Question: Is there a studio version of the A Song for xx remix Ayu performs at AT02 and CDL06-07? If there is, what is it called?

ExodusUK 2nd May 2020 02:27 PM

I guess Avex deleted the concert uploads?

I don't think so but it kinda gives me the feel of if ASFXX Ferry Corsten Chilled Mix and the version on A BALLADS had a baby..that would be it x

Honestly, this is *the* definitive performance to me. No others need apply, what compilation?, etc

Ah, that's a shame, it's an interesting take on the song. And your description is pretty fitting. :laugh

And yes, all the temporary concert uploads for Ayu are now down. The 50 singles live selection is still available though.

The a-nation '08 performance in the rain is everything. :love DT01 is a close second though.

^It's so iconic!

The last episode of M was focusing on the writing of A song for xx so that explain why there's this compilation now.

thinkingoutloud89 2nd May 2020 08:31 PM

a nation 08 is the best ASfXX performance ever. i watched and listend to that rendition 1000+ times.

It's interesting to think that Ayu would pick Secret or ASFXX as her favourite album. Secret is one of my favourites too, though.

Lol ASFXX has some bops! I've been listening to Hana and SIGNAL a lot lately.

ExodusUK 3rd May 2020 03:37 AM

the taste...is not there..half of ASFXX is unlistenable nokia ringtones Sonic Genesis music with Ayu singing on top

It’s kind of heartwarming in that sense. Lol. Like, it succeeded for that genre of music. Of all the “Nokia ringtones sonic genesis music” out there, A Sonf For XX is top tier.

DavidChaiLatte 3rd May 2020 03:59 AM

Come to think of it, was Avex trying to push for an Every Little Thing-esque sound with ASFXX? I have heard some claim they were trying to make her the second Kaori Mochida

In hindsight i think my post is kinda harsh (but who cares?) but the quality between a song for xx and loveppears is astounding

hud 3rd May 2020 04:58 AM

yeah it's kinda basic compared to the other albums but I grew to love ASFXX... I love Hana, FRIEND, FRIEND II, As if..., SIGNAL... it's full of bops

Oh God yeah, I agree with you lol. But they are two totally different worlds. LOVEppears is also top-tier for the style it worked to (and ultimately) emulate. In the same regard, A Song For XX could be considered top-tier for what it was looking to achieve.

What is ASFXX got a modern revision? I'd pay for that.
