AYU ALBUM PROJECT?!!!!

[myway25]

Like i suggested in the original post---i was inspired by the success of the fanbook project. It was just an idea. If you're not interested, you don't have to take part--but i think it's a bit much to say this project is "pointless/repetitive". What if some of the AHS members didn't get to submit their letters for the fanbook and can't particiate in the DVD project because they are shy or don't have a vid-cam? This is simply another opportunity to show Ayu how much we love her and how much we enjoy her music. We're not here to competite whose project is better or bigger. If we do this, it's because we love ayu, not out of duty or anything.

If you can't sing, it's all right, you can do #2 - either narration for other language. Heck you don't even have to sing it yourself. Maybe you can write the lyrics and if someone happens to know your language, they can sing it for you instead. OR if you know how to play an instrument, you can make your own cover The point is NOT to find the best singers or pick the one who is the most talented!

I thought doing polls would be the best method because for sure, popular songs are going to get multiple submissions---how do you suppose we decide on which cover we put on the CD? Not everyone likes the same voice or style even. However, if you know another way to do this, please feel free to comment--- Perhaps i've missed some great way.

In terms of songs---yes there are a lot of them and we can certainly consider doing a poll to see which 100 or 50 or 25 songs to cover. But keep in mind that she has or at least in recent albums a lot of interludes... Those won't be covered. The repeat songs in A BEST 1 AND A BEST 2 won't be included either.

Also, this is why the tentative due date is so late. The beginning of August isn't for another SIX MONTHS! And if we do need more time, we can always give this to Ayu as a Christmas present. There is no rush to get things done asap---so we can afford to spend some time. The fanbook only had so many letters because of time constraints. We don't have that. So even if it is 150 songs, there'll be covered eventually.

Another repeat, none of the details are set in stone---so please don't get upset over them. Everything is tentative.

PS. Those of you who showed interest, THX!! hopefully, this can all work out

This is a great idea!

Though... for a solo song, I'll just play my instrument. Haha. As soon as I can find it >< And, even though I'm not that great of a singer, I'll be more than willing to participate in a "choir song" (Who..., MY ALL, Red Line, etc.).

Will we send this to TA's address? (Or, if she travels around that time, meet her wherever she's at?)

[non3ko]

I like this idea.

The practicality of it though... I'm not entirely sure she would listen to all of the songs, her discography is ginormous. It'd be nice to have it on AHS as a contest of sorts, or Ayu fan song collections.

[PoetGirl]

I agree with njanjayrp :/

[kirei_ayumi]

this is an amazing idea.
ayu's discography rerecorded by her fans?! awesome

[y_nathz]

This is an amazing project
I'm not sure if I'll join this or no since my bad singing voice might kill Ayu XD
But if anyone in Indonesia planned to do a choir just tell me
*if we do it together she won't realize how bad is my voice XD*

[Mari-chan]

Nice idea... but really only for the one, who can sing.
I would never send someone a song, I sung.. because I totaly can't sing.
But nice idea..!

[panda87]

sounds good, but it'll be a narrow competition from such a large fanbase. like, who do you consider a legit singer to have his/her's selected? it would disappoint many.

and as someone said, i don't think ayu would sit and listen to her discography again. ayu even mentioned herself that she doesn't [like] to listen to her owns songs. but i'll keep an eye on this. but to make it extra special, we should write in our own languages to make it extra authentic from our hearts and representing who from what country and what background she has reached.

Honestly I think we're getting overboard... The Fan book and the DVD is Ok.. but this it's a bit creepy and we're way way way overdoing it.

I have a suggestion...

Why not just include this on the DVD? Or better yet choose one song from every album and everyone's going to make a video of it then edit it and put it all together into one video like a montage. (I can't explain the idea well but I'm sure some of you got it)
I think that sounds way way way better and less creepy.

[nanakopy87]

ya.i think include this(maybe one or two songs like boys and girls,red line,who or my all) into the DVD.this is too much.i don't think ayu will appreciate all these and i don't think she has so many time to listen to all furthermore she said she don't listen to her own songs.so,i don't really want to join this project

[AyUta]

Yes, I would like this as well, although I probably wont participate. I have a lot of trouble with making covers lol.

[Embleu]

What about music videos? I've always wanted to interpret visually one of her un-visualized songs.

[jean-baptiste]

this sounds awesome!
i'd so love to take part.

@BanaCherry: to be honest, i thought we were overdoing with the DVD thing. it all seemed so complicated.
but i do agree, its a little too much.

maybe we can send the DVD project and this one in one package so it doesnt seem like too much.

This sounds really good, I've been taking vocals tracks and re-recording the tracks over them for a while now. I was thinking if for like Boys & Girls we have people playing instruments as well as singing, make it a real forum effort!!
