I need some mid tempo music right now. I'm in the mood

first world problem when Ayu's release approaching the actual date release :thud

So...where is gloria?

:( leak already.

I bought the disc. Now just give it to me @.@ in digital form ><

It's like a SIRIUS/XM/satellite radio, I think, but it's cable radio.

More on it here. (Wow that article is 20 years old...)

It tends to be used in shops/restaurants/and so on, but I think it's for personal use too.

Sad I can't buy the album right now. Hopefully I can get it as a present for Valentine's Day... Gloria, petal, and untitled for her... story 2 are my faves right now. glasses is cool. Too bad it's just a interlude.

*sigh* That font is terrible. It makes the album look a little fan-made, lol.

there seems to be a TON of billboards.

Leak!

want leak so bad!!!

Noce to see some promotions! Cant wait for the leaks hehe

YAY! PROMO! PROMO!

Oh cool, shibuya crossing is all ayu haha.

I wish they would've put her on 109! or even like a craaaazy display on the building with Starbucks like when Koda released her first best album.

http://pds.exblog.jp/pds/1/200509/14...3_11313990.jpg

Would've been grand. haha

^totally i think they should have taken over the 109 building for this ocasion at least.

^
Maybe if she release A BEST 3 =) This album isn't even marketed as 15th anniversary :/

Recent leak dates:

Rock 'n' Roll Circus - 6th April 2010 (official release: 14th April 2010).

So, we should get it on the 4th or the 5th maybe?

They will probably leak it on the 5th (like again).

it looks as if the billboards were made in Paint, God :no

People you pay too much importance to appearances lol

Thank you! :) This is really cool.

^^ and its not like we are even there to look at the actual guilty of the billboard.
We have resized snap shots.

I want a leak :cry

I saw someone on baidu saying that we'll get it on Monday? I hope so...

Monday who's time?
Japan?

hmmm i somehow would think that new material should get more spotlight than "best of" .... but that's just me i guess. =|

^
Yes but BEST OF & Japan it's something XD

hope so!

I'm on that emotion binge
I need untitled 2.

I'll be so grateful if it would come on Monday. hope no one trolls ><

It feels like I'm always checking this site now, waiting for this album to leak. I keep listening to the previews and I need the full versions!

+1 :love

havent heard a single track of LOVE again since 2 days ago. >< waiting to be blown away hahaha
this wait is really insane gosh

from ayu's fb :D

billboards AND a truck?!
Man they went ALL out for this, didn't they!

They only need some tv performances, and it will be really good

oh my goodness, the font!

Otherwise, lovely.

I hope you're being sarcastic :D There are loads of trucks like that promoting a bunch of different things all over Shibuya and pretty much in all the other Tokyo areas as well. avex's promo has been so "in the box" for years now...

^
Yeah I agree ! I think it's the minimum they can do it's not an extreme promotion at all...

I want leak now!!:(

i'm sure we'll et somethign in a couple of days, it's still pretty early *shrugs*

YAY TRUCK!!!

yes, i was joking.
they need to do more.

I need THE leak now.

btw could someone rip and upload these?

ZOMGGGGGGG
maybe i should wait for the entire leak to enjoy all 5 songs gosh. i hope its coming. It's technically Monday on my side already

leaks finally!!!!!!!

OMG!!!!!!! SAKURA is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SAKURA's password is jolinisdied!!! and Bye-bye darling's is binqibu.

SAKURA:
OMG THE OPENING IS BEAUTIFUL :D im so mesmerised by her voice T.T
the key keeps changing from verse to chorus (i think)
the verses feel very nostalgic to me. this song needs a PV argh!!!!
the harmonizing is so amazing at the ending!!!

Bye-bye darling:
OMG opening is eargasmic. LOVE the sounds in the verses :D
I hear that 90s Ayu melody in the verses too!!! It's awesome.
her vocaloid voice in the second verse really reminds me of LOVEppears days? I dunno why HAHAHA
this song is so fast-paced my heart is racing with it. SAIKOU!!!

yeah XD I got them mixed up!

XD

OK does anyone know a nice & free flv to mp3 converter so I could convert them to something listenable xD

untitled for her 2

thanks for the uploads!!!
I really need this album in my life!

SAKURA is wonderful. It takes me back to her earlier works. Thank you for posting those.

Yeah these have been posted on Oricon bar on baidu and they really hate Jolin there XD

Thanks for the links!

untitled 2...
this song is... a tear-jerker. im so moved :')

Listening to SAKURA now. Kinda boring. (of course I'm the first to complain), lol.

