She will announce the new album in two days! :) https://www.facebook.com/KodaKumiOff...07811909263611
|
So exciting! Also Kuu looked amazing in the Feb fanclub video. I wonder if she was on the album shooting when she recorded it.
|
So Monday is the day!! YAY!
|
Every year I go skiing has a different period, each year we have an album announcement or previews from Kumi at this week...
I can't wait ! <3 |
Well, finally.
|
Could anyone translate the little text? I got from Google that it says something bout pain and rising again (?)
|
It's a nice little quote.
I'm still learning, but roughly translated: I seem to get stronger while crying I seem to get to know the rising meaning |
Someone commented a translation.
While you're crying you get stronger, don't you? You know the meaning of standing tall, don't you? #WALKOFMYLIFE #KodaKumi (2 days from the announcement) |
Somehow I completely forgot Love Technique is a song that exists??? But I had my iTunes on shuffle the other day and it came on and I was like oh my gaaaaaaah and have been rocking out to it ever since.
/coolstarrybra |
I can't wat to know more details about the album *__*
According to Koda kumi italian fan club Facebook page, the release date is March 18th |
^ my bday, sweet
|
Can't wait for the announcement tomorrow!
|
Too bad she didn't want to change the title. It's whatever. I hope the album is gonna be more like JAPONESQUE/Kingdom/second session and less like Bon Voyage. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoyed Bon Voyage but it's not her strongest album.

|
I don't care what the album is called. I just want more epic music to shake my ass to

|
I think Bon Voyage is one of her weakest albuns :/ had the worst singles imo and the album tracks are not really strong either
|
Still rocking to Bon Voyage tbh. The first three songs are my own personal heaven.

Winner Girls and LOL are hands down some of the best songs of 2014, probably on Top 7 (alongside MONEY IN MY BAG and DITR)

I made this for my fanpage (Obviosly about Kodess Kween) Quote:
|
Wait, so do we have the details on the album? When will it be released? I never saw the fan club video. :weep
|
Quote:
-- Kuu posted some more lyrics 踏み出しては立ち止まるだろう 生きる意味をみんな探すだろう #WALKOFMYLIFE #KodaKumi (発表まであと1日) 1 more day left guys! So excited! |

I think they're really ugly |

I finally joined the global fanclub. The Q&A section amuses me :laugh I'm glad I can still pick Japanese as language, though. The English translation is alright, but still has some hiccups.
And she looks beautiful in that video <3 |
Quote:
Anyway, I hope she'll announce the album around the same time of those facebook posts, so I can see all the information before go to bed. :) |
^ I'm also hoping for it :) Look likely it'll be during midday in Japan instead of midnight, which is MUCH better for me, cause then I'll be home, and not at work :P

@chocopockymaster: It's not hard to understand, but nobody is asking to get everything from the FC, every single day, leaking the whole content. It's just an image, a video, or whatever, that might be interesting or give hints of the new project.
This attitude is so "Team-Ayu Japan". An attitude of people only thinking about themselves. Everybody here is a fan, there is no need to make someone feel bad for asking something. :) -- I decided to do the database, it's gonna take a while to upload all the content. :) http://queen-of-live.tumblr.com/ |
I'm ready for a new Kumi album :) Something in the vein of Kingdom would be excellent.
Hopefully HOTEL won't be on it. |

|
Things I'm expecting from this year:
- Stunning PB for this album - LOTS of PVs - Kickass summer single with an unexpected song like FREAKY - DH7 with a DVD version worth buying it - Another cover album (in my utopical world it'd be an album of Western covers translated into Japanese, kinda the opposite of BENI's) - Another PB shot in another country - Mika Ninagawa x Kuu again - Something out of her pattern of releases that will amaze me (kinda like DITR) |
I only hope for high quality PVs. Not here for chroma key mess anymore after the awesome DITR PV. haha
@chocopockymaster: Sure, I'm not trying to change your opinion! :) And thanks. |

YES PLEASE :love |

omg so many new tracks! WALK OF MY LIFE sounds nice, like the type of song I'll have on repeat once we have it out in full. Will probably be getting the FC version since I want the live DVD, though it's not my favorite cover.
edit: wow, I really love the lyrics for WALK OF MY LIFE. :'))) :heart |
I will want the fc version have to figure out how to get it :(!

