Oh, geez, I hope you figure this one out soon. I'd like to know much more about this. I want to read the lyrics. XD

Ehm, so basically these were "rumour" lyrics?

Unless the actual lyrics heard were different I don't see what's so intriguing about these. Sorry.

It pretty much says so in the first post, as Deli states she isn't sure those are real or not. But there's something to them that makes them interesting, they fit the songs completely already before they were released in full, by what I understand.

So, the lyrics has to come from somewhere and are probably not completely made up. If they are, then there's nothing more intriguing, but if this would actually be lyrics written by Ayu, and then changed for the later versions, it's suddenly a bit more interesting.

I think she did ditch the whole theme of the album and make a new one at the last minute because of 9/11 or something. Perhaps that had something to do with the lyrics, too?

You might be right. She did ditch the previous theme she had for the album booklet/cover at the last minute for a "peace" theme. I think A song is born was also added in the last minute. :P

If she had time to add a fully new song I'm pretty sure she very well can have changed the lyrics aswell, a good theory there Winter.

Yes, IF this is the case, it would be interesting.

The 9/11 thing is true, if that is what you mean.

About the lyrics, yeah, if they are true it would be interesting.

No and I don't really believe in Holocaust either :tipsy

I knew that she changed a lot due to 9/11, I never heard of the lyrics though. But I thought it would be a whole lot interesting if the thread starter could reassure that these werent just made up lyrics. ;) The CMs seems to be have taken off youtube, and even if the lyrics in them were different this is interesting. =)

I think one of the points of the thread is to find out if those actually are fakes or not, so I don't think Deli can confirm anything :).

can you please tell me more? which two lines got switched? in which remix?

they add and switch lines in remixes all the time. Listen to f.ex the aggressive remix of Endless Sorrow in which the added a line in the second chorus (I think).

When it comes to remixes, and switching places of lines, I don't think Ayu has any say, it's all up to the remixer. Although, if there are actual new lyrics with different words it must be that either Ayu is involved in the making of the remix or she sent more voice samples than only the original lyrics.

Cool. Lost lyrics. I wouldn't mind knowing what her previous theme was, either.

Artist change lyrics all the time. And I'm pretty sure she did change the lyrics to some of those songs because she said so herself, right? She said they did a bunch of different beats and some with different lyrics. I am... was probably the one album Hamasaki was OCD with and tried to make perfect. It's her most commercial album ever.

Well, she did compose like almost all of it :)

I wonder if people actually paid much attention to her other CMs. Maybe there's contradictions in a lot more of them, compared to the originals?

I went home this weekend, but I couldn't find them. Sorry guys. :( I'm going home again in two weeks, and I can try looking for them again.
