wooow! new thread!!

i wonder when the title will be announced?

YAY! New thread! Go amigo ~

I can't wait to hear what her next single will be...as well as the Yasutaka album...I'm almost giddy with excitement!

I wanna see the covers. Ami never disapoints. :yes

^oh... yeah~ ONE and FREE FREE cover are :heart

i like it so much

^ dont forget DOLCE as her pretty cover

DOLCE was too pink and girly for me haha; ONE, on the other hand, is flawless.

well rio i'm sorry to say this...

i know DOLCe is a cute cover, well i always think like that since i havent seen it with my eyes, but one day, i was quite surprised that the local stores importing her OS version^^ its Cd+DCD version where she sit in the kalidoscop/mirror thing and her face is looking upward. i saw it, and i rushed into it, BUT when i saw it closely, OH MY GOD! she looks quite awful there~~~ :weep her lips and eyes looks weird... really weird... well just my own opionion

I only like the CD+DVD cover of Dolce, personally. The CD only looks a bit odd, and the CD+booklet verison looks horrible. >_<

I think this version is def the cutest!

http://tinyurl.com/66aez4

^^100% agreed, she's major kawaii (yet sexy!) there.

^that one is better! much better!

^^^^ I agree the CD only version is the best :heart I also liked the CD only cover of Around The World.

That is actually CD + PB, not DVD. And unfortunately that's the only one they had left in the store so I had to buy it :weep

I really like the DOLCE covers too. I like pink and girly. :P

Agreed, definitely. I love that cover. :D

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

i'm talking about this pic btw. hope you are right^^ its sooooo awful, i'm sorry to say that

this is absolutely KEWT..heheh
I love all version of DOLCE + Joins DVD

awful? i dont think so. you can see her sexy foot..hehe

^you must see it with your own eyes (i mean the CD), then decide...

^ ohh that's I have never seen...

i actually liked the DOLCE album scans. their pretty, cute, and pink, lol. :P but i want something more mature looking, like ONE, for her next album or single.

She looks really cute there! What are you smokin' :laugh

I loved the album scans and the PB onez... now some of dose were HAWT! The ones from this shoot were gorge:

http://i35.tinypic.com/t62o7n.jpg
http://i34.tinypic.com/243hkcj.jpg
http://i38.tinypic.com/2m6q3pu.jpg

the first picture is amazing, seriously. :love

I see a lot of stuff said about the DOLCE Album Covers but what do you all actually think about the Album?

^It's good but it has remnants of CONNETTA left over :weep

Oh ok. Because I'm really getting into Suzuki Ami now. Can't wait for this upcoming Yasutaka Nakata Album. Just wondering if any of her past works sounds anything like her FREE FREE and ONE Singles. I know she's supposedly been using a Vocoder all of her career.

^She used it on her second album, infinity 18 vol. 1, and returned with it for FREE FREE.

But anyway you might like Fantastic, and Delightful ;)

^she had used voconder in her sony album? wow i really didnt know about that!

Yeah she sounded a little "robotic" in some of the songs in her Sony days.

I looooove the vocoder! <3

Yepp, you can hear it distinctly (but not overused) in "BE TOGETHER."

:eek :eek :eek :eek :eek :eek :eek :eek :eek :eek :eek :eek :eek :eek :eek

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

She looks horrible. That pic of her is so creepy. Why did u post such a picture?! :weep

^HDU :gun :gun :gun

It is creepy when you keep staring at it. o____o'

Ami is beautiful 'n kawaii what are y'all talkin about?

^Omg, i thought those were dildos when I first looked at it. :laugh I thought Ami was the okay type until Dolce came out. She's in the pretty category now. :heart

^
^ well I hate when she makes her eyes like that, is like she wants to open them really big and look cute, yet she shrinks them somehow... the fantastic PV is full of that face it and it looks so forced to me.

hauahauahaa... :thud

I don't know what to say anymore.

That's Ami's signature face... she's been doing it since she was born! Especially here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOimtlZWl2M

^ maybe so, I still dun like it.

Well Amigo's gonna be Amigo no matta wat! She's poppin' and hip & cool and I love that face... I hope her next single's cover features it!:yes

omg is that from her photobook?

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7..._Suzuki002.jpg
:heart i want itttt

^ME TOO SHE IS SO KAWAII omfg... can she put out a new PB now?

^ hat?? she has realesed PB?? I dunno even
lalalala

OMG she looks cute...

I hope Don't stop the DISCO will be the b-side of new single of Ami.

What do you think ????

^haha... too much voncoder is making my brain explode too.

maybe double A side? that will be good, i want to hear more ami's melodic and voncondered soud of song. like ONE

YES, Double A-side please..

seriously, i'd LOVE a double a-side, since FREE FREE/SUPER MUSIC MAKER was :luv2

Don't stop the DISCO, + something like ONE = <3

ALL of Ami's singles are up for download at KMC, if anyone wants them :)

....she has a new single coming out? O=

The new single should be a AA and then she should have two more pvs in October to promote the album

I just wish we had a cover already!!!

Is there a link, I want them!

YAY. I haven't heard alot of those b-sides/remixes :luv2

http://jpmp3.com/viewtopic.php?p=459...30af6fa56de62c

You have to sign up with KMC tho.

Thankies...I really wanna get her discog!

I actually don't like ONE. It may just be one of those songs that will grow on me. Maybe not.

yaiiy.. thank you dad..
I'm downloading now.. i thought you mean new song is up to KMC

^so... what are the song that you really like from ami now?

edit: i'm referring to corikaru

Actually just "FREE FREE" for now and that's not a 100% thing. That's taking time to sink in as well. I like the verses more than anything else. I still have much more to catch up on though so I'm sure I'll find other stuff.