I love the covers, they are elegant and pretty. They don't really go with the name, but who cares she looks amazing. Funny tho first thing that came to my mind when I saw the cover was Byonce. lol CD+DVD cover is probably my favourite. Now we need previews! Song names are quite interesting and I'm surprised MONEY IN MY BAG is on the album. Nice.
|
WALK OF MY LIFE sounds awesome! :heart
Not digging the covers much,the promo was prettier, but so much new stuff, yay! |
AWESOME pics for covers, not really into the font but it could have been MUCH worse.
Can't listen to the preview of WALK OF MY LIFE )): And wtf at the tracklist, weirdest titles ever... And I hoped for more PVs... Well, I hope the songs are good, recording 13 new songs is almost a new album at once And also the title of the tour has been changed, album title added Quote:

|
BTW, Digipack and the photobooklet for DVD and BluRay Version are first press.
12 new songs, I'm so happy! :laugh |
Two demos are out already: SOMETIMES DREAMS COME TRUE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?featur...&v=GFccGfpQXOI) and PIECE IN THE PUZZLE? (https://soundcloud.com/phrased-diffe...-puzzle-maegan). Credits: truthteller@JPC
Phrased Differently you guys, YAY! Both are FIREEEEE. |
Everything is FIRE. The covers, the previews. Yaaaaas Kumi!! Sooooo tempted to sign up for the FC again this year to buy the FC version. Pretty sure it expired...
EDIT: Why, Kuu, did you add a song called "Dance" when we already have "Dance in the Rain"? It kinda annoys me. At least its not as bad as the over use of "one" in Grow Into One. |
not gonna listen to demos >_<
|
PIECE IN THE PUZZLE demo sounds awesome!
Really, I'm so happy. Everything very urban/R&B influenced. She's going back to her roots. :laugh |
Omg...all of the covers are simply fierce, stunning & gorgeous...all at the exact same time! I'm in love. :luv2 But, now...how must I choose one favorite cover, when I love them all equally?! :laugh If I had to choose just one favorite cover, it would totally be the CD only. :) Loving kuu's pose so much! :heart
And as for the album title, itself, "WALK OF MY LIFE" is such a lovely title & I think it's totally fitting for kuu's 15th anniversary. :D I also really like the tracklist! The titles that stand out the most, to me, are totally "Lippy", "Fake Tongue" & "PIECE IN THE PUZZLE". Very creative song titles, for sure! :P I can't wait to hear them & all the other songs, as well. :) Can't wait to watch the "Like It" & "WALK OF MY LIFE" PVs, too! I'm so excited for this album!!! :) |
Lippy's Demo

