LOL it's true :D

anyway ASFXX is a pretty sad song and I like it, even if her voice wasn't so perfect.

AyuGAME 23rd April 2009 03:12 PM

a song for xx?!
cry?!
weird...

tenshi no hane 23rd April 2009 03:32 PM

thanks for the info

A Song for XX is one of her saddest song imo, I mean "Being born alone, living alone, I thought that kind of live was normal" are damn sad lyrics. It can make me feel like crying when I'm feeling lonely.

A Song for XX sure makes me sad. :(

Lee^ChaN 23rd April 2009 03:50 PM

aw.. i love a song for xx
#3 & #5 also :love

ayumisrael 23rd April 2009 04:03 PM

sangatsu kokonoka and ayu's A Song for xx are two songs I love very much!!
They really can make you cry.
Congrats to ayu and remioromen for being there ^^.

waterballoon 23rd April 2009 04:04 PM

A Song For xx makes me emo... but not in the crying kind... more like in the angry kind of emo lol. But good to see her SOMEWHERE there~

maikaru 23rd April 2009 04:15 PM

if we talk about her singing a song for xx before it being the karate theme at the one concert, then it is such a sad song.. it was always screaming hopelessness..
but now, she turned into a song full of rage and anger...

Ayumi27 23rd April 2009 04:16 PM

Lol... I would have chosen Memorial address from AT03-04 instead... but anyway, still the queen of Oricon polls haha

It's how I like it xD I mean, this rockish kind of the song. Especially that the arrangement haven't changed much, but her voice does it all.. Loooveee

firstly i can't stand coz there're many ayu's songs even sadder than ASFXX! and she didn't even cried when she sung it! (and now ASFXX seems to be a rock song for me)

thanks tenshi no hane reminding her lyrics, now i got it

AyUta 23rd April 2009 04:39 PM

Dearest should be up there :headache Now that song is sad :weep Congrats to Ayu though.

Can anyone translate the rest?

ah it's the same with me ^_^

@Maikaru - Ayu is singing A Song for XX for the fans now, I am pretty sure she doesn't feel that way anymore, even though she sings it quite emotionally.

Ahi_max91 23rd April 2009 05:29 PM

sugoii ne ^^!~~

Ayu_Ready 23rd April 2009 06:27 PM

It's very personel a song who makes you cry, maybe you remember somthing of your life or something like that so I'm not surprised that a lof of ballads very sad aren't in the top !

Dearest, teddy bear,...

TITANIC 23rd April 2009 06:42 PM

I never think ASFXX could make me cry. I think only HEAVEN and who...

zyoeru 23rd April 2009 06:43 PM

Ahh, A Song for xx makes me feel sad whenever I'm on a downer.
But I would've personally voted for untitled ~for her~ or Memorial address, they make me feel hopeless. XD

f1rz3n_0028 23rd April 2009 06:47 PM

thx for the info, but ASFXX? cry? strange...
doesn't sound like it has a sad feeling, Days would probably have been a better choice:P

PoetGirl 23rd April 2009 06:58 PM

there are many ayu's songs that makes me cry, but who would make a list of all of them.. a song for xx is really sad and its easy to feel it..
i love that song so much

jbrat2219 23rd April 2009 07:10 PM

Hmm, this song didn't come to mind, but it is very touching.

pchan1986 23rd April 2009 07:19 PM

ASFXX huh...hmm seem more rockish to me, maybe they mean lyrically. a tearful song for me would be dearest

SolarAngel 23rd April 2009 07:23 PM

That big of an impact huh? It's a cool song but Heaven makes me want to cry more.

duque 23rd April 2009 08:06 PM

a song for xx is a strong song...but ...well..it doesnt make me want to cry :S
thanks for the info

rakeru 23rd April 2009 09:15 PM

ASFXX definitely deserves that.

BoBo 23rd April 2009 09:16 PM

that should be nice...? :D

rookies 23rd April 2009 10:10 PM

Thx for the news.

I love A Song For XX, but it doesn't make me cry though.

neuteka 23rd April 2009 10:44 PM

every time I read the translation ( I can't really understand Japanese ) to ASFXX, I cry...

SunshineSlayer 23rd April 2009 10:58 PM

A song for xx always does well in this type of poll. Shows that song has stood the test of time.

ren0210989 23rd April 2009 11:44 PM

talk about timing :roflmao
i've been listening to A song for xx for the laste few days 24/7 xD

it's a sad and intense song. i love it :yes

ayuayu798 24th April 2009 12:01 AM

It's such a sad song!!!

majrakun 24th April 2009 12:08 AM

A song for xx is like, such an old song in Ayu's discography, yet still manages in new polls. I guess it's the fact that she's been singing alot lately helps.

AyuMyu 24th April 2009 12:26 AM

thank you (^^)

to me ASFX is not sad song but make me cry...
maybe because I feel weakness (^^)"

I love the (la la la) & with the remix (Ferry Corsten Chilled mix) I couldn't stop crying...

