Feel My Mind (stylized as feel my mind) is the third studio album released by Japanese R&B-turned-pop singer Koda Kumi, released in February 2004. The album charted in the Top 10 on Oricon at #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.
feel my mind is singer-songwriter Kumi Koda's third studio album and last album to carry predominately R&B tracks, whereas she transitioned to producing mainly pop music beginning from her next album, secret, and onward. The album managed to chart within the top ten on Oricon at #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, which she would later become synonymous with. This image would be cemented with her following album, secret. However, Kumi had later admitted in Koda Reki (stylized at KODA REKI) how she was nervous to don 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 previously 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 Toshinobu Kubota song of the same title, initially released in 1993. Kumi, along with a large group of avex artists, would later record and release a song in honor of Kubota's passing in 2014, titled Ashite Waratte Irareru Youni (明日笑っていられるように / Laughing Towards Tomorrow).
