Reading the lyrics again and again. It really does seem like Ayu is feeling alone lately, if of course, she is putting herself into the lyrics like she usually does.

I don't want to sound like an *******, but she usually writes amazing songs when she feels depressed, sad or lonely. It might sound selfish, but I think that it could be good for her song writing.

Maemi 6th November 2009 09:29 AM

This lyric is smth that I already read somewhere...

^Absolutely. I don't think you sound like an ******* at all for saying that. It seems like she is more inspired to write more meaningful songs when she's feeling down, sad, lonely.

SURREAL__RAINBOW 6th November 2009 10:07 AM

^that is totally true... her "sad lyrics" were the base of everything since she started... her lyrics used to talk about how lonely she felt back then when she released A Song for XX, etc. that really caught the attention. sad lyrics are always easier to feel than just happy rainbow ones... bcose we are all human beings and we all experience the same sad things.

MissElin_ 6th November 2009 10:08 AM

^That not a bad thing to say. It is true. And I think its like that for the most of us. To write deep and meaningful lyrics you simply do it at your best when you feel those kind of feelings. But with that said, I'm happy for Ayu, feeling happy.

Midori-chan 6th November 2009 12:22 PM

^ I agree wholeheartedly!

I'm such a die-hard fan for Ayu's ballads, because they always have such deep and meaningful lyrics. They're really special to me and the strange thing is, that her ballads are the songs, which give me more strength than all of her other songs togeter, even when they're sad!

Oh, I can't believe it! It's nearly time for another CDL! But I can't wait! I always LOVE Ayu's CDLs! They are AMAZING!!

I'm really looking forward to it!! ^.^

Max_ZZZ 6th November 2009 07:32 PM

sorry for mentioning again but YAAAA why do artists make such good music when they're angst? LOOL
like kelly clarkson, man she made good music in breakaway when she was all angry, then all this my life would suck without you crap LOL no haaate

and ya like GUILTY i thought was really good? then NEXT LEVEL she loves everyhting and we get like one ok sad song on the album and I felt bad for thinking itbut i was like "man i hope something makes you sad by the next album" LOOL sorry mayne don't kill mee

Ayu_Ready 6th November 2009 07:43 PM

the lyrics are very cute >0<

Kanzaki 6th November 2009 07:53 PM

What I want, is a super sad, dark ballad. And I don't mind if the other songs on the single (though I doubt that will be the case with the ~for TA~ track) will have that same taste :yes

As to why people always seems to think artists make better music, when they're depressed or lonely...maybe that has something to do with us, what we want to "find" in the music that we listen to. I think we want to hear music that reflects upon our own personal problems, what we can identify. If it is happier music, we pay less attention to the lyrics, and don't give it the same greatness in value, because it then means less to us if it is not about our own problems. Just a thought.

noidea 6th November 2009 08:38 PM

Well, sorrowful music makes a stronger impression on me usually as well, thats why GUILTY to me is her best album. I hope for something like Together When..., maybe a little bit of Pride, walking proud, Over, forgiveness or POWDER SNOW...

In today's sunset, this time you have cried softly
and not as a dream "Do not go".

they remind me of memorial address :heart

oh yeah please!! diamonds? :laugh
i'm expecting a GREAT PV!! :luv2

BALLAD sounds like it should have been named EPIC. I know the lyrics are the results of google translate, but yeah...It sounds amazing.

Bigtop 6th November 2009 10:50 PM

Could be another kind of the JEWEL ballad series? That might really be interesting - only difference is that JEWEL was supposed to be a single but was consolidated into the Secret album, and the single that we are about to see is a double-A-side single...

well the songs do seem promising at least when it comes to lyrics. I am just hoping the songs don't have choreographies and that they do not feature the dancers.

BALLAD sounds so nice~ i hope it's a nice song that'll make me cry, i want it something similar to Memorial address

I woke up in the middle of a dream, eyelashes wet.
The words I remember are "Please, dont go."
The thing that never changes is the strengthening/worsening of these thoughts.
The thing that never wavers is these feelings of undying respect (have no idea to translate 敬い慕う in english, so I chose that one.)
Today's sunset sky is gentle like you,
It's not a dream now, I cried out. "Don't go."~~~

pommy48 6th November 2009 11:24 PM

like JEWEL+kanariya lol

i'm really looking forward to this single!

emikoishida 6th November 2009 11:29 PM

BEAUTIFUL lyrics! I just hope it's not like JEWEL again.