Mitkki 24th April 2009 12:36 AM

Lol...to the people who don't see A Song for xx as sad..do you even know what it's about?

Chibi_Venus 24th April 2009 12:46 AM

Aww. :heart :)

a_kingdom21 24th April 2009 12:52 AM

May b d composition n d arrangment of d song arnt that tragic..
but after readin d lyric it's totally sad song ever..

AyuMyu 24th April 2009 01:21 AM

I think it's feeling between afeard sad and angry

I'm listen to it now ( T-T )

seriously it's one of her saddest songs.

Emperatriz Ayumi 24th April 2009 02:33 AM

Greats news!!!

I think Together When... should be on the list...

Gus-tave 24th April 2009 04:20 AM

ASFXX should be number one.

chloeM 24th April 2009 04:45 AM

i cry every time while singing Memorial address...

why it's not on the list?

Yumsushi 24th April 2009 06:36 AM

The lyrics for ASFXX are sad but the arrangement is more angry than anything and that takes away from the sadness of the lyrics, for me anyhow. Now Heaven or Carols are songs that ALWAYS turn on the waterworks.

Yeah, I much prefer her early performances of the song, especially Dome TOur 2001. Now, the song is way too choreographed.

I'm not sure why all the Dearest mentions. That is actually one of the happier songs that she has ever written. Bitter-sweet kind of happy, but happy none the less.

AyuFreax 24th April 2009 08:14 AM

i think A song for xx is the saddest song...

koumori 24th April 2009 08:17 AM

When I listen to the live version, A Song For XX makes me cry a lot.

I'd agree with this~ ^o^

gothicayu 24th April 2009 09:33 AM

i totally love a song for xx i think number 8 is not bad at all for ayu

MissElin_ 24th April 2009 09:40 AM

Aaaaw ASfXX is perfect! (Along with Memorial Address and HEAVEN) :heart

Handjan 24th April 2009 12:03 PM

ASFXX is so sad. I think also there should be Dearest, Teddy Bear, Seasons, HEAVEN - they are mostly old songs so everybody remembers them.

YotaLM21 24th April 2009 03:21 PM

what about HEAVEN? or HANABI?...

ASFXX... japanese people have always weird tastes xD ASFXX makes me feel so strong :p

Yoake 24th April 2009 05:47 PM

thanks for info^^

sailorseraphim 24th April 2009 07:04 PM

ummm i think HEAVEN or Dearest maybe, coz those actually made me cry..... or mebe Free & Easy??

sailorseraphim 24th April 2009 07:12 PM

OMG and how did i forget HANABI & HANABI ~Episode II~ ?!?!?!?!?!

pommy48 24th April 2009 11:06 PM

lol ASFXX made me cry the first time i heard it, but now the song just makes me stronger

Key ~eternal tie~ 24th April 2009 11:16 PM

Lyrics wise: A Song for X X, teddy bear and Memorial address
Actual songs: fated, Days... and Curtain call.

Ayumiko 24th April 2009 11:23 PM

I only feel like crying when I watch ayu perform A song for XX live...very emotional. Memorial address from AT 03-04 was sad too.

ストロボ・EdGE 25th April 2009 12:55 AM

I find it so weird, out of all songs ASFXX?

JackieRos 25th April 2009 01:28 AM

eheh ASFX makes wan to dance! nono JK

I know they should have put Days I can't even listen or see the full song without crying

mimika 25th April 2009 01:37 AM

A Song For XX is definitely one of the songs that always makes me cry!!

so powerful...so emotionally...sooo touches ones heart..for me at least

at specially the last few lines....

Xocoley25oX 25th April 2009 05:37 AM

The Lyrics Are Very Sad, I Can See Why It's On Here.



Can Someone Tell Me What Is Number One Please Lol?

mimika 25th April 2009 06:02 AM

^number one is 'namida' by ketsumeishi

taskinillusion 25th April 2009 06:42 AM

Awwww! It is an emotional song.

Okay the crying clown guy is freaking me out...

theSKYBLUETIES 25th April 2009 06:54 AM

awww...a song for xx. i feel so nostalgic when i hear that song. :]

emi♡ 25th April 2009 06:59 AM

a song for xx makes me cry when they play it during the NTV 04 interview...

and lol at the people who think ayu should be first in every poll ever created by oricon.

anyway, I think they chose a good song.

rusuke 25th April 2009 08:28 AM

I think they chose ASFXX because of the lyrics. When you just listened to the music you can't just cry because of the rock feel of the chorus. But I think it really does make me cry.

asmAyumi1992 25th April 2009 08:43 AM

Thanks for the info. I love ASFXX very much!

otsukachieko 25th April 2009 09:22 AM

woow~
A song for XX
yes,,it indeed makes me cry =(

My Rainbow 25th April 2009 11:11 AM

Theres many of them!

