why no B&D and Pride....
 
Hi,



Just wondering Why B&D and Pride are not going to be on A BEST 2. I thought they where great songs and she sung B&D it a lot. It said that song between "evolution" and "B&D/Pride" would be featured. I think it is weird. I guess Avex thinks that sense it didn't sell that well it would bring down sales. What do you all think?

Maybe.. I dont like B&D too much myself, but I do love Pride but.. If its not in A BEST 2 it`s not... :(

B&D is a great song, no doubt (i love it soo much myself =]) however, if you look at the response of B&D from the general public, u cannot blame avex for making such a choice. This BEST is mean to help ayu recover some of her popularity and prove to others that she can still manage great sales, if ayu only want to include her favourite song, that would piss alot of people off

I believe that the fact that both are technically Sweetbox covers may be the reason, alhtough low sales are a factor as well, in my opinion.

Kodayumi 19th January 2007 12:40 PM

its a pity, that Pride is not in..

IM NOT BUYING ANYMORE!!!
































just kidding :D

ayu_fan929 19th January 2007 01:19 PM

Maybe she'll include it in A BEST 3 or she won't include them at all because they're not really popular with casual fans?

Keishi 19th January 2007 01:32 PM

Because she heard my prayer.
I maybe the only one who is glad that those two songs aren't in it. YAY

sora2522 19th January 2007 02:37 PM

well, i liked the songs, though the get tiring after a while

though it sorta clued in that it would be included if it was from evolution to B&D/PRIDE, so it was weird that it didn't make it

plus, it may be because of the sales, but oh well

freedreamer 19th January 2007 03:08 PM

I think it was just a for fun single..haha
Anyway, i won't wanna see just coz of GEO is kills her sales

Qt Mashi 19th January 2007 03:34 PM

hmmm i'm really glad Ayu didnt put these 2 songs in there :P

summersnow 19th January 2007 03:56 PM

I don't really like B&D too... but Pride is a great song... *sigh*

It could be how we interpret it/they wrote it

Up to and including B&D/Pride or just up to B&D/Pride...

slowmoth 19th January 2007 08:26 PM

Because they are in one of her worst selling singles

Oh, come on. A BEST 2 isn't even OUT yet, and you're thinking about an A BEST 3 already?? :P lol Just kidding.

Maybe she said, "I'm gonna perform it at every concert, so they'll hear the song [Bold & Delicious] plenty of times!" :D

But, yeah, maybe it would've brought down sales like you said. I have to say that Bold & Delicious is more of a track that could be on a CD like A BEST more than Pride. Pride just doesn't seem as popular/concert crowd pleasing (even though I'm sure a lot of us can say we love it!).

Terri 19th January 2007 09:29 PM

Maybe because they blowed.

LacusClyne 20th January 2007 01:15 AM

maybe because the 2 songs aren't popular in Japan?

CREA.tive 20th January 2007 01:29 AM

Not only the single did not sell well, some songs are way way way better than them....

Ayumiko 20th January 2007 05:13 AM

come to think of it...there is no sweetbox songs on A BEST 2 :D If she did add b&d...that would really suck for me...lol...also I dont really think it fits well with the others...just like how I felt it was odd in m(u)

explodingbird 20th January 2007 05:42 AM

I too find it odd, and love both songs and wish they would be on there. That being said, I have to wonder if maybe there were legal issues with Sweetbox's label/management/whatever, with Ayu using GEO's compositions again? I figure, they worked out the agreement for (miss)understood, but maybe that agreement was for that album alone. Regardless, I figure part of it at least has to be about problems obtaining the rights for use on A BEST 2.
