Party Queen previews now on Ayu's official site
Previews for Party Queen are out now.
http://www.avexnet.or.jp/ayu/jp/discography/index.html Enjoy! All of the songs sound incredible so far! The sound for this album seems very Western in a way. I put all of the previews into one mp3 for easy listening. 15.9MB, 8:42 MirrorCreator MediaFire Separate mp3s for each preview ripped by Foyuki in one RAR MirrorCreator MediaFire |
Someone put up for download? The site does not open here.
|
yaay! so happy she didn't disappoint me this time ^______^
|
I think it's hard for Ayu to disappoint normally, but that's just me, haha.
|
^ no, I remember how I was disappointed with ANother Song :laugh :laugh :laugh it grew on me though now
|
coolness thanks for this!

Okay, so too me the party Queen on the website sounds so much better than the radio rip... strange...
NaNaNa... sounds... epic! |

|
Shake it and NaNaNa really surprised me for good. I was waiting for horrid cutesy songs (which I have't liked since GUILTY), but this is too awesome. Can't wait for the album.
|
The only thing i don't like in Shake It♥ is the "shake it... shake it lala..."
the "lala" is really out of place and unneeded >_< But I'm in love with her looooooow voice :P |
I was really disappointed with her last few albums but the previews of this one sound GREAT! :D
Only one I hate is Party queen (it's one of my least favorite Ayu songs of all time... >_>) HBYA and Eyes, Smoke, Magic don't really do much to me either. But the rest of the previews sound awesome and I'm really happy for that. I actually really love all of them besides the 3 songs I mentioned, I am so surprised lol Best Ayu album for me since GUILTY |
I really have a good feeling about this album. I love almost all of the previews.
Am I the only one who thought the next LOVE sounded a bit like Pride? :O |

|
I love all these previews!!!! esp reminds me and Return Road!!!
|
wow! organ in Return Road *_* i read about it, but it sounds epic anyway
|
the next LOVE sounds like a James Bond soundtrack XD I love it
|
The previews should shut AHS members mouth close while they hate the album covers.
|
^ I honestly don't understand why it's so horrible to hate the covers. Personally, I judge the covers and the content separately. And I don't think it's right to judge people for disliking one aspect of the product/album.
|
^ You don't have to understand because here is AHS. Everything can happen here.
|
I don't like 10-13 tracks -_-
|
^
yup strange in this album =_= |
Wow this new album is very diverse sounding & some aspects of it remind of MY STORY, especially tracks 5-9. I'm actually quite surprised at how good the previews sound! I really didn't know what to expect, but I'm confident to say that I think this album is going to be pretty solid. I remember when I listened to the previews for Love songs I thought the songs sounded outdated & weird...but these are nothing of the sort! I also am liking how there are a lot of new songs on this album :yes.
I think my favorite previews were NaNaNa and call. & Omg the more I listen to Party queen the more it grows on me. I'm trying to hold off on listening to it though until next week when the album leaks :luv2. I think my only complaint was the interludes sounded lame...but normally I could care less about the interludes. |
THIS IS GOING TO BE HER BEST ALBUM IN YEARS HOLY ****ING ****!!!
This is EXACTLY the change I wanted to see from her. I can't even explain how happy I am. These previews are incredible. As expected, it isn't FULL of "party" songs, but the ones that are there sound incredible. I love the way the album starts off seemingly all happy and carefree, but gets really dark. It's a cool progression. The only songs I'm really not feeling are the next LOVE and Eyes, Smoke, Magic, but the rest sound like I could fall in love with any of them. |
OMG!
I am weeping tears of joy cos if the previews are anything to go by, this album is LEAPS and BOUNDS above anything she's released since My Story, possibly. I am SO glad that she ditched the cheap TK-esque techno sound that plagued more than half of Love Songs. The first couple of 'Party' songs sound fantastic, there's a good dose of the rock stuff she does so well. Tracks 11 and 12 sound possibly a little out of place (imagine how epic this album could have been if they'd replaced them with Sparkle and Lady Dynamite instead!). I absolutely cannot wait to hear this album performed live. |

NaNaNa sound amazing. loving the arrangment.