Who...
HANABI
Dolls
Over
Replace
teddy bear
...

Ayu_no_tenshi 25th April 2009 11:20 AM

it's not weird at all...if you can understand the lyrics it's a very moving song. it's very emotional and strong. it's one of ayu's defining songs as she tries to find her place in the world and realize who she is as a person. surely, people relate to that. i've heard lots of people (who aren't really ayu fans) say that it's the song they remember the most of ayu and how when she first came out, hearing the song it makes you think "wow...she must have had a hard childhood. i wonder what happened to her but she still seems so strong."

keikeiaznqueen 25th April 2009 11:36 AM

Hmmm, seriously, A Song for XX's original version is not rock at all.

The original concept of the song does have this very lonely emotion to it that makes it very sad and hollow. Combined with Ayu's lyrics and the way she sang when she asked all those questions in the verse, this song is really very sad.

But ever since the release of the song back in 1999, it has changed so much. In A BEST it has kept some of its original qualities and the only thing that's changed is Ayu's voice that sounds far more desperate. (Although in a way I suppose you can also say it sounds more assertive. But that wasn't really what Ayu was aiming for I think.)

In A BALLADS the song made a 180 and became a rock number with Ayu sounding quite angry when she sings. XD I don't think this is the A Song for XX that makes people cry, and got a #8 in this poll.

PEARL 25th April 2009 12:04 PM

it really made me cry. A song for XX
by watching her special interview 2004 movie.

yoshisbuddy 25th April 2009 12:42 PM

I think Untitled ~for Her~ is one of her saddest songs

freedreamer 25th April 2009 01:49 PM

i think A Song For XX is an emotional song...well it was the lyrics of it that won the hearts of many fans..so i guess thats why...the song SPOKE to them

JackieRos 25th April 2009 03:30 PM

the lyrics I agree are emotional but the song is a good sog especially in the A BALLADS

I love Days and also the one performance that makes me cry all the time when I watch it is Memorial address AT 03-04 A

Naw, I cried my eyes out when I first heard Together When...

I agree with the list, however. A Song for XX is an incredibly sad song. I cried when I first heard it, and I cried even more when I understood the lyrics. XD

waterballoon 25th April 2009 06:21 PM

I finally understood why anyone would cry to A Song For xx.

That feeling of getting rejected by everyone...

ALfromHELLSING 25th April 2009 09:48 PM

Songs that makes me cry are (from Ayu): Together When..., CAROLS, Secret & HEAVEN.
I think I just haven't listened to A Song for ×× enough yet. ;)

vampireknightzero 26th April 2009 04:21 AM

it totally deserves the standing

BluishDays 26th April 2009 07:07 AM

A song for XX hmmmmm I always get teary with fated, Together when. . . and Hanabi ; ;

maybe the way ayu sang ASFXX was a rock style
but when you had a hard time and you sang ASFXX, you would cry
at least, it happenned to me :yes

SunshineSlayer has a point though; Dearest isn't all out depressing. The last stanza... it's something like 'We have taken the roundabout way but we have finally arrived at this place"... it's very representative of how people start meeting each other and all... being so awkward and weird initially, and then when we all become friends, things just go good. That's like how Dearest is, for me, at least.

ayu-fan 26th April 2009 01:01 PM

it's an emotional song for me, especially the lyrics. like waterballoon has said, this song is about feeling of being rejected by everyone around you. i think it's something that always happen to our society.

i always love the original A Song for XX, because ayu's raw vocal made the song even sadder somehow :(

I agree that Dearest is far from being her saddest song, but is not a happy one either

A song for xx, powder snow, kanariya, endless sorrow, memorial address, heaven, guilty... all these songs make dearest sounds like glitter :P

Even so, dearest makes me feel the same sadness of untitled ~for her~.... something like... good memories in a bad situation thing, so... yeah, it has a very bittersweet feeling

waterballoon 26th April 2009 05:10 PM

Oh yeah bittersweet songs are tasty... Days is a song like that too. <3

yoshino 27th April 2009 02:58 AM

oh.. at least one Ayu song is in the chart. but HEAVEN makes me teared more easily.

kendelle 27th April 2009 07:51 AM

^ HEAVEN makes me sad too. I also can't go past Days for tugging the emotional heartstrings ;__;

Diana 27th April 2009 11:40 AM

It's a nice song, it makes me cry too... But HAVEN and untitled ~for her~ deserve is more.

Well, it had to go on one of them, and all of the ballads are on the Black album. The lyrics are about spending your life together with someone - it has a tinge of sadness in it, but she has definitely written sadder songs.

Chandrachan 28th April 2009 04:23 PM

a song for xx is emotional

Well there's Moments and Voyage in A BEST 2 WHITE... but lol whatever, those are the slightly happier ballads anyways.

Anyway, I really respect Ayu's ability to include slight injections of happiness in sad songs, and slight injections of regrets in upbeat/happy songs.
