[Koda Kumi] The 165th Thread – 56th Single 「Dreaming Now!」

[Minttulatte]

feel my mind's amazeness can't be denied♥ I still remember that day when I first heard it and though "this album's very good~"

5. Koda Kumi
1. A sexy J-Pop singer with a lot of emotion in her work.
2. A nerd's dream wife.

I feel this album will be like Namie's Feel, which I think it's kinda uninspired for Kumi to do... I mean, it worked really well with Namie because of her "cool" style, but with Kuu I always expect strong and soulful songs since her vocal is powerfull.

The thing I'm praying the most is another song / intro with whistle tone. I remember when they first announced Darling, they said the song had a lot of high notes but it wasn't that much anyway.

And I always want more songs with the "jazz"ish style, from songs like Cutie Honey (the instrumental is pure gold) to feel.

Ohh,yeah! Chase Part II would be really nice or maybe something enka like she did on Color the cover!

[Gustavopc]

^ tbh I dream of Kuu releasing an enka cover album like Akina Nakamori did

[marty]

Yay for enka Kuu! I want that so much!
And acoustic Kuu. And maybe even opera Kuu (because I love opera). Seriously, this woman voice's possibilities are endless. She should experimenting even more than what she did, there are singers who can't, but she definetely can, and should.

Enka Kuu would be amazing. Her voice is suited for that, too. I love her deep voice. She needs to say in a lower register more often.

The 1000 no kotoba ~orchestra version~ is already amazing, she really should have more orchestrated songs. I remember when ayu was releasing A CLASSICAL and people started talking about Kuu releasing something alike and named it "Kuu-lassical" I'd die for that btw

Talking again on the new album, I'd love her to work with Mika Ninagawa again, the Color The Cover shooting was a BOOM of eyegasms, and Pink Spider looked pretty good even with that messy editing. I would be in heaven if the covers looked something like this shoot of hers:

This would be great. Her deep voice is so goood!! But she's wasting her talent on songs like Dreaming now although the message of the song is really nice.

[Minttulatte]

Kuu is probably the only artist that can make me really crazy about enka music. I'm not a fan of the genre but when Kuu sings in that style, it sends shivers go down my spine. She's just so awesome. I wouldn't mind her turning into a enka singer at some point tbh.

I kind of agree, because even if that style is very nice, she did everything she could with it. I'm not saying she should abandon it (I'd die without my Ero-Kuu music), but she really can space more with genres and stuff, it can't be anything but good for her career.

Let's Party Vol. 2 last concert was held yesterday, there are some pics on peeproom Now with the FC Tour over, I'm pretty sure she'll focus on the new album. Cant wait for rumours, they're always my favorite part hahahahaha Wonder if the song HIRO gave Kuu in the begining of the year and the one she recorded in LA with the Toby guy [?] will be on the album

[Minttulatte]

^I'M READY FOR THE NEW ALBUM♥

[Corvina]

Here are the pics!

[AyuHamasaki01]

^The last picture I really love her outfit and she looks so fierce in the first picture.

[Gustavopc]

I think that the thing that is making me want to see some official footage of this concert is her hairstyle It's so... so... gif-able

[happiholic★]

I want a DVD of Let's Party 2!!

[emi♡]

I was in the mini thread, and realised that we have never gotten, and probably will never get, the full movie for Pink Spider

[Minttulatte]

^They did release a full version on the internet actually. It was 1 hour (?) long. I couldn't watch it though because my internet sucked back then. :<

And those concert photos are awesome! I hope this will get a DVD release too♥

[setsuka]

I think its only 10 minutes well if you mean the UULA version / http://www.jpopsuki.tv/video/Koda-Ku...a79fe72e96c560

this is full thing I believe unless there is an even longer version
