[love in music]

i don't hear the 'so' either..
but the 'many keys' part makes me laugh i luv it

[ayumisrael]

Instead of the "so" I hear kumi singing "wa" I thought that it was justa typo x_x.

[Cloudsoldier]

"wa" is inside the lyrics

i didn't hear "so" too.

Yep I heard "wa" too. Anyway, YAY #1!

[KarenPang]

wah I'm shocked that the CD only edition of TABOO's already on sale here at the local HMV :O

it's going for S$19.95 , I probably will pick up a copy in time to come

[waterballoon]

Good sales for TABOO! Yay!

And the SCawaii scans are... no comments. And she seriously looks like some weird Ayu-mutant in the calendar scan. I hope it's due to the quality...

Baby come wit' me
Imma show u something you've never seen before
Come and take my hands
Imma show u something you've never seen before UH!

I know it's our secret
Gotta keep it to yourself tonight

Here we go now!

闇に身を包んでから　escape
抜け出す先はいつもの　that spot
合図したら　Imma let you get inside
ハンドル握りしめて　drive away

間違い？　ユメ？
幻なの？
わかっていても　I can't help it
隠せない　気持ち
こうなるはずじゃなかったのに

閉じた心　手元には　so many keys
秘密の鍵　どれで　open your heart
どんな君　みせてくれる？
止まらない　TABOO
止められない　TABOO

たくさんの　dream & secret love
私となら　which one do you like?
選んでみても　I'll take the handle away
君のハンドル握りしめて　drive away

賭けてみる？
it's party night
眠れない　I Can't help it
後戻り　出来ない
こうなるはずじゃなかったのに

閉じた心　手元には　so many keys
秘密の鍵　どれで　open your heart
どんな君　みせてくれる？
止まらない　TABOO
止められない　TABOO

無数に散らばる
中だとしても　見つけられるから
心のドア開く
たった一つの鍵　どんな手段でも…

試してみなきゃ　わからないこともあるから
さぁ　目を閉じて
禁断の扉

I know it's our secret
Gotta keep it to yourself tonight
Can't stop how I feel
こうなるはずじゃなかったのに

閉じた心　手元には　so many keys
秘密の鍵　どれで　open your heart
どんな君　みせてくれる？
止まらない　TABOO
止められない　TABOO

開いた扉　手元には　the one key
秘密のドア　これで　open your heart
どんな未来　みせてくれる？
止まらない　TABOO
止められない　TABOO

Yami ni mi wo tsutsunda kara escape
Nukedasu saki wa itsumono that spot
Aizu shitara Imma let you get inside
HANDORU nigiri shimete drive away

Machigau? YUME?
Maboroshi na no?
Wakatteite mo I can't help it
Kakusenai kimochi
Kounaru hazu janakatta no ni

Tojita kokoro te moto ni wa so many keys
Himitsu no kagi dore de open your heart
Donna kimi misete kureru?
Tomaranai TABOO
Tomerarenai TABOO

Takusan no dream & secret love
Watashi to nara which one do you like ?
En de mite mo I'll take the handle away
Kimi no HANDORU nigiri shimete drive away

Kakete miru ?
It's party night
Nemurenai I can't help it
Ato modori dekinai
Kounaru hazu janakatta no ni

Tojita kokoro te moto ni wa so many keys
Himitsu no kagi dore de open your heart
Donna kimi misete kureru?
Tomaranai TABOO
Tomerarenai TABOO

Musuu ni chirabaru
Naka da toshitemo mitsukerareru kara
Kokoro no DOA hiraku
Tatta hitotsu no kagi donna shudan demo...

Tameshite minakya wakaranai koto mo aru kara
Saa, me wo tojite
kidan no tobira

I know it's our secret
Gotta keep it to yourself tonight
Can't stop how I feel
Kounaru hazu janakatta no ni

Tojita kokoro te moto ni wa so many keys
Himitsu no kagi dore de open your heart

Tomerarenai TABOO

Aita tobira te moto ni wa the one key
Himitsu no DOA kore de open your heart
Donna mirai misete kureru?
Tomaranai TABOO
Tomerarenai TABOO

Thanks!

OMG WHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYY!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?


Just when I was back to thinking you were hot, you go and look like Ayu. Not that I think Ayu's fug or anything, but I don't think she's hot.

Finally came around to listening to TABOO. The beat is sick. Much better than the preview video played.

Always is probably the first ballad by Kumi that I like.

Great single this time around.

Fashion is not a strong point on Kumi...

[Twinkle !]

woooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

taboo got in first day 38,045

that so great

maybe she got more than 125000 copies in weekly

because freaky got 25000 in first day

what do u think guys

i'm right ?

quite low for debut sales

Considering the fact that it's her first day, #1, and she has sales like that to start off with, it really isn't that bad, I see maybe a little over 90k for the week total..if not that.

And for the lyrics when she says "many keys" I always thought she was saying "Males Kiss" with her funky engrish and such...lol

[do it again]

i hope ur right! this single is so good.
does anybody want to translate the oricon interview?

http://www.oricon.co.jp/music/interv...html?id=topfla

[Zeke.]

Wow. She does look a lot like Ayu in that calendar shot. But anways, I really am liking Always! I didn't listen to it until I recently downloaded the 320 Kbps rip of TABOO and wasn't really expecting much since most of the comments about it weren't too great but I really do like the song! Much better than ai no uta!

[Princess Sohee]

Horrible sales!

Thanks for that interview it was a really interesting read

[RikkuChii]

Well, if the sales continue like the day TABOO was released, she could be selling quite well by the end.

[Princess Sohee]

The thing is, she isnt consistent or stable or whatever in sales. She\'ll sell 100k next week and drop to 20k the next. A lot of times she starts off at #1 for the first couple days as well and then drops lower and gets #2 or #3 weekly.

[Twinkle !]

guys i think u see the sales is so bad !

i think it's not

she will sales in first week more than 100,000 copies

and the artist who sold more 100,000 he is perfect

and i see she will sold well more than MOON
