What would typically be the wait after announcement? a month and 1/2? Or 2? It's still really early for a single, but new song being released = always great!

haha of course i will :P

i have a membership to mu-mo, so I pay a certain amount per month and then get points, which I use to purchase chakuuta/full songs :P

Wow!! A new song!

Blossom is a cute title. It reminds me of Cherry Blossoms..LOL

I also like her next single to be 4A..

thanks for the news!

'blossom' sounds gooood. Cant wait for new single!

A neeeeeeew song??!! yay so quick!!
I love the title, if it was Blossom/MOON it's gonna be a memorable single

I want a 2A side single NOW, no time to wait a 4A side !!! *way too hyper* want something to finish spring !!!!! She could still release an end of summer single later ^w^ want want want now *rolls on the floor like a kid*

But blossom sound perfect ( "nice" should be better, 15 sec is very short to judge correctly ^w^ ) to finish spring season *^* and start summer !

*forgot her meds*

oooh I'm A song for XX Initiate *-*

I like the thought of a 4A single :yes

I really like this song. I can't wait for further announcement of a new single :yatta

Wow!! I wasn't here one little day and already there is a new song title announced!! So fast!! :D
"blossom".. this title gives me a great feeling, summerish and fresh.
I am so excited for a new single, no matter wheter 4A or not! Yay!

Sounds nice and catchy. I like it. Can't wait for the single! :)

waaaaa blossom sounds really lovely so far.
If the whole song will be as great as the preview I'm gonna looooooooooove it.
I think I already like blossom more than MOON^^

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I can remember You were.../BALLAD being announced like 3 months beforehand. But that does sound a bit long, maybe I just made that up.

But usually it's about 1.5 / 2 months yes :) I hope it's ASAP.. Blossom sounds like spring! Would make no sense releasing that in like, August. I'm hoping for a June release. *prays*

I like the preview. Very short, but sounds like a good chorus. I think its a demo stage still though. It just doesn't sound.. complete.

wow i like Raven actually reminds me of Sparkle Honda CM, the dark rock ayu!!

actually in the lyric of <Moments>, ayu has written the same thing.

That's actually partly why people think this might happen. Moments was performed at CDL which apparently was to hint at what would be done in the future. (AT10, possibly a new single.. etc.)

Ayu can't stop working *_*
too short to get a clear idea... sample doesn't sound very surprising though

I actually like the preview! It sounds so anime and fresh.

I japanese fan in twitter, I don't know why said me that he thinks blossom will be for this summer and MOON for her 50th single this winter... LOL

who knows??

But I hope not, I can't wait that much to hear MOON XD

That's definitely not going to happen. She would never release a preview of MOON in March and then a CM in May if the song's not going to be released until the winter.

This will be a spring / summer single :)

didnt that happen with GREEN though?? i cant really remember the dates and stuff but i remember expecting GREEN to be a summer single when the commercial came out and then it turned out to be part of a winter single xD

Thanks for the video, really looking forward to the new songs~^^

^^
Yeah but when GREEN the commerical came out and afterwards there was no news about the song for like a long time (that's how I remember it). But with MOON she's been singing it at the concerts.

I personally think that this 4A-side isn't gonna happen. blossom probably isn't even complete she's just done the chorus for the commerical so far. And I think you all are gonna be disappointed when they announced MOON/blossom.

GREEN CM came out in like September or so. isn't that a little too late for a summer single? Anyway, I doubt MOON would be a winter single; almost makes zilch sense imo.

Mmm no, I think both MOON and blossom are fully finished...

see the first post, the pic with Ayu talking in a pre recorded clip. It's her talking about blossom in the press conference for Zespri..

She's wearing the same clothes and it's in the same place and moment she recorded that clip for the RnRC page: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmSVaKIDLiE

And that was recorded before 14 april ^^ 1 months since then... even if at that time only the chorus was done she has had time of finishing it ^^

This is the Zespri Kiwi GOLD ersion (do't know if someone post it alread) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUao5QpjbD8

I wonder if single will be released around 20th July or a bit later... There are already announces of several avex artists releasing their singles this time...

