i love what i'm hearing from the previews.
Warning sounds perfect.. the ballads.. i prefer Story than The Gift, but everything might change after i'm hearing the real thing. so still waiting for the album to come out first.

Loving Out of Control and Story the best so far, only Warning is not my thing and I'm not sure about Show must go on, the rest is good despite the low quality.

Warning and Show Must Go On really stand out to me~

I really want the special TA box set but I don't have any money. I wish I could put one on hold for when I do. >.<

The attitude that Warning has is amazing. From what I understand lyrically, it seems a bit Microphone-y. AT15 Warning will be incredible if she sticks it in the setlist.

I am... kind of praying that she rerecords Last minute with her band.

The only song that sticks out is The GIFT. If I were Ayu, I would be crying over having to sing such a horrible fucking tune. It sounds like shit, and that's after spraying a fuck ton of audio Febreze on it. I seriously would've been like, "OH! Is this beloved?" No, Ayu, it's a new song. "But it sounds like curtain call..." No, Ayu, it's a new song. "But remember when I did JEWEL?!" No, Ayu, it's a new song. No, it fucking isn't. Seriously, who gives that as a fucking gift? If someone came up to me and said, "I wrote The GIFT for you, it's a gift, I want you to sing it," I would probably be like, "Oh, thank you, but could you just, you know, fuck me in the ass without any lube?" Because I would be a bit insulted. I mean, what am I supposed to do with the sheet music for The GIFT? I could wipe my ass with it, but I would feel like I was bullying my asshole. Serious. What. Do. You. Do. With. The GIFT?

EDIT:
"See, I did this song before though, it's called Wishing...?"
No, Ayu, this is a new song.
"But I did this better with teddy bear."
No, Ayu, this is a new song.
"Are you sure this isn't that who... remix I did?"
No, Ayu, this is a new song.
"It sounds like forgiveness (acoustic mix)."
No, Ayu, this is a new song.
"Or Carols without any rock instruments."
No, Ayu, this is a new song.
"Ok, ok... Are you sure this isn't Sunset ~LOVE is ALL~?"
No, Ayu, this is a new song.
"meaning of Love? how beautiful you are?"
But it's a new song, Ayu.

^ lmfao.
"I found the demo of sweet scar!"
No, Ayu, this is a new song.
"But it sounds like walk, I sang it recently didn't I?"
No, Ayu, this is a new song.
"BUT LOOK, isn't this pray?"
No, Ayu, this is a new song.
"I still think it's beloved."

The Gift is probably better in full.

I thought this site was defunct? Oh well, here I am!

And does anyone think the first couple notes of no future sound like Trauma?

Previews sound okay, better than Colors and whatever the album was before that. Love songs was the last good album for me, so I hope home girl brings it back (though the Zutto single is good).

Colours is really good imo. It shows 'another side' of Ayu, but albums like Love songs and now A ONE are more in line with everything Ayu did from ASFXX to about Secret.

so how many PVs are we getting? Zutto, Last Minute, The Gift probably and something else? or just the 3?

(check the first page)

^^ We're getting Zutto..., Last Minute (picture she posted with her red nails), The gift with JJ and another one with the picture of 60 people dressed in bdsm-like costumes and the rock band!

I ended up listening to the other previews!! Ughhh LOL Anyway, i fell inlove with Story!! That's Ayu in your face type of song IMO!!

I listened to the previews again as well with headphones just to hear it a bit better and I'm really excited for Story myself. I'm really liking those sparkly sounds and bells going on (Don't know how else to describe it lol).

Story is beautiful. I've been so sick of her ballads lately but that one is the kind of Ayu ballad that I love and will never get tired of <3

That one is most likely Warning.

Or show must go on ;)

That is true. Both seem like they fit that PV's image...

I read on Twitter that Ayu said at the event that Show must go on is apparently the "theme song" for the upcoming tour.

I still think the PV is probably for Warning tho.

I can barely hear anything from the preview. How can people already judge the album quality by these crap quality????!
