U noe...it would be so much more interesting if...she specially made a 10th Anniversary Version of A BEST instead

If she does end up releaseing a new single around "A COMPLETE" and is able to promote both of them properly...then props to Ayu.

edit**
has the lumix tie up song ever been a remix? Wasn't Ladies night ~another night~ used for one?

Yes, and CAROLS -Classical-.

But that's been it. For Ayu to use Who... would be kind of.. strange. Considering that the camera comes out in less than a month, something new WILL be announced.

I'm a bit glad I didn't buy A BEST 2 since this collection is so much bigger and cheaper and they finally put that Limited TA concert on dvd

Andali 25th July 2008 03:24 AM

Waaa?! How totally down right awesome to the maximus! Plus a new Who... That's like, her talking directly to her fans. What's that price in US? Though I'm AUS but it's close enough.

Slightly more than the US one.

I understand that for the CD part. But the DVD is MAY-JUH

taskinillusion 25th July 2008 03:28 AM

Well, to be honest, I'm a little disappointed with this... I mean, it's songs we have already (minus the new version of "Who...")... But the DVD footage will be awesome!

darc_aqua 25th July 2008 03:29 AM

its $43 on CDJapan which is really cheap / 3CD+DVD version. i'm looking forward to the dvd, photobook, and special box thing

GRACE 25th July 2008 03:31 AM

I'm just glad that there's no special bonus track for each of the two versions >.>... I can't wait for it to come, since I only have three of her albums, this gives me a lot of new songs on CD~~

truehappiness 25th July 2008 03:32 AM

The fact that the 3CD+DVD is the only version with the photobook and anniversary box should make you.. quite unglad.. though I wonder just how limited it is.

darc_aqua 25th July 2008 03:33 AM

..wonder why the 3CD didnt get the same treatment for first press

greggerz189 25th July 2008 03:42 AM

OH MY SH~IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm going to be so broke!

angelwing886 25th July 2008 03:45 AM

Probably to make people buy the 3CD+DVD version~ Since it's more money, they'll earn more money off of it, so they want to make it as appealing as possible.

Worked for me, I pre-ordered that version.

bluegie 25th July 2008 03:46 AM

cuz I'm sure that avex is tryin' to make/force more people buying that Cd+DVD version. You know, I'm sure most of us here have all the songs technically (unless those AUDIENCE/Daybreak/kanariya/etc are all single versions). So the major focus for this release should be those rare footage.

I guess that is why I'm not really attracted by the release. I'm not interested in those a-nations/TA limited footage. The only lives that attract me are A Museum, AT 04 - 05, and CDL 2006 (the best one... was that 2006 or 2007?).

And my brother thought it's totally wasting money to get this A COMPLETE thingie (which I quite agree). It's cheap (~45 USD for 3Cds + DVD very cheap), but I have all the songs... So unless the cover is attractive, otherwise I dun think I will order this one.. (sad.. :()

There was other artist who had an album, single, and DVD release the same day, and all went number one.
Like KAT-TUN.
So it IS possible~ we can't rule anything, even how unlikely or likely something seems.

Actually, the mixi report calls this the "ultimate" best (as in, complation, not like... soo good.. ahaha ^o^) album in japanese.
However, if you are saying no one is calling it specifically "A BEST 3,"
Then youre right.
I think maybe this should have been the year for A BEST 2, with all those nice pictures and features~

Maybe thinking about it, Mirrorcle World should have been like a song like part of me... album surprise only.
But I, and others too really really like Mirrorcle World~ and think it's a great single.
So it's a little weird.. I don't think there was ever an artist who expanded an interlude into a full version song like this,
So it's hard to say what should and shouldnt have happened.
Personally... I think she should have kept the instrumentation like it was in Mirror..
Less noise in the chorus.. it would have sounded 100x better, so we could clearly hear the beat.

But I am waiting for this new footage~~
And how Who... sounds after sooo many years!!~
I wonder how it does... can you imagine... rockified Who... like Depend on You and YOU. ahaha. I am waiting!!!

truehappiness 25th July 2008 03:50 AM

I see the "SINGLE BEST" now.

But then again, I guess collections like this are lumped into the category of best-of.

I wonder how Ayu will explain its release.

Not to mention ayu did that as well back in 2000... Duty/SURREAL/another live DVD that I forgot. :P. So basically I dun think it's a problem at all if ayu's gonna release a single close to A COMPLETE at all.

Again, someone has done this before. Hikki's interlude on the first album was made into a full song on her second album. Of course, hikki's interlude only consisted 4 sentence or less, why Mirror was like 1/3 of Mirrorcle World :D

GRACE 25th July 2008 03:53 AM

Hey, if Mirrorcle World is on this, does that mean it may not appear on a studio album?

tokyoxjapanxfan 25th July 2008 03:55 AM

im interested in the commercials for it xD i hope it's a nice CM design. and do you think there will actually be a new cover, or just like...a giant A like with the complete clip box?

and im not sure how i should go about ordering this...im gunna be in japan during the release, so i cant preorder it....unless i want it shipped to my house in the US...but then i have the chance of buying it in a store--but do stores have a lot of first press? (i feel like thats a dumb question....but ive only ever ordered first press and stuff online...haha!)
