Comments unhappy, do not know how this singer named Koda Kumi is one of the most important and talented singers Jpop, think before judging, we should get to know! is not she who sang badly, it's the music that sucks!
venus hum is better but she is trying! you can tell she doesn't really know the song, and this is certainly not her kind of music. But she is trying and she does have a nice voice. just not for this song.
Given this is performed in Tokyo, I imagine she's a f'real *asian* asian and not just some chick with pointy eyes, so I bet she's having some trouble pronouncing English words. Lots of Rs where go Ls, etc.
I hope her out of tune singing is only caused by illnes or not being able to hear herself in the monitors well. She seems to have a good voice but in this performance she is out of tune.
This is my third favourite version of the song. X3 Right after the original and the one from Koda Kumi's Black Cherry Tour 2007: Special Final in Tokyo Dome. :3
@thesnowdens You can't judge a person by one song. Considering she hardly knows English, Koda Kumi did an outstanding job. I think the one where they performed at hr concert was better (vocally). And she has one helluva range if you listen to her other songs. Kiseki, Crazy 4 U, Hot Stuff feat. KM-MARKIT, Yume no Uta are some of her best songs.
There is a reason she tops charts in Japan and Taiwan. Please do more research on an artist before saying insulting things.
@thesnowdens Don't smart off. I didn't say anything insulting, only that you should give an artist a chance before you judge them. There are countless artists that don't sound as nice when they're out of their element.
OMFG! WTF Was that! My karaoke is better than her stage performance. Holy god! Who told this girl she could perform for a mass audience? I don't even know if she's good enuff for a lounge act. Yeah, she is a great cheerleader and knows how to jump. Someone please fire her from all future performances and save the Blue Man Group their hearing. I'm sure their ears were bleeding.
Not trying to be an ass but, FYI, Venus Hum is the name of Anette's band (LilJimmyNordin knows best)... Yeah, I know that in the "Rock Complex Tour" DVD the rock movement says "bringing out Venus Hum" but they we're opening for Blue Man Group so I think that they did that to let people know who she was...
The first time I heard this, it was Venus Hum. That sorta makes me lean more towards miss Hum. This Kumi girl looks good yeah, She sounds alright too.
It's just not her song, you know? Like, she sang it fine. But it isn't HER song. Venus made it HER song. Kumi here sorta didn't catch it the same way. Maybe it was because Venus Hum looked like she felt at the peak of her life. Hum LOOKED like she was in love. Kumi here doesn't seem to give that vibe.
