Does anyone know anything about her or BeForU? Id like to get her solo album or the BeForU album. Anyways, discuss, opinions and all.

P.S. This is kinda wierd because I actually live in Japan, I should probably know whats going on, but I dont. I thought you guys could help me out with what theyre up to nowadays.

There links to the BeForU page and the Riyu site. BeForU is technically 3 people now because Shiyuna quit. Noria has alot of songs on IIDX and Pop'n Music, and is actually becoming decent under Taka. I love my BeForU album, the Riyu and and Noria songs are the best on the album. Riyu also has a new album coming out that includes song her doing some version of Crash!

ahh, thats what I was wanting to know. I didnt know if the BeForU album was any good. Its might expensive here, and id like to know if its actually worth it before I slap down $25.

Oh yes, you definitely want to buy the BeForU CD! I'm also getting Riyu Kosaka's CD 'begin' when it comes out June 11th!

Here's the list of songs they're planning to put on it:

01. Begin
02. VICTORY!
03. LIFELESS
04. Remember You
05. SPEEDY (new tune for album)
06. Glacial [YES!!! I LOVE THAT SONG!!! FINALLY!!!]
07. Kiss Me
08. WHITE SEASON
09. DIVE TO THE NIGHT (TERRA WORKS REMIX)
10. CANDY -heart-
11. Don't Stop the Music!
12. Sweetie (new tune for album)
13. Song for You (new tune for album)
14. *Shining* (unplugged version) [THAT ought to be interesting...

]

Getting back to the BeForU album, I LOVE Shooting Star! That is such a great song! And I love Shining, and Tears, and Firefly, and basically just the whole damn album! I LOVE BEFORU!!!

And also, why did Maehara-san quit? She was my favorite!

I guess that's to be expected, though, since every other member got their own spot light and she never got to do her own song... now I don't know if that was by choice or not, but I was kinda hoping she'd get her own song some day... I'm also patiently waiting for my second favorite, Komatsu-san, to do another song because Ever Snow kicks major buttocks and it sucks that they didn't put it on the BeForU album...

Also, on Love Love Sugar, is Shiraishi-san saying, "I likeyoulikeyoulikeyou so much"? I think that's what she's saying, but I can't tell.

Another thing, even with headphones, I can't tell what she's saying in 'Silvia Drive'! I'm not trying to insult her or anything, but she really needs to work on her English... then again, for that matter, I need to work on my Japanese!

Also counting down the days 'til Des-Row's CD comes out!!! Me big Des-Row fan!!!

And because all of you are so nice, I'll give you a nice pic of Kosaka-chan. (The real one, not me.)

What happened to Crash! ?
EDIT: http://www.konamistyle.com/customfactory/riyu_1st/index.html
Appears they heavily edited the track list, they also took off Cant Stop Falling in Love

Geez, if I had the money, I would snatch those albums right up. Does anyone know if they sample their album-only songs free anywhere on the net?