call is gosh too. loving the guitar and her voice! reminds me brought me to tears.. Return Road is going to be epic i am sure.. pure majestic just from the preview the next LOVE is something different and unique from her discography.. can;t wait for the full song.. I think this album is gonna be Amazing!!! so excited!! a million times better than next level and love songs, judging from just the previews =) Track 5-9 is definitely the best section of the album i feel so far. Track 1-3 are the party vibes. not so sure of Track 11-12 so far but it's fresh and different. But I'm definitely loving everything i'm hearing so far!! |
Is this album yet? I mean, seriously. How could you Ayu :P
|
Hmm, I don't really like 2-4 (so far, might grow on me of course), but I like 4-8, lalala in 'reminds me' is cool :)
Return Road is THE SONG of the album, just like 'Microphone' in R'n'R Circus and 'Love Song' in Love Songs :) Love 'Tell me why', very old Ayu style. the next love is weird a bit, dunno, Eyes, Smoke, Magic sounds like it was supposed to be another SLT or really some jazz song, not my type but I may like it. the cup of tea is really good and surprising, I expected some violin, not that electro sound serenade is meh.. don't like it Too bad shake it and nanana have PVs, I'd love to see any of 5 to 12, good that return road at least has it |
I like Eyes, Smoke, Magic simply because it has that burlesque-showgirl-strip tease feel lol
|
I would love a PV for the next LOVE... in a cabaret, Ayu on stage the same climax as in GREEN PV, and a lot of RED all along the video !
|
Woww....
Almost love all the tracks on this album, my fave track in this album is return road... Cant wait for this album... |
yeah, I can imagine burlesque performance for Eyes Smoke Magic %)
|
sekai wa kira kira.... i can't stop listening to previews, lol
|
Oh gosh, the interludes are terrible lol That's the bad out of the way!
NaNaNa and Shake It I'm neutral too, I need the full things. I like the sound of call, very MY STORY. I like this midtempo rock sound - I'm not a big fan of rock Ayu, I like it when she does this style though. Letter sounds good too. reminds me is VERY Ayu! Not a fan of the main part of Return Road (shock!), but that instrumental part it goes into sounds divine! Intrigued for the full thing. the next Love sounds okay, and Eyes, Smoke, Magic sounds interesting...? She wasn't joking when she said musical, it's never this full out when she says a song is in a certain style. Only one piano/string ballad too, but eh, she more than made up for it in midtempo rock songs. I don't like HBYA. Sounds good, think I'll like it more than everything since GUILTY, but I don't know if it will top Love Songs for me. Some songs on that were just TOO amazing, even if some were crap. Seems there is no "fan song" on here, yaaay! |
Am I the only one who like Shake it<3 so much lol.
I can already imagine this song gonna rock on stage! |
I don't know what to think about the previews... I don't know why I keep listening to Ayu's previews before the songs are out, 'cause I listen to the previews and think they're just ok, and then the album comes out and I totally love the full songs... It's weird, but it always happen with me when Ayu releases a new album.
So, as usual, I'll just ignore the previews from now on and wait for the whole album to come out, then I can judge <3 But I can already say that the interludes sound amazing *-* |
I love every single preview! :heart
Why that girl is soooo awesome?.. She never disappoints me! I'm so happy being a fan of Ayu! :) |
Everything sounds simply amazing and I want to see her perform these live. (Well, listen to them, hahaha.)
These songs are all MADE for performing live, my god. |
I'm most intrigued by NaNaNa :)
And call :) But I'm excited to hear them all! Eyes, Smoke, Magic -really- surprised me, lol. |
to bad no news about TV performance for this album..
I hope ayu will perform reminds me, return road, HBYA, Party Queen, Tell me Why... is that too much? :D |
Quote:
|
Like a doll followed by Tell me why would be epic live.
|
These songs would go so well with MY STORY live.
Let's hope she performs all the Party Queen songs with Liar in there too :p |
I totally love what I hear. What the full album now!!
|
Quote:
Goodness, I can't believe she hasn't performed Liar yet. Is that the only track from MY STORY that has gone unperformed? |
PQ sounds soooooo much better in those previews than any leak, which were FLAT.
Still think 'Return Road' will be my favorite off of this album. |
^ yes! Im glad im not the only one that things that!
|
I already start to like nanana :)
Shake it too, guess I really needed another listening, although that olailai is a bit weird call reminds me of a Kuu song, don't remember the name, that at some point goes 'mecha mecha' (edit: Love Holic) :p |
someone at twitter found this
seems Tell me why is a cover song? for me it most favorite preview |
This one is available worldwide. It does sound very much the same. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalokairi_Stin_Kardia Producers are listed here. |
Quote:
However, I would still buy Party Queen because the covers are not horrible, though the execution could've been better. |
i dont think it is a cover, it just sounds very similar.
|
Quote:
The melody is the exact same down to the 'woah woah woahs' though. |
it better to be cover than stolen song
|
Probably bought the melody from the same person.
|
They'll probably credit the original composers. Ayu's never used a European group's compositions outside of Sweetbox's/GEO's huh?
|
Wow, I was nearly brought to tears by how amazing the previews of these songs start. I don't think I've been so excited about an album's potential since I am...
