That was actually how I discovered Fergie and not vice versa like normal people.

kkjjkkhk;

 

you're a real character, sis.

[Britneyfan09]

Oh come on y'all. You have to admit this was a MOMENT.

 

 

[Curaga]

not the 0  aljsaiopufahaa

[Frappucino]

This one feels more like Fergie feat Kumi but a bop is a bop 

[Graves]

I wonder how much further than this Moon Crying is going to go

[Suilen]

54. 運命 (Unmei aka Destiny)

6,30

 

misonos: Britneyfan09, poki (10)
Newtsters: Fevesy, Meloetta Carey, Subomie (3); Galaxy (3,5)

 

I don't really use this one, but the single artwork is a serve.

 

Curaga: "I was not liking this one at all, but it got way better in the 2nd half when the drums and guitar came in. Kinda creepy video, but super cool VFX of the mirror shattering in slow motion while she's singing in real time."
Kyle-x: "For some reason this one has never really stuck out for me."
getinthezone: "good ballad"
AMIT: "one of her best bridges"
Subomie: "Definitely listened to a ballad that sounded just like this about four songs ago."

I can't wait to get to that one because one of the comments had me gagging for days.

Cherry Girl >

The VOCALS, the EMOTION. A Mariah Carey tea and it's this low?

Ooh I should make a gif of this tonight 

Surprised this one's out already! I liked it

[Frappucino]

It would've been better if it was a tad shorter cause the build up to the end is pretty good, it just kinda of a drag to get through it 

[Suilen]

53. It's all Love! (Kumi Koda x misono)

6,31

 

misonos: poki (10)
Newtsters: @Fevesy (0)

 

Mika Nakashima went really silent after this one. As for misono, the poor girl was ahead of her time because she was underground idol-coded, and they started popping only after her album failed to sell 10k copies and her career got shelved, though rumor has it that Tales of fans did make it sell out 4 years later.

 

Kyle-x: "They were going absolutely crazy in that studio."
getinthezone: "used to hate it but its actually good"
Fevesy: "I'm giving this a 0 because it's misono"
AMIT: "stream Starry Heavens"
Subomie: "Don't know if this is awful or amazing… so I rated appropriately."
Invisibility: "Never heard a misono song besides this in my life, but I've always thought it was a cute collab and dig that we got rawk chic Kumi for it. It needn't be 5 minutes though."
poki: "I like to rock out I like to throw stuff I like to holler I like to scream"
 

[Graves]

is misono the Solange of J-pop? Or more of a Noah Cyrus??

[romiskes]

The things we gotta do for family...

 

[Curaga]

It's not amazing, but I thought it was kinda fun 

[Britneyfan09]

At least it gave misono a #1 Oricon single! Not everybody has that......

 

[Frappucino]

Another song that could've been shorter, just like misono's career 

[Suilen]

52. hands

6,5

misonos: romiskes, UrMom (10)
Newtsters: @Meloetta Carey (0)

 

I have hands too, she isn't special.

 

Kyle-x: "Can't go wrong with a Kuu ballad."
getinthezone: "okay ballad"
AMIT: "I love the melodies in this one. doesn't go quite as hard as Kiseki, but still great!"
Meloetta Carey: "My super secret motive for doing this rate was trying to find some hit ballads. "hands" was allegedly a hit so I went to it first, but I just never saw it for her."
Subomie: "Fell asleep."

I would never! I was referring to the Eyes On You songstress of course. JASMINE deserved a #1

[Suilen]

The last one for today

 

51. feel

6,53

 

misonos: Kyle-x, AMIT, UrMom (10)
Newtsters: poki (2)

 

Another part of the 12 singles leaves us. I didn't even notice she was speaking English until the comments pointed it out, though I could register some whispers.

 

Kyle-x: "I love how sexy this one is. The video is one that has imprinted on my memory for some reason."
getinthezone: "her songs where she doesnt scream >>>"
AMIT: "the engrish parts are catchy y'all be nice"
Subomie: "Chill and easy listening R&B groove. I dig. Even if that chorus is some rambling nonsense. Let her talk her ****."

[Curaga]

Great start! My 7s–10s are all still intact 

 

[Frappucino]

The only thing that song made me feel was whiplash
