NUDY SHOW ! is Anna Tsuchiya's upcoming 3rd new album [I count ANNA TSUCHIYA inspi' NANA (BLACK STONES) as her 2nd album] . This is going to be released next month on the 29th in Japan .
The tracklist have just been announced alongside with the DVD contents via Anna's official site . Out of 17 tracks , 6 singles (from her 4th single Kuroi Namida to her recent single Virgin Cat) & 1 of the 2 B-sides from her 7th single cocoon ala u are included in NUDY SHOW ! which means to say that there will be a generous mix of 9 new songs (overture not included) that are included in the lineup for NUDY SHOW ! .
1st of all , covers wise , they're really colourful I must add unlike the covers for her debut album strip me ? . When I 1st heard of the album title NUDY SHOW ! , I was expecting something worst but thankfully they're pretty good in a weird manner .
Next , the tracklist . Singles wise , the 1st thing that came to my attention was the ～deep sadness version～ of Kuroi Namida which surprised me because this's 1 of my fave rearrangements of Anna's songs & this can be found in the Kuroi Namida single as track 4 & I'm so happy that she has included this version as it never fails to blow me away whenever I listen to it .
& I see a ～NUDY SHOW ! version～ of her 7th single cocoon which probably going to sound interesting judging from the rearrangement title alone .
In a way I thought it will be better if she were to exclude Kuroi Namida & LUCY since these songs are already included in ANNA TSUCHIYA inspi' NANA (BLACK STONES) but I suppose since she has included the ～deep sadness version～ of Kuroi Namida in the mix , I can let Anna off the hook & I adore LUCY a lot as well .
However , I'm really bummed that she has excluded sweet sweet song (the 2nd A-side single from her 6th single BUBBLE TRIP / sweet sweet song) & also the B-side of Virgin Cat ala Imitation night as this's 1 of the best B-sides that Anna has put out since the start of her solo career .
Non singles wise , some of the song titles are just weird & I thought Virgin Cat & cocoon are up there but the 1st thing that caught my attention was the 1st song which's Cockroach LOL .
Honestly in a way , I can't wait to hear how masquerade , BLOOD ON BLOOD & Shape of your love sounds like . Shape of your love sounds like it's going to be a ballad judging from the song title itself .
Frankly I'm surprised that the no. of non singles that Anna has included in NUDY SHOW ! is quite good especially since the non singles outnumber the singles . If you exclude u , you have 9 new songs in which I suspect 1 or some or none might be an interlude/intro or so but I could be wrong about it .
Let's hope that the non singles will be on par if not be more superior than the singles since I love all the singles that she has put out since her debut & I'm actually looking forward to hear the new material in NUDY SHOW ! . I do hope that NUDY SHOW ! is not going to be another straight up full rock album like her 1st 2 albums & her Taste My Beat EP .
DVD wise , looks like the video of Virgin Cat's included & that's practically the answer as to why Virgin Cat was released only in a CD only format like her 1st 2 singles . Her subsequent singles that she put out after that were released in CD only and CD + DVD formatting & like what I said before , I'm quite sad that she didn't include the video of sweet sweet song . At most she should have included it in !
With that said , I so can't wait for NUDY SHOW ! to be released in due time . Anna's 1 of my fave artistes & I like the fact that she's an individual in her own right .

# My music blog consists of JPop/Rock singles & albums reviews that I put my heart , efforts & soul into writing them as I'm disgusted with the way that JPop/Rock music is being treated/written/reviewed in Singapore so to the local media (yes you TEENS , Teenage Magazine & The Strait Times) , screw you all . I basically can write better JPop/Rock reviews , period
