or may be AKB48 has already beaten it

I was going to say that too but I refrained, lol. Although it's probably true.

I see I'm still really curious but I guess no one cares about her digital success then if there's no info about that. :'(

Sometimes I even wonder how well Get It On did as it was her first digital single and was released during her peak. There's no info about its success either. o.O

[Ayu_Love]

^That's true. I really like Get It On. And the introductions to Secret, Kingdom and TRICK. Did anybody know that Kumi wrote the music for Introduction for Kingdom? I never knew that.

I wish I could be excited with this tour, but it's just getting worst and worst.
Even with the previews (POP DIVA and the tv report) my excitement is almost zero.

No Kosox2 or VIP? :'(

Not even IN THE AIR?

I'm a little pissed she put in that unoriginal, recycled, pointless ballad in the tour but not one of her better songs of the year... (No PLC doesn't really count in my opinion). Maybe the rest of the 4 TIMES single will make it in later.

Yeah, I remember reading it on the booklet credits What a shame it was her last so far, I really like Milk Tea <3

I wonder if Kuu will hold an one night show in November/December in order to put it as a second DVD on her next album, she could produce a Dirty ballroom ~second night show~ or something as fierce as DBR <3

[Nu-NRG]

She is STUNNNNNING o.O woaooooow based on the cm I'm a bit annnoyed that it sounds like every other ballads of hers
nothing tops the two Yume no Uta stilll her best ballads up to date

Me too. I thought she would add the 4 new songs from the last single + the songs from the upcoming single to spice it up. She definately should have kicked out all of the Eternity songs, walk, Comes Up, and Lick me.


On another note, speaking of digital music. I wish they would re-release that online only remix album they released for Second Session, sucks that it was in 128 kbps.

From twitter:

Mステ終わったぁ！いやぁーユノandチャンミンにアルバム貰っちゃった！相変わらずいい子達やった(T_ T)東方神起の新曲もかっこいい！あたしノリノリで本番中見ちゃったわ(´Д` )くみちゃん本番中！あたしとした事がまた、楽しんでしまった(*^^*)Mステ25周年おめでとうござい ます

She mentioned Tohoshinki and MS 25th Anniversary Special, but what else did she say? I used google translator but what I got was so messy I don't even bother putting it here. I did wonder though that is this written by Kuu? Sounds like it could be.

[noisy_harmony]

She talked a little (ok... not a little xD) during Tohoshinki's talk part.



I only caught that they were mentioning collaboration from 2007 and Kuu talking about boys' ages (how it was related to talk, I don't know), if I'm not mistaken.

[ren'ai]

^ LOL she talked more than they did haha I love her

[noisy_harmony]

^ ikr, such a chatterbox

[Minttulatte]

Didn't Kuu say once she loves to talk until her voice gets hoarse?

[milky_way]

^ I believe it

Ai wo Tomenaide (Music Station - 2011.09.16)

Nothing special, actually. I'm think I'm not in a ballad mood. XD

[Twinkle !]

lol poor Tohoshinki they didn't even said a word

[Gustavopc]

omg Kuu was so cute in this talk, I love how talkative she is

This live was sooo great, the beginning was trully beautiful and at the end she was sounding and looking so sad but strong <3

I'm hoping that she'll finally get round to doing 'FEVER LIVE IN HALL II'. I remember the CMs for it and they were stunning and we're like "Finally, this moment has come!", which got me really excited....then it never happened. ):

I'm so glad I found those CMs in HD again!:

I thought the performance of 'Ai Wo Tomenaide' on Music Station was very touching, and her voice was perfect. She looked very teary at the end.