Maybe we have 2 differents version of the single, somethin like with Mirrorcle World:

V.A
MOON
Blossom
Bird

V.B
MOON
Blossom
Wind

^ i really hope she won't name the song Bird...

Blossom sounds amazing!! MOON too!!! i think she can have another 200k single if she does the promotion properly! go avex, please dont ruin this. :weep

blossom sounds great!

Is time really passing by so quickly, or is Ayu working on these extremely fast?

haha lol yes Bird as song's title doesn't sounds so good :laugh
Raven is cool, but would be great a bird less 'dark' like Nightingale *_*

The 3rd songs of both versions don't need to be called 'bird' an 'wind', it's only for simplify :D

maybe something like

01. blossom
02. MOON
03. RAINBOW PEACOCK
04. sky
05. blossom (remix)
06. MOON (remix/acoustic version)
07. blossom (instrumental)
08. MOON (instrumental)
09. RAINBOW PEACOCK (instrumental)
10. sky (instrumental)

Or something of that sort. =P

i would love 4A single
i wanna guess the name of the other song too haha
1. MOON
2. blossom
3. PHOENIX
4. breeze

^ oh GOD,RAINBOW PEACOK,rofl XDD

oh yeah -____- avex would do sth like that FOR SURE! And also one making in each DVD... And I would have to buy both T_____T hahaha

Btw there are rumors that ayu is in Milano.
Well she put a pic in twitter where a staff of her eats an ice cream with "Milano" written on it and in the picture there's a daylight while in japan it was already a dark hour.
Just a rumor though. =P

^
I've seen it too. But I thought was just a japanese ice cream parlor called 'MILANO' D:
If she's in Milan I'll take the train ASAP lol

^i doubt she is in itali...i kinda believe that her next destination will be spain...she mentioned spain a lot...she will get there soon or later...

and from the ice cream pic, i see japanese character under milano brand, i think she is in japan...and she is on tour, she will perform at yokohama very soon, so i doubt that she has time to working overseas...

what 4A means ;_;? Im sorry but im comfused xD

love the title! blossom is very unexpective and not cheesy
song is 'summerish' but not like BLUE BIRD, i think more in fairyland tune (i love fairyland :D)
it got some sad tune in it... and that's pretty cool!

wind/bird wth~ please not this titles O_o

i would love 4A single
i wanna guess the name of the other songs too haha

1. MOON
2. blossom
3. PHOENIX
4. breeze

it would be cool!!

4A= quadruple a-side single, like A.

imho it would be cool in that way (but it never will happend, but w/e xD)

1. blossom - single starting to "blossom" , medium tempo, as we can hear in CM)
2. "the bird one" (i imagine it with colorful, crazy bird, maybe Parrot, but i think of "more" crazy one) - something like STEP you/Startin' - dancy and poppy, very sexy song, feminine
3. "the wind one" - very "nostalgic song", single starting to fading from "day" to "night" something like HAPPY ENDING or HANABI
4. MOON - single comes to dark end, with this 'rocky' powerful ballad.

sounds so boring LOL i like the end of it, if the whole chorus sounds like this it wouldn't be that great to me

1. bloosm
2. death from ABOVE
3. down down deep in HELL
4. MOON

this's just my rough guess,
ayu had done the songs of Kachoufuugetsu idiom already, with

blossom, winding road, BLUE BIRD and MOON

but I still die happy if ayu willing to make 4A singles again, with 4new songs and 4 new pvs (and they're related to each other) XDDD

1.blossom
2.MOON
3.SKY
4.Forever

^I'm not sure if I would like her to relate the songs with each other PVs in some way... Sunrise/Sunset comes to my mind D:

But I agree with the idea that a 4A-Side would be amazing.

