new digital single: 『how beautiful you are』 in February

I wouldn't mind that.

a valentine's day single ;-)

I want remixes! lol

^ Please NO, that song is boring as hell, I need something better

^^But it would probably get the attention of the japanese public, being a cheesy piano ballad and all. would probably be a good choice to promote the album. maybe even more so if it were paired with an upbeat song.

I wouldn't be surprised it they did Party Queen c/w How Beautiful You Are lol

Yeah, I agree. It's not my thing, but I know it'd be popular in Japan!!! I want something completely new!

LOL so lovely!!! but...ayu please no more ballads,we had enough with ''Love songs'' and ''FIVE'' xD but ''how beautiful you are'' is so beautiful title :love

^I agree! There have been perhaps too many ballads lately! I want some fun stuff to dance to and feel good!

I wish she returns to the classics songs but also I desire something like Cyber Trance hahaha

Neither Love Songs nor FIVE had many ballads. They had many midtempo songs which is a pretty big difference, ballads: beloved, Virgin Road...I can't think of any more true ballads. If you strech the definition MOON as rockballad and November, crossroad and Why... as midtempo leaning towards ballad a bit could be thrown in, but that's still not more than Ayumi usually has. Most melodies however are not ballady, even if the songs are not upbeat.

Having some more actual ballads, like how beautiful you are, would be a pretty big change and I'd look forward to a ballad-heavy album. I missed ballads on the albums after Rock n Roll Circus

Hope we will have something like "Sparkle" in the new single or album! :D

^ Yep.. I wants lots of fast songs!

^ yes me too...
I hope there will be lots of upbeat songs in the new album...

I want a Rule v 2.0...
haha :)

:haha
:yes
That's definitely true...

i wish she could make a dark but upbeat album~ i.e. alterna+ourselves type!

wow so it's confirmed that How beautiful you are will be released as a digital single in February?

this lack of official infos is driving me nuts =x

Yay! I want to have the iTunes Plus AAC version!
