I am most looking forward to this solely because of Ayu <333

SOLEEELYYY

yesssss, can't wait! :luv2

Yay! lol I love it when ppl see the news shouting out OMG OMG OMFG lol. That's what I wanna say.:D

Very cool.Thanks for posting.

october 13?
hmmmmm
has ayu releases anything on october 31?
just a thought :P
ayu dresses up as a clown and go all bling bling
and her title song "JEWEL" is a triple a single

I just hope Luis Hernandez and Takahide Ishii stay away from this project..

Lol, yup, finally some Ayu action!

yay!!! finally we all can see ayu again!! i am excited to see her new look!! and of cos her new song!! :D:D thanks for the info!

New looks = YOOGE SUNGLASSES that can accidentally set small children on fire on a hot day... palced firmly over eyes whose whites are currently a bold red from her burst blood vessels.

Oh, and a dress made from lint, vole skeletons, burlap, toilet paper, and and Taco Bell wrappers; couple this with Albert Einstein hair <3

Tres chic!

:o~

Since when has she not owned huge sunglasses though LOL

Like Anthony says she has always owned huge sunglasses, but lately she's being powned by them :/.

she wears sunglasses due to her infected eye right? but it has been a long time.. her eyes are still infected???

I don't think it was an infection, just some blood veins that collapsed and miscoloured her eye whites, it takes time for it to heal by what I know.

I don't know any better wat to describe it, and I don't rememeber the name of the injury so I can't look up pictures.

technically it's called subconjunctival heamorrhage
:D

No wonder I didn't remember the name ._.

Here's the wikipedia article on it, the picture isn't very nice to look at, so don't if you don't want to.

link.

er......thank you anyway
i'd better off to bed
that subconjunctival heamorrhage thing looks wierd.......

i see.. lol.. those who do not know the correct term will name it an infection.. now i noe the correct term to use :P i seriously do hope that ayu will NOT appear with sunglasses.. she looks awful!

WAI!!! I'm so happy she's finally promoting it!!! This also means that her eyes are better too!

I hope we can see PV before MS. I want to see a PV so badly.

I think we'd hear news of a single or an album before we get to see any PV, and as the Ayu world is still completely silent... I doubt we'll see anything before MS :/.

Too bad, I think you will be right :(
I don't know if I will watch MS, I always prefer the PV version. Will try to wait.

I love when it's live, but getting used to a live version first sucks sometimes because then you'll just think the original sounds weird :D.

I know for sure that I cant wait till the PV if it comes after MS :no

I want tomorrow to be 10/13 x__x

well.... i hope avex will reveal some info regarding the next cd before MS...

OMG...that's strange...knida cool...Live performance before the new single even released. 10 more days!!! is like 100 years!!! 'til it come!!!

I hope she wears an eyepatch during the performance cuz ugh...that eye thing looks nastaaaaaaay.

YAY! w00t! ^^

I jus hope ayu will release sumtin sooner..and my life will b happi..

That doesn't look pretty. At least it's almost painless.

Ayu could wear an eye patch? :P That would be cute! :D

^Found a picture from MS 10/13 for you :).

http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/430...sdasdsdid5.png

^ LOL! But yup, I'm sure Ayu's fine now. It's definitely been more than 2 weeks since her eyes got hurt so according to the Wikipedia entry, she should be fine now.

Woooo! So cute, hehe! :D

Didn't ayu wore a eye patch before? I remember seeing a picture of her in that red outfit with feathers from stadium tour and she was wearing a red eye patch or something.

goodies, Ayu is still alive =D Can't wait for the song!

the single is going to be released soon!!! i got a feeling that they would announce the single before ayu's performance :D

im checking back every 5 minutes lol. i hope that they wnt cut the performance. it needs to be a full version.

something to look forward to... i only previewed the miserable 15sec version..

-faints-

I can't wait! A little more than a week to go now! <3

Oh dear, Yume no Uta and Jewel on the same day? Somewhat disaster-like. I hope people pay more attention to Ayu or Ayu's ballad sounds frickin awesome with hidden electric guitar bits we never knew about.

I don't think there should be a problem really.. I mean, Ayu hasn't even released single info / covers / radio rips.. whereas.. all that stuff has been out for ages in Koda's case LOL

avex seems to have a thing with scheduling Ayu and Koda on the exact same Music Stations for several occasions o_O;~

I don't really like the fact that Koda's going to be on MS as well for some reason... argh. But but but it's just WONDERFUL that ayu is going to be on like omg omg omg!!! ahh! SOOOO happy. Totally anticipating it, why can't it be the 13th today? time is torturing me.

I think people are looking forward to the Ayu, rather than the Koda/everyone else..

Since no one's actually SEEN Ayu LIVE for a while x.x
[a-nation doesn't count]


We musn't forget the Popteen / SWEET / Vivi magazines.

11/1 Popteen
10/12 Sweet
10/23 Vivi <3

That's so exciting that it's only one week from today. It is pretty funny how Ayu and Kuu are on the same episode though. But really, Kuu seems to be on MS all the time anyways so it isn't too surprising, haha :D

Well Kuu is actually releasing a single. I think that's a good enough reason to go on MS.

Where did you hear about the Popteen issue?

I should reply here now.. LOL

The little tiff at ALA about it.

Popteen's calendar confirms it.
http://www.popteen.net/news/calendar11-main.html

I don't really get it....is ayu gonna be on the cover of popteen's december issue release on nov 1? coz nov's issue has kumi on the cover

The nov issue was released in october, and the dec issue is released in november... I think.