Don´t even mention those xD

blossom seems promising! :yes

I'd love to see title like this :)

Hope you are right *_____________________________* Barcelona please!! hahahaha


Peopel is saying wind and bird in substitution of a posible title related to this things, 'cause if the kachoofuugetsu theory is true she would have to do 2 more songs related to "wind" and "bird" ^^

oh god no :no

it sounds awesome for summer! can't wait! :)

I'm gonna love this song, that's my genre

holy sh-- she stole my song title. i wrote a song a year ago with that title!! ahahaahah! check it out: http://www.myspace.com/kaoshouayang how funny!

ooo i can't wait for her next single!!!

I hate how there's no 30 second CM. ;_;

The song sounds really promising in the CM. Nice!

I love the sound of this song~! I have really high hopes for this single, and I hope the covers follow the pattern of amazingness that her photoshoots have! <3

The song sounds nice from what I can hear:)
It's kind of strange for ayu to have 2 new songs already finished (at least MOON is finished) after only 1 month after the release of the album O.o
I wonder when ayu will release it as a new single...

Apparently a bunch of people are thinking that Tetsuya Komuro composed blossom.

Oh mang.

Woah x_X the only song he ever composed to her was A Song is born.
(And that's probably because he composed all of the song+nation songs).

I wouldn't mind at all though. He's a good composer after all (even if he did stupid stuff).

Why do they think that from the first place though?

huh? Wind(Kaze, Air) is unrelated to winding in that context though.

"Winding" is a word that has nothing to do with actual wind. See below:

Related songs with titles = yes, related with same genre and pv's = no xD

anyone got the feeling that this CM preview sound very... old ayu style? Oo

and uhm, maybe she recorded more songs, and she kept this in secret. tracks that she loved and for some reason they didn't fit rnr'c or maybe they were too GOOD to be "just new songs from album" and they keep them for a single...

Why is that every single time we get a preview of something, SOMEONE has to say "oh it sounds like old ayu!" ... every time! When it sounds nothing like it! EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

mou...

i think there is nothing wrong with this feeling :D and everyone got the diffrent taste and hearing~

Probably because he's back working with avex again (since avex paid off his debt to the guy he ripped off)

If he did compose blossom its probably because avex pushed him to start working again with some big names to try and get people to forget the whole fraud thing

That was FAST!! "Blossom" sounds very pretty to me! Can't wait to hear the full song.

But really, that word "blossom" makes me think about the "cherry blossoms", which is spring-related - this is for summer, isn't it?

And anybody else think "blossom" is a spring word for "cherry blossoms"?

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. There doesn't seem to be any hard feelings in avex about things with him, he's been rehired and he does still work there, still close to Max also since surely refunding the guy he ripped off was Max's doing.

He's a good composer, I'd have no problem if he composed for her again.

I didn't mean you personally...your post just reminded me. It's always different users and I just don't get it...lol

This song just sounds "non-too-combinated". Very casual for her, but i like the sound. Prefer the "nostalgia" summer/spring songs, than the "happy".

Hmm...well I can't really make a comment yet based on the preview due to the fact that it was so brief, but it's good to see Ayu's not gonna keep us waiting for too long!

I prefer the kawaii summer songs!! I love something like July 1st or Greatful Days, because Sunrise is the worst 4 ME

I thought Sunrise was pretty cute.. cuter than July 1st (never really saw that as cute). I don't think blossom will be able to top Sunrise for me, but we'll see~

Sounds better on the HD CM. :D

So Chaku-uta comes out today? :D

blossom means any sort of flower, not a cherry blossom.

It's such a short clip, it's hard to tell but to me I don't think they can be compared, they have a different aura to them. Like I would find blossom more comparable with NEXT LEVEL. It has that... airy, calm but pretty sort of feel to it where as Sunrise is a crowd pumper.

i downloaded the chakuuta

it's 13 seconds long... haha
it's exactly the same thing as the cm, minus the talking haha

maybe it will be released with MOON like a double A-side single??
BLOSSOM / MOON????

