I'm liking Loser ! a bit more than Sweet Rishi Boy at the mo

YAY! It's finally here! I love sweet rishi boy! I'm loving the thread title btw Karen! :)

thanks Shadae & yes I like the new thread title too :D

it's perfect since Brave vibration was just released 2 days ago & I thought , why not ?

sweet rishi boyis so addicting!

i didnt realize anna has a pair of huge eyes too @_@

^ I know! I love that song!!!

This new single is soooo good I love every song. Does "Loser!" remind anyone else of "u"?

lmao i just saw this

you meanie :weep :P

Brave Vibration, live @ Music Station.

^ that poster comes with the CD+DVD version or did you bought it separatedly?

Another question :P does anybody know what it is? FLEUR by Anna Tsuchiya...

CD - http://www.neowing.co.jp/track_for_c...KEY=CTCR-40292

CD + DVD - http://www.neowing.co.jp/track_for_c...KEY=CTCR-40291

yeah Loser ! subtly reminded me of u to a certain extent

I think it's the lyrics ?

1st question - it comes with the CD + DVD - http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=CTCR-40291

you wouldn't get it if you order the CD only though . Instead of the poster , you will get an Anna Tsuchiya x Mika Ninagawa 16-page photo booklet - http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=CTCR-40292

2nd question - not sure , I think it's an unofficial photobook ? :shrug

as for the Taiwan press of Brave vibration which will be out next Fri , avex Taiwan's only making it for the CD + DVD

^ i got a poster with both editions from Tower Records in Shibuya and I still go the photobook with the cd only version, haha.

But I hate posters--I can't hang them up here. haha. I have so many just rolled up -__-

And I really like sweet rishi boy! this single is really good :D

omg! wtf with that weave? XD she looks weird, but the song is totally amazing!

thx for the pics, lacus! the single is pretty!

oh sorry for that because CDJapan kinda played tricks on me :dead2

but with regs to the photobook , yes you only will get it if you buy the CD only & I know , I have too many posters in my room T_T

ya Genie

you look - http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=CTCR-40292

Did Anna gain some weight?
Looks that way in the live @ Music Station.

Brave Vibration CD+DVD looks awesome.
Are there any scans of the photobook?

her live performances are great vocally, but her dance moves turn me off and make me laugh a little >_< hahaa

frankly I'm glad that Anna looked better with some weight on just like KAT-TUN's Kame .

Poor thing , I see them being quite thin in that they probably can get blown away should a gust of wind blew by :dead2 but thankfully both of them looked better now with some weight that they have gained :yes & I haven't seen scans of the Brave vibration photobook yet

x->9->11->13->12

http://www.oricon.co.jp/rank/js/d/more/2/

I think it can get at most top15 overall ? at least it's 1 of her more better performed singles in recent times

^ same here karen! they looked too skiny before! Anna;s face expression was so cute at the end of the performace! It looks like the appearance helpped her sales a bit!

yeah & Kame looked terrible/horrible if you found pics of him 4 years ago , he looked so old back then :dead2 but he looks amazing now as time goes by xD xD

maybe & it's quite a known fact that usually after an artiste performed on MUSIC STATION , their sales might increase during the weekend so hopefully this will be true for Anna

I don't know if it's true on whether did Anna wrote Forever for her late ex husband

but I will not be surprised if it's true because judging from the lyrics , it's kinda obvious in a way or 2

Man she looks so hot on the cover!! But the live @ MS... not so much lol!

Or it could be for one of her friends who she had when she was modeling! She died when she was only 17, because she got drunk , fell asleep at a park,and got hypothermia. She was also a model too! she and anna used to live together.

EDIT! Nevermnd! I saw it say him in the lyrics lol oops!

Those are the most heartfelt and touching lyrics I've read in a long time. I love Anna.

it's hard to believe that Anna wrote Forever

I mean , Eng's not her 1st language & for her to write/sing most of her material in Eng , it's not easy at all

& surprisingly , in real life , she doesn't speak it fluently but when you hear her material on a CD , it's a different thing altogether

Have you guys seen the interview she did with Talk Asia? She explains there why she uses English so much, despite "not being able to speak English" (<-- she says so.)

I had only seen one interview before this one, it was for Shimotsuma Monogatari, and it was... like very strange to see her talk so personal, but very interesting.

She should learn it! I think it would be easy for her. I also think that she has great potential to make it here in the U.s! She and Olivia!

but if she pronounces it so well in her songs, how can she not know the language? :shrug

yes I did

I even have the whole interview that I put inside my mp3player :laugh

nobody knows Lisa but at least her Eng command/dictation when comes to her material , I can say it's much better than other jpop artistes who tried to sing in Eng

at least I can understand her although from time to time , I have to go & look at the lyrics

^ MAybe her dad has something to do with it... I mean he was born and raised in America...

I heard Russian before but then somewhere else Polish. :thud

I did thought that her dad's Russian but nope , he's Polish

she herself said so during the CNN TalkAsia interview :yes

it's sould out now :( anyway I'm out of money now, just ordered ravex album

Picked up the CD+DVD of the single at HMV yesterday! OMG all the songs are sooooo good! Sweet Rishi Boy <3

YAY for BREAKERZ on the sideline xD xD

^ lol that's what i thought when i saw the list XD

i was walking on the streets today, and there was this big poster of anna for annessa with the orange outfit, and i heard some guy behind me saying "wow, look how flat she is" XD

lol i know, but compared to the other huge posters on building, sadly she can't compare with them @_@

though i do love that pic <3<3<3 feel like she's everywhere in malls~

haha XD no, i'm in taiwan :D japanese makeup are sold here too ;)

nope , Jasmine dear's residing in Taiwan at the mo . She will go back to Texas , US after her summer break's finished

