ayu's album tracks that should've been singles
 

I'm listening to ANGEL'S SONG and suddenly think why this song wasn't a single. And I'm thinking as well for other tracks that could made better singles. What do you guys think?

For example: for NEXT LEVEL, what if it was rollin'/Sparkle instead or Rule/Sparkle. And (for <miss>understood) what if it's "Startin'/rainy day" instead of Born to be...?

I think some album tracks make better singles than the released ones, plus the tracks could made better PVs.

Interesting one! I'm fulfilled with Ayu's choices, but some there is always space for minor changes:

-Flower Garden should have been a regular track in I am... AND a single
-JEWEL/1 LOVE as rumoured would have been the best single off Secret
-NEXT LEVEL instead of Rule or Sparkle (any way, I don't love those)
-And even a recut from NL instead of S/S

I wish HONEY, WE WISH, Energize rollin', MY ALL, and (d)Lma should be singles. :)

Nah, a recut single is kinda lame unless it had like..3 b-sides. :P

I would have liked everywhere nowhere to be a single. :(

A Song For XX from A Song for XX. Secret from Secret.

Definitely Jewel/1 LOVE, since Secret obviously lacks singles. :P

I think these would've been awesome singles:

- A Song for XX / any track already included in a single from the album
- Duty / SCAR
- Real me / WE WISH
- Heartplace / Over
- everywhere nowhere / July 1st
- ANGEL'S SONG / HANABI ~episode II~ OR forgiveness
- my name's WOMEN / any non-ballade off of MY STORY
- GAME / About You
- Criminal / is this LOVE? OR In the Corner OR Pride
- 1 LOVE / JEWEL
- Startin' / kiss o' kill
- GUILTY / Marionette
- identity / any of the upbeat songs

sparkle/rollin'
rainy day/in the corner
because of you instead of FORGIVENESS

JEWEL should have been a single. since it was promoted so extensively in 2006.

I think Jewel should of been a single and WE WISH should of been a single too.

yea, i agree with WE WISH as a single.

JEWEL/1 LOVE is so tempting!

i also think that walking proud should've been a single as well.

from A Song for XX
- SIGNAL should have been released rather than For My Dear...
- POWDER SNOW would have been an awesome single

from LOVEppears
(more or less every song on this was single anywho lol)

from Duty
- Key would have been good cuz it so deserves a PV
- teddy bear also cuz it deserves a PV

from I am...
I'm happy with all these singles :P Guess cuz this was ayu at her peak

from RAINBOW
- WE WISH!!!!! This song is so awesome yet so understated :(

from Memorial address
Nope, fine with these too

from MY STORY
- Replace would have made a nice Christmas single I think

from (miss)understood
- get rid of Bold & Delicious/Pride and release In The Corner/criminal

from Secret
- JEWEL/1 LOVE (which we all though was coming)
- momentum cuz its so pretty :P
- kiss o' kill (or at least it could have had a PV)

from GUILTY
- Marionette would have been a sweet single

from NEXT LEVEL
Im pretty ok with these singles too

part of me

JEWEL/1 LOVE for sure should have been a single.
I also wish she would have made a really cute PV for HONEY. :)

SIGNAL/For My Dear...

Real me/Heartplace

HONEY

rainy day/Ladies Night

JEWEL/1 LOVE or JEWEL/momentum

Together When... (as a physical single) or Marionette

NEXT LEVEL/rollin' or Rule/NEXT LEVEL or Sparkle/rollin'

I like them all as they are.

Memorial Address

NEXT LEVEL

identity

JEWEL would have made a good A-side, it's well known even though it's only an album only track. Maybe cause she sang it at Kouhaku.

Part of me too! It would've just needed a better PV.

^ what?! how dare you! :P
i love the part of Me pv.. one of my faves! XD


lol guys just imagine if she released JEWEL as a single.. that single wouldve sold lotssss.. :thud

I'd probably buy marionette/ourselves single with this gothic thematic for my fried who loves gothic things ^^