Anyone who has watched Ayu's magazine releases should know that they release a month ahead of time..

So October's issue is in Sept and so on.

so i guess the december issue will have ayu on the cover or atleast something with ayu in it?

She'll be on the cover, according to the news at ayuloveayu.

oh i love ayu as a covergirl :D... can't wait for the magazine scans yeah!!!!

lol 3 more days to go and we can hear more of Jewel! and Koda is at MS as well? then lets hope they be friends or something :P

I would imagine that they aren't.. do they ever talk during lives? :/

I think that the artists are disencouraged to talk while the cameras are on the hosts, bad manners to chatter away in the background I believe :).

What they do off stage is something we'll never know.

Five days left. I wonder what the reaction will be to JEWEL and if we'll get any insider info on her 'look' for the single and any PVs.. :O

LOL!!!

For anyone seeking 'consolation or something'~~

The MUSIC STATION site has corrected their 'Ayu performances' number and replaced the 30 with a 60 :)

２０周年記念SP第２弾の出演アーティストがさらに２組が大決定しましたっ！！

それは…
これまで６０回ご出演頂いている浜崎あゆみさん！

そして、
今年結成１５周年を迎えられたＬ’Ａｒｃ～ｅｎ～Ｃｉｅｌの皆さんです！


出演者ラインナップの更新が待ちきれず、、、ブログでお伝えしちゃいましたが、披露して頂く曲タイトルはそ ちらのほうご確認下さい♪（まだ決まってないのですが…＞笑）。

That's a bit of a more understandable number.

Thanks for the update. I feel consolidated.

Again I dont know anything.. what numbers o.O? why replace 30 with 60?

Gaash, maybe I should leave my bubble once in a while.

^They first annouced that Ayu had appeared 30 times in total on MS, which is wrong, they corrected it with that this is her 60th apperance.

It was discussed earlier in the thread.

I tried to search something about the numbers but I'm so poor discoverer so.. :(

thx~

YEAH!
I like JEWEL very much!
Waiting for 13/10. ^o^!

2 more days to go! ^^

Yeah!:D

3 more days for us here in Europe :(.

friday 13th! eeek XDI hope Ayu's ballad will be pretty or prettier than Yume no Uta. However Yume no Uta is really nice....

3 more days, 3 more days! I don't think I have ever been THIS desperate in seeing an Ayu performance. Too bad I can't travel in time!

2 days here :eviltongu

argh.... I wish that it was one more day here!!

actually the waiting time is the same, but for us in the west we have think one day less

We won't even get it on the 13th guys :P But probably some cool person from Japan who has watched it will tell us if there is a new single or not

This is beyond Torturing!!!!!!! AYU-san why!???

It helps mentally knowing it's only two days left =P

Woo! My 69th post. lol

Thank god for satellite television.

Can you see MS over in australia?

^ yea, if you have satellite television and configured to japanese channels. Anyone in the world should be able to get it.

good for you
poor me in Adelaide
ive only got SBS2 here

From the Music Station site:
披露していただくのはＣＭソングとしても使用されている「JEWEL」。
皆さん、サビの部分はお聞きになっているとおもうんですが…メッチャ素敵なバラードですよ


Basically it says (I think) that something of the CM-song JEWEL was announced; and that it was performed with great vocals and that it's a wonderfull 'dreamy' ballad.

ehh..? i thought MS is alway live... so it's pre-recorded show?

It's a prerecorded show like, in the same week, but its shown on Friday..

AHH!!! cant wait... 36 hours to go...

soon!!!! :yes

Very soon! I can't wait!

1.5 more days... I'm dying now.. :weep:yeek

39 hours until it airs, actually.


:P

I think, unless my quick late-evening-math let me down!

can't wait! especially after seeing the sweet cover...>.<...this is killing me!!! I never wanted to see a performance sooo badly for a long time!!

lol! gotta agree with you there. Oh my... so exciting! Why can't the day pass by faster? Every hour is a killer.

The anticipation is really killing me I want to hear Jewel so bad. It sounds so great *sighs* please hurry Jewel please you to Music Station.

Yessss... >__<
Only 1 day left...
Can't hardly wait to see as soon as possibleeeee...

Let's just hope someone is able to rip it and upload it without delay :P

Man...I'm gonna have to get through a grueling critique in one of my studio art classes before Thursday is over and done with...Hopefully I'll be able to watch the performance when I get home.

Hm. So now that we've gotten information..
Will we start getting promotional photos soon? :o~

A month and like two weeks left! OMG.

Yes.

I know! It seems like it's been forever since she's released something.

^It really has, it's been longer than long.

Like... 4 months, and now there's another months wait.

Almost half a year between releases?

^I'm personally getting tired of waiting. This long span of nothing, not even CMs, is starting to drive me crazy. At least there will be some relife at the beginning of November and if my friend in Japan mails me the magazines right away or I have to wait till he comes back in December. I still just shock that there will only be two single from 2006.

You're lucky getting the magazines like that :).

Technically Bold & Delicious is also a 2006 single, making it 3. But there was only 2 singles before this new album release, which is not very much. Although, those two singles make up more than half of the tracklist of the single itself... :(.

^ How is Bold & Delicious/Pride a 2006 single? It was relases on Nov. 30th 2005. Now I'm very confused.

I don't remember exactly when the Oricon year starts, but technically I think it's around that time.

I need ayu_fan here. Now. lol. He knows all about it.

It should air soon huh? Can't wait!
