btw, any reviews for recent album?
last one I saw was for Love songs

I wonder what the booklet will look like...

I'm also curious about the booklet. For some reason, I can't picture in my mind any concept for this album's pics. Hopefully not the bed one again.

I'm curious for both the booklet and the damn TA box. Please show it to us already avex D:

I wonder what Anything for you is going to sound like and why we haven't heard a preview yet... I pretty much love anything ayu+TK so I'm super excited!

I need The Show Must Go On in full :'(
That preview keeps playing in my head.

Why am i not seeing any promo trucks or promo pictures online yet? When I was in shibuya / harajuku, all i see was perfume and this girl from avex that i cant recall. And Exile of course.

10 days to go :love

I wonder why no TA boxset picture yet, maybe Ayu wants to surprise us :D

In due time. Probably next week. Still one week of singles/album before A ONE gets its promo week.

i'm waiting for Tell All (2015 mix)!

Same. I wonder when she recorded it.

But Duty is not a special case, I checked GUILTY got 1min 30sec

I was talking more about the interview tacked on.

When is it gonna be on iTunes? Wednesday?

If it goes by how her releases have usually come out on there (aka slightly early), yeah.

I hope it gets an early iTunes release, I can't wait any longer.

still curious about anything for you. I'm trying to keep myself from getting my hopes up about it. It probably is an interlude but it would be great if it was a full length song.

Edit: scratch what I just said. I just saw those lyrics for Anything for You so yeah...haha, never mind!

I wonder why that song was kept from us!

I dont have high hopes for this song cause there was a hint that its good for concert ending so it will be propably something like Red Line or MY ALL which is boring as... well, maybe it will surprisr me. But give me "NO FUTURE" already ><

What? Where did you get that hint? I think people thought so because of the way it sounds in the lyrics.

^ ah, rightt??

Give me NO FUTURE + The Show Must Go On

GIVE ME THE WHOLE ALBUM ALREADY lol

So is it possible to have the album in 2 days!?

That gives me hope! I need the album in my life! hahaha

I'm super happy to see this album has gotten to four threads. I'm excited to hear A ONE.

Agree :)
It's nice when people are so excited about something. Especially since this happens not so often.
It would be awesome to have the album in the first day of April. Please ayu

Does anyone else think this album might sell better than colours? I mean, the single sold about the same amount physically as FTL/MGR and definitely did better digitally + some exposure from the MOWY cover and some actual promo.. Idk I have a good feeling about this album

My body is ready for the entire album. I hope there's an iTunes release, yes!

I also hope for an early release on iTunes, I can't stand not listening to the previews with everyone excited for the album hahaha

^ I admire your strength, Gustavo. Like, seriously.

You will make it!
I wonder if I can resist till the concert or if I will listen on the release date ><

I'd never wait with listening to new stuff till a concert.
Idk, but I want to recognize songs and get excited when they start being performed.
And songs can sound so much different live (especially in an arena with not so good audio capability, lol).

I just listened to the previews again and I'm suddenly really looking forward to The Show Must Go On. I know it sounds very similar to snowy kiss, but I dunno... This doesn't sound as hectic and manic. It's more optimistic :)

I can't wait >.> really want to listen to the full songs, No Future and The Show Must Go On. Hope we will get them soon

I wonder if it is still unrevealed whether "a Bell" is an interlude or an actual song?

There are no lyrics, so...my money is on an intro/instrumental track.

^I think is an interlude, judging by the credits of the track :)

I did that once and ended up loving the live versions more than the originals. Which wasn't fun cause I wanted to hear the live version without the clapping and screaming. :P

I had that experience with "Happening Here" liked the Live version much much more, so I decided that this time I wanna be surprised by the songs. (Last time I heard all songs before)

I hope it'll leak soon!

I want to listen to it during my flight to Tokyo next week :P so i'll be ready for the 1st show in Saitama ^^

If the album does get an early release on wednesday on iTunes we won't have Tell All (2015 mix), will we?

I doubt it. That'll only be on the TA version.

Yeah i thought so, uugggh, i hope the TA version gets uploaded before the release date then :o

I wouldn't hold my breath, lol :P

Another reason, wha I don't do it.
I don't want to be disappointed with the studio version.

Maybe it will end up on some random digital compilation eventually!

I am so anxious! CAN'T WAIT ANY LONGER, JESUS TAKE THE WHEEL.

Can yall take some freaking xanax

...I'm kidding, so don't come for me unless I send for you Lmao

I hope Legend A sleighs us all with the booklet and back cover tbh. Remember how colours had a meh cover but then she sleighed with the booklet? I need another reverse warholian experience like that. This album is coming out during exam season for me so if she did that it would be wonderful.

I just really wish that she doesnt cut Walk of the tour, just that

Ah super excited!! I hope it will be out at 12midnight in Japan tmr :D thats 13 hours more

I'm not getting my hopes up for that ⤴
But if it happens, then awesome!

