This will be nice if it's confirmed. I've been wondering just what will be done for the 40th single... let's keep our fingers crossed for some kind of cool DVD to come with it...

I have a really good feeling about this single for some reason, even though I wanted her next one to come around July or so, that is, if its true. And the colors are really pretty too! Its about time for her to release something extra good that everyone will like.

i just want her to slow down and actually take her time making some good music. =/ the lyrics of course have been pretty consistent in terms of their quality but the composition/arrangements haven't been to my liking for quite some time.. maybe since the "i am" CD? of course there were a few songs here and there that i have liked since then but the non-stop
verse
chorus
verse
chorus
little bridgey thing
chorus
chorus;
style is getting is a bit boring for me. oh well, im sure whatever she sells will hit #1 for at least a few days although the long-run sales won't be so hot. take a look at startin'. ><"
so anyways in conclusion, i think she needs to slow down. i don't want to see my first favourite artist enter some kind of popularity slump (even more so than she is currently).

HEAVEN and Will aren't like that. Because of you, ourselves, HANABI ~Episode II~, Replace need I say more?

I'm looking forward to it though! I hope it really isn't May though. Too soon. Maybe just one month back.

I agree, M was semi chaotic, and I think that was one of the many things that made it great :x

GRAVITY sounds so weird. I hope it is rock-ish, I'm dying for a new rock-like song.

I feel like this single is going to have huge promotions. first press, extras, a lot of remixes like the old days, a great cover!

Ohhh.. I like the GRAVITY title.. REALLY hoping for another Rockish song.. I love Ayu's rockish songs..
Not sure what I'm hoping for Now & Forever..
nothing like heaven though.. maybe a beautiful ballad.. or something as .. powerful (IMO) as endless sorrow

Hope this will be confirmed soon.

OMG, you think exactly like me! I too really want GRAVITY to be a great rockish song and I think it will be by the looks of it. Now & Forever sounds like it is gonna be a great ballad, I have a feeling it will be just as good as Moments! I wasn't too fond of HEAVEN either and I too LOVE endless sorrow! I think it is def. one of her best songs EVER! If it is like that I will have no complaints!

Well, everyone seems to think that the release will be too soon but I don't think I'd be able to wait any longer with the news reaching us this early. I have a REALLY GOOD FEELING about this single and I think it will knock our socks off Especially since it is the 40th single and it better be good (I have no doubt that it will be)!! I really do want another AMAZING, ADDICTIVE ballad - the ballad tracks on (miss)understood are ok and some are good for a while but they aren't very 'memorable'... Ballads like M, Moments, Endless Sorrow, walking proud (IMO), RAINBOW, Dearest, Dolls, Who... ~Across the universe~ are some of her best and I never get tired of them! Especially Endless Sorrow and Moments Endless Sorrow was my first Ayu song that I cried to because you can just feel the emotion and everything in the song!

I have a really good feeling about this single as well... though I suppose it's never a good idea to judge from just song titles, hmm? However, I do like both titles! I agree with everyone who thinks Now & Forever will be a ballad and GRAVITY will be a rock song. I am soooooo excited... I can't wait to hear another rock song by Ayu <3

I'm going to have low expectations so that Ayu can surprise me with something I never expected! I hope she has a great cover and the songs are good! I always have loved her summer singles, ESPECIALLY H and &. I wish she would do another big single like that again! Not just "Song 1, Song 2, Boring mix, Instrumental 1, Instrumental 2." Please throw a B-side in the mix this time!!

Ayu's singles have no value really anymore. Most of the other singles I buy have B-sides that you won't find on the albums, which gives me a reason to keep listening to them even after the album comes out! I don't TOUCH my old Ayu singles after the album releases...

So I'll keep low expectations and secretly hope that I'm pleasantly surprised!
