[Koda Kumi] The 154th Thread – Go to the top (10/24) + New Winter Ballad Single (12/05)

[Daggi_X]

I'm not sure if this has been posted yet, but there's a 1:30 min version of Koishikute on Soundcloud. Much better than I expected to be honest!

Koishikute sounds much better judging by the longer preview!

[Corvina]

Benikari, you're cover is amazing!
Maybe I'm going to use it as well!

LOVE the beginning of Koishikute, beautiful!
Might be a good ballad in full.

Go to the top is at #3 today on Oricon!
*3 *5,798 倖田來未
Great daily sales!

^Good to see her at #3 on the second week, sweet. What does Koishikute means BTW

I'm a bad fan

lmao the left side of her hair is kind of weird, indeed. But I like that contacts match her hair color.

I like that train behind her, looks so cool. Great job.

[salina]

[Ayu_Love]

Looks like SNSD has taken inspiration from Kuu's UNIVERSE Tour for their 2012 Japanese comeback!

[do it again]

Kind of reminds me of Unmei a bit... Hopefully the ending will be a great dramatic one!!

lyric preview ~~

「さよなら」の一言で　こんなに切ないの
携帯が　また鸣ると期待して　握り缔める
初めての恋じゃないのにね　どんな谁よりも爱してた
后にも　先にも　あなただった
今さら気付いて　もう遅いのにね？

恋しくて　恋しくて　何度も泣いた
逢いたくて　逢いたくて　胸が苦しい
心の中は　今もあの日のまま
あなただけの「永远」になりたかった

sayonara no hitokoto de konna ni setsunai no
keitai ga mata naru to kitai shite nigiri shimeru
hajimete no koi janai noni ne donna dare yori mo aishiteta
atonimo sakinimo anata datta
imasara kiduite mou osoi noni ne?

koishikute koishikute nandomo naita
aitakute aitakute mune ga kurushii
kokoro no naka wa ima mo ano hi no mama
anata dake no eien ni naritakatta

That's kinda awesome imo I love SNSD too.

[Ayu_Love]

^yeah it is, Kuu is my favourite artist of all time, I've been with her long before I got into KPOP, so to see other artists that I like take inspiration from her makes me happy.

[Gustavopc]

I totally remembered of Air Koda when I saw these pics on tumblr, even the colors are similar lmao

The preview for Koishikute is soooo heavenly, LOVE it so much <3

@ALfromHELLSING If I'm not mistaken, Koishikute means "I love you" in a not as strong way as Aishiteru. But I may be wrong, there are so many words related to love in Japanese it drives me crazy lol

koishikute means "I miss you" ;_; XD ahaha

[Gustavopc]

^ Aint that Aitakute? DDDDDD: omg I give up already

[happiholic★]

In regards to the Air Koda, honestly that concept is as old as the Earth itself, I don't know if was inspired by Kuu specifically.

[setsuka]

creys Koishikute is flawless and will make them cellphone carrying girls cry and download it

looking forward to see what RIAJ certifications this hit will get!!!

also IA, Air Koda is like a pretty tried concept.......remember Tommy Airline anyone? anyway she did better than SNSD tbh,there's looks a little rushed and awkward

[Gustavopc]

What makes me think that Kuu did better than SNSD is that she gave the vintage style was all around, not only on the clothes, but also on the slogans, the camera angles and posing, while SNSD took vintage clothes and put them into modern scenarios.

[emi♡]

Yeah...both of them just copied the 60s airline style.

It's pretty iconic, and everyone usually does it the same.

I like them both.

[Ayu_Love]

I think it's 'I miss you', because the i-adjective 'Koshii' means to miss, and 'Koishikute' is the KU verb form of 'Koishii', I believe, although I could be wrong

Also I like both, it's the same concept but both done a little differently, even though they are very similar!

I haven't listened to the Koishikute preview yet, must do that now!

Koishikute sounds really lovely, I am more excited for it's release now. <3

[maze]

I think the right translation of koishikute is "missing you", or that's what I've heard

it sounds so beautiful, much better than ai wo tomenaide and suki de. pretty excited for this single!
