Slow

I wanna be with you slow slow...

Your idea of happiness is self-centered no no
What is important? Feelings and righteousness?
Or pride? No no
I want you to say “Come be my wifey”
You are a part of me, an irreplaceable part
You feel the same, don’t you?

“This is fine. No, not like that”
Don’t decide things like that on your own
The things you see
The things you feel
I want to watch them together with you

All the money and cars
Seeing you strain yourself
I don’t need those kinds of things
I wanna be with you
I want you to stay who you are
Don’t leave me behind
I wanna be with you slow slow...

I don’t need more than I have now
By loving you everyday is filled with love
And I’m happy, so why? why?
If you take hold of other things
Your mindset and the real you
Will cease to matter, won’t they?
It’s like hitting an invisible wall

You can’t buy kindness with money
You already have it, don’t you?
That person and this person too
The missing things...
Make my life complete

All the money and cars
Seeing you strain yourself
I don’t need those kinds of things
I wanna be with you
I want you to stay who you are
Don’t leave me behind
I wanna be with you slow slow...

It ain't trickin' 'cause I got it
Shoppin' down in Saint-Tropez
We flyin' G5 Comp
So we ain't gotta pay
Glad I brought you out
I know you like the finer things
You already shine, but imma make you bling
The next thing is dead stock designer coats
Later we'll be chillin' jet skis, yachts and boats
Paparazzi snappin' photos chasin' after me
But we'll be ditchin' they ass so it's just you and me
The only one I need, the only destiny
I wanna keep it real with you for eternity
I love you girl don't want to keep this on the low low
But fuck the life if I gotta live it dowlow

I want it slow. Let’s take it slow
Let’s go and destroy the things that tear us apart

All the money and cars
Seeing you strain yourself
I don’t need those kinds of things
I wanna be with you
I want you to stay who you are
Don’t leave me behind
I wanna be with you slow slow...

I wanna be with you slow...

Till the break of dawn dawn
You'd better hurry chop chop boom! (Kind of, like of)
Till the break of dawn dawn
You'd better hurry chop chop boom! (I gotta)
Till the break of dawn dawn
You'd better hurry chop chop boom boom!
Till the break of dawn dawn
You'd better hurry chop chop boom!

Don’t think it’s too much
Don’t stop, escalate more and more!
Take it no more ‘cause I know know, gotta know all
More! One more! More! One more!

Hanging out all night every day
Feelings escalate more and more
Take it no more ‘cause I know know, gotta know all
See? From my fingertips tic tic tic, I wanna make sure tap tap tap

I gotta game all way. You’d better play all day
No way! Escalate! No way!
I gotta game all way. You’d better play all day
Welcome! Escalate! Don’t stop!

Till the break of dawn dawn
You'd better hurry chop chop boom boom
Till the break of dawn dawn
You'd better hurry chop!

No time-out every night
Don’t stop, escalate more and more!
Gotta show me your love, what up! Gotta hit me! Haaa ha! ha!
More! One more! One more!

I’m a perceptive one
On a whim, jump aboard! Escalate!
Take it no more ‘cause I know know, gotta know all
See? From my fingertips tic tic tic, I wanna make sure tap tap tap

I gotta game all way. You’d better play all day
No way! Escalate! No way!
I gotta game all way. You’d better play all day
Welcome! Escalate! Don’t stop!

Brushing past each other is both our faults, right?
I chose you
If you can go over there
Be my guest, feel free to go

I gotta game all way. You’d better play all day
No way! Escalate! No way!
I gotta game all way. You’d better play all day
You'd better not forget I’m the one who makes the rules

I gotta game all way. You’d better play all day
No way! Escalate! No way!
I gotta game all way. You’d better play all day
Welcome! Escalate! Don’t stop!

Till the break of dawn dawn
You'd better hurry chop chop boom boom
Till the break of dawn dawn
You'd better hurry chop!
Till the break of dawn dawn
You'd better hurry chop chop boom boom
Till the break of dawn dawn
You'd better hurry chop!

No Man’s Land

No man’s no man’s no man’s land...

You’re all talk. I hate you
Ding dong ding dong ding ding ding dong yo
I actually trusted you. I look like an idiot now
Ding dong ding dong ding ding ding dong yo
Our love is closed
Even the meaning of goodbye is unclear
I've woken up to reality
I want to forget right now

I’ve been running in circles round and round
A mysterious merry-go-round
I know I can set myself free
From an inescapable area
No matter how long it takes
Wooo wooo
Welcome to no man’s land

No man’s no man’s no man’s land...

Zero zero, erasing my memory
I was an independent woman, new hero
Uh lalalala
Looking painfully deep inside my heart

I’ve been running in circles round and round
A mysterious merry-go-round
I know I can set myself free
From an inescapable area
No matter how long it takes
Wooo wooo
Welcome to no man’s land

No man’s no man’s no man’s land...

No matter where I go this is still my home
I’ve grown used to the pain. This is my home
No matter where I go this is still my home
I don’t have to see a new world anymore

Everybody put your hands like this

I’ve been running in circles round and round
A mysterious merry-go-round
I know I can set myself free
From an inescapable area
No matter how long it takes
Wooo wooo
Welcome to no man’s land

No man’s no man’s no man’s land...

slow feat. Omarion. Такая трогательная вещь! Из трёх клипов, что вышли, это пока самый классный. Прямо Ромео и Джульетта перед концом света. Очень классное видео! Рекомендую.

