Ayu: Anything Goes [XXVII]
 

Starting a new one!

Seems Pei is back in discussion but the photo is one I've seen on Twitter. With the post they made last year after a hike or w/e together but Ayu was slightly obscured in it, it does seem likely Pei is the dad.

It really makes sense being Pei since Ayu really stuck up for him in the Troupe with the smoking "scandal". Maybe one day we can hear about how they got together as I assume it was after he auditioned. If it was before I wonder how he got on her radar?

Ayu knows what she wants and when she wants it, so I'm glad she appears to be living without regrets.

I hope we don't find out about the father and other details, because her private life has always been a mess and nothing positive came out of it, only damage to her image.

Yeah I’m cool with never knowing who the dad is. I do not want to see another s-storm

It'll become clear anyway if it is him whenever they hang out or something and tabloids or accounts pop up.

I think the storm already happened when she was very close to Pei in the short time after he was recruited.

This whole situation along with a few others makes a fan a bit sad since rather than talk about her music it's all stuff about her personal life in recent years.

Ayu never acknowledged the situation when the photos came up last year and well...people moved on for the most part I guess

I thought that was great. I think fans are going to do and say what they want - same for the public. Her taking the time to share her thoughts or provide insight never really matters imo - it just fuels the drama. Like there are people who are going to be rude, upset, and not show empathy to her regardless, so what's the point??

I can see why she thought about keeping her child a secret forever. I'd totally understand. And although she didn't have to, just seeing some the comments that came up after her child announcement, it was probably for the best she didn't say anything while pregnant.

I too hope we don't find out the father. Or anything else tbh. It's still her choice to share the details of her life and speak her truth, and I'd love to listen. But at the end of the day, I just hope for her happiness :)

Wouldn't mind some expression through music though...

I found out today that Ayaka Sasaki from Momoiro Clover Z covered Ayu's Honey and A song for xx during her arena concert in 2016. I think most, if not all, songs she performed were covers.

I had a dream last night that Ayu released a new full album on Spotify as a surprise.
We also had one or two new DVDs, supposedly from TROUBLE tour except that she was singing new songs lol

It wasn't very satisfying though because in my dream I never had the time to listen to the album and it seemed that people didn't care about this release so it was a real bummer

The trouble era is not over, so new music is unlikely.
Maybe her child will inspire her though.

^ This is how I'd love things to go and I think that these are pretty realistic/reasonable expectations :

- Ayu finishes TROUBLE tour in August 2020, a couple of months later she releases a big 3-DVD box consisting of 1 DVD from each TROUBLE chapter
- She offers us a great 2020-2021 CDL
- She doesn't tour at all during 2021, rather focusing on her personal life and writing down lyrics.
- Then either at the very end of 2021 (november/december) or January 1st 2022 she releases a full album

I'm very curious to see what path she will choose after August 2020...

that has to be the most annoying voice I ever heard

Of course I want a new album too but I'd be very happy already if we simply get a DVD of Promised Land.

Wow this is really bad

Should be summer 2018 when he (and two others) joined

I want to know if the father will have to pay child support.

This.
The only thing I rly wann know/see is a babybelly photo (I imagine it whould look so sweet) and the name of the child. I don´t care for a photo, the father or other private stuff to be honest

I would actually like to see the room of the baby. Like I bet the interior is amazingly beautiful or maybe just a few of the clothing items the baby is wearing too

her songs just don't sound right if it's not her :no:no:no

I'm sorry but I have to disagree. This is the best cover of an ayu song ever. I love how he kept the drama of the song but with his own style, which is fantastic.

A super rare exception. I also loved Scott Murphy's cover of Voyage, but that's about it. All the female renditions I've heard were awful.
