Also major throwback when Mika had blonde hair



Ryota Ariki gave Mika a LIMITED EDITION BY ARIKI bracelet which she wore it as a choker at that time

I wish this could be the next release cover. SEXY.

i've recently been obsessed with NANA...but i also really love ORION. However, all i heard of hers was ballads. Am i bumping only into them or does she only do those? cuz i would really like to explore her stuff a bit more, but ballads to me in general are such a difficult thing to get into.

[Diva_br]

You can try with SPIRAL, Lonely Star, PASSION, I DON'T KNOW, FOCUS...

[Utena]

I would add LIFE, Over Load, GAME, RESISTANCE, Today, ALL HANDS TOGETHER (a fan favorite, especially if you experience it live in concerts)

Hanataba PV short version

https://www.facebook.com/kumonoito.n...3347008424545/

The full PV was broadcasted on M-ON! earlier on this morning

Mika looks great (although I'm not so keen on the red streaks hair extensions on her) & her wedding ring is quite visible

===

Mezamashi TV talked about Hanataba this morning



The behind the scenes footages are cute

[AyuGAME]

she looks kinda scary on the PV..but I like the dress..

everytime I watch her singing...I always remember this clip

[Delicious n Bold]

The song is REALLY going to have to grow on me, it does nothing for me.

[KarenPang]

Hanataba PV was directed by Takashi Tadokoro & the PV was shot at Shizuoka's Fuji Kachoen

Takashi Tadokoro also directed some of Mika's past PVs which included

- Seppun
- LEGEND
- I LOVE YOU
- MY SUGAR CAT

I love MIKA for keeping the traditional 00's style PVs. Every time she does a PV, it's gorgeous and reminds me of older Ayu works. I wish Ayu would put as much effort into her PVs these days.

OMFG. OMG. I couldn't contain myself when the MIKA came floating in as the Ayu was singing. They nailed her so hilariously. And her sudden solo part later in the video... I don't think I've laughed this hard at a music parody in years.

going to try these! Thanks, you two!

[KarenPang]

Upbeat non ballads singles wise , CANDY GIRL & LOVE IS ECSTASY are worth checking out

The PV for CANDY GIRL is still 1 of my favourite PVs of Mika up to now

And I also like the DAISHI DANCE remix of SAKURA ~Hanagasumi~ , 1 of the rare occasions that I like the remix more than the A-side

B-sides wise , I like SUPER WOMAN (B-side of Ashita Sekai ga Owaru Nara) , FOCUS (B-side of ORION)

For the full Rock experience , you can't go wrong with the entire THE END album

Albums tracks wise , LONELY STAR (from STAR) , BLACK & BLUE + DANCE WITH THE DEVIL (from YES) are great

[inspire_rmx]

really in love with the cover, song n PV!

[KarenPang]

New photo that Mika posted on her Instagram



http://instagram.com/p/8zLwHljI5s/

Mika wrote that she took part in the opening of a new BURBERRY shop . Her hairstyle looks almost the same as what she had in the Hanataba PV

On that note , another last round of fanclub premium live concert taking place later tonight

[Utena]

^ she looks a bit scary ahah

So in love with the song and PV ♥♥