& talking about Anna being everywhere , the new batch of Casio photos which she's a spokesperson for the watch company , I have been seeing them at bus stops & in leading shopping centres which's great :friends

Wow xD Makes me wonder what the other billboards look like. Anna doesn't have much meat to her, so, woah.

lol i didn't take pictures of other billboards...but some woman in a black dress, low cut, selling diamonds

and...some guy holding a rope with an unbuttoned shirt...idk what he was selling @_@

:roflmao

omg at the last line xD

I should have taken photos of Anna when she was promoting Casio as there were bus stop posters of her plastered a while back ago & ick they're gone now

sad T_T

lol XD maybe perfume...because he's manly :roflmao

aww too bad! there's like an anna casio ad in mostly all my recent magazines that i've brought or downloaded

so what other endorsements does anna have? besides casio and annessa?

erm she also endorsed Asahi beer last year

GINGER which feats MONKEY MAJIK on vocals (more so on Chorus) is found as track #5 in her NUDY SHOW ! album was used to promote Asashi's Ginger Draft beer

you can see a can of the beer in the beginning of the GINGER PV which Anna's laying on a couch while she's holding it & it's the only album track in NUDY SHOW ! to get a PV

haha yeah! i just so happened to watch that PV the other day on j/kpop charts on mtv taiwan~

every time i listen to NUDY SHOW, i can't ever figure out if it's english or japanese, haha even with the lyrics, i get lost XD

yeah I get that too sometimes

I know in strip me ? , only 3 songs on the album have Japanese lyrics attached to it which're rose , SLAP THAT NAUGHTY BODY & Jane

avex Taiwan only translated the lyrics for these 3 songs in strip me ? but for NUDY SHOW ! , they did it for the whole album

be it whether a song's in full english or as like we Singaporeans said , rojak with japanese & eng together

avex Taiwan started to do it from rose onwards - http://www.avex.com.tw/4th/artist/ar...585989&anamec=

but from Crazy World onwards , they only have been making the CD + DVD of her singles

guess they're not selling that well as what they expected to be , oh well

it beats scrapping & NOT producing her singles anymore , just like poor GIRL NEXT DOOR

^ They did that for GIRLS NEXT DOOR! Why? I thought they did good rank wise?

maybe they're selling below than what avex Taiwan expected ? :shrug

because I know avex taiwan have been producing OS presses (just the CD + DVD's) of GND's singles from their debut single onwards but from Seeds of dream , they have stopped doing so

you see - http://www.avex.com.tw/4th/artist/ar...372776&anamec=

poor thing I say , I hope Anna will not suffer the same fate as GND :(

Brave vibration debuted at #13 overall in the weekly chart with 1st week sales of 5,726 copies

http://www.oricon.co.jp/rank/js/w/more/2/

well done Anna :yes

CDJapan's having its summer sales & the following items of Anna are being sold at a discount or 2

Virgin Cat (30% off)

http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=CTCR-40279

cocoon CD + DVD (30% off)

http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=CTCR-40265

OOHH!! I wanna get Cocoon! I need to hurry up and find a summer job before school starts lol!

^ I know! That's what I thought too, but I think this is her best single ranking wise...

People were talking about how they saw her on billboards. She also appeared on music station. Which IMO helped her out a bit. I wish she could of at least get 10,000 copies lol maybe I'm just being greedy. :P

Yeah! If I was rich I would buy at least 20,000! lol I don't know what I would do with them,but at least I would'nt have to worry about losing one! :P

yup Shadae since her 5th single LUCY

Brave vibration was used for promo in the new Shiseido ANESSA ad so that helped sales somewhat or another

& the fact that she was on MUSIC STATION , it somewhat helped her too

most of Anna's singles received promo in 1 way or another I think

it depends on how the style of the single's & also whether or not the public likes it

like for Virgin Cat , it was used to promote the Japan release of The L Word but then it flopped quite bad & it doesn't help that with a title like Virgin Cat it's a bit :dead2

somemore it was only limited in 1 edition like Change your life & SLAP THAT NAUGHTY BODY / MY FATE

compared to Virgin Cat & Brave vibration , it's definitely better in every single aspect

in a way Virgin Cat's kinda like a joke song & at least for Brave vibration , Anna released it in a perfect timing in Japan ie. during summer

Some more promotion, Anna @ Music Fighter. Imo, her outfit is a lot better than MS's, right? XD

haha yeah totally

she looked more erm normal & less hippy in Music Fighter's performance that she did of Brave vibration :laugh

:P I was wishing that she would do that "Uhh!!" expression after the music paused in the first couple of seconds. I thought it was so funny. She then quickly changed into a smile it was so cute!! <-- I'm talking about the MS performance.

Not many people do :laugh
The only good thing to come from that single was Imitation night :yes

ditto on that :yes

easily 1 of her best B-sides around

I looove Brave vibration! :luv2 I think I made a Anna breakthrough! :D

oh does this mean you will check out the rest of Anna's material ? you definitely should , you wouldn't regret at all

^Yep! :D I just became an Anna fan! =D

YAY that's great :D

if you need recommendations & etc , just let me know about it :yes

I prefer Virgin cat =)

^ I think I do too! I find myself listening to virgin cat more... I think it's so catchy. I love when she goes, "lets get the rat,lets get the rat,lets get the rat..." lol

:roflmao

it's Let's get the rat , Shadae , not Let's catch the rat

OMG! That's you're second time correcting me lol! what would I do without you! lol Thanks Karen!

^ LOL! It was early in the morning ok! And I agree she does look better in that performace, her dance moves are also bearable lol!

^ :rofl!! We can always say that she's just a little wild when it comes to her smexy lyrics lol! If you wanna turn someone on, just sing one of anna's songs and you're in! :P
