Thanks Lina, she is an amazing performer and agree that she is a breath of fresh air. I like all the girl groups and idols in Japan, but Koda Kumi is very different and I like her urban and R&B vibe :)
I like how that guy is justed posted up behind Kumi and the girls while they dance. It looks so awkward sometimes Lol I miss the 'Real Emotion' era Koda Kumi actually, but she's still a beautiful girl<3
Just watched her performance on TV. It was awesome. After saccharine sweetness of girl bands and whatnot, watching her is quite refreshing for me. xD
