I agree about JEWEL. That would be so perfect in Orchestral form <3

oh and don't forget the performance of HEAVEN on Music Station too! like JEWEL it was the Piano Version accompanied by strings. if they make a studio version of that it can definitely replace the Piano Version :)

I'd rather see ballads turned into rock or more poppish~

I would love it if the orchestra album will include a few tracks from live performances! like those good performance from HEY!HEY!HEY! or music station or wherever.. I always find those lives were good and it is always goood to listen to Ayu live, it's very emotional and I like that. =]

She's in good condition to re-sing Haru Yo Koi with the orchestra set, too. I am not biased because it's her, but the one we have from Ayu is my absolute favorite version of that song; also her most impressive vocal "flex," if you will. I love it, even though the quality of all rips is kinda questionable.

Also, who wants Hanabi Episode II on there? :laugh I can't believe I forgot to mention I craved it.

She has enough Orchestra versions to make an album. Add Momentum and Sexy little things and it be awesome.

I'd kill small puppies and children in front of their mothers to have another orchestra album, but in the vein of epicness that was MSC. Just think back to PCDL's "Heartplace" performance: the strings and the growing tension and emotion just building and building -- absolutely gorgeous, IMO. Granted it still had the rock instruments in it, but I feel the strings were a bit louder or more prevalent in that live version.

I once thought that if she were to do another classical album, it'd probably be with R'n'RC songs, but since we're falling into the tail end of the year and we've had orchestral releases for some R'n'RC songs, and no accompanying classical album, I guess that's not exactly likely xD;

Ah, maybe for next year~









I STILL WANT AN A BALLADS 2 >|

YES! I've seen this being brought up a few times, and I so want her to do a new orchestra/classic album. Just as magnificent as MY STORY. Imo that album was perfect for that.

I think if she made GUILTY into an orchestra album, it would make more people discover that album's true beauty. Heck, she should make orchestra albums of all of her albums...

Yeah, I'm quite interested for "Jewel" in orchestra version in some kind of a release, thank you. The only time we did those was three times on television...

^ Preeeeeeach. GUILTY is one of my favorite Ayu albums and it saddens me that people don't like it so much, so I think an orchestra album would help people see just how gorgeous that album can be/is. Of course people have their own opinions, and it's actually quite refreshing to hear what they think about things I love, but at the same time I can't help but be a little confused and amazed at the differences in taste XD

@InoriNoUta Ikr?! I'm so happy that December 2006 was the time when I got "back on track" and rediscovered Ayumi. I think that may have added to my love for GUILTY, since it came out shortly after that. That being said: IT IS an AMAZING ALBUM. No matter what. And I actually love the title track, it's one of my favorites on that album. I hope I'm not the only one sharing that love for it :thud

And wow, JEWEL would be epic as a classical ver. It's made for that!

I forgot about heartplace. That would be epic. I think if we just stripped it down to the mad violins and orchestra, it would be as amazing as Game "Classical". One of those songs that is meant to have an orchestra version.

^
GAME classical ver. was like the biggest surprise to me ever. It was the one song on the classic album that I had my doubts about, and when I heard it, it was my favorite. And it still is.

Kanzaki: YOU AREN'T ALONE! I feel like the title track is one of her best ;_; And I don't understand why people think it's dull or bad. It feels so hollow and cold to me -- like someone who isn't sure of her/his emotions, so they're at a crossroad inside their heart and it's just.. very stark, that song. Like you're on trial.

omg yes. yes yes yes. Heartplace classical would be the surprise ultra awesome GAME classical ;___;

Yeah really! especially with MY STORY... when i saw GAME on the list i was thinking "well then, why not put About You then? it's impossible!" then i heard it and was mistaken haha

and i second, or whatever number were on, the demend for a Heartplace Orchestra Version! that's what my ears go to towards the end of the song!