God looooooord, can we get this album already? Awesome song too!
House Party https://soundcloud.com/phrased-diffe...-anquetil-will |
Damn Kumi Kehova is on fire on the Blu Ray cover! Waiting for her spring awakening!
|
Not liking any of the previews. Bitch knows how to shoot an album cover this time around though, DAMN! FC addition is absolutely stunning.
|
FC Goodies
Koda Gumi/playroom: ball pen Koda Gumi: mirror If you buy one of the sets with different versions over the FC shop, you get mirror or ball pen in set with a B2 poster with a message. |
Fire kinda died with Lippy and House Party. Lippy is okay, but I'm not feeling that House Party. Maybe her versions will redeem them, but I dunno.
|
i still don't like any previews -*-
hopefully Loaded-Like song will appear soon |
I don't really like the Fanclub cover sadly :/
But wow, so many new songs, and the full concert on DVD! So nice, I wish they used the cd+dvd cover for the FC version but oh well :p Is there someone who's gonna do a group order this time? I would be interested. Or if there's someone who's willing to help me, I might offer a nice deal that includes not using Tenso or any other paid middleman services. (If your subscription is with the Japanese Fanclub, not too sure about the Global one) |
Finally! So many new songs and WALK OF MY LIFE sounds so lovely!
But wow those covers... i actually hate them and i don't think I've ever hated kumi covers before. A real let down for me, i expected a lot more for her 15th anniversary album |
LOVE.iT!
the Covers, the tracklist mostly, the description of the album sound! #instantyasss can't wait to go with Lee^Chan & Corvina to the last concert in summer! :heart Quote:
then i was thinking... Mercedes Bens sponsored tour > Mercedes Song> Driving Hit's 7 and maybe a Promotion video With Mercedes Cars lol |
The covers are very classy, i like some of the previews, not very fond of WALK OF MY LIFE. Plus the english accent in it makes me cringe. Just sing it in japanese girl.
|
The only bad thing about this album is that I feel it's going to be like TRICK: a lot of potential with good songs but only few PVs.
The tracklist is kinda crazy, but Kuu always had songs with titles that are kinda weird (This is not a love song / life / BUT / Lick me) so I don't mind. The Introduction title probably will change though. |
Sometimes dreams come true sounds nice!
PIECE IN THE PUZZLE isnt too bad too Lippy and House Party are abit..well alright I hope for a really varied and powerful album. the demos mostly are fun tracks, although quite westernized..I hope more really beautiful ballads like back in Black Cherry days hahah (NEEDS ANOTHER YUME NO UTA)..Walk of my life sounds really promising for me |
Just noticed there are no feats announced for this album :/ I hope there are some and they'll add them later
|
The description of the album says, it will have an aggressive sound.
And genres mentioned are "ballads, Pop, Hip Hop/R&B and more". Though WALK OF MY LIFE is also called a ballad there and imo it sounds much more midtempo or even upbeat. Considering Dance In The Rain is described as a ballad as well, I'm not too sure if there will be a classic ballad on the album. |
Did they specify the size of the PB already? I hope it won't be like JAPONESQUE, that was TOO big... Hopefully it'll have the same as Color the Cover size
|
No, not yet.
But both DVD and Blu-Ray version covers are lengthy. It really depens on the size of the photobooklet. |
Loving everything <3 the covers are stunning and she looks gorgeous!
I'm not listening to these demos just yet, I prefer to wait and be surprised. Sad there's only 5 PVs but oh well, I guess it was to be expected. |
!!!!!
I'm so excited for this! So many new tracks! Kuu looks beautiful on the album covers, although to me it looks like she's squinting a bit in some of the shots. The FC edition is definitely superior in terms of DVD content. If I were a member, I'd get that version, but I think I'll just be getting the CD-Only for now. I wish there were more PVs! :weep |
The XXXXXL horrible jacket and this hairstyle what the fuck? D:
By the way, why they can't choose better photos of all off this photoshoot? MY GOD! |
I really like the CD only Cover for this release <3
as far as the songs go.. WALK OF MY LIFE is the only thing I like so far and the other previews you guys posted don't really do it for me yet. But I'm just gonna wait and see |
Wow, the covers look amazing!
My favourite is the CD+LIVE DVD FC Version. She looks totally beautiful in the cover. :love. And so many new songs, yes! |
Oh god House Party is terrible. It sounds like something from the 90s. It features that crap that I never wanted to hear again like "the roof is on fire" and "everybody say woah" "woah". It also sounds like that crappy family friendly wedding mix music that they play at the reception that no one would willingly listen to on their own.
Lippy (whatever that means) is whatever, the Jessie J song is really good, and Piece in the Puzzle is also whatever. |
Damn the demos are AWFUL. I can't believe anyone would actually buy those songs. :no Lippy is just noise, House Party is tacky as hell, PIECE IN THE PUZZLE isn't heinous but it's not really interesting either. And that tacky Jessie J demo. God no. I'm so scared for this album now :no
