It has been confirmed that Ayu will film more PV's since she has returned from London.

Rumours/Information: thanks to Koumori for compilation

General Rumours/Info:

- ayu shooting new PV somewhere in the Middle East

- New song Party queen, revealed at CDL 11-12 as part of a medley near the end of the set.

- New song called how beautiful you are, a medium-tempo ballad that will be the theme for new drama Saigo Kara Nibanme no Koi.
Lyrics: ayumi hamasaki
Composer: Timothy Wellard
Arrangement: Yuta Nakano

- New song called Shake it. A dancer from a PV shoot in London said that's the name of the song they were working on.

- Ayu tweeted about having to use a military tank in her PV shoot.

- Photoshoot with Leslie (?) in a field/open field area.

- Japanese fan apparently listened to part of a new Ayumi song:

"I've tweeted about ayu in English before, and it seems like this person from the UK stumbled upon my tweets. There was an Asian superstar doing filming near his home and he took some photos and videos, but he didn't know who it was. He didn't know who to show the photos to, so he searched on Twitter and found me. (laugh) It's a rock song! By the way, he seems to have deleted the video, so we can't find it anymore. (laugh)" - Translation by Misa-chan

- Ayu tweeted that she was working with:

"Tasuku, CMJK, Nobita-kun, Timmy (Timothy Wellard), Masashi Muto, Leslie Kee and Ryan."

- UniversalExtras posted this (They also posted for extras for Microphone and Sexy little things):

"Extreme Look for a music video for a Japanese musician we are looking for males and females who have extreme looks ie punk, rocker, tattoos, piercings, crazy hair ect to pretend to be at a night club.

Tumbler for a music video for a Japanese musician we are looking for males and females who know how to do tumbling for a scene in a night club.

Scientists for a music video for a Japanese musician we are looking for males and females to pretend to be scientists from the future.

Drones for a music video for a Japanese musician we are looking for males and females to pretend to be drones from the future."

The Middle East info made me much more interested on this album, even though I'm not enjoying the songs so far.

*--* hope²

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

It's either a digital single or chakuuta. It says 配信 which means digital.

[YUKARI]

I want digital single more than chakuuta!

I pray for her to promote it on tv ~.~

[Onton]

Personally I hope she won't release her album so soon.
Cuz she has been criticizing so heavily about she making noise for her album using some breaking news (Like her ear, wedding and divorced).

I think the divorced issue won't help on the sales on the next album (if not hurting) and
I sincerely wish that she will release the album after the news is fading out..

[rickyspelbos]

Wow. Another one! Looking forward to "Shake It" lol! XD

I had a dream about album again after i read the "middle east" and "12 new tracks + 4 pv's" new info. This dream was a nightmare. All of the song was awful and AHS name this album as the worst of her albums. I remember the PV itself was pretty nice (we had some pictures with screencaps in this dream ;D) one was Ayu in dark coat with a big hood, very edgy scenes on the desert. But the song itself was veery boring. And I remember the awful covers and had the worst booklet ever (something like FIVE's, photos was decent, but the photoshoper works was ugly as hell, her skin was orange and it looked like very LQ) Ironically, media named this album as Ayu's best work ever -_-

I hope my dream will not come true.
I just remember the feeling of dissapoitment.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

I'm hoping there are no singles released at all. MAYBE a digital single a few weeks in advance, but that's it.

I'd love an introduction + 12 songs + 2 interludes + a hidden track! haha trying not to get my hopes up!

15 tracks + hidden track... *drools*

[Miidoriness]

REALLY CAN'T WAIT FOR HER NEW CD!!!! XD

[freedreamer]

No singles would be really interesting. I mean...she has the ability to release singles but hasnt announced any...so maybe there really arnt any plans.
I think it's gonna be out in March going by the style...
