BEST -first things- [CD+DVD] Customer Reviews

BEST ~first things~ was a great album! Starting with an unreleased song, NO TRICKS, to get you in the right mood and then every A-Side from TAKE BACK to Crazy 4 U from Cutie Honey to Promise/Star. A must get if you like J-Pop!

This is an amazing compilation of all the singles released up until Promise-Star from Koda Kumi. It's all arranged in the order of release. I would have payed any price for this album. Literally every track I listened to blew me away. You can really notice and see how Kuu's music has evolved over a span of 5 years. This Best album chronicles everything so don't miss out. It's a must buy for any Kuu fan. Also, it's a big way of saving money if you don't feel like spending a lot of money getting each single separately. What's even better about this album is that it comes with a DVD with every PV of every single on this album with the exception of songs like Flower and Star.

I'm not a real Ku fan but this Best Of collection by her is great. I fell in love with the song Real Emotion like a lot of poeple did from the first time I heard the english version of it on the game Final Fantasy X-2. Ku has a unique voice that speaks to the listener in a way only the truly talented can do, however I'm not a fan of erokawai and other than this collection I havn't been able to bring myself to buy a single Ku album. Instead I prefer to downlaod the select few songs that I like from online. This collection holds the most Ku songs that I've been able to get into on a single cd ever. I never get tired of listening to songs like Color Of Soul, Maze, Crazy For You, Real Emotion, Kiseki, and Promise. If your more a fan of songs like these and not songs like Juicy than this album is the best investment in Ku you could make.

Kumi Koda's first 'best of' album is all it's cracked up to be and more, a great place to start if you're a new fan who has either never heard any of her songs or has only heard a couple, or for her most devoted fans it's a must have, either way, you gotta get this album

Kumi's first best-of consists of all singles up to this point and that alone makes it a must-have item. It's a great journey from her very beginnings back in 2000 up to 2005 which makes you realize how much she has improved in these years. Highly recommened!

This is... i have no words to describe this album , totally awesome, "crazy 4 u", is enough reason to buy it. Love KU :P.-

Well guys...i think all you think it's clearly correct. Me, as all of u around the world, i'm a kumi-fan. I love her !! her music, her videos, her style...everything !! But...there are 2 things missing on that DVD... 2 PV's were not included in the tracklist and that breaks my heart...=( "Trust You" and "Shake It" are missing !! and they appeared on the DVD special mix bonus... The material is pretty cool, though. I still love her =)

This truly is Ku's best! Wonderful, beautiful melodies w/ wonderful pvs! Every bit worth the money! Ku's talent is astonishing and if you're a Ku fan and you haven't gotten this yet, it's truly a must-have so get it before it's gone for good! This album is also a WONDERFUL first impression for first-time Ku listeners. Truly recommended! 5 stars!

This 2 CDs contains all Kumi singles, from ''Take Back'' to ''Stars'', is really complete and all the songs are excellent, the main style is R&B but you can find in this album catchy pop songs such ''Cutie Honey'' and Butterfly'', a little bit of rock with the wonderful tracks ''Love Across The Ocean'' and ''Selfish'' and really beautiful ballads such ''Gentle Words'', '' 1000noKotoba'', ''Kiseki'', ''Hands'', ''Flower'' and ''Promise''. The DVD contains all her PVs of these songs. I reccomend this great and complete collection even if you are not a great Kumi fan, you will not be disappoint !

This album was my all time favorite of 2005. It came with my favorite songstresses BEST tunes. All the tracks on the 2 disk album were simply amazing in hi quality sound blasting through the speakers in my radio. It was amazing. The dvd contains 18 of Kumi's pv's each beautifully done. Especially Kiseki. This is THE ALL TIME BEST ALBUM AROUND. You will never find another album better than this. (Unless... Kumi chan releases ANOTHER one.. with all these tracks plus many more in the furture. lol) Great buy. Glad I got it, It was first press. Special mix video included with special photo booklet and if you were lucky a poster / postcard too.

Wel, this is the first time I heard Kumi Koda, and I fell in love with it..... her dance moves are to die for, let alone her husky voice!!

Perfect for those just getting into koda now, or for those who have always loved her. All of her early singles and PVs in one collection. A great buy.

I think this item is one of the best releases from Kumi Koda, the cd and dvd include all of her singles up to Promise, you will save your money because you won't need to buy "7 Spirits" and "feel..." dvds, you will find all of her videos here, buy and save ^_^

The songs are amazing, and its an amazing deal too -- if you have any interest in Kumi, or in funky dance pop, you should definately give first things a listen. I don't think you'll be dissapointed!

If you're new to Ku, then you should buy this, her first BEST album. You get to listen to her old songs from her old singles as well as some of her newer singles such as Hot Stuff and Selfish. This is a good way to listen how much she has improved vocally. This also comes with a DVD with ALL of her PVs from the singles she has released. It's really fun to watch them, sing along, and dance along to. ^ ^
