BoA Style - Three Points Earrings
BoA Style - Three Points Earrings
(17)Our Price: US$13.99List: US$18.99Save: US$5.00 (26%)Related promotions:September 15, 2010 Bling-bling head turner.Definitely a very unique set of earrings that will send compliments flying your way. As far as I've been wearing them they are rather sturdy, very shiny and well-made. You get everything shown in the pictures; both the diamond earrings and the pair of cross earrings, which go great together if you have multiple ear piercings.
The only problem I have is that the backing piece can be a pain to try and put on through the right hole. May take a few tries to get it fitting well on your lobes, and don't put them on too tight because they'll be rather uncomfortable.

It's very pretty and looks just like the picture. However, for me at least, the cuff hurts my ear after a while and it becomes painful to touch the top of my ear. Maybe it just doesn't fit mine as well as it may fit others, but DON'T let that put you off if you really want this. You only get one side, by the way.

March 3, 2010 Great~!I love it! It's stylish and cool without going over the top, and looks almost exactly like what Onew is wearing in the photo. The only downside is that it's very small-fitted, so I don't recommend you get it unless you wrist is 15.5cm thick or thinner, or be prepared to cut off your blood circulation.

Tegomass no Uta (Normal Edition)(Japan Version)
Tegomass no Uta (Normal Edition)(Japan Version)
(1)Our Price: US$36.75Usually ships within 1 to 2 daysRelated promotions:November 20, 2009 Very sweet and peaceful.Tegomass' beautiful vocals and great harmonizing do not disappoint. Every track is high quality, ranging from upbeat pop tunes like "Tatta Kitotsu Dake" to soulful ballads like "Kataomoi no Chiisana Koi" and "Kushami".
The whole album has a consistence flow from start to end with Tegoshi and Masuda's smooth vocals delivering an album of calming songs that are perfect for relaxing to on a sunny weekend. For those who love upbeat music might find Tegomass no Uta rather lacking, but this is certainly an album for those who lean towards ballads and cheerful pop music more. Standout tracks include the all-time favourites, such as "Kiss ~Kaerimichi no Love Song~" and "Ai Ai Gasa", as well as "Shikisai", which introduces traditional Japanese music to create a short but mesmerizing piece in which Tegomass' harmonization sound absolutely blissful.
Overall, this album is handled with impressive care. With 12 sweet tracks that pop-ballad fans will love, Tegomass no Uta is deserving of a gold star.

depArture (Japan Version)

November 20, 2009 Disappointing.I bought this album with high expectations 'cause I loved AAA's songs, but it's rather disappointing to say that I've sound depArture paling in comparison to their previous albums.
The "introduction" is an interesting way of opening up the album with an announcer informing us about the take off. "MUSIC!!!", "Jamboree!!" and "Wonderful Girls" are up-beat tracks which are easily enjoyable by those who love cheerful pop music. "a piece of my word" and "Deai no Chikara III", which continues the running series of duets by leads Nishijima and Uno, find their place as calming ballads on this album while "ZERO" is the golden track being a strong, haunting rock piece.
A good standout are the photos of each member, in which of of them look stunning. Overall, the whole album is pretty forgettable, aside from "ZERO" which is my favourite as a brilliant electronic-rock song that stands out from the rest of the bland songs on this album. If you're keen on getting this, then I suggest getting the Hong Kong version instead because it comes with bonus videos and is MUCH better value than the regular Japanese edition.

January 30, 2009 A change to a slower pace.This album has more ballad-esque and slow songs compared to NEWS's last album, 'pacific'.
It picks up with the energetic and up-beat "weeeek" and continues to "STARDUST" which has somewhat an anime-esque tune to it. "Summer Time" is a cute and sweet song about summer, but then it goes directly to the wintry "SNOW EXPRESS", which I found a bit dull and boring, but still good for an occasional listen. The next track, "Forever", would have to be the best on the album--a lovely ballad-esque song with mild R & B style to it (I absolutely love the guitar or whatever-it-is chords throughout the song).
Yamapi's "MOLA" is in English, but his pronunciation has me wanting to laugh instead of actually enjoying the song (I'm sorry, Yamapi fans). It would be a nice song with those who like a slow, pop song if they could ignore the lyrics.
The ballads continue with "Kesenai", which Tegoshi leads. A relaxing song, but personally I prefer "Ai Nante" better as a song with the vocal same pattern (Tegoshi -> Kato -> Nishikido). In "ordinary" Nishikido's vocals improve compared to his last solo, but the song is quite out of place on the album (or am I just being biased again?).
"Minna ga Iru Sekai wo Hitotsu ni Ai wo Motto Give & Take Shimashou", or "the song with the very long name", is an up-beat song which brings the tempo up again. Following it is "Murarisuto", a song by Koyashige which is very similar to "Chirarizumu" from 'pacific', but with huskier vocals. The tension calms again with "Taiyou no Namida", a catchy and emotional song, but picks up with "Smile Maker". The album ends with "Happy Birthday" and "FLY AGAIN", both slow and relaxing pop songs. The bonus track "Towa Iro no Namida" is a bit forgettable.
This album is quite calming and good for listening to while relaxing at home. A bit easier to get sick of compared to NEWS's last album, but still a good buy for fans and those who like pop-ballads.

January 30, 2009 Nice strong beats.
This album is quite up-beat and energetic in general. Songs like "Ai no Matador", "Sayaendou", and "TEPPEN" are good examples of this. "Hadashi no Cinderella Boy" and "Change the World" provide a more rock-pop mix into the album, while the cheerful "Nantokanarusa" with Masuda's happy voice will instantly cheer you up on a gloomy day.
The more soft and calming tracks would have to be "Kimi Omou Yoru", the lovely "Ai Nante", the smooth "Alibi", and Yamashita's solo, "Gomen ne, Juliet". "Ai Nante" is definitely one of the best tracks on this album as Tegoshi's terrific vocals along with the emotional tune will be unforgettable.
I personally found "Chirarizumu" very entertaining to listen to with Koyama and Shige's comical vocals bringing a silly tone to the album. However, I didn't find "code" all that great, mostly because Nishikido's vocals weren't very steady throughout the song, and would have to be the weak point of this album.
Overall 'pacific' is fantastic lives up to its worth. NEWS has presented us with an excellent album that would not fail their fans.
