Koi no tsubomi Live

Singing Koi no Tsubomi is a nice change of pace.

Was that song a hit in Japan?

[taskinillusion]

^ I seem to recall it was a MAJOR hit in Japan.

[Gustavopc]

It was. It had trillions of digital downloads, a dorama tie in and is still included ib those random love songs compilations till today

Loved:

New arrangement of the song.
Her outfit.
The fact that the lyrics subtitles included emojicons.

[adantatu2]

^ Koi no Tsubmi is amazing, one of her best songs. I prefer her performance over ayu and her thousands of dancers

[pimenta]

I can't stand Koi no Tsubomi (I used to like it, but now I find it kind of annoying)
I liked all her other performances from FNS, but the outfit was awful...

[se7entheaven]

^have you seen ayu's outfit?

[happiholic★]

^Was it that cowboy hat and yellow shirt get-up I saw?

EDIT: I just watched the perfection that is the Shake Hip PV, and I have to say... I really hope she makes Kumies dolls! Just the word "Kumies" is soooooo cute. Kumies Kumies!

[se7entheaven]

^ yes gurl, she looked hideous! She could've dropped the hat at least! She sounded good though. Kuu sounded abit tired.

[kumis]

According to Kuu's Tieba bar, Summer Trip has sold 22,008 first day. I don't know if this information is accurate and where these fans got this information from but I'm hoping it's true because at least this means she already sold more than Koishikute which terribly flopped. Rhythm Zone just chose a bad day/week to release this single... I don't know why they had to do it now since clearly the music was ready to be released last month

It's just an optimistic estimation. They aren't claiming them as the real first day sales. Still I expect this single to outsell Koishikute's total sales in the first week.

let's follow digital charts 'cause they're less depressing lol

recochoku daily singles
#7 LALALALALA
#38 IS THIS TRAP?
#47 TOUCH DOWN

iTunes Japan
#19 LALALALALA

mu-mo (AVEX's own store)
#1 LALALALALA
#4 IS THIS TRAP?
#6 TOUCH DOWN

mora
#44 LALALALALA (single chart)
#9 (album chart)

They also seem to have released "Summer Single Collection 2013" digitally.
See, it's not as bad as we think. People just don't really buy physical singles anymore without special gimmicks.

[Zahara]

What is that violinist wearing?

Kuu sounds a bit tired, but on key.

[Delicious n Bold]

22k seems plausible when looking at oricon.

And the single is nothing about which to write home. Come on kumi, don't be so stagnant like Ayu. I'm not asking you to be original, just make music out of your comfort level. Electro like pink spider!!!

[Zahara]

I just saw the live video of Shake Hip with the original singer and Kumi.

I never thought I'd see somebody with more energy than her, but he proved me wrong.

[toniayu]

Just received my copy of the single! YAY!