I hope I'm not setting myself up for major disappointment LOL The only songs I'm really not impressed with are Party Queen/Call/How Beautiful You Are |
Quote:
|
Someone should be amazing and upload the previews to YouTube. I can't figure out for the life of me how to get out of the mobile site for Ayu's website and I can't access a computer with sound. I'm literally dying with anticipation! Help please!! :3
|
Quote:
Its the same thing with the song Tasking, that's not a cover nor a copy, it just sounds very similar. I'm not going to say that it's a cover nor that it is not, because we don't know. Lets wait for the credits before jumping off the deep end. |
Quote:
For this song, it's the entire snippet we got down to her 'woah woah woahs' and I doubt Ayu plagiarized from the Greek producers. |
So I just listened to "a cup of tea" again. Does that instrumental have dubstep in it???
|
Quote:
I think it does. Unless my definition of dubstep is skewed. It even has the drops! HAHAHA. |
everything sounds amazing. favorite previews are NaNaNa, Shake It♥, Return Road, Tell me why, the next LOVE, Eyes, Smoke, Magic. once again she is experimenting and trying out new sounds. she never stays in one place. i love this woman.
|
Quote:
|
Is it just me, or does this album sound a little bit experimental? I like it. :) I can't wait to read the lyric translations for call and Letter, as they seem to be influenced by her divorce. the next LOVE and Eyes, Smoke, Magic sound like they should be on an album of their own, lol. This album is going to be amazing. I'm so exciteddddd~!
|
^ I too like what she is doing.
I hope this is a great direction for her in the future! |
Quote:

i pretty much don't like most of the stuff she did latelly, but I gotta say my words "c'mmon Ayu, proove me wrong, surprise me" came true....the snippets...I love every single one of them. It's so familiar to what made me fall in love with her music. Thank you Ayu.
Oh and the theme of the party queen... It's like even from the snippets, you can kinda see the pattern the dancy stuff, fakeness (I mean even the arrangements have so much digital crap which is obviously NOT REAL) and superficial..then it slowly turns into the darker and darker reality with rich arangements and REAL instruments, almost like she's at some point expressing the anger or how she isn't what people think she is... and eventually the end becomes lighter and lighter kinda like saying "i still have happy moments, and I thank to those who stick with me no matter what everyone is talking about me".....:) |
Quote:
|
Hmm... I don't know, what to think about this previews.
I totally dislike Shake it, the next LOVE and Eyes, Smoke, Magic. I absolutly don't like this style of music. Burlesque.. Big Bang.. Swing... what ever it is. So.. I don't like it. And I don't care about interludes. HBYA is greate! And I really like Party Queen. I need to listen the others songs full, to judge about it. |
NaNaNA is like, what all of NEXT LEVEL should have been.
I don't really like her vocals for Shake It. Damn, totally wanted something more middle eastern for taskebab lol oh well. This one actually reminds me of here... Someone mentioned Koda earlier, and well, Call reminds me of a koda song. Letter has an interesting composition that flows nicely, and I think I'm gonna come to like it a lot. reminds me...sounds typical ayu I guess. I'm sure it'll be a lot more epic with better sound. return road - Don't know if it's wise to put these two songs together cause they sound a lot alike, but I guess they do go together. Tell me why....I think I'll be listening to this song. :heart even with those dumb woah things. a cup of tea - I love it. omg. the next LOVE - why hello jazzy ayu! :luv2 LoL but the wow...idk about that. I hope she doesn't make it too cheesy Eyes....oh...spoke too soon. I don't know. I get it, but I don't know. Serenade - and hello gorgeous ayu. Officially excited. These songs actually kind of remind me of Namie songs in the idea that, Namie once talked about how she likes to make songs that will be fun live...and well, these are such live songs. Except for maybe two or three. |
I kind of wish that the next LOVE and Eyes, Smoke, Magic had PVs or at least one musical inspired PV. I wasn't fussed that there were only 4 PVs but now that we have the previews....I want moar!
|
Is it just me, or does the beginning of PQ sound like the "***** eye for straight guy" theme? =P
|
ooh I love the "oh lai lai lai oh lai lai lai" in Shake It!!
The first 3 tracks should have been what NEXT LEVEL was all about. I love the melody for Letter, and I wasn't expecting much from that song! Return Road, of course, I'm digging the melody~ The Next LOVE..wow..her vocals...are very good.. I think this album will surpass everyone's expectations.. wow, this album sounds even more Western than I expected, but definitely still retains that whole "Ayu" feel. Her vocals seem much improved! From what I can tell, it's very experimental but still cohesive. |
I'm dying to see Return Road PV now. Sounds like it would have an epic PV
|
Quote:
I think you hit the nail on the head..!!!! |
Thank you so much for letting us know that the previews are now available on the site! I love all of the previews and can't wait until I receive the album so I can hear all the songs in full! Ayu has never disappointed me so I'm sure this album is going to be awesome!
|
Yes, the cup of tea does have "dubstep" in it.
