She looks soooo beautiful, like a princess or a queen :D

In contrast to the PQ cover behind her xD I bet she explained the meaning of it and all :P


Thanks for those pictures!

RayJason 26th March 2012 01:41 PM

and wow! She's so unexpected~

freedreamer 26th March 2012 01:58 PM

wowww its been so long since something like that is done...she's reaching out to the masses in a different way this time. not thru music shows itself. hopefully this will make people actually want to hear the lyrics and not just for the music

Exactly what I thought and I'm totally loving it! I'm getting this old-school-Ayu-vibe from it. I'm totally agreeing to Ayu doing these kind of things again. :yes

AyuWorld 26th March 2012 02:21 PM

aaaaaah yessss!!! its been awhile we didnt see ayu's traveling and meeting fans like this! so people can feel closer to her and would have been interested for the album!! come on guys PQ,listen to it first and then judge it =p

RayJason 26th March 2012 03:49 PM

as much as I love the cover, lol it is so awkward like talking in front of a huge billboard of Ayu in lingerie

they should have just used the one where is staring at some icecube and laughing for promo

tokyoxjapanxfan 26th March 2012 04:49 PM

The only thing I thought was very...Avex was that in order to see Ayu closer, you have to buy a copy of the CD at the venue. Any version is fine, but you have to buy one or sit far away, lol.

Well, If I remember it right, Oricon doesn't count all the sales from concerts or promotional events... As some labels were using those to cheat

jewelbox 26th March 2012 09:11 PM

Yey! she's finally doing some PR :D

tenshi no hane 27th March 2012 12:14 PM

SURREAL__RAINBOW 27th March 2012 01:26 PM

I had it recorded, BUT the content is protected, because of that playback is not possible.

You can watch it at the GyaO website (streaming) if you use a Japanese proxy.

This japanese blog that I follow seems to have updated a few videos from Ayu's Live Talks.

Here: http://ameblo.jp/mina19770728/

I can't view them from my phone, can anyone let me know if they really are Live Talks and if they work viewing them from outside Japan?

Zemus 28th March 2012 02:58 PM

Thank you very much. That's the GyaO live talk split into several clips and uploaded to YouTube.

And hoodies.

She's not the rolemodel the Japanese want; but she got the style they love

ot but that is the most adorable couple ever. ugh they need to be having babies.

lol oh god no man

even Kumi's JAPONESQUE is not sold here & the album was released way back in Jan , it's that BAD D:

Best solution's to order the OS press of Party Queen online . On the other hand , my dad's going to collect my copy tomorrow at the post office :D

toniayu 30th March 2012 06:39 PM

Just saw the album DVD.
My favorite PV is Shake it<3 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!And the four songs are really nice,especially Shake it and NaNaNa

ayumisrael 30th March 2012 09:13 PM

PoM and CDL11-12 were great!! The arrangements in PoM were all ON TOP definitely.

The CDL had a great tracklist, ayu had good vocals and when November started I thought I died and reached to heaven (the performance and arrangement, o-m-g).

I LOVE Sparkle.

~angel*ayumi~ 30th March 2012 09:32 PM

ahhhhhhhhhhhhh...... The ayupan ap does not work for my smartphone ._. (ok itīs my mumīs one, but still it doesnīt work) I hate you avex <.<

Sorry, but Kenji has already sown his seed on that farmland :laugh They do look cute, though. Kuu deserves more respect in J-Pop. She's inspired more than any other singer.

I'm curious to watch Power of Music.

Pieces_of_SEVEN 31st March 2012 04:50 PM

^^I was disappointed by it, because of all the different arrangements. Sigh.

Listening to "Party queen" now :)

ayu_ready? 1st April 2012 10:42 AM

I love PoM :)

TeamAyu2004 1st April 2012 03:22 PM

PoM is amaing! I have been listening to the live for a few days now!

Pieces_of_SEVEN 1st April 2012 03:49 PM

Maybe I'll give them another chance, but the jazz just turns me off completely. lol

freedreamer 1st April 2012 05:43 PM

I can't believe Shake It is receiving the most plays for me from the album HAHAHA!! i mean, i would expect myself to love Return Road more musically and all, it suits me better but..maybe sometimes its just too heavy. I'm pleasantly surprised myself :) (i think I really do love Shake It a lot XD)

Pieces_of_SEVEN 1st April 2012 06:07 PM

I have the most plays on Party queen, NaNaNa, Shake it, Return Road, and Tell me why!

Delicious n Bold 1st April 2012 08:15 PM

For me, each song has about 38 plays.
I guess I really do love the album as a whole.

isthisLOL? 1st April 2012 08:16 PM

Return Road has around 200 plays from me by now...most other tracks are between 20 and 50.

