I really like the covers for both U ~BEST of BEST~ & U ~BEST MUSIC VIDEOS~ but I'm really annoyed at the tracklist for U ~BEST of BEST~

1 thing I'm really turned off is when I see a best album that the tracklist's messy & since I have both his albums , upon seeing some of the album tracks that're included from both I AM ME & 2U , meh

And omg 2 different songs in each edition , that's super sly if not mean & I never seen that happening in a best album before ... until now o_o

I think I rather purchase the 6 new songs from iTunes as it will be much cheaper & to think I thought of buying the 2CDs B + the photobook but probably not now anymore >_<

Guess I just stick with buying the U ~BEST MUSIC VIDEOS~ DVD :3

[NintendoHTF1242]

I FREAKING HATE HIS COMPANY! Two different songs for ALL three different versions. WHY!?!! WHYYHHYHY

[KarenPang]

I never seen a best album being marketed in this state it's so very shrewd >_>

So much for wanting to buy U ~BEST of BEST~ :x & buying all 3 editions just to get 6 new songs doesn't seem very worth it to me & I already dislike the way the tracklist's like for each disc too

Looks like I will only get U ~BEST MUSIC VIDEOS~ when I'm in Japan in the last week of 2012 :3

Thought I was going to find the PV boring but I like the way they used the Black & White concept , just like what it happened for Namie's YEAH-OH

I prefer Black Matsushita over White just because xD

[KarenPang]

U ~BEST of BEST~ peak position - #37 with 4,324 copies sold in the 1st week

ouch

[KarenPang]

Just the way you are (2 CDs + DVD track)

In disc 1 of U ~BEST of BEST~ (U Love Ballad Disc)

[setsuka]

he has his own ameblo blog now / http://ameblo.jp/matsushitayuya/

I love when artist use this blog service instead of their own site or a FC blog

~

[KarenPang]

^ thanks for that , I will edit in the 1st post

I managed to download all the 6 new songs from U ~BEST of BEST~ last night & Ordinary Love is really awesome & such a sweet ballad

Just the way you are is not bad but I'm not feeling that much towards No rain , No rainbow (sounds like a poor cousin of Beautiful Girl) & Crazy Funky Holiday in both tracks being quite cheesy sounding D:

At least now I don't need to buy all 3 editions of U ~BEST of BEST~ in order to listen to the new material on his 1st best album lmao

Sort of agreed

Wait...does he have his own FC as well? I'm kind of wondering...

[KarenPang]

I received my copy of U ~BEST of BEST~ (2CDs + 44 page photobook limited edition) today that my friend bought for me <3

I did scans of the whole best album but I'm only going to share the scans from the CD sleeves , the long OBI & the back

Long OBI + back

Spoiler:

4 pics from the CD sleeves

Spoiler:

The last photo is my fave >__< & in a way kinda pathetic there were so little pics of him in the CD sleeves D: , unlike what the 44 page photobook had to offer -_-

Also it surprises me that the new songs Ordinary Love & Crazy Funky Holiday are not composed by Jin Nakamura :O Then again both don't sound like something Jin Nakamura might compose hmm

Ah Matsushita is finally back with something new <3

He will release his new song SWEET LOVE digitally via iTunes on 31st July



I never thought he will release something new after he released U ~BEST of BEST~ last Dec D: but I think the song sounds great

Very summery although my fave summer inspired song from him is still 4 Seasons

[KarenPang]

Yuya Matsushita "Graduates" from Sony Epic and Starts His Own Label + New Album at the End of August

Hello,Yuuya here.

[SWEET LOVE] is finally out on 31/7. (It seems that it is out on iTunes at 0:00!)

I have already revealed this during my tour in January of this year. The single also contains [What are we?] that was composed and written by me, therefore please listen to it!

Because the worldly view of tracks and the songs are also great, the remix of SWEET LOVE is totally different from that of the original. Everyone please check it out as it is really cool!Also, this is an announcement to everyone.

I have graduated from Epic Records which had taken great care of me since my debut and launched my own label [Japanese Dream Records].
From now on I will deliver my music from here. (It will be through tunecore JAPAN).

Epic Records gave a chance to a 17 year-old me who could not do anything at all and gave me countless experience, to all the respected staff, my seniors (artistes) who have taken care of me, I am really, really grateful to all of you. For these five years, there are also many staff members that I have gotten along very well with and who have also came to my tours and events until now, to these staff from all places, I also express my gratitude.

After my contract expired last year at the end of the year, I was not able to release music immediately upon expiration. I am now finally able to release my new song.As I will be steadily creating works that my fans will love, please continue to support me! Also to all who have taken great care of me, I will give my best for my music and lives that I can repay all of you!

This is another piece of information for all my fans who have been waiting for the release.I WILL BE RELEASING A NEW ALBUM [musicoverdose] on 8/28. I was recording today and there are lots of great stuff that was done—-!
I will put in all my might to create songs to die for!

Please look forward to it~
As a strong blast to my album I will have a nationwide tour from 9/4, therefore everyone please check it out!

That makes sense on why he released his 1st best album so quickly & wasn't surprised Epic Records dropped him as his sales weren't really good despite so much promo Epic Records gave him

Ah well at least now he's independent & free + new album end of the month omg *_*
