At least avex is kind enough to say sorry

[bluegie]

i dun want the apology... i want the third A...

[ayu_fan929]

^I doubt there will be the 3rd A, since they already updated the tracklist again.

can someone please translate the whole article? I'd like to know word-for-word what avex wrote. and also, does it say something about ayu herself not liking the song or something???

[bluegie]

of course i know.. well... can't do anything. avex decides to do that, then let them do that. i won't let them trash ayu...

[Ryoko]

I find that in this instance, avex was quite professional in apologizing for this. I'm glad they had this announcement.

[evolution105]

avex + apology = me happy ^_^!
I am looking forward to this super cool 40th single.

You write and lower in regard to production advance, as for tune, 2 tunes "of BLUE BIRD" of title tune and "Beautiful Fighters", furthermore in 3 numbers "Ladies Night? Another night?

I don't understand the bolded part? Maybe ayu felt that the 3rd song wasnt ready for the single yet?

[ohsixthirty]

so there WAS supposed to be a third song. ah well, i wish they had included what happened. i'm curious.

anyhow, nice to see the name of the remix, i'm really hopnig the remix is good, i'm most looking forward to it of all tracks on this single.

[etheruraura]

Now that they've said there was supposed to be one, and Ayu just didn't think it was ready just yet, then I think we could be seeing another single after BLUE BIRD quite soon.

So is this guy remixing BLUE BIRD?

yep, thats him, it mentions harderground recordings on there also (which reflects the name of the remix).

http://www.harderground.com/

and also, i noticed on the cisco-record site that it mentions Yoji Biomehanika...i wish i knew what it said about him, because if this Nish guy sounds like Yoji, the remix could be pretty good i think.

[elepop]

Nice to see they are actually setting this clear.

I really hope the songs are "super cool" and I can't wait to hear more.

When they say "mixed by", do they mean "composed by"? If so, anybody knows Koji Morimoto?

[Ryoko]

No, it means that the person who mixed the songs (corrected the levels of the sounds - like hearing the beat in some parts and not hearing it in others, etc - it's actually not that easy - my music teacher does it and when he tried to teach me, I realized how hard it was and I generally catch on easy).

Composed means that they wrote the music to the song. Koji Morimoto isn't a composer - he mixes the song so he sounds right to our ears.

That's the first thing I thought of too... -_- but then again, a new A would probabl not be able to compete with it anyways, and it would be a total flop, so I think it's better this way.

The answer is no.
