Mint's good, but not her best, in my opinion...

[Calico]

Yeah I thought her new single was really...lacking. Esp. after BGSBGC. Oh well, hopefully her next one is better.

[stickyrice]

I really liked Mint. It's not as good as her past works but it's not the worst. yellow carpet is better imo.

[Miku]

Mint is a great single ^^

[Yarumi]

mint is an okay single... does anyone know if "I will survive" was on any of her albums/singles? I looked on her main website and all I can find is that she sung it in the RINA AIUCHI LIVE TOUR 2002 "POWER OF WORDS" but the version I have doesn't sound like a LIVE rip... anyone know this?

she sang "I will survive" in some GIZA artists compilation album I can't really remember the name now...or at least I think so...

the PARTY TIME PARTY UP Covers are awesome!! specifically the CD+DVD one

^ Exactly my thoughts too, but they went a bit heavy on the lens flare.

[AyuGAME]

with that hair, she looks so old...but i love the effect

[Mirai Noah]

I like the covers!

"Nemurenu Yoru ni" is really sweet! It has a nice Christmas-y feeling. But the PV's confusing, she's just singing there, all sad then there's a scene with this guy running with a bag and he get's knocked down by a car, and a box falls on the floor, tehn we go back to Rina's room and she starts crying? Maybe whatever was in that box was her Christmas present or something?

[Kaiouforever]

I prefer the nemurenu yoru ni covers but I LOVE both sets! I can't wait to see how this single does...4 versions are definitely a lot!

I remember having that song. It was just so funny because her Engrish was so bad. Ahahaha.

[Kaiouforever]

I made an official discography page for Rina on wikipedia. She had all her singles/albums listed on the main page, but it was so unsightly that I made a proper separate page. Feel free to check it out. (Most of the sales figures I got from the Japanese wiki on her)

[Kaiouforever]

[Larisa-chan]

Ahahaha I totally forgot this thread existed...

Anyways, for anyone who hasn't seen yet:

PV for PARTY TIME PARTY UP
http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3n...party-up_music
(I like the beat of this song.. definitely a dance song, but just a shade of her earlier techno-dance songs)

PV for Nemurenu Yoru Ni
http://www.veoh.com/videos/v1626897K...7385142&rank=7
(Zzzzz...)

Man, in my opinion, her singles have been mediocre to less than mediocre lately. The only recent singles I liked were Bara ga Saku, Bara ga Chiru and Glorious...

"PARTY TIME PARTY UP" is disappointing. :[

[Huaka]

Wow, both of those songs sucked. I have lost hope in Aiuchi Rina ever making good fun dance-y songs like those in her first album and A.I.R. So dissapointed. I don't think I'll bother listening to her songs anymore.

[Kaiouforever]

I really liked PARTY TIME PARTY UP, definitely a fun song! And I also liked Nemurenu yo ni, it's a really sweet song. =] Too bad no one else seems to like it, but it definitely pleased me! I hope it sells well for Rina.
