Feel My Mind

Feel My Mind (stylized as feel my mind) is the third studio album by the Japanese pop and R&B singer Koda Kumi, released in February 2004. The album charted in the Top 10 on Oricon at No. 7 and stayed on the charts for thirty-five weeks, selling over 147,000 copies. Its corresponding DVD was feel... (not to be confused with her single feel, which came out in January 2006) and was her last album to be released as a CD only without a CD+DVD option. Information Feel my mind is singer-songwriter Koda's third studio album and her last album to carry predominantly R&B tracks, as she produced mainly pop music beginning from her next album, secret, and onward. The album entered the top ten on Oricon at No. 7 and remained on the charts for nearly two months. Feel my mind is credited with jump-starting Kumi's ero-kawaii/sexy-cute image, with which she later became synonymous. This image was cemented with her following album, Secret. However, Kumi later admitted in Koda Reki how she was nervous to take the "sexy-cute" image because she was nervous of disappointing her parents. The limited editions of the album contained the tracks "Yume with You [R. Yamaki's Groove Mix]" – the original edition was released on her single "Crazy 4 U" and "Cutie Honey", which was later released on the single "Love & Honey". "Yume with You" was a cover of the Toshinobu Kubota song of the same title, initially released in 1993. Kumi, along with a large group of avex artists, later recorded and released a song in honor of Kubota's death in 2014, titled "Ashite Waratte Irareru Youni" (明日笑っていられるように / Laughing Towards Tomorrow).