And yes, I do feel resembles with MY STORY (kinda) And someone heard the similarity/atmosphere between the next LOVE and Pride, yeah, i hear it now, but Pride was less jazzy/cabaret |
Quote:
|
maybe thats why a cup of tea is not... my cup of tea?
I dont care for dubstep or the jazz elements... those three tracks are a little lack luster to me |
^ Oh come on, the next LOVE reminds me now of Micheal Buble's ver of Feeling Good XDDDDDDDDDDD
|
NaNaNa : something like Until that day /ladies night ! :luv2
Shake It♥ : Her voice is very strong I love these Shake it shake shake love love o lai lai o lai ... ! call I did not imagine this kind of music after the comments of the TA it(s not my favorite but not bad ^^ Letter very cool ! reminds me :luv2:luv2 absolutely my tastes Return Road oh i'm already crazy of this song her voice here is perfect certainly the more beautifull voice of this album and one of her best song in years :love Tell me why very emotional :scry the next LOVEvery innovative and very powerful voice i think i could love this song in full ^^ Eyes, Smoke, Magic too short very different too ! Definitely a great album :love Ayu after these years can always surprise us !!! |
Return Road is Microphone part II! My wish came true :D
call- I get a Last Links vibe from this one. Letter- See "call" :laugh Tell me why- Not surprised it's a cover, sounds like it could be on (m)u. The "hahaha"s sound like the ones in HANABI :yes |
I died, went to heaven, chillin with Jesus, listening to these previews over and over again.

I don't see the MY STORY comparisons all that much musically, yes, it's a bunch of midtempo rocksongs in a row, but that's where the similarities stop lol These sound far more interesting than the ones on MY STORY, those were quite generic, good songs but...anyone could have released them.
This album seems to be her most diverse one so...yay :D |
^ most diverse was (m)u, but I can't comparise anything to m(u) since it's a masterpiece (0 bad songs ;d)
|
This is more diverse than (m)u. If you find it better or not is another thing, but (m)u wasn't all that diverse looking at the actual genres and genre mixes present, the vast majority of it was rather generic, just somewhat new to Ayu.
|
NaNaNa - LOVE THIS. So energized! Reminds me a tiny bit of Last Angel in a weird way.
Shake It♥ - Cute; but not a favorite. Probably has to grow on me. call - Was kinda disappointed; read this made someone cry. Might have something to do with the "woah woah" and "yeah yeah" in the background >_> Letter - I'm undecided about this. A bit too much western-feel on it. reminds me - LOVE LOVE LOVE. The "La-la-la" at the end gave me goosebumps. Return Road - Probably my favorite song so far. Reminds me of kiss o' kill which is my 2nd fav after Last Angel. Tell me why - I can actually see the PV in my head. Ayu sitting and looking down at her balled fist while she's singing. Nothing WOW about this song, but I like it. the next LOVE - Very James-bond themed like some other people said. Absolutely not my style. Eyes, Smoke, Magic - Very happy burlesqueish type of song. Not my thing either. |
Quote:
|
Probably. But the woah woah yeah yeah thing was really.. bad
|
All the previews sound so good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't know where to start lol. |
Wanted to resist but just couldn't lol!
Tell me why and Return Road are EPIC :) :) :) |
I loveeeeeeeeeee NaNaNa and Tell Me Why ....cannot wait for full versions!
|
Somehow the background in call reminds me of S/S!! :P
|
hmm....
Party Queen - makes me think of "rollin'" NaNaNa - Unite, Naturally Shake it♥ - kinda LOVE'n'HATE wibe there call - Last Links + NEXT LEVEL Letter - blossom reminds me - because of you, GAME Return road - definitelly kiss'o'kill Tell me why - coundown, criminal the next LOVE - Pride Eyes, Smoke, Magic - Sexy Little Things hbya - beloved |
NaNaNa just gave me a freaking eargasm, omg it's just beyond epic! it's like Connected on crack.
Return Road, Shake It, Call, Letter & Reminds Me sound so amazing too, I'M BLOWN AWAY BY THIS ALBUM! The Next LOVE and tell me why are the only previews that didn't so much to me yet. |
http://i41.tinypic.com/1zxxe8z.jpg
Only managed to get this one, the video was ending when I turned KeyHoleTv on >_< From the little I watched, I think Ayu and Timmy were dancing quite fiercely! |