I haven't listened to previews either but I did listen to the Gift cause I knew I had to soften that blow and bring my as back down to reality.

Thinking of living like so many of the Colorado folks do while listening for the first time. Although that didn't help AT ALL when I "kicked back" in my car and blasted Party Queen for the first time. Tragedy right there.

It's always nice to listen as Colordoian or Californian, but I haven't done it as a special thing! Maybe this time I'll try :)! (Though nothing could help Party Queen).

Stupid Florida law. Lol ��

I found this on Mixi ^^ I believe it come from an employee of Avex !
If you look at the sticker you can see that "The show must go on" will be used as CM song for the brand "samantha thavasa" and also they state that the album will have 12 songs ?? or "Movin on without you" will be included ? it's really difficult to read XD

http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/93...0280149123.jpg

Movin' on without you as unannounced hidden bonus track?

Edit: since the sticker usually states what's in it it says the 3 ballad songs Zutto, Last Minute & Walk , The collaboration with JJ Lin the Gift and the bottom one says Cover of Utada Hikaru's Movin' on without you and since I suppose this isn't a fake (it looks really legit..) it's probably on there ^^

The Disc with the cover and the box make it more gorgeous <3

Movin' on without you... that was expected
but to mention hidden track on sticker?

What a good news ! I wonder if TA ver. has Tell all AND Movin' on without you!
Thanks Fred ! :3

OMG the album covers looks so pretty in the real casing :) and 12 tracks! that's a nice surprise. so glad I ordered my copy!

^
de rien Linza =)

I found the source ! Avex Management https://twitter.com/shige1209^^
Bigger picture ... Yes 12th tracks = Movin' on without You

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CBZDHTfUkAATTxh.jpg:large

finally good advertisement!!

After the really great response of this cover I don't understand why they didn't announce it since the beginning for the promotional purpose ?

Maybe it's a last minute (haha) decision or negociation ?

I'm glad they decided to put Movin' on without you in the album, it may help with the sales since people seemed to loved her cover :)

They've been promoting the live so much I'm glad they included it!! (though its as though Utada sold her the song HAHA!)

Now that I see the album...the album leak feels more real now AHHAHA.OMG I CANT WAIT

and OMG THAT TIE-IN FOR THE SHOW MUST GO ON IS 365 DAYS!??!

i fucking knew they'd include Movin' on without you on it

have you noticed that there's no obi :no NOOOOOOOO!!

I think it's for this campaign here: http://samantha365.jp/ not sure if they're going to use the same CM song for a year but if they do that would be great :luv2

That is an open copy. They won't have the OBI on an unsealed one.

Then why is the sticker there?

Waaaaaa! So happy for Movin' on without you

Stuck on a production sample? It doesn't seem like there is shrinkwrapping on this copy. Would be odd for this to not have an OBI.

so this is her second time including a cover song in an album. the first is 卒業寫真 in A BALLADS.

i wonder how is the tracklist going now? movin' on without you as track 12?

Yeeep.

^i just noticed the number on the sticker!

Leak in 3,2,1...

I guess the Utada cover would fit the overall J-pop theme of the album. I just hope it's properly designated as a "bonus track" and not awkwardly tacked on after "Walk" as if it were supposed to be part of the actual album.

Nope!

It should be her 4th time including a cover;

Love Songs = SEVEN DAYS WAR
A SUMMER BEST = Happening Here (if you include A BEST OF album that is)
;)

Oooooh yeah give me the album now please ahhhhhhh :love

ahh... totally forgot SEVEN DAYS WAR!

That'd be great, actually! Well, the website do says: "Campaing period: 2015.3.1~2016.2.29", so who knows? :)

I just realized that i's April 1st in japan.... I become paranoid（・□・；）

It's Wednesday in Japan now. No sign of the new album on iTunes ;-; I knew there probably wouldn't be an early release because we got no announcement but still..

Never mind. I forgot I'm in daylight saving time now lol. One more hour!

photo was posted at twitter 12 hours ago. Let's hope that's too early for joke

It's still Tuesday :-p
One more hour

^ Oops. I forgot my region set the clock back an hour a few days ago lol

Yep. One more hour.

Phew! I'm READY for (cruel) april fools jokes, come on avex ! (ง •̀_•́)ง

not sure but iirc earlier even samples has had an obi

I dunno what to do with all possible info pouring out tomorrow, which might be a mixture of cruel jokes from fans and real official announcement?

4 more minutes OMG..

a Bell (from ayu's official YouTube channel): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6MXtYWDKMs

Must be a short version...

Unfortunately it wasn't uploaded to itunes. Personally I think it's a good move, but it sucks having to wait xD

the interlude sounds beautiful :)
hopefully its a bit longer

a Bell sounds quite pretty. :)

She uploaded "Walk" too... that's random, lol.

a Bell is very nice!!!!! i'm getting more excited officially lol

Yep, I think it's a short version since it ends quite... abruptly. I'm getting even more excited for A ONE! :heart
