What are some phrases/lyrics that Ayu has said that has helped you got by?
 

Basically the title..Im really curious how much AYU has been an inspiration and motivation for us

Yayayaya
Gagagaga
Dadadada
Wowowowo
-Bold & Delicious

A true poet.

All jokes aside, A Song for XX and Memorial address helped me a lot in a weird way. I can’t explain it but having an artist truly understand loneliness helped me not feel alone.

And sadly this isn't even her creation :'(

Lyrics of walking proud, as a whole.

Basically the lyrics in I am... album, I can relate to every song and it inspires me a lot.

Also this one:

"If I had to comment, I’d say that there are usually two ways people wish to be loved. To suppress reality and continue living in a dream, or to be ourselves and have our differences acknowledged. I choose the latter. I don’t want to be thoroughly loved. I want to truly be myself, without needing to hide my failures."

It's from Numero TOKYO 2013 October: Ayumi Hamasaki Feature Article. It resonates within me even until now.

Surely, light and shadow
Are the same thing
Just close your eyes for a bit, look
You can naturally see...
