sneak peek? *updated shows*
here’s a song i’m working on! the chorus is my favorite part, but i’m keeping that part a secret :)
i don’t know how many of you have been noticing what’s going on on youtube lately, but a lot of BIG youtubers are being suspended from the site… esmee denters, lisa lavie, rin on the rox, phattfat. rumor has it this is because they are posting covers…. which most everyone on youtube does… but it looks like they might finally be cracking down on this. you would think they’d give some kind of official warning before taking down your page… but it’s not looking like that’s happening. i’m scared!!
i’ve been sick this week, but i think it’s finally going away :)

oovret: Week 43
Are you receiving a tax refund this year?
hmm. i don’t know. i do know that most of the money i own will be paying my taxes :) woo.
How did you celebrate ?(pi) day? i believe by going through taxes and quickbooks with my dad.
What is your favorite pie? to be honest, i haven’t had enough pies in my day. when i was little, i was really into lemon meringue pies, and by really into, i mean i probably had it twice. i enjoy a good apple pie so long as it is accompanied by ice cream. i like homemade pumpkin pie… i imagine i’d like some sort of cocount creme pie. or… i want pie!
Do you enjoy listening to Kelly Clarkson? haven’t spent a ton of time with her albums but i LOVE her voice and i think she is ridiculously talented. it’s slightly depressing what she can do.
How often do you wash your car?
oh you know… never. i wash it after 4 or more times of either my mom or david choi being appalled at the fact that it hasn’t been washed since the last time they saw me. or when i’ve parked under a highly-bird-populated tree.

Cool thank you.
March 18, 2009
ok now i´m not able to rest before i hear the whole song… thanks a lot kina!
lol ;-P
March 18, 2009
the new song is sounding great already!
can’t wait for the whole thing.
(well, i mean, i can…)
hope your lungs have regrown!
:)

Oovret, who are you? Your questions are really interesting. Are you on the street team?
March 18, 2009
I like it ;)
March 18, 2009
The sneak peak was awesome. Can’t wait to hear the whole song. And I’m glad your feeling better. Just take care of yourself. We or at least me, need Kina in my life. You have become an addiction of mine, lol.
Oh, and I hope they don’t suspend your account. I mean, aren’t songs made to be sang. I don’t see why the would suspend a youtube account just because your singing someone elses song. At least people are putting on the title that it’s a cover and in some cases who sings it. I don’t know, but I just hope they don’t suspend your account.
Ok, well, great to see you again.
Sending you a great big internet hug.

Sneak previews are fun, sharing with us is awesome, whether it is full songs, partial songs, stories about songs or just a “hi there, folks” vid, so thanx!
Also, breathing is sort of a minimal requirement, so do get well. Take good care of yourself.
oh, scary thought!! Maybe we need to find a way to preserve all those precious covers that have been our friends for so long . . . How can we be expected to go on without them? Does anyone have a suggestion?
What else? Please, oh please somebody record Hotel Cafe! Love to meet/hear the cellist on your CD!
March 18, 2009
I guess he/she is not in from the states (or from the states, but works in a night shift :D) But maybe Misa could tell you more based on his/her IP address.

@Kinafan: My brother has a software that grabs any video from youtube and converts it to an mpeg4 and then you can save it to your computer. I have a program that records anything coming out of my speakers and I’ve recorded some of Kina’s covers to listen to them in my car. So there’s definitely a way to keep those memories of Kina incase the remove her videos or suspend her account.
March 18, 2009
I should have clicked reply to your message. instead I created a whole new message to respond to your message. Sorry.
March 18, 2009
Do we want to know? Is part of Oovret’s appeal in the mystery? Or will it be like the Wizard of Oz if we peel back the curtain? Hmmmm . . .
March 18, 2009
I’m guessing that only people who use copyrighted recordings in their videos (e.g., singing over the original recording) are getting suspended. If you do all of the music yourself, you should be OK. Apparently there is a horrible lack of communication from YouTube. Google is a huge company, they can and should do a lot better than this. Cross your fingers that Kina doesn’t have any problems!
March 18, 2009
great sneak peak :)
It is scary about the YT accounts being suspended! I don’t know WHAT I would do if yours got suspended. Someone mentioned this before, but I can’t recall who, maybe you can make a second account with all of your covers, and keep this one for your originals!
March 18, 2009
thanks for the short video this week kina! the dancing strips of paper were fun.
good luck with your shows this week!
March 18, 2009
ugh! kina….what a tease that was! but i guess that was the point wasnt it? lol i can’t wait to hear the finished song. i hope you’re feeling 200% better for your shows this week. take care

I didn’t say Misa should go public with that info ;)