I woke up in the middle of a dream, my eyelashes were wet.
The words I remember were "Please, don't go"
The things that never change, they invite these thoughts to me..
The thing that never trembles, is this feeling that yearns for respect.
Today's sunset sky, it is just as tender as you are.
This time the words that are shouted aren't a dream: "Don't go!"


omg.. it sounds so sad. It already makes me emotional, I bet the real song will make me cry :) sounds very nice, extremely excited for this single!!

[EDIT: Whoops while translating, someone already posted one :laugh well now you guys have options to choose from]

Kanzaki 6th November 2009 11:36 PM

If it has a melody as good as Memorial adress or CAROLS, I'll definitely cry.

Bigtop 7th November 2009 12:16 AM

Just reading them I was like "Aw...". Imma go order the single right now!! (Oh.. wait... I already did.) haha.

And BALLAD also sounds very sad. ; ; A lot of crying will be going on when these songs/PV's come out, I just know it!
Thanks for the info!!

amorphose 7th November 2009 04:12 AM

BALLAD's lyrics sound like Memorial address part II. :heart I hope it has a killer melody... And the music video sounds like it could be like a more epic version of JEWEL.

I'm as excited for BALLAD now as I've been for You were...

polka-dot-jewel 7th November 2009 04:42 AM

Honestly, I'm glad none of the songs have been leaked. Her single doesn't come out for another month (and then some) - I don't want to get tired of any of the songs before the single is actually released. I am excited to hear them, though, especially after reading the lyrics =D

I want smth softer, but with strong effects, just like HANABI ~episode II~ or Together When...

people loooove HANABI/HANABI ~episode II~ and Together when... right? XD
I don't consider these songs as my favorites, there is something in them that bothers me but I dunno.. >_<
another ballad like TO BE or Memorial address would be interesting, these ones have a lot of power, and I miss this kind of ballads from Ayu ='(

waterballoon 7th November 2009 03:51 PM

I really love the lyrics to You were... and BALLAD. omg Ayu <3

freedreamer 7th November 2009 04:16 PM

i Love Ballad's lyrics!!! Ayu is so gd with sad songs! I can totally hear a very powerful ballad playing in my head and I hope Ayu delivers it. So she filmed You were? or BALLAD?...I keep having this impression that You were... is gonna be "Days-like" despite the sad lyrics..Days was sad too. And BALLAD will be the grand ballad...(like GREEN was..being the epic song)..

I dunno what to expect hahah..esp from such lyrics. Ayu is teasing with her lyrics again! loll...i hope it airs in 2-3 weeks :)

if she ever made a song like TO BE again...I WILL DIE IN HAPPINESS

panda♥ 7th November 2009 07:24 PM

BALLAD's lyrics sound nice, but i want a new happy ballad love song. maybe You were... will be the happy counterpart to BALLAD?

i'm kind of against her dying her hair black, but it's nice to have some change. the (m)u era still haunts me. :tired

ハート〜ブレーカ♥ 7th November 2009 07:31 PM

I can hardly wait for some previews of the song or PV, and leaks or whatever! This is gonna be epic, I just know it :heart

A acoustic song would be amazing :yes
I dunno why but a dramatical arrangement like HEAVEN or Together When... seems predictable for those lyrics, in my opinion. Maybe doesn't fit for a A-side song but it would be sound nice and pretty different than her previous ballads ^^

Crystal_Ageha 7th November 2009 09:36 PM

I think BALLAD should be a very soft ballade, with nothing too dramatic and powerful vocals. You were..., on the other hand, I think should have a little more detail and be slightly more upbeat, kinda like Days or HEAVEN.

nemesisyume 7th November 2009 10:35 PM

HEAVEN more upbeat?
were u high when listening to it?


