Huge thanks to SURREAL_RAINBOW for helping me with the thread!!


Earth_maiden 9th August 2011 03:45 PM

I've never made a thread before so I hope it looks okay!! :thud

NintendoHTF1242 9th August 2011 05:22 PM

There's technically this thread already. Maybe you can ask a mod to combine these together?

koumori 9th August 2011 05:44 PM

Oh she's pretty~ I might check out her latest album.

Yes, we know, a few people in there asked if that thread could be closed and a new one created, so I took the initiative and made one with a lot more info in the first post. :yes

NintendoHTF1242 9th August 2011 05:57 PM

Oh alright! I didn't notice that. Sorry xD

I've been kind of interested in her. But the tagging for her debut album is such a mess.

Earth_maiden 9th August 2011 06:07 PM

No worries! I've been kind of obsessed with AILI since I first heard her FUTURE album, which is why I wanted to make the thread. :D

And you're right, the tagging is atrocious. I've been contemplating ripping my own CD copy, if only I knew how to do a decent job of it. :thud

Which reminds me, I need to add in her rental only single of "Memoirs Again". Should I upload it here? The mega mix is definitely worth a listen. :yes

EDIT: Turns out I don't need to, found a thread with the upload here:

SURREAL__RAINBOW 13th August 2011 12:48 PM

I can't wait for the new album!!!

She looks stunning in the covers!

I wonder how the booklet will look like... Did Future have many pictures inside? :O


AILI :love

sesshy 19th August 2011 12:03 AM

I listened to her mini-album. It was okay. I really like the song 'Run Away.' For some reason, I like when she says "run away". lol

emi♡ 19th August 2011 12:08 AM

ohhh sooooo muuucccchhhh loooooooooooovvvvvveeeeeeeee :heart :heart :heart

I just love all of my singer songwriters, and AILI is just, greatness~

Everyone follow her on twitter!

omg I still have to listen to Vivid :thud so many things to do...

Queen Bee 19th August 2011 12:43 AM

^VIVID is SO good! I think Run away has to be the best track on there in my opinion! All the songs are great though!

SURREAL__RAINBOW 19th August 2011 05:12 PM

I'm waiting for my copy :P

Hopefully it arrives by next week :(

Earth_maiden 23rd August 2011 01:50 PM

I'm holding out until I get my physical copy, but I feel like I might crack soon! I've heard such good things about the album too, so I'm even more excited!:luv2

PoetGirl 23rd August 2011 09:34 PM

I heard VIVID today and its awsome. Love at first listen I must say.

Earth_maiden 5th September 2011 05:10 PM

I FINALLY received my copy of VIVID a few days ago. Australia Post were holding it at my local PO, but never sent me a notification, so I had no idea it was sitting there for 9 days. :shakehead

I tried to scan the pics in the booklet, but the ONLY one that turned out semi decent was this one:




Can anyone clean up the lines? I have no idea how to do it myself. :innocent And please don't upload it anywhere without permission. Thank you. ^_^

AMAZING!!!

Only one pic? More scans would be great.

Queen Bee 7th September 2011 12:40 AM

Anyone know where I can find translations of songs from FUTURE and VIVID?

I scanned most of the pages, but they just turned out really awful. :thud

I'm so happy, nearly every time I tweet AILI she replies to me. Our little joke about men has to be my favourite though... :innocent
