    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

    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