The covers are awesome at least... But covers don't make up for songs that sound like they walked out of 2004. :\ |
There are still 8 other new songs to look forward to. ;)
Lippy is awful, but apart from that I really like those demos. |
^ This. Plus, these are demos, I remember that the So Nice demo was TERRIBLE and was very different from the final song (which got even better at JAPONESQUE Tour)
|
I think the demos are great, loved all of them.
You guys have to keep in mind that the demos are LQ, and it's far away from being done. The demos of Lollipop, Run For Your Life and So Nice are unfinished (obviously), and the final songs are awesome. I'm used to listen to demos, so I can see the potential of the song, and for my taste, those songs are fire. :) |
I'm not gonna listen to the demos. They create a false expectation of what the final cut will be like, whether good or bad. I wanna go into WALK OF MY LIFE with a positive attitude. It is her 15th anniversary, after all. :)
|
cant stop listening to the walk of my life preview, its really giving me life.
i dont care for demos since hers are always better becuse of her voice etc; but i honestly liked what ive heard so far not a fan of the covers, her makeup is terrible its the first time Im not interested in the image/concept (pvs, photoshoot) and more in the music itself, looks like this time she focused more in the music than anything else. |
Just pre-ordered the CD + Blu-ray version! I look forward to seeing the credits for the songs - I hope we have a good mix of Western demos and Japanese songs. I wouldn't mind another song in the vein of Love Technique!
A little disappointed that there's only 5 PVs but I think I'm still being a bit greedy after Japonesque. We have been pretty spoiled by Kumi in the past. I can't wait to watch the Dance In The Rain PV! The FC edition looks amazing! I'm just currently listening to Best ~First Things~ & feeling all nostalgic! Think I got to listen to Grow Into One soon! |
omg i love Walk of my Life. Stunning! The rest of the the demos don't really do much for me. The covers are so sleek, and the typography is great too! They are simple as hell but it works.
|
Really only like the CD-DVD cover.
The FC version looks like someone pulled her neck up and then inserted some creepy Zombie hand. idk if I'll listen to the demos. |
Just ordered the bluray no gotta find out how to get the fanclub one! O.o
|
The covers look great! Not crazy about the songs we've heard so far, but I'm not really bothering with the demos either.
Why does the fanclub live not come on a blu-ray? its all going to be smushed onto a dvd? that could kill some of the quality of it! |
I just ordered both CD+DVD editions :heart ~
|
None of the soundcloud links work now. Did anyone manage to download the demos?
|
Looks like all demos were deleted then... Avex was kinda fast this time lol
Pre-ordered both CD+BR and CD+Live DVD versions. And this made me realize how much I miss those CD+2DVD versions she used to release, it was much simpler and cheaper to get all contents /: |
Dead.
I have a feeling I'm really going to love this album. So many new songs, how it should be done frankly, so much new ground to explore. How it's packaged, all the finer details, are intriguing me too. Anyone going to initiate a FC order? I know I want the CD+Blu-Ray and the CD+Live DVD versions, haha. |
I have only listened about 15 seconds of the demos and only House Party felt a bit boring but maybe it's because Kuu wasn't singing it. I'm going to wait for the album to be released before I say anything else. :)
|
I'm excited for this album!
I don't wanna hear the demos (although I heard the Jessie J one and I thought its boring) |
Quote:
I really miss these versions. Wouldn't mind a CD+bluray+live dvd version but obviously, they probably sell more to the FC by having more versions and splitting the live DVD bonus to its own edition since the general public would be less engaged to buy CD+2DVD, so they rely on the FC. |
Fanclub versions = get! I'm really looking forward to seeing the concert. :)
|
That track list is too good! Really hoping for a few skanky club bangers!
Also, the walk of my life preview sounds SPECTACULAR. I can't remember the last time I was that into a kumi song. Seriously...a few albums ago. |
Love love love the covers :heart My favorite is the CD+DVD.
EDIT: Quote:
|
If those were previews I'd listen to them, but with demos it's tricky, little change in arrangement + Kuu's awesome vocal and the song may turn 180', so I didn't listen but I'm still waiting impatiently :)
|
Quote:
I'm having high hopes for House Party, it's my favorite! The beginning reminds me so much of COME WITH ME music video, they'll probably cut that, but still. The instrumental is F-I-R-E. <3 |
^Thanks a lot, I'll wait for your link !!
I saved only the links to listen to them when I get home, but now they're dead x_x |
When I saw the covers, immediately thought of the cover to Jessie J's latest album.
http://i789.photobucket.com/albums/y...eet_Talker.jpg Jessie wrote (or co-wrote) VIP, and remember seeing them post a photo of them together late last year. Guessing she's a fan of Jessie and took a little inspiration. |
Piece in the Puzzle & Lippy
