Информация
[ редактировать ]Луна -японский певец-автор песен Куми Кода «Созданный сингл». Он составил вмещение на второе место в еженедельных чартах одиночных игр Oricon и оставался на чартах в течение девятнадцати недель.
The single became Kumi's first to be released after the controversy in late January of that same year. On January 30, Kumi made an inflammatory statement on All Night Nippon when asked about whether or not she wanted her then-manager to have children, whereas her manager had just gotten married. She had responded, "When women turn 35, their amniotic fluid goes rotten, so I hope they have a child before then."[3][4] Ее веб -сайт был закрыт с письмом от Куми, опубликованным на странице, извинившись за ее замечание. Из -за противоречия было предположено, что любые следующие синглы не будут хорошо сочетать, если она решит продолжать выпускать музыку.
Kumi had gone to say how the song's lyrics and overall tone were written as an apology and to reflect how much she had regretted the statement.
The single continued on with the theme of releasing a summer single with four songs, following "4 Hot Wave" (2006) and "Freaky" (2007). However, although the single carried four different musical tracks, it was only a double A-side with music videos only being released for "Moon Crying" and "That Ain't Cool".
For "Moon Crying", Kumi worked closely with musical composer h-wonder. The two had worked together several times in the past, beginning with her debut single Take Back in 2000.
"That Ain't Cool" featured American singer-songwriter Fergie from the hip hop/pop group Black Eyed Peas. Although both Kumi and Fergie were listed as the writers for the song, the song was mainly written by Fergie, who presented the song as a gift to Kumi upon meeting the artist.[5]
Moon is certified Gold by RIAJ for shipment of 100,000 copies. It is her last single to pass the 100,000 mark in Oricon sales to date. Moon Crying was certified triple platinum for 750,000 downloads in January 2014.[6]
Promotional Advertisements
[edit]"Moon Crying" was used as the theme song for the TV Asahi drama Puzzle (パズル / PAZURU).[7]
"Lady Go!" was used as the promotional song for KOSE's "Glamorous Hunter" under the Visée line.[8][9]

Post Controversy and KODA REKI
[edit]"It’s scary to talk in front of people. It’s scary to stand on stage. I want to quit being Koda Kumi."
— Koda Kumi, KODA REKI
In KODA REKI, Kumi's published biography, she said how she still cries when she thinks about the comment on All Night Nippon and hurting "many Japanese women." She goes on to say how it was that moment in her career when she realized how immature and unprofessional she was, not realizing how many people listened to her words due to her fame. She admitted how she had cancelled several rehearsals for Kingdom's corresponding tour, Live Tour 2008 ~Kingdom~, due to the severe anxiety she would get when she believed that she would walk out onto the stage to perform, only to have an empty arena.[10]
Music videos
[edit]"Moon Crying" carried a very somber tone about missing a deceased loved one and not knowing how to move on. In the video, Kumi's departed lover comes to her as a spirit, trying to tell her it's okay to move on. She becomes angry, but ultimately accepts his death.
"That Ain't Cool feat. Fergie" was directed by music video director and choreographer Fatima Robinson and was shot in Atlanta, Georgia. It premiered on MTV Japan on May 29, 2008, and carried a theme of two women (played by Kumi and Fergie) finding out that their lovers had been cheating on them.
An "album version" was placed on Kumi's seventh studio album, Trick, and featured a complete story line with Kumi and Fergie seeking retribution on the man that had been dating both of them without either woman realizing.
