i hope the videos she has been working on are for the album and not the tour.. that would be sad for me, lol.

I have to admit I will be disappointed if the pink wig + green contacts pictures were for filming of tour videos. I really loved that look, I want it in some kind of booklet/book/cover!

look what I randomly found:

isnt that the factory for the pv?

It looks like it could have been a PV shoot -and- some sort of photoshoot. Masashi Muto was present as were Leslie and Ryan.

That would be pretty amazing if the HOTEL Love songs main visual ends up being her with the pink hair!

And that is the factory that Return Road[?] was filmed in. I can't wait to see that PV! I think people ID'd it a while back as the Battersea Power Station. The shoot also lasted 20 hours apparently.

@pepper : MORIARTYYYYY :love

I guess i'm the only one who doesn't want covers to be out because i decided not to look at them till i receive my copy on early April which means that when they're out i'll have to refrain myself from going here (because obviously they're going to be everywhere). Yeah so it also means i'll probably don't know about which songs are interludes, about the additional PVs and everything till April either, exciting and frustrating at the same time, haha.
On this album i'd like dance songs and epic rockish songs, i'd like at least one dark song too, i love them so muuuuch, the only thing i absolutely don't want is mid-tempo songs.

I hope those shootings were actual PVs and not for the tour as well, but, 7 PVs would be too much i think...

7 would actually be just right. She usually has a very close number of video clips per album when compared to the number of tracks.

(miss)understood - 16 tracks - 16 video clips (9 PVs, 6 makings, 1 album version)
Secret - 14 tracks - 14 video clips (7 PVs, 7 makings)
GUILTY - 14 tracks - 13 video clips (1 short movie, 5 PVs, 7 makings)
NEXT LEVEL - 14 tracks - 12 video clips (6 PVs, 6 makings)
Rock'n'Roll Circus - 15 tracks - 17 video clips (8 PVs, 8 makings, 1 digest)
Love songs - 16 tracks - 15 video clips (8 PVs, 7 makings)
FIVE - 5 tracks - 10 video clips (5 PVs, 5 makings)

I made the list a while ago, haha.

If she really has 7, it would be like...

Party Queen - 14 tracks - 14 video clips (7 PVs, 7 makings)

Just for some more info, the guy who styled for the factory PV said it was the 'worst shoot he has ever worked on' probably because it was so LONG. They shot two scenes for the PV in 14 hours. Here's a shot he took at 2:30am. It must be torture to work with Ayu sometimes... haha.

Oh hey, it's the drummer from Sexy little things/Microphone! There's a performance in the control room. Lastly, here are the drones that are in the PV. Most of these are just full sized versions of the pictures we had before.

I can wait for the covers as long as they're making more pvs :innocent

7 is a really good number... but i am a little surprised because of the no singles thing...

I guess "no mid-tempo" songs isn't going to happen for Ayu. But I hope it will be just one song, but obviously with none of them I will be in heaven. And I don't need any more ballads from Ayu, I have PLENTY of em. I like only slow Ayu songs, when they are soft like HANABI/HAPPY ENDING or very dark like criminal. I guess I'm not "cute-Ayu" type.

attractive nausea - YES MORIARTY <3

If the PV will be anything in the atmosphere of the instagram photos.. IT WILL BE TOTALLY SOMETHING I WILL LOVE.
control room means a rock song I guess (drumms.)

yeah, Battersea Power Station. It's an old disused coal power station, it's a heritage site because it's all Art Deco and stuff.

edit; oops, someone responded already lol

Looks like no new video.

Limited box does in fact come with two glasses and coasters.

soooooo
tomorrow's March 1st!
covers please?????

^ take a look. tokyoxjapan already posted them.

^ oh

"Oh", is right! xD

glad that i can probably listen to the album to the end because hbya is totally stunning to me. looping it ever since 1st Jan lol.

I really don't like the "Party Queen" covers...especially the first one (CD+DVD+DVD).
I mean....yes, Ayu changes her image from time to time, but THIS is definitely too much and not like ayu. My parents will think that I'm buying asian pornos.

A cover like R'n'RC would have been way better. I'm honestly thinking about canceling my order just because of the cover, cause I'm not paying nearly 200 euros just to hide this big limited box in my closet, so that nobody thinks I'm watching pornos o_O

That's weird...

If she didn't film new PVs for the album... are they for an upcoming single?

^ Maybe it's for Party Queen part 2 ;) The "second album" she wanted to make. ;););) haha.
