Sunrise ~LOVE is ALL~ to be theme song for the drama "Dandy Daddy?"
 

So, finally.. Ayu's got herself a drama tie-up with the summer TV Asahi drama, "Dandy Daddy?".

Ayu's comment from the Dandy Daddy? site translated from Chinese by waterballoon:
Composer/arranger information from the site:
OMG NEW COMPOSER


I wonder if this will help the single much.

Looks like a fun drama.

They mention her last drama tie-up, forgiveness in 2003. Wow, it's been 6 years..

[NOTE: THE DRAMA STARTS ON JULY 9TH MEANING THAT WE WILL GET A PREVIEW BY THEN]

A preview of the chorus[?] was played during a morning news show[s] and the song apparently has a very band-like sound, and is likened to EnergizE or independent.

もっと大きな声で もっと大きな愛を
君に届くよにいつも胸に響かせたい
もっと大きな声で もっと大きな愛を叫ぶから

Rough general translation/romaji of the lyrics from an amazing friend:
The love is being carried to the other person through their voice.
And it resounds in their heart.
And that growing love will call out through that voice.

motto ooki na koe de motto ooki na ai wo
kimi ni todoku yo ni itsumo mune ni hibikasetai
motto ooki na koe de motto ooki na ai wo yobu kara

-lyricized translation-
Through this growing voice, this growing love
Will reach you and always resound in your heart
I'll call out this growing love through my growing voice

Translation from TakaSama:
"With a louder voice, a greater love
Will reach you
I always want it to ring in my heart
because a louder voice will bring forth greater love"

coool!

Thanks for the info, I hope the song is good. :)

^^ wow..sparkling dorama..i think its a cute n comedy dorama...

Reminds the My Boss, My Hero type of drama and I loved it.
Already sounds interesting. ^^

w00t. A preview quicker than I imagined. Schwing!

niiiiiice ^^

thanks for the info

not interested in the drama...and I don't think the drama will help the sales. I was hoping the song would be for a different drama.

Awesome!! I'll definitely try to catch the first episode!
I'm glad she finally got a drama-tie in!!

Anything imo is fine. We should take what we can get. It's not like Ayu can do a JE one since they generally do their own themes.

She had like a chef drama, and a few romance ones.. this might be her big break! Haha.

That's really surprising. I mean, when was the last time she did a tie-up to a drama? (2003, of course, as noted...) Hopefully the drama can do well on both itself and the upcoming sales of the single, though the release dates are kind of separated by a month...

And by the way, who are the actors/actresses in this show? (Must be Romanized, please...)

Can't wait for the preview!

There already is a preview floating around from the morning news in Japan.

It is only a matter of time before it pops up.

It sounds like it's My Boss, My Hero style oriented drama (I mean comedical drama probably) and sorafune/do!do!do! did really well (over 420,000) though nagase himself was featured in that drama too.

aw wonderful news~
it's been a long time since she have a drama tie-up!

But I'm disappointed with the lyrics.

i wish she would sing for one of the upcoming dramas that i'll be watching, lol. :P but it's good to see ayu having a drama tie-in for once.

awesome to hear new ayu but i agree...the lyrics are quite disappointing

wow that's pretty cool news ^^

can't wait to hear the preview, I'm so excited!

I hope the dorama will be good too though ;)

Wow, thanks for news and lyrics

I think it's great :yes
maybe it will also help the sales, who knows~

hopefully we'll have a preview soon ^^

A tie-in like this could actually make a difference, even a small one, unlike DBE I am actually glad they're finally trying "alternative" ways of promoting Ayu's music or at least a way they haven't tried in years.

Any promotion helps towards sales
Thanks for sharing!

There's actually another my boss, my hero type drama that's coming soon too...with the guy from smap and meisa kuroki...was hoping it would be that drama or something...but this is still ok...even though I have no interest in the drama but knowing ayu will have a drama tie-in makes me happy...and thanks to the tie-in, we'll have a preview soon!

This is great, it probably WILL help sales and we'll get to hear the song earlier! :D

just like usual,,
d complete lyric not come up yet..
but there're people who have complained bout that..

lol..

Haven't heard about these actors/actresses...are any of them well-known, at least?

OUUUU Ishiguro Hideo. i know that guy from "Ichi Pondo no Fukuin". and he had a cameo in "MR.BRAIN" and was in "Gokusen 3". :)

i think it's great Ayu has a j-drama tie-in, even if it's not one of the most anticipated ones (Takizawa Hideaki, TOKIO, & B'z got "Orthros no Inu", "Karei Naru Spy", & "BUZZER BEAT" tie-ins already). but j-drama tie-ins are good exposure, nevertheless.

very "growing".. LOL
i didnt know forgiveness was a drama tie-in

That's great! I had a slight feeling (or more like hope) that it was a drama tie-in. I've always wanted to watch a drama with Ayu's song in it. XD

that's great! lol i'll probably watch this. i can't wait for that preview. the lyrics sound real nice.

I don't know if "growing" is a word I'd use for these lyrics... it's more like:

"With a louder voice, a greater love
Will reach you
I always want it to ring in my heart
because a louder voice will bring forth greater love"

I quite like the potential of these lyrics :yes

preview soon
that means Ayu may sing this in her upcoming lives too???

cool :D
at least now i know what upcoming dorama to add on my watch list xDD

Uhm..

I hope it increases her single sales.
This and a-nation will be a great promotion for the new single, for sure. ^^
I can't wait to listen to the preview, I like the translated lyrics!
Now I'm hoping it's a good song... EnergizE and independent are not my favourite songs but well... let's wait and see xD

Great!