Exactly what I expected.

Mmm, do want, haha.

Yeah we don't even know how the rest of it will sound. For all we know she could be including her dancers in the song again (really hope this doesn't happen). I want an all ayu summer song this time.

Sadly, almost every summer PV has had the dancers in them somehow.

I kinda count Shawn Yue as a bad g/f dancer replacement, so w/e.

Greatful days - female dancer w/ good bod + random people dancing
INSPIRE - dancers dancing in desert / beach
fairyland - dancers dancing around Ayu and running around
BLUE BIRD - dancers partying and dancing/flailing in sunset
glitter/fated - stated above
Sunrise/Sunset - dancers dancing in weird formation w/ fans watching

fffffffffu

lol of course they'll be in the PV, but in Sunrise they were in the actual song. I don't want that this time.

I think with Sunrise, she wanted that chant-y thing. Same kinda thing happened with +, independent and flower garden.

They probably won't be a part of this. (The HAMO HAMO BOYS and A BOYS, haha.)

Would anyone even have a problem with the Sunrise chant if it weren't for the fact they were her dancers? That's not fair. Ayu's trying to stay within the budget. :laugh

Going back to the "BIRD" title thing, I think that 鳥"Tori" looks and sounds so much better lol I would love ayu to have some titles in Japanese!! :D

I thought Sunrise was cute. I liked it... but it's like, I don't consider it to be something amazing, though, imho, I think it's hard for a sugary pop song to be omgamzng and the only ones I consider to be so is July 1st and independent, though I do love Blue Bird, fairyland, etc.

}{ is a perfect single in my opinion (as far as music goes; the fact that PVs were never made is still something that irks me) and no other has surpassed it for me. But blossom seems so promising right now!

Sunrise is probably my favorite Ayu summer fun-pop song after fairyland.

July 1st is a little too melancholy mixed with joy to be in the same classification I think.

^
I agree with your first comment for sure. I love fairyland.

...and from the super short time I heard blossom I like it so far too. Exciting to have new songs being trickled out already. Crazy, but in a good way. :D

Do you think Sunrise and fairyland fit in the same classification though? fairyland is so sad-yet-happy-nostalgic, but July 1st, at least for me, is like, more of a laid-back summer song; like, similar to Sunrise, but not as hyper, and the lyrics are chilled-happy.

I wonder what type of song blossom will be. *___* Can't be told from just that one line/

same ^^ i love Sunrise, because it's so powerfull. I love fairyland for the sad tune in it. (in fact the PV is sad too~)

This song does not sound to be 'dance PV' but if so, something like fairyland, with a 'almost story-line' would fit. But im tired of beach/sea/etc.

The thing about fairyland is that it's not really a ballad at first (like July 1st IMO)... and the chorus is way more poppy than July 1st's I think.

The verses for BLUE BIRD, fairyland, and Sunrise all seem to progress in the same manner though. It's kinda flat before the songs explode during the choruses.

glitter and Greatful days seem to be her only summer-tracks that are basically nonstop "fun"~

Oh okay I see, you're talking more about the music. In that case, yeah, fairyland, is a lot more pop a lot happier as far as the music goes. July 1st starts off super chill and not as charged as like, glitter or others.

I wonder if Next Level can be called a summer song//

And also, I wonder how different blossom will be from this CM. GREEN sounded completely different to me from the CM that aired several months prior to the single..

Uhhh... A summer song? :P

Maybe summer pop-ish? It's kind of upbeat...

Of course!! :P I meant more specifically, and also like I said, sometimes it sounds completely different than the CM, like Green.

I vote NEXT LEVEL-ish! But you're right, it does have a hint of GREEN.

Oh, well yeah, actually I always did think it had a hint of Green, but I meant that the finished product, blossom, might sound different than this preview, much like that Panasonic CM with the tea cups sounded quite different than finished-product GREEN.