^ yaiiy.. that's good.. we'll like if you want try to hear her song..
my recommendation is fantastic, be together, delighful for upbeat song

Thanks for the recommendations people. Yeah, I haven't gotten around to them yet, but I'm keeping a tab on what's recommended and I'll definitely give them a listen.

^DELIGHTFUL is a good start for ami!

Don't forget "Fantastic" and "Around the World" :)

^and also like a love who mkae you cry all the time :P

^Yes, "Like a Love?" makes me cry so hard :weep

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpZ3xFPZVYc

^ Like a love? is one my all time fave PVS by her. It is sooo cute.

omg I never knew SA came with all these goodies.. (first press I assume?)
http://page8.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/h56663132
I want that note from Ami! and the obi looks cool.

^LOL "Dear everybody.." she's so kawaii!!!

^i dont like the cover... but the caed is so sweet^^

she looks great i love her smile it makes me smile :P

^i have the opposite from you, i always press next when it came to the part

ehh.. me too.. i like the last part.hehehhe

I like the last part of ONE and the very beginning of "A token of love." It's like a club.

I like it too, it gives you a chance to start dancing! Ami should go to the clubs and dance with her fans.

^She already does those great club tours... I loved the perfs from Yasutaka Nakata and her at that one club doing "FREE FREE" and "BE TOGETHER" :heart

^ hey i wonder if songs like FREE FREE and ONE will be sing live? the song is totally vocondered, and the sound when she sing FREE FREE in a-nation '07 and the cruise party, it sounds... like lyp synch? i'm not too sure abut it though

FREE FREE @ a-nation '07 was not lip synced most of the time.

I love A token of love. It came up on my ipod and I couldn't skip it and I listened to it all and fell in love.(I sometimes judge song my the first few seconds)

It's been on repeat since then lol.

OMG me too... the chorus is sooo kewt... "Make a happy" is my new favorite saying! :D

I personally prefer the remix than the original ver. of A token of love <3

^ hehehe It actually replaced ONE. If only I knew when the single first came out. lol But it's never too late to love a song.

I really like the remix but it is missing the really nice part... y'know, the after chorus, which is my favorite :heart

Yes I know. That's my favorite part.

Meh the remix rubbed me the wrong way.

MY GOD... why the title hasnt been announced yet..

^there's still one more month ...

be patient, i think it will announce soon or later

the PV is sooo cute!! the BG melody is exactly the same. but they release it first, i cant say too much.

edit: and look at what i found!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qrc5_...eature=related

FREE FREE by piano!!

^yuri is so pretty, just checked them in wiki.theppn

btw, i just watched ami's PV in sony era.

some songs are really freat like alone in my room, reality, thank you for everybody blablabl (not sure bout the name:P), but its quite irritating to hear ami is dragging all the notes in "our days". actually its a good song though

Yes, she is:yes
I need to listen to her older songs but I'm a little lazy those months.

Yes, old SONY Ami was so hip 'n kewl! I can't decide which is better, now Ami or then Ami..

Our days is one of my favorites, but I think if she sang the song now her voice wouldn't be so irritating because she has practiced a lot more, I think after she was blacklisted she took voice lessons...so it's stronger.

^have they no shame!!!?? :eviltongu
THANK YOU 4 EVERYDAY EVERYBODYYYYYYYYYYYYYY :heart Have you downloaded any of her early albums yet? Some album tracks are really really good like My wish -if you wanna be with me- from infinity eighteen vol. 1. Winter buzz is another good one from that album..:love

Guys someone posted a preview of Can't stop the DISCO, so is that the title?

^
yeah. I listened to this preview earlier... but i thought it was fake, hueheea

And I think that's the same background as ONE~~~!

Can someone tell me what year this love the island performance is from?
http://tv.mofile.com/8SY21ZJZ/

It looks like its from Around the World era o_o.

I've also never seen this performance
http://tv.mofile.com/LHGTN23N/

it's love the island, THANK YOU 4 EVERYDAY EVERYBODY and BE TOGETHER. Does anyone also know where thats from? and omg the crowd is wild in this one, it sounds like a H!P performance :P

^ wat o-o
weird they work for me.

Ahh ok try this.
http://tv.mofile.com/tags/love%20the...-1,audittime,0,
Thats the video website. type in 'love the island' in the search box and the videos I'm talking about are the first and third one.

Still not working lol. Maybe cuz I'm in the States?

where is the preview of can't stop the DISCO please?

I love all of Ami's Sony albums, maybe even more than her Avex ones, though I'm thinking her album with Yasutaka Nakata may just beat them all.

Speaking of her Sony albums, I have all of them in really bad quality, would anybody be able to direct me to a download for them in 320kbps? :)

^ http://jpmp3.com/viewtopic.php?t=434...C+%C5%AF%BA%C8
you need to sign up to download though. I'm not sure if they are 320kbps..I'm bad at telling the difference. The quality sounds great to me :yes


what the hell :headache :weep
ok this is the last option...
http://video.baidu.com/v?word=love+t...0&s=0&fbl=1024
The video with Ami wearing the blue hat/the one next to it are the videos I'm referring too. Uhh maybe you have to use firefox/internet explorer(idk which one you normally use) or it might be cause your on a mac? BOOO oh well if it doesn't work again we will just have to wait until it shows up on veoh/youtube. The performances aren't -THAT- great~ Just that the love the island performance looks pretty recent.

** oh and is the link working for anyone else?
