THANKS FOR THE INFO! :)

I'm quite surprised for the collab as well as the new album's title.
I mean... "LOVE SONGS." eh? oh well, whatever. As long as the new album
will rock my 2011!!!! I wouldn't mind. XD can't wait for more info!!!

Awesome :D

and wow, a collab! this'll be interesting<3

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!!!!!!!!! <-My reaction.

Collab sounds interesting :D

Last angel is getting a PV!!!!!! I'm so freakin' excited!!!!

OOOMMMMGGG Last angel has a PV :thud :thud :thud

I actually don't like the album title.
'Love songs' sounds too simple for Ayu. But anyway, the collab single looks interesting.

'Dream ON' isn't gonna be in the new album, right?

oh, I see there will be only 3 new songs, I'm a little sad >_<

OMGOMGOMG
SO EXCITED OMG THIS COLLAB IS GOING TO BE SO DIFFERENT.. I SOO CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR THE RESULT OF THIS AND HELL YES LAST ANGEL PV.
I soo love the feeling announcements of new ayu stuff gives me.. my heart is racing so fast from excitement!

I don't like the title of her new album as it's so un-inspiring but no doubt I'm excited to get it as I like the songs from her 48th - 50th singles since I don't buy her singles xD

I will get the one with the DVD as I don't see the need to get the edition with the micro SD card + thumbdrive as I already have so many of such gadgets at hand already & 8,800 yen for it ? thanks but no thanks

Love songs? Now that sounds interesting. Can't wait! :D Thanks for the info!

wow.cool.weird that the micro sd+usb+dvd is not limited edition

my wallet Q_Q
I get a big hole in my wallet v,v

but this is exiting *-*
a new album AND a new single

Excited by the news, but also slightly surprised...

I hope I'll like the colab single, because I HATE HATE HATE everything AAA has released recently with a passion burning with the intensity of a thousand, nay, a million songs. Hope it'll be more like Ayu's music than AAA's music.

As for the album, great news! Just hope that the title isn't a premise for the theme of the entire album... Love Songs sounds an awful lot like ballad-central.

microSD? lol

is there also a photobook coming with the first press of the CD+DVD and CD only? Ifnot I'm gonna be seriously pissed..

And wth @ this collab single?!

Love songs sounds so pretty.. what an awesome Chrissy present! And omg, yay for a Last Angel clip (if that part is officially confirmed?)!

Oooh, cool! A new collaboration single with AAA. Hmm, I don't really know what to think since I don't listen to them at all, actually. I'll keep my mind open for the mean time.

As for the album, Love Songs? Oh no, is this going to be ballad-heavy? 9 new tracks, which means probably 3 interludes, leaving us with six new songs. I REEAALLYY hope there's ONLY one new ballad. =___= But I kind of doubt it, so... huh.

The more singles the better; so happy for the 51st single. Hopefully this WILL be #1 and it WILL be counted as such!! So she can get more #1-records... as for the album... NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! LOVE SONGS?!?!?!?!?! That probably means all the songs are ballads and super lame!!!!! :( NO ROCK?!?!?! :'(!!! AAA..

i saw a [★数量限定] at the decription of the micro sd+usb+dvd+photobook] version.

so i am going to order this the second it goes up to sale. the nightmare of the NL usb still scares me, i was really lucky to be able to grab the first press


only the USB/mircoSD version has a photobook