I've been listening to Love Songs on repeat for the past 3 weeks everyday and I was hoping this would be similar. Well I will let them sink in once they all leak. The end is really nice of SAKURA.

i dont know how I feel abut untitled part 2.
its almost on the verge of boring, but... not...

WOW Bye-bye darling :love :love :love

Bye-bye darling's verses are really great, but the chorus is just not very "thrilling".

[QUOTE=macmaayu;2970832]I guess they really do hate Jolin so much xD

Disappointed in untitled for her... story 2 but that's just one song. Bring on petal!

Your signature is hilarious :roflmao

need.petal.and.Gloria ><

I am happy with SAKURA and Bye-bye darling atm.

Only Sakura wants to load on my phone

Forget what the haters say, I love this song.
It's so sweet and I can imagine playing it when I fall in love. :heart

waaaaah!!!!!
I'm listening now....

SAKURA is reall nice, i love the arrangement, and the use of guitars. It's reall rich. One of those big ballads imo. And also Aty sounds increadibly beautiful. Loved the ending. Could have done without the "lalala's" but it is beautiful!

Bye Bye darling - O_O the guitars in the intro reminded me of MIYAVI's playing lol. I can sense something very familiar in that song from her earlier works. I LOVE IT. It's fighting for the first place together with Wake me up. AWESOME. i love the arangement. I think it might for me be the best up-beat track on the album. :yes

there's somethign wrong with the "unititled for her" lol as soon as the strings hit in i hear....UTADA SINGING FIRST LOVE????can someone please explain thsi to me xD

EDIT: there's not much going on in the "untitled for her.. story 2" but it's nice, tho i am not really impressed. Wasn't impressed with the preview either. however i love her vocals and the last minute of the song. It really gives me "beloved" wibes.

Ayu sounds AMAZING in these!

I died when that comment was made because it's pretty accurate, lol.

i believe sakura to be the best track out of the new so far...
(at least from the previews!!)

Oh my... SAKURA is flawless! What a great song!
I really won't spoil myself, I won't listen to the other ones, only when it leaks on 320 lol anyway, I'm so happy with SAKURA that I don't need anything else!

Wow! Bye-bye darling was nothing like I expected! I like it! I don't think she has ever had a song like this..? Not as I can think of on top of my head. A very good radio song and a very typical anime song. I just think the chorus is repeated a bit too often, makes the song too repetitive. Thats usually what makes me grow tired of songs :(

I'm so tired of ballads right, thus SAKURA is just another snorefest for me :/ Maybe some other time when theres no ballad overkill

Curse this phone
Won't let me do ANYTHING
I wanna hear untitled 2 too...

tudou is troublesome enough on desktops let alone cell phones :P

i dont want to burst you bubble, but I think ASIB has more character, lol.

THANKS!
SAKURA is beautiful!
Masterpiece!

I really like Bye Bye Darling! The verses are very cool!!!!
And I love when Ayu sings happy, danse songs!

Sakura is kinda boring to me xD

I need the lyrics + translation of Bye-bye darling <3

Jesus hold me, Bye bye darling is probably the best thing I've heard this year :blove :blove and I've only heard 1/4 of it because tudou sucks ass (nevertheless thank you so much for sharing :tipsy) SAKURA won me over at the end as well ♥ But like, in BBD, the guitars, the melody, her voice.... gah! :heart

SAKURA MUST have a PV. Is an amazing track. Love this kind of ballads.
Bye-bye darling MUST have a PV. Another amazing track. The pop-rock track for excellence. I think this would have been a perfect CD single like: wake me up/Bye-bye darling.
untitled for her... story 2: wonderful arrangement.

I was waiting for the album pics but... this surprise me.

I'm glad Bye Bye darling is quite surprising! The verses are way better than the choruses! The intro is great too. I wish it was longer.

As for Sakura and untitled, they are two nice songs... we already heard a thousand times.

The petal preview is AMAZING!!!!!!

WOW at Bye Bye darling, i was not expecting that! I love how she's having so many "anime" sounding songs lately, it suits her.

SAKURA is nice, but didn't really grab me.. i loved it from the preview but it's in the "Melody, Beloved, Meaning Of Love" category for me so far. A little boring.

Untitled Part 2 is absolutely beautiful though, i nearly started crying <'3 I don't get the opening though.. who the heck is singing?

I think I just died inside a bit.

LOL... I might be a bit basis though.
=)

petal >>>>> any of the new songs so far

petal is amazing... I want the cd rip...
I wonder if its the full version... it still says preview...
hmmm