Now I have to follow this drama xDD I hope it gets subbed *__* Ayu should do a cameo too! Heehee

base on cast, this dorama can be a flop, i will watch the dorama just because ayu sing the theme song...hahaha
but i hope it will have a high rating viewership
so..it can help ayu sales...

This is REALLY exciting!
She done 2 drama tie-ins to her songs before (Voyage and forgiveness).

EnergizE and independent like song, THAT WOULD BE COOL!!!

Noooo~~~ let's be positive~~~~~

hope it's actually gonna be a popular drama, though the lyrics feel...hmm..

cant wait for the preview :D

cool!! I hope this will help to so much better sales!
thanks ^^

typical lyrics of ayu.. sounds like a not bad song at all!

sounds really great! can't wait!

Wow, great news to come too :). I hope this new drama tie-in does wonders for her.

Actually, many of them have been in popular doramas (the "Gokusen" series and movie, Koshonin, and Papa to Musume no Nanokakan, to name some), and the lead character has actually won a famous dorama award.

This is Ayu's 1st dorama tie-in since 2003 (with "forgiveness"), so this will be interesting to see how well this does, especially since doramas are HUGE in Japan.

Can't wait to hear the preview! =D

Yaiaiit.. finally a song for a dorama.. this is what I wish
thx FYI TH

thanks for the info ^^

its starts next week..yuhoo!!!then it's a must watch drama for me XD

wow great news :D
thanks~~

Seems like the new composer is a newcomer to the composing scene! All I can find on them are like, indie-things..

so now that person composing major artist....
nice move

Yay!! must-watch list then :yes

that's great!

I hope Ayu will promote new songs.

looking back at every drama Ive watched....none of them were from tv asahi... haha

wow that's good!! finally a drama tie-in but the drama loks a bit stupid...

Wo.Ot A tie in :D It has been a while, hasn't it ^_^

Oooh Can't wait for a preview !

Exciting! Drama tie-in... whoa first time since 6 years!

this is cool! i need to listen to preview ASAP!

new blood composing! yey.

CMJK doing arrangement...hopefully its nice.

Lyrics are to be expected.

The preview was played during today's news?
Or it will be played on tomorrow's new or the other days?
I cant wait!

Sunrise ~LOVE is ALL~ should be ayu's new song?

花西村 as a new composer? That's good! I hope it shows in the song that it's different from other songs

Lyrics sounds very nice! <3
~thnx

want to hear the preview, and yay for new composer...

i love that she have another tie-in ! maybe it'll help her sales but if it doesn't , i'll still be ok ! i love her music .

Hmm is that Yabu? i think it's a good way of promotion too!

Firstly i have to scream OMG for the drama tie-in. I always felt that Drama's were very good promo methods...and FINALLY AYU FINALLY!!!!

And its GREAT to have a new composer!! i trust the way Ayu picks songs..and with CMJK, no worries...

cant wait to hear the preview!!!!!!!

Oh no, now I need to go around a month without listening to a song that is used for a drama? o.o

But okay, it's nice with promotion :roflmao

wow~
another tie-in!
thanks for the translation!

If this drama is as popular as the one about F4, hope the single can sell as well as Flavour of Life.

Definitely.. not.. haha.

TV Asahi never seems to have super popular dramas. Only ones I saw that seemed noteworthy were Mop Girl and Princess Princess.

I'm sure it's Yabu xD...


So, a preview will be in our hands very soon, but however, I may wait for an entire song to come, if I'm not getting too impatient :rolleyes

Thanks the drama must start on July so we will have extract from Sunrise quickly !

Yay finally another Drama tie-in! I've been waiting for this!!

The song sounds cool from the lyric, and a new composer! :D
I hope the drama will be good :yes

YAY!! This would help her sales so much!!

OMG! new song! i hope a new single will come soon!

^ ...this song is going to be on the new single "Sunrise / Sunset ~LOVE is ALL~", which comes out in August...

anyone has the video of the morning news? i want to listen to the preview

cool ^^

thanks!! :D

does anyone know WHICH morning news show it was on, at least???? lol...

OMG. I hope it is! Anything but fairyland/BLUE BIRD/glitter-like summer song.

I'm glad Ayu got herself a tie-in for a drama, it's so rare!

:laugh

I like EnergizE and I LOVE independent.
I hope it's more similar to independent.

It's great that Ayu have a tie-in this time. Maybe it isn't that great boost for her sales, but it's fresh news.
Don't feel the posted lyrics, but I wait for the whole.

great! thanks for the info

aww~ cant wait for the song

lol i swear her lyrics are almost always the same, she just phrases them differently.

glad it's a new composer though, and that it sounds like energize :yes

I'd rather she write about something she believes in a million times than have her write something shallow and ~not true to herself~. Sorry to say, but despite her lyrical repetition at times, she's still better than most singer-lyricists out there..

i never said it was a bad thing. :shrug just easily repetitive, i've noticed.

You do know that usualy when someone says that, they're generally implying that they don't like it...

exactly. i'm never disappointed in her lyrics. others just don't compare.

well i am not just "someone" so they can't really speak for me. :)

i love lyrics that are themed around "love" and that extract from the lyrics sounds like it could fit into any of her other love songs.. but that doesn't stop me from liking it.

Yep, so true. Completely agree.

similar to EnergizE and independent? urgh..

nice promo with the drama tie-in though

the lyrics do seem repetitive and whilst I LOVE her lyrics (main reason why I'm a fan of her) I wish they were a bit more original & not typical Ayu lovelove-ness just phrased differently
