[Miliyah Kato] invites you to embrace LIBERTY in thread #7

[Corvina]

No, she's not retiring.
If you're following her on Instagram, you can also see it there - she posted about recording the last two days on her stories.

1 I'd take me live if she does. But her recording doesn't mean anything. i can see a hiatus single or even a new best of. M BEST is a few years old now. I really wanted to see her live again this year. Damn.

[wednesday]

Congrats, Miliyah! I wonder if this is the dude from the ~tabloids~ with the two wives and kids...

Nobody knows what exactly the future brings, but I think her message makes it pretty clear she doesn't want to retire.

She also thanked everybody in an Instagram post:

Several other singers like Mika Nakashima, Thelma Aoyama, Beni and Meisa Kuroki are gratulating her in the comments.

Congrats to Miliyah!

[ayu_ready?]

I'm very happy for Miliyah! I wish her a healthy marriage

[mi|kshake]

Congrats Miliyah!

I just received my copy of Femme Fatale so listening to it and gathering my thoughts on it.

[Corvina]

Miliyah shot a PV two days ago:



She says it's for an important song so it was an important day for her.

[lovethatkuu&ayu]

I actually forgot that this is her 15th anniversary year! I still remember the first time I heard Dear Lonely Girl.

[thinkingoutloud89]

I'm glad she is giving us new music (maybe even an album) before she is away for some time.

edit: delete this if it is against the rule but: I went to the Celebration tour in Sendai last year. as the set was pretty small and without screens, I was curious to see how it will look on DVD, but haven't bought it yet. i took a glimpse at it now, since I found it online. Its's still awesome!:

愛が降る PV short version

[thinkingoutloud89]

The whole song is very beautiful. I love the softness. Still haven't found the single online yet and it's not up for streaming.

+ she is going on tour in september and gave birth to a baby boy a week ago.

[wednesday]

Aw! Congrats to her again!

Am I crazy or is Darling a cover of Gaga's You & I?

While I can't confirm you are crazy or not, it may bring you some comfort to know that the covers for the single are giving me serious deja vu. I swear to all the deities that I've seen them before.

I thought the same. At least it starts similar.

[Ryusei]

Def. not a "cover" per se but very similar vibe yes

[Gustavopc]

Actually now listenning again I'm thinking of samples instead of cover. The chorus is very similar, she even sings "ai" where it was "you and I". I checked credits online and it says myliah composed it.

She pulls this shit a lot tbh and it really bothers me. STYLE is basically a straight rip-off of Azalea Banks’ 212 but Miliyah credited herself as the sole writer.

There’s a lot of Miliyah’s music that I like but instances like this always make me raise an eyebrow

[Ryusei]

She used to officially sample A LOT I mean heck she has a whole sample best but I'd say she was "heavily inspired" lol