Pieces_of_SEVEN 1st April 2012 08:24 PM

I'm between 40-50 for each, except the next LOVE and Eyes, Smoke, Magic, which have one. LOL #sadtimes

Delicious n Bold 1st April 2012 08:32 PM

^ you don't like the next LOVE?
I think Ayu's voice is perfect for such a song

Pieces_of_SEVEN 1st April 2012 08:35 PM

^^Maybe it is, I don't have an opinion on that, I just really can't stand tnL or E, S, M. I don't like jazz at all.

tnL is more tolerable for me than E, S, M, though, but both are horrible to me.

TeamAyu2004 1st April 2012 08:36 PM

the next love is just so different for me...
I dont like jazz, but the song is growing on me.
Eyes Smoke Magic is horrible though

Delicious n Bold 1st April 2012 08:37 PM

^ Really? I hate jazz so much but I just love this song
Maybe I'm just a suck for Ayu :P

Pieces_of_SEVEN 1st April 2012 08:43 PM

^^So am I ... I rarely dislike ANYTHING from her. and I almost NEVER find a song from her to be unlistenable, but Eyes, Smoke, Magic is the first. oh well.

I just hope she never does any jazz again lol

Delicious n Bold 1st April 2012 08:53 PM

^ What about A Song For XX (album)?
It's the only album I CANNOT stand.
It's kind of like how much you hate Eyes, Smoke, Magic.

Pieces_of_SEVEN 1st April 2012 08:55 PM

^^I don't mind that album at all! There are certain tracks I don't really care for, but I LOVE these:

FRIEND II
Present
A Song for XX
Depend on you
poker face
POWDER SNOW
As if...

...I can't stand from your letter ... it's on the same level as E, S, M for me.

jbrat2219 1st April 2012 09:02 PM

I definitely want her to do jazz again.

Pieces_of_SEVEN 1st April 2012 09:04 PM

^^ :thud

*dies*

RayJason 1st April 2012 09:14 PM

My top played Party Queen tracks are; Return Road, NaNaNa and how beautiful you are according to my last.fm:

http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/...amloos-1-1.jpg

I just LOVE Return Road for it's epicness, HATE the Timmy part, but I got used to it now. Same goes for NaNaNa, only difference is that Timmy is like the main artist, I still hate his 'rap' so anticlimatic in every possible way. I LOVE ayu on this track though :D, the arrangement is superB too! And then we have hbya, it's cool I guess, I like what Timmy did to this. I even like the choir... + NO JAZZ PREASE! NOT VERI SHEKSI

TeamAyu2004 1st April 2012 09:20 PM

i hope she has gotten the jazz out of her system as well..
Im in the same boat of because it being Ayumi I tend to like it, but ESM, its just so out there..
Her song for xx album I tend to never listen to, i have done it once, long ago, but i havent looked back... i might give it another try.

Pieces_of_SEVEN 1st April 2012 09:22 PM

OMG. Have you really listened to M over eleven thousand times?!

I actually have a question for you about last.fm. Gonna PM you.

relmy 1st April 2012 09:23 PM

I won't go into the maths, but you obviously haven't listened to Return Road 9800 times, that's over A MONTH of listening to it non-stop. We haven't even had the leak a month. :S

My most played track is NaNaNa with 5 plays. The rest have 3 or 4.

Yeah, I don't like the album much. :S

Pieces_of_SEVEN 1st April 2012 09:24 PM

^^Unless he left it on repeat overnight while sleeping...LOL but why?

relmy 1st April 2012 09:28 PM

^ it's still impossible. It's anal, but it pisses me off when people feel the need to create silly song counts on last.fm. Just... why? lol

Make the counts 9000, make the song 5 mins. 750 hours of one song, that's over a month of the song if it's left on for 24 hours a day. It's impossible. He's obviously shortens the track for play counts.

Again, why do people do that? lol

Pieces_of_SEVEN 1st April 2012 09:32 PM

^^Yeah, I agree with you...I like being able to view my charts and knowing that they're real...it's interesting to know what I've listened to and how often. haha

relmy 1st April 2012 09:34 PM

^ yeah, my MP3 is weird and counts listening to as little as 1 sec of the song as a playcount. When I scrobble I usually delete a few plays of each song to compensate for skipping, I'm that paranoid about my charts hahaha

Pieces_of_SEVEN 1st April 2012 09:37 PM

^^My iPod Touch hasn't scrobbled anything at all in a while and I've been trying to figure out why. #sadtimes

LOL If that annoys you then I don't want to know what makes you mad :thud... I removed Timmy's choir part which makes the length; 2:37. And sometimes when I scrobble from my phone (Android) it scrobbles 2x instead of 1. Sometimes it scrobbles when I played a song for like 4 seconds or something. And YES LOL I leave my computer on each night and it happens that I have those song on the whole night :mgagged.

My last.fm is pretty accurate except for the big numbers. M is my all-time favorite track, and Return Road is followed by it. :eviltongu

Pieces_of_SEVEN 1st April 2012 09:41 PM

^^Still, I was so surprised at 11k plays. LOL my charts are a little crazy though too. I think ALL of my top played tracks are ayu. Gonna go check.

Yeah...lol
