if the album name is going to be Happening Here, I'm going to kill whoever sits next to me when i read it.

i am kinda excited that AT12 will be Hotel Love songs because we can now see the original HLS that was scrapped due to the disaster.

Yes, CDL1112 is also Hotel Love songs. but most probably it will be a scaled down version since u noe CDL is not as grand as a tour.

i am still worried about the performances being similar. and what about the tour for the new album?

Doesn't CDL have 3 nights this year instead of 2? I thought that was so there would be one more opportunity to see HOTEL Love songs, and now the entire tour is being based around that concept. Well... I guess we will see what happens...

wondered the same, expected something different as we have an upcoming album..anyway glad the 2012 tour announcement has already been done!

Well even if the CDL is 3 days, it's still around 36,000 people instead of 200,000-350,000 she can show to in a tour.

Maybe it will be half 2012 LOVE HOTEL and the second half a tour for the new album?
Even with Happening Here being a cover and the theme song of LOVE HOTEL shows I dount that she is up to a cover album.
She probably like this song very much and decided to cover and use it now specifically.

maybe the arena tour will be the sequel of the countdown live? that's what I picture when I think about it :)

Why are people thinking the new album is a cover album? Ayu tweet'd about deleting lyrics by mistake and Timmy said in a facebook message that Ayu is writing lyrics for a song he's composed.

That's what I thought of as well. It could be a story or part 1 - part 2. =) Either way, just the thought of having a Hotel Love Songs tour is so awesome. ^_^

no no no... please not a cover album. :(

I want a brand new album with brand new songs.

But maybe she's making a new album + a cover album?

that's a lot. o.O"a

I will go this year...so i'm excited...whatever it is...
waiting for the tour schedule, i need the schedule so bad!

Happening here is not a bad song...
but i'm nervous that ayu keep going backward not forward...
she already covered TRF - seven days wars
and WOW WAR TONIGHT during her a-nation...
and now Happening here...
not a good direction...

Oh ayu~
Asia tour please ><

because I forgot that happened lolololol

I hope she releases a cover album, would be awesome! =D

Though, judging by PV-shootings, etc., I'd say it's rather unlikely.

this is surprising, same title name for both CDL and AT2012.
even though i thought she would just use the HOTEL love songs concept on CDL, this is totally surprising.
i think they'll use the same stage design for both, then costumes n setlists will be different.
i hope she'll release the information about the new album soon!

...I dont like this song. It's too old...

seven days wars
and WOW WAR TONIGHT is not by TRF...
seven days wars is by TM Network and WOW WAR TONIGHT is by H Jungle with t (Hamada from Heyx3 ^^)

I'm confused.

So, CDL is now Hotel Love Songs Arena Tour, which is actually going to be extended for the next tour?

I love TRF, so I'm excited for the cover. But if this means I'll have a chance of going to the Hotel Love Songs tour... I'm ecstatic! But I'm just confused haha!

edit: I get it now. haha

I wonder if it will be a really long tour, or shorter like her old concerts.

This is certainly interesting news to wake up to. I would have preferred new album info. But I do always love learning about the costumes she might use and the songs she sings for a tour.

x2

And you don't normally make music videos for cover songs.


Well, this is certainly some interesting news!
I wonder if the CDL will be like the Arena Tour, and how long the tour will be... If she does it over spring and summer I guess there's always the other half of the year to release and promote new music.