Эм... Сначала общая характеристика. Альбом разделён на 2 части. В первой преобладают позитивно-балладные мелодии и вы рискуете заснуть до начала интерлюдии, после чего вас ждёт ударная волная энергетических треков. Начало у альбома очень грамотное. После интро идёт именно та песня, которая должна идти после подобной мелодии и в альбоме с таким названием. Они там на месте. Правда, первый раз в истории Коды интро мне не понравилось. После чего в голову ударяют 2 трека клубно-тяжёлого содержания.
Потом идёт slow feat. Omarion и я думаю, что ей поставить. 4 или 5? В песне что-то есть, но и что-то не устраивает. Потенциальный лидер.
Абсолютно безликие brave & everyday, к концу которых я честно пыталась не заснуть. Потом была шикарная IN THE AIR и лучшей жизнерадостно-позитивной песни в альбоме вы не найдёте.
You're not alone, под которую желание заснуть вернулось. Вообще не понимаю, что это троечная песня здесь забыла.
Потом начинается дивная интерлюдия (почему это не в начале?) и идут три моих любимых песни подряд.
ESCALATE - лучшая песня альбома и мой фаворит вместе в интерлюдией.
Love Me Back. Про неё я писала раньше.
No Mans' Land. Оказалась лучше, чем я думала. Дивное интро и начало песни. И куплеты классные. Думаю, я её ещё буду слушать.
В качестве передыха от ритмов очень кстати стоит Ai wo Tomenaide.
Ko-So-Ko-SO и Lay Down (4) напоследок и мы окунаемся в идеальный финал альбома. Идеальный и грамотный с точки зрения построения песен, ибо сами песни далеко не очень. На позитивный лад настраивают Love Technique и выводит из альбома All for U.

Итого: 6 баллов из 5 за грамотное построение начала и конца альбома. Они идеальны. Середина подкачала. Сами песни колеблются в районе от 3 до 5 баллов. Фавориты - Interlude, ESCALATE. Потенциальные лидеры (которых хочется переслушивать) - slow, No Mans' Land & Lay Down.
Сам альбом переслушивать не тянет.

тема клипа - конец света/разрушение мира

Introduction: It has a theme how other countries see Japan. The song will be the introduction for the album, and it has the image of a "oiran" (courtesan) walking, while saying "please follow me"

So nice: The oiran who walk across and waiting for a guy who can light the flames　(probably it has a sexual implicit since it's Kuu-chan ). The major color in the MV is red and gold (the dress) and it's so Koda Kumi-ish. Since she once lived in Kyoto, she wants to try the oiran style.

BBB: Close to FREAKY, Rock and Dance tune. The theme is a free wild woman who drinking alcohol everyday, dating with different guy everyday. The story of the MV is a woman who drinking alcohol in the club and dancing to release the stress.

Slow: There are a lot of guys who think that "you can't give happines to a woman if you don't have money". on the other part, woman thinks "there is other thing that is more imporant than money. I only waiting for you, your kindness and smile; because it's your charm". Kuu and Omarion will be move in real time-motion, meanwhile the other cast will be in slow-motion.

Brave: Actually this song was finished 3 years ago. The story is about a guy who got seperated with the girl; even tho I were re-born, i wanted you to love me again; and i wish that you would think the same way too. The MV, in the room there is a uncoordinated clock, hanging on a tree. After the break-up, the time doesn't move; the girl wants that time to come back.

Everyday: no matter whether you're sad or happy, as long as you're together, you'll be happy. MV will use a lot of CG. Rainy girl and Sunny girl. Typical cutesy song

ESCALATE: When the feeling of love is increasing, the mood is escalating. The strong woman type of song. The MV shows that love is like a chess game. There won't be too much dancing scene, but the choreo is cool; and she can't wait to perform it live. In further detail, she wear a different contact lense color on her right-left eye.

No Man's land: the demo and the re-arrange were very different. Man and woman sang it together, but then it was changed to rock sound, and the rap part is written by Mr. blistah. The title has "deserted and desolate land" meaning, "i want to go to a world where no guys exists. I want to be free from a guy who betrays me. But the things keep repeating again and again. The shot used monochrome for the first time.

Lay Down: 'Can you handle me? If you can, I'll behave like a doll for you.' Another type of strong woman song. This MV uses backlight. She had to re-do her make-up a couple of times because it didn't look pretty.

Love technique: Cute song and Kuu will be a love teacher blablabla. "By combining your good parts + my bad parts and my good parts + your bad parts, we can create something good." It's about accepting each others faults and loving each other. In the PV, a love-teacher lectures a couple about how to make up after a fight.

All for you: This song is dedicated to her fans. She thought about whether she could retire after marrying but during her Hall Tour this year, she realized that she should continue singing (because she connected so closely with her fans during the tour). She wants to continue singing until her voice withers. The PV contains phrases of fan messages that left an impression on her in a credit roll(?). Fans can check whether their words are included.
