If ayu were to release a self-cover album...
 

What would your track list be? :mischief

RULES:

1- Twelve track maximum.
2- No songs that have already been re-recorded:

A song for XX
Who...
Depend on you
YOU
TO BE
LOVE ~Destiny~
Trust
End roll
Dearest
Endless sorrow

3- Track list can't be flooded with songs that were released post 2010, because it wouldn't be realistic. Maybe a few if you want. :yes And...GO!

01 SURREAL (more rocky)
02 monochrome (same feel, just updated vocals)
03 Boys & Girls (arrangement could use a modern touch)
04 Duty (a'la cirque de minuit, YES)
05 I am...
06 RAINBOW
07 HANABI
08 immature (2015 EDM Rebirth Mix)
09 Memorial address
10 Fly high
11 evolution
12 M

1. Evolution
2. Surreal
3. M
4. Seasons
5. Boys & Girls
6. My All
7. Blue Bird
8. Jewel
9. Heaven
10. Voyage
11. Dearest
12. Hanabi

The most likely tracklist

I NEVER REALIZED HOW MUCH I WANTED THIS TILL NOW OMG

1.) POWDER SNOW (I wouldn't really change up the arrangement but I definitely want her to re-sing it)
2.) Terminal (I know this JUST came out, but I want Ayu to re-sing it so she doesn't sound so shrilly. The yelling parts are so overbearing. "Kimi ni..." parts are gorgeous though she can leave that)
3.) End of the World (with the way Ayu rocks out and sings now, she can totally do this song some more justice)
4.) Key ~eternal tie ver.~ (I guess call it ~self-cover ver.~ or something lol)
5.) evolution (ehh I'm iffy on this one but I feel like we deserve it)

That's all for me now.

1. Hana
2. kanariya ~Acoustic Version~
3. girlish
4. SIGNAL
5. Real Me
6. HANABI~episode II~ -Acoustic Version-
7. SEASONS

9. poker face
10. appears
11. immature
12. winding road

poker face (similar mix to AT13)
Trauma (just updated a bit)
SURREAL (with the live mix)
Duty (Cirque de Minuit style)
M (PoM style)
evolution (again just an updated version)
HANABI (with just piano like some lives)
INSPIRE (just because I love it so much lol)
Bold & Delicious (with the new live mix)
BLUE BIRD (either just updated or with the bossa nova mix from PoM)
MY ALL (because it just would be)
Mirrorcle World (updated)

01. Mirrorcle World
02. Because of you
03. M
04. Startin'
05. evolution
06. criminal
07. Blue Bird
08. July 1st
09. poker face

11. RAINBOW
12. Bold and Delicious

01. For my dear
02. Evolution

06. Scar
07. Still Alone
08. Hana
09. Signal
10. Dolls
11. Fairyland
12. Rainbow

1. Powder Snow. (I'd love a soft orchestrated version. Something like just a violin and piano.)
2. Too Late. (I think an updated EDM would be so cool.)
3. Appears. (Honestly. I'd love a tango-inspired of this song.)
4. Duty. (Couple of other people have already said it but dayum this song needs to be redone and sold!!! xD)
5. Still Alone. (Because I'm biased and would honestly buy an entire album of nothing but Still Alone, even if it was just the same damn song, same damn arrangement/vocals every track.)
6. Heartplace (I don't need a new arrangement but I'd love a new vocal/backup vocals.)
7. Liar. (I love this song but an updated version would be a.m.a.z.i.n.g.)
8. Criminal (^Same reason as liar.)
9. Jewel. (I've heard this song so much I hate it, but I think a new version of it would make me fall in love again.)
10. HANABI. (Same reason as Still Alone.)
11. Sparkle. (This song is perfection but I'd love to see what else could be done with it, with some of the producers she's been working with now this song could kill me, bring me back to life, kill me again and I'd be so happy.)
12. Daybreak. (I feel that song could either be redone in piano/orchestra or in a more uppy rock track and it'd be great either way.)

haha my tracklist goes all over the place, but I'd be happy with any self-cover song. I always love seeing artist take something they've done before and make it new.

01. poker face
02. Present
03. immature
04. WHATEVER (Version J)
05. AUDIENCE
06. Key ~eternal tie ver.~
07. End of the World
08. I am...
09. Heartplace
10. ourselves
11. About You
12. As if...
13. SIGNAL
14. monochrome
15. Bold & Delicious

1. poker face (that fabulous shibuya-kei-ish A BEST LIVE version)
2. POWDER SNOW (something with the buildup of the original but more sophisticated & modern sounding... something in between M and Love songs with a touch of Tell All)
3. monochrome (Power of Music version cuz it kicks me right in the feels)
4. appears (a PROPER ballad redo of it, not that half-assed thing HAL did for A BALLADS)
5. immature (CDM version - just cuz it's so fantastically beefed up, it's a GREAT update to the original and I'd love a CD version!!)
6. Duty (oddly enough I think it's the best executed song in her entire discography already, but the CDM live version just wows the crap outta me, I wanna hear a CD version of it!!)
7. M (Power of Music version)
8. evolution (an AT07-esque slow-start version)
9. still alone (I don't feel like the producers understood the "disillusioned princess becomes a normal girl" feeling that Ayu seems to have wanted for this track, and the "onaji michi" part is so shrill it detracts from how amazing the song could have been... would love to hear a redo)
10. A Song is born (Classical version with vocals. Obviously. Cuz it's gorgeous, and I don't want live versions to be all I have of this!)
11. STEP you (slowed-down CM version, just cuz I'm so curious how it woulda turned out in full! More marching steps than dancing steps, the concept is an interesting one)
12. BLUE BIRD (Ballad version... would be an excellent closer, and I thought the live piano version was lovely.)

1. Microphone
2. INSPIRE
3. End of the world
4. Heartplace
5. (miss)understood
6. is this LOVE?
7. Mirrorcle world

In no particular order:

1. Duty - maybe with a new arrangement, just not that atrocious Cirque du Minuit version

4. poker face
5. Inspire
6. Walking Proud
7. RAINBOW
8. WHATEVER
9. Bold & Delicious (woohoo!)
10. Present (that acapella version she did in the Next Level tour was nice)
