[Koda Kumi] The 177th Thread - Still 15th Anniversary

[Surreal17]

EX TAPE and Hurricane sound amazing!! This would have made a great single.

[happiholic★]

If anyone cares, I like FF X2.

Singapore is one of the places I want to visit so badly. To see Kuu in concert there would be a dream come true.

[mi|kshake]

I'm finally replaying the FFX2 HD Remaster and am enjoying it like I did when it first came out! I remember buying Kumi's Grow Into One (my first album of hers) and Sweetbox's Adagio in preparation for the game!

To me X2 and Crisis Core were the last great FF games.

You definitely should visit my country even though it will be an almost 20 hours airplane ride from where you live

I really hope avex Singapore will publish flight details of Kuu because avex Taiwan always does this by posting flight details of their artistes (should they go to Taiwan to perform) via their website & they did that recently when Kuu arrived in Taipei last Friday

Somehow I don't think avex Singapore will do that :x They're not like AMUSE Singapore where they publish their artistes' flight details rather openly online

Longer preview of NO ONE ELSE BUT YOU

[Diva_br]

It's so calm i really like it

[happiholic★]

@Karen: I totally love plane rides! The longest I've been on was 15 hours or so, and I didn't mind at all. It's just finding the money and time off to do it.

In other news, No One Else But You is perfection to my ears. I loooooooove it. I'm also loving Hurricane. It's cool how it kinda starts off light and breezy and then hits you with full force. Kinda like gusts of wind before a big storm

[luna7996]

''No One Else But You'' sounds so far like perfection to me! I usually don't get too exited about compilation albums but I am super exited for this particular release.

By the grace of Koddess, the best song on the single why she doesnt do PV for the best songs seriously. Once again, Is this trap?, Turn around and now No one else but you :c

I've been to USA almost 20 years ago & sitting an almost 18 hours airplane ride back then as a kid was thrilling but if you ask me to do it now , uh probably not :x

yeah my thoughts exactly , NO ONE ELSE BUT YOU should have gotten a PV & the same thing goes for IS THIS TRAP? + TURN ROUND too :x D:

For once it will be nice if she can sing either NO ONE ELSE BUT YOU and/or EX TAPE this coming Sat but of course hearing the full take of HURRICANE ain't 1/2 bad either :3

[Ryusei]

^^ Honestly I think they're doing it on purpose, because you don't wanna be known as the person who only has good tracks that have PVs or that have no good album tracks/B-sides so they're "upgrading" the worse songs (don't get me wrong here EX TAPE and hurricane are great to me) with a PV and then they leave that song on its own as a nice surprise or smth. hard to explain I hope you get what I mean ://

[Corvina]

Oh, Ai wo tomenaide! Would have totally been the song I'd have chosen as well. I love that ballad to death!
Sorry, Karen! :0
But chances are high, whoever will be chosen as a fan in Singapore, will take one of the other songs from the song menue, that weren't performed yet.

The song style for NO ONE ELSE BUT YOU is just not my style. But this longer preview sounds better than the short one.

[KarenPang]

Haha it's ok Marika , no worries I'm not offended xD

I would like it if Kuu will sing 1 of her older ballads this coming Sat . If she sing either hands and/or you , that will be really awesome *_*

I mean she has other better ballads aside from Ai no Uta D:

[oaristos]

NO ONE ELSE BUT YOU sounds promising

[Gustavopc]

Gosh, seems like I'll enjoy this song MUCH more than I expected. tbh all three tracks didn't sound promising at the start but I'm crazy for EX TAPE and HURRICANE right now. If this were a Summer single, it would have been my favorite of hers since 4 TIMES.

[Surreal17]

I like all three songs!!

[DevilsClap]

I'm not really a fan of NO ONE ELSE BUT YOU
the other two songs are much more my type and I enjoy those two from what we have sp it's ok if I don't like one song

[maze]

If this was a single I can totally see the theme being "tape", Summer tape; and the interludes ~Side A~ ~Side B~ etc, its been a long time since some of her PVs are connected too :c would have been a great single

KarenPang and Ryusei: yees, I agree with you
besides she and avex always promote more the songs that are more appealing for the general public, that's a fact

I'm going to post them but you did ahead
I love to see CM-spot for every release, AVEX has always edited them interestingly.

I look forward to Hurricane, i hope full PVs will have something more, not like Hotel - Money In My Bag that are high and low production.