“[oovret is] the Unofficial Weekly Kina Interview. To ask the questions that wouldn’t make it very far on tervoo.
As a service to the bla(h)g community [oovret asks] questions that many would not have on their minds, yet can produce an answer that is interesting to hear.”
Thank you. We work hard to think of new questions every week. Feel free to use any of them to expand your dossiers.
It is highly likely that oovret contributors are part of the street team. Although, I do not have a list of street team members. Nor will I identify oovret team members.
March 18, 2009
Interesting detective work asdf.
I don’t believe Misa would use her powers for evil.
March 18, 2009
I’ll take what I can get. Hope you’re feeling better and that your YT stays intact.
March 18, 2009
Looks like all of those suspended YT accounts Kina listed are up right now. Maybe it was just a misunderstanding that has been cleared up?!?!?
March 18, 2009
Awesome song, Kina. I hope you’ll be playing it on Saturday. I want to hear the whole thing!
Man, I’d be so angry if they suspended my YouTube account for posting concert footage of Kina.
March 18, 2009
yay.
kina is coming to seattle :)
March 18, 2009
@oovret
you are awesome! your questions rule!
March 18, 2009
kina, can’t wait to hear the rest of the song!!!
shame you won’t be making the trip to Vancouver this time around, but hope to see you in the future! :)
it’s not just Kelly Clarkson, it’s scary how talented YOU are!!
Good luck on your 2 shows with David and Jane :)
March 18, 2009
Way to be, oovret!!! Don’t spoil the mystery!! But now we know you are more than one person. Or a master ofdeception and misdirection. Drat!! Oh, well!!
March 18, 2009
On the other hand, Julia Nunes got a gig opening for Ben Folds because she covered a song of his. No useful blade I know has but one edge. Though I guess you are half-Japanese…anyway, moral of the story: Only cover cool people :)
feel better little one
March 18, 2009
Songs is awesome!
Keep up the good work!
March 19, 2009
just one hawai’i show… pleeeeease
March 19, 2009
The sneak peak makes me feel like being on the beach, so calming…
Hope Youtube won’t be too severe about the covers, i don’t even see where is the harm but anyway ^^
You made me a Trolleywood addict… xD And i’m listening your cover of “say” again & again for 3 days, it makes a lot ^^
hum, i don’t know if you’re gonna like it, but I totally <3 it http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewProfile&friendID=123057029
J’espere que tu ne tomberas plus malade avant longtemps ^^ et continue ainsi!! <3
=p ( I really don’t know what to say xD )

The good old days putting @
March 19, 2009
I’m so bummed – I’m from SD but i’m leaving shortly to go on vacation so I won’t be able to see ya. But have an awesome show at Lestats – it’s a super small intimate venue and I’m extremely jealous of everyone that’s gonna be there. Come back to SD again soon!!!
March 19, 2009
So would we, Rhondi! You captured some precious moments for us, and it brought a lot of pleasure for us when we saw them! Have fun at the show!!
March 19, 2009
Glad that your feeling better!! The sneak peek was great, I can’t wait to hear the whole song!! Keep on Keepin’ on…Bless
March 20, 2009
If that youtube thing is why you say it is, it’s your fault and people like you! Do you know why? Because you have covers better than the originals :D (Disturbia and Let Go for example. I simply love those covers!). keep covering cause last time i checked that isn’t a crime!
kisses!
March 21, 2009
I love!! its like a sweet melody,dancing into my ears i can’t wait for the whole song!!!
take care of your lungs (sounds weird to say that!!) Take care of you (its better)
REenjoy the REhotel cafe say hi to DAVID and JANE for me.
bye bye !!
PS big hug to the best family !!! first letter G ;)

oovret: Week 44
What did you cook for your family, the other night?
How often do you do laundry?
Did you have pie this week?
Do you enjoy listening to Carrie Underwood?
How can I get mama g off my case?
March 22, 2009
hmmm… now wondering, who’s case is mama g on?? i know some.
March 22, 2009
I’m guessing that you are throwing us a red herring. I think you’re one person and I say phooey to this obfuscation!! (Just between you and me, can I bribe you with something to find out your identity? Shhhhhhhhhh)
March 22, 2009
Have you ever heard of To write love on her arms? its a super cool organization. they use music with their messages of healing and hope. check it out at TWLOHA.com if you havent heard of it.
March 23, 2009
hmmm. I’m trying to remember where I’ve heard some of the terminology used in oovret’s response here. Something familiar about it, but I just can’t place it. It’s shown up on kg.com before, I am sure. Anyway, I still believe oovert is a master of deception and misdirection. Maybe one day we will know more about oovret. Until then, the questions are very interesting!
March 23, 2009
Monday! Blog day! Get on your horse woman!
Ahem…sweet Kina, since today is the traditional day when you generously give some of your time to brightne our days free of charge, may I just say that I eagerly await the new post, at your convenience, of course :)
March 23, 2009

March 24, 2009
