What is Ayumi's latest music since Inspire?
 

I haven't been following on Ayumi since her My Story album. Recently, I saw her new album with a white cover in a store but I didn't see the title.
Could u guys help me get upto date and some links for music would be great.

PS: Also did Utada made any more music since her American debut?

She has released 3 singles since MY STORY. They are STEP you, fairyland and HEAVEN and is going to release a new single, Bold & Delicious soon.

Utada has just released a single in Japan called Be My Last.

^yep, and ayumi also released an orchestral version of MY STORY called MY STORY Classical

Yes that one too :) thanks for the reminder

Oh wow, How did you manage to stay away from her? Go buy all the singles! Her next album is on the first of January, Bold And Delicious is on the 30th this month, Heaven was 14th September! Get them quick, STEP YOU is amazing.. For ratings and info, check the Ayu Chatroom and News section! Go go go! Faster faster faster! :D

white cover? is it HEAVEN?

Well, she released a video for Easy Breezy. She released You Make Me Want To Be A Man in the UK as her first single but it didnt do well, it debuted at number 227 even with some coverage and an expensive PV which cost 500 000 Dollars. IDJ are to blame, they didnt supply the CD to stores. Devil Inside and Exodus 04 were also released as singles in the US but they were only radio singles. Devil Inside did very well and went to number 1 in the hot dance charts.

She also released short clips for the tracks from Exodus. They are called Fluximations and they are all manga/anime styled animations. If you want them, don't hesitate to ask. The fluximations are for Opening, Devil Inside, Exodus 04, The Workout, Easy Breezy, Tippy Toe, Kremlin Dusk and Hotel Lobby. They are exclusive to handphones in Japan with a special attribute, but I have them all in my computer, WMV format.

In Japan, she released Be My Last and it broke records for the Most Digital Downloads. It sold poorly however, with 150 000 copies so far. The CD and DVD only featured one track, not even an instrumental was there. Her next single will be Passion for the game Kingdom Hearts 2, it will be released on the 24th of December. Ayu beat it flat with HEAVEN which sold more than 300 000 copies and is destined to break Fairyland's sales. Heaven shocked everyone on its release, it didn't debut at number 1 in the daily charts. Instead it got number 2. But it soon went to number 1 and the weekly charts also displayed number 1. Info on Heaven and Be My Last is in the News section.

See, lots have happened... :P

no its white but it shows her whole body.
I'm trying to catch up with some Japanese music again. I was turned off when she did Inspire.
I'll start putting up all my ayumi posters again:)

I would like to see that anime like PPV of utada and her latest music from Japan. I'm excited about Utada's music being on Kingdom Hearts 2 since that is one of the reason I bought the first one. I heard that Ayumi is also doing a music for a videogame.

then it must be MY STORY CLASSICAL without the box cover. I saw it too. It's just a gold emboss of the original MY SOTRY cover on white paper.

DDRTrent, I'm uploading the fluximations for Opening, Devil Inside,The Workout, Exodus 04, Easy Breezy and Kremlin Dusk for you. Hotel Lobby I will upload later. Tippy Toe is kinda very graphic, age verification please. Jk, who uses that anyway, if you want Tippy Toe I'll post it here too. ^^

Ayu_is_Destiny, 25/1/2005, Startin' c/w Rainy Day!

Yes, she's singing "Startin'" and "Rainy day" for Shin Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams.

All right, here's the fluximations!

Combined WMV
-Opening
-Devil Inside
-Exodus 04
-Easy Breezy
-Kremlin Dusk
Use Winamp, for some reasons it plays clearly there, the quality increases with time. This clip is kinda Low to Medium Quality I think.

A new Naturally CD! I like that music. is the mix for that song good?

So are the flaximation animation like a screensaver for cellphones? or just short clips to watch?
