[Koda Kumi] The 188th Thread - NEW DOUBLE ALBUM ► W FACE inside/outside

[Isicio]

I think the sound and lyrics melody have some parts with western music style, I mean the melody vocals of JPOP are weird, and the western ones are more simples and basics. I'm very surprised with Outside songs, is like a new style on her music never hearded before.

The bad thing is her voice, Is like a rough voice, she don't have the same voice.

Omg she looks so gorgeous here

[AyuHamasaki01]

^She really does. Her make up is really beautiful too!

Outside is definitely something different from her, I feel like the production this time is better than WOML. She sounds super sexy in some songs and the instrumental goes well with it.

My favorites are Ultraviolet, Bassline, Bangerang, Wicked Girls and Cupcake (I don't get all the hate Cupcake is getting, I just can't). Heartless is my new Candle Light, so powerful yet emotional, it adds something special to the dance-y atmosphere of the album.

Inside is typical Kuu but I appreciate the fact that this record sounds more mature, ''quiet'' and personal compared to what she used to offer in this style. Definitely pleasant to listen of course if you are in the mood for it.

My favorites are Bridget Song, Yorokobi no kakera, Stand by you, On my way and My fun. Stand by you reminds me of one of my fave K-drama theme songs - Stairway to Heaven https://youtu.be/3LtnRRxpUxc :')

Just watched the blu-ray and it's pretty bad, Bassline random out-of-place choreography, Insane is a tour background video, Promise you is pretty, but it's just that scene from the teaser, the only one that is "good" is Wicked Girls because of the good choreography and she looks good. It's as worth it as JAPONESQUE's second DVD.

I hope we get new singles (real proper singles) for the next era so we can have some proper PVs. We'll get 2 new PVs for the album again but at least they'll be watchable...

I agree that Wicked Girls is the best PV by far.

I hope they release the taiwan/OS versions soon, I'm too poor to buy the Japanese press at the moment.

thanks again thats cool

I watched all the PVs (thx for uploading!) and I gotta say, i think the simplicity is on purpose to focus ion her (like the whole concepts implies) and it worked really really well for Basseline and Insane. For the other, they were okay too. What bothers me were Ultraviolet was really messy, in BS her hair looks so fake and in wicked Girls the synch was of.

But overall, they did not looks cheap by any means and who thinks that has clearly never seen a cheap video. The might not be high budget either but all of then were executed very well, especially the two I named.

Bon Voyage 46,091
WOML 39,346

W FACE is going to have similar first week sales.

[kaled kalil]

I would say that they are already on 37k, not too far from the 39k of WALK OF MY LIFE ,and it's quite clear that people are getting both albums together since the numbers are that close. It might outsell WOML's first week.

With a tour as long as we're getting this time, I think the album will have longevity on the charts, maybe will end up around 45k.
