Look for the ones with 5月. For example, 2014年5月21,22日 = 21 & 22 May.

Thanks for your help
I have checked it but too tough for me to go Kobe while I live at Tokyo
My budget is not supported
Cry cry cry

The second chance is Nagoya tour in July because I may go to Osaka that month.

[do it again]

Finally got around to watching Let's Party Vol. 2. Honestly the best setlist I've ever seen. I had no idea what was on it so it was one pleasant surprise after another.

Ugh, I really hate how (certain) AHS members talk about Kuu as though she's a pest. I should be used to it by now, but I'm not.

That's the point in changing the arrangments imo, lol! XD
She has A LOT of standard, kind of dull ballads that work basically because her voice is divine, and I think she could work with those and pull off an album in which every single one of them shines with a glorious, new acoustic arrangment.
To not mention all of the already epic ballads she could have fun improving even more or changing!
...I just want a Kuu acoustic album, lol.

[sora-kara]

acoustic versions of a wider variety of songs would be way more interesting though.
an acoustic version of JUICY? Yes, this I would listen to (even though I don't like the original song).
How about KuuXDepapepe for an acoustic version of Himitsu or Anata ga Shite Kureta Koto?
An acoustic version of Chase would be fantastic!


Remember, acoustic doesn't have to mean slowed down or mellowed out.

[Gustavopc]

I wouldnt say 15 stay with me, but the songs most likely to get acoustic versions would be her ballads, but summer songs like Lady Go! or Lick me could turn out great, maybe even Poppin' love cocktail. Can We Go Back could get a guitar-ballad version, all sad and dramatic

[marty]

^
Wah, Can We Go Back Guitar Acoustic Version would be THE DEATH OF ME!!
Yeah, let's just think about all Ayu's not-ballads that got an orchestra version, like Last Link in MOON/blossom single or the WHOLE PERFECTION THAT IS AYUMI-X III ACOUSTIC VERSION, with things like Duty and vogue.
Ayu even tried turn WHATEVER acoustic (and it was great). Every song can be rearranged acoustically, the possibilities are endless.

some people will always be stupid. so sad.



Acoustic koda would be amazing because she actually has a great talent for that sort of thing. I hope they would let her give input and not just throw her songs at a bunch of random composers~

[Zahara]

No Way acoustic please.

[pommy48]

Ugh yes, I'll be in Taiwan long enough to go to the tour finale in Taipei

[Yumsushi]

I do agree with some of the other comments about the similarity of her ballads and I personally don't like too many of them but

I'd pay for this.

[Minttulatte]

I just want the studio version of TAKE BACK's acoustic guitar version on a album♥

Really, you just need to pity people who waste their time hating on singers online. It just means they have nothing productive to do. Kuu will continue to not know about their existence and not give two fucks while she rakes in the cash.

I completely agree. So many blah songs that could be amazing with a new arrangement and her beautiful voice.

I admit that I don't like her ballads mainly because of the crappy R'n'B arrangements.... If new acoustic arrangements can possibly change my mind, I won't be against that

[Zeke.]

So I was listening to Okay on the bus from dejavu and let the album continue playing (which I normally don't do cause don't like the songs between that and at the weekend). Got to Passing By which I have always thought was such an unfortunate tragedy. That opening piano melody is just so emotionally driven but the song itself is so ... Yuck. Anyway, has anyone noticed the male vocalist do like an energetic "whow!" In the background at certain parts. Lol, it sounds like a sample you'd use in a club banger, not this type of track. So strange.

[kotora]

Kuu can do a rock album. Her rock songs are good.

[SKYia]

I would love to hear Okay, Slow and No way acoustic, they are those kind of ballads I like most and I cannot imagine them in acoustic version, should be interesting.

[Gustavopc]

^ I can imagine an acoustic version of No way with her screaming a NOOOOOOOOOOO WAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY before the final chours and some seconds of silence like in Yune no uta and then BOOM ORCHESTRA GOES ON

[NintendoHTF1242]

So Bon Voyage just arrived yay!

Do any of you guys actually like Crank Tha Bass? Because it's kind of awful lol

[ayumisrael]

So I was listening to Promise a lot lately, maybe thanks to the new remix, and even though the song is awesome, I just can't at the Engrish beginning... I like the japanese lyrics kuu wrote but kuu's engrish was aweful at that time

make your love reach you boy - (his love will reach himself?)
love will take me into the night - (whose love?)
place that live never been - (Who is "live"?)
boy you're gonna love so good - (who shall he love so good?)
everytime you touch me
I can feel you love so strong - (your* or me*)
that will never end ~ - (maybe add and?)

=P the song is still good though. Tell you the truth, when I sing along, I still sing the engrish lyrics as well.

^I like Crank the bass!~ (crank the boose!) Crank the bass!~ (crank the boose!) Crank the bass!~ (crank the boose!) just do it do it!
