mamotte agetai @ HAPPY MUSIC:

Pieces_of_SEVEN 6th November 2010 07:21 AM

Precious remix is my favorite track :/

Misato 6th November 2010 09:29 PM

Hm, i don´t like the song really.

And the clothes she were at Happy Music look really weird.