Crystal_Ageha 7th November 2009 10:39 PM

Lol, I don't mean it's fast or anything. Just that, that and Days are slightly more uptempo and have more emphasized parts (during the choruses, at least), compared to ballades like Curtain Call and....well, that's all I can think of for Ayumi, hah. I don't know how to explain it good, sorry. I guess, just something that can bring about really happy emotions if the lyrics were different. For example, to me, HEAVEN really sounds like it could be changed into a sweet love song, and it's already bittersweet. HANABI ~episode II~, on the other hand, seems like there's no way to take the sorrow out of it.

kotora 8th November 2009 04:26 AM

it is funny nobody talks about RED Line anymore.

love in music 8th November 2009 04:36 AM

^ well we got lyrics to BALLAD and You were... but not RED LINE. if we did we'd be talking about that :yes

i hope we don't have to wait too long for previews of the songs

GRACE 8th November 2009 04:46 AM

if she already flimed a PV, then at least a song has to be done. Because they can't film without the song for her to sing/mouth a long too. So I'd assume that sometime this week, whatever song is done will leak. Maybe the PV will get an airdate soon, but doubtful

Suteisi 8th November 2009 05:11 AM

I don't think it usually takes them more than 2 or 3 days to record a song... from what she's written in her past TA messages anyway...

GRACE 8th November 2009 05:34 AM

^Right, what takes a long time is the mastering process and stuff, which is what I mean

brener 8th November 2009 05:35 AM

what I most want now is the covers

yuki_unmei 8th November 2009 05:57 AM

^ me too. i have faith in the songs already from the lyrics
now just to see those covers:meditate

polka-dot-jewel 8th November 2009 06:10 AM

I thought it took Ayu only a few hours to record songs? Haha. That's what she said when she recorded "momentum", but that was three years ago. lol.

When are PV airing announcements usually made? I want to say the her recent announcements of any PV airings have been made right before they air... at least, that's when they popped up on AHS, anyway. Hah.

Tony G 8th November 2009 06:29 AM

She records some songs fast, others slow. NEXT LEVEL was recorded over a couple of weeks, but her other albums have probably taken longer. Remember, she already has the compositions. Its a matter of her lyrics being applied to the music, and then arranged. So it can take a long time, or no time at all. Depends how fast ayu writes her lyrics and records/arranges.

She's probably done the recordings by now if she's making PVs...

And I'm hoping for an electro-tinged ballad, to kinda carry on with the sound of NEXT LEVEL and Sunrise. I don't want another Days or typical winter ballad. She's done it. Curtain call was great because it was different for her to make a 3:30-length ballad that kinda builds up, explodes and then ends. I want something like that again.

truehappiness 8th November 2009 06:29 AM

She probably had to do RED LINE recently. The other two were in the process of being recorded when she decided on adding that song to the single.

PV announcements generally come a day or two before the PV is to air. It's kind of random how/when they come about, so it's kind of hard to predict.

I'm thinking of time spent in the studio, hah. That's usually just a couple of hours (with the exception of a few songs, like "momentum"). Well... sometimes she has the composition. I think with "Sparkle", she had the lyrics ready, but they were deciding between which composition / arrangement to use. Same with "M" and other "I am..." songs, if I remember correctly.

I doubt she'll give away the RED LINE lyrics. I bet this'll be a big "THANK YOU!!" song... I wonder if it'll be the new "Who..." / "MY ALL" (as far as concert enders go).

truehappiness 8th November 2009 07:20 AM

I wonder if it'll be a ballad to go with the other songs? It'd be kind of nice if it wasn't so that it wouldn't be so ballad heavy, but I think I'm okay with her having three ballads since this is probably more ballads than her last two albums had combined, haha.

ayuky 8th November 2009 07:22 AM

I am so excited for this single

I kind of have the feeling that it'll be a ballad single like GREEN/Days was. Or maybe Red Line will be a soft pop song like NEXT LEVEL or MY ALL. I might be wrong but that's my hunch.

rusuke 8th November 2009 08:34 AM

I also think that Days was her last good ballad as far.

But I hope she'll return to her classic ballads...

ownsarai 8th November 2009 09:45 AM

I'm hoping that RED LINE will be something along the lines of MY ALL. That would be nice. Something touching, but not too slow.

Tony G 8th November 2009 10:30 AM

I don't want any winter bells. NO BELLS. >_<

Songs don't have to be created for seasons. I'm hoping its something you can listen to anytime of the year.

love in music 8th November 2009 10:40 AM

^ yes! i hope that too. although i don't really mind winter songs either.. but it feels odd listening to No way to say or Days any time other than the winter season (so i go for the acoustic/orchestra versions when it isn't winter)

ren0210989 8th November 2009 12:12 PM

OMG i love the lyrics :luv2
these 2 songs are gonna be epic!

the single will probably have the concept of Ayu's lonelyness with you were... and BALLAD, and then Red Line will be how TA and her fans make her trough the day ^^
