I haven't enjoyed an album from ayu this much since NEXT LEVEL really.

Exactly what im feeling, there were always some songs that i would skip from her previous albums since (miss)understood, but party queen is just flawless, amazing !! Too bad for those people who doesnt enjoy this masterpiece

I always skip some songs on her albums, exceptions are Duty and LOVEppears. That doesn't mean I don't like the album. On Party Queen I noticed that I kept skipping call and Letter (+interludes..). I don't dislike the songs, I just prefer other songs on this albums way more.
And about RR PV:Ayu's PV's are rarely mind blowing. Like dearest, evolution, HEAVEN etc. are good songs but PV's are boring. RR PV is somewhat a disappointment for me but NaNaNa is her worse PV ever.

I actually really liked RR PV. It breathed the old Ayu for me. Alot of with symbolism and nice scenes. Also I have always been a fan of Masashi Muto's work. I loved loved loved what he did for Microphone, SLT and my fav You were... :heart He have a very nice understanding on how to convey a special feeling to his work.

Haha yeah... I kind of want to keep the smashing piano part though. I want the song exactly as it just just without that darn chanting. Both in the middle eight and in the last chours.

You can try it and see if it works?

Someone please tell me where Ayu said that these tracks/PVs/whatever were not related to her marriage. I am fairly certain she NEVER SAID THAT. In fact, she was very honest about some of the songs being related to her divorce and what she felt because of it.

Thx! I'll try that one and see how it turns out!

I think that people started these speculations about Ayu denying is when we got some key words from tokyoxjapanxfan when he translated the SCawaii interview and wrote "Return Road and Virgin Road have no relation, even though many people have asked her.". I think it was after that people started saying that she denied the relation with the divorce.

just my speculation.

Yeah this is what I'm thinking too. Also the whole thing "only the two of us will know what really happend" kind of thing gets quite clear imo.

I'll buy regular version when I come to Japan.

Haha ikr. xD Lucky for me I didn't have to choose since I went to the dentist this month and it was waaaay expensive so I had to cancel my box order. I'm actually more and more happy that I did though. The covers/size of the box/overprized goods would have made me cancel the order either way so. I'm gonna do just like you. Buy the regular edition of the album when I move back to Tokyo this summer instead. :yes

Yes, I'm waiting eagerly~ I'm sure I'll love this album a lot <3 Nice to see that so many seem to enjoy a lot~

I'm still bemused that reminds me is the longest track yet essentially only consists of 1 verse and 2 choruses.

Also I set my iTunes to start playing RR at 0:10 so it starts off with the organ. :D

CHAS_AYU 15th March 2012 10:54 AM

The Special Party Queen photobook will be delayed.

I know right? She could add on 2 more minutes of LA LA LA LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA LA LA LA and I wouldn't complain.

Status of my order is "processing". Hopefully it will be shipped before the release date, 'cause I wanna listen to this al so bad (not downloading iTunes version, patiently waiting for my box to arrive).

Does anyone else hate the way the music pretty much comes to a stop in Party Queen for everyone to say Kumpie! (is that how its spelled?)

"Kampai" lol



I'm really enjoying the album! I just gotta find the PVs online now... don't really feel like downloading there, err...

If it's the box set, it's normal i think. The transit of big items takes way more time that the regular packages' one.

Maemi 15th March 2012 01:12 PM

Is it possible to watch those new PVs somewhere online?

Didz-19 15th March 2012 01:26 PM

I'm missing the radio rip of Party Queen..."Tokyo FM. Tokyo FM"!! LOL

AHHH Mine's is IN STOCK! so after this comes Processing and then In Shipping Process and then Shipped right? lol
My POM is Processing though...

Maemi 15th March 2012 01:43 PM

I watched it. The PV is so... useless :thud And those camera angles are so annoying. It would have been better if they actually had anything interesting in it - not even dance moves or their clothes are of any interest to me :(

It's such a pity because I like the song :)
