I think Dejavu is better than UNIVERSE and TRICK, actually.

+1

While I love TRICK and adore UNIVERSE, this album blows those two (plus Black Cherry) out of the water.

I don't know if I like it as much as Kingdom, but I haven't loved as many songs on an album since K!

secret is still my favorite

edit: The dejavu booklet is so cute! I can't wait to get mine.

I love it live too.. but it's bc the volume of the chorus is lower and she sings over it, it really makes a difference. if only the real song was that way.

on the subject of TRICK and UNIVERSE, I only saved a couple songs from each album (TABOO, Driving, This is not a love song, No way, You're so beautiful) and deleted the rest of that crap. they're unfortunately some of the worst J-pop albums I've listened to. I was extremely disappointed in Kuu with those albums and hope she never lowers herself to that quality again. she's so much better than that, and Eternity + Dejavu is proof.

[Kingdom]

TRICK has some amazing tracks (JUST THE WAY YOU ARE, show girl, Driving, Moon Crying, Ai no Kotoba) while Universe had a few too (You're so beautiful, No way, Stay, Comes Up, Physical thing)

tbh, I think they are both stronger albums than Black Cherry. I don't get the love for that album... it was basically made of singles and a few lackluster album tracks. I grew so bored of it too fast.

edit:: Who else is in love with Passing by? I can't stop listening.

[love in music]

Black Cherry wasn't perfect, but damn it had so many amazing songs and that release was so exciting omg. I have so many good memories with that album
Passing by has been stuck in my head all day.. her voice is heavenly in it. seriously.. her vocals in the ballads on this album are like, the most beautiful vocals from her ever imo.

[ren'ai]

^^ moi <3 the ballads on this album are just... Wonderful? Amazing? Oh my goodness? <3

Okay, Passing by, Aitakute, Suki de, Anata dake ga... omg

I think Passing by is my favorite, followed by Suki de and Okay.

[ren'ai]

^ i cant pick a favourite.. In order of most eargasmic love would be passing by, anata dake ga, aitakute, okay then suki de

Edit: i'm trying to wait for my copy before i watch the pvs >_<

[AyUmIXx]

have listened to Dejavu..
i feel like this is like a ballad album.. so many slow songs instead of upbeats/rnb/fast tracks.. but i love it. it's perfect for me =))
most of her ballads on the album are nice!

Love the nail max shot!

[SURREAL__RAINBOW]

thanks!

[love in music]

she looks SO gorgeous, elegant, classy, etc in the nail max pics. I can't wait for scans and I really hope someone will make them textless. pics that flawless should not be surrounded by such ugly Japanese letters!

[GREENsora]

Just finished listening to the album, and I must say, I LOVE IT, the intro really gets me excited for the rest of the album. Kuu's done it again, she's created another amazing album

[Kingdom]

[emi♡]

Overall, I do not like the album. UNIVERSE was way better in my case.

I thought I was the only one.
I agree with you.

I still have a lot of great memories towards Black Cherry too as that was the 1st Kumi album I bought & let alone listen to

For every single/album Kumi release , there will be bound to be people who like or dislike

in my case , I prefer Dejavu a lot more than UNIVERSE , album tracks wise & UNIVERSE's the only album that I deleted almost 1/2 the album tracks from my mp3player :x

[Corvina]

Kuu looks SO good in the beige dress in Passing by PV!
The PV is really beautiful, one of her best ballad PVs for me.

The Live Dam concert on 15th March will be shown on TV it seems:
