New song: JEWEL

[Coelacanth]

Yeah, usually not. I guess it depends on the ballad. Pride had the BG singers, HEAVEN didn't.

[truehappiness]

I think Pride had them because of the very loud not-Ayu vocals present in the song..

Like.. you should know what I mean..
During the 'matsu hana ga~!' parts or something..

[~X2RADialbomber~]

Peco or Princess better not be in the performance. I don't know why they stand so close to Ayu, it makes them look like a trio.

[alt.total-loser]

^ Ditto.

[pop909]

i hate peco so much..

princess owns.

but really, they sand to close. I hate it in parts wer ayu doesnt sing and its like peco and princess together. its just high pitched screaming.

[truehappiness]

I honestly think if Ayu had the same job as them, she'd sound the same LOL

We've never really heard PRINCESS or PECO actually 'sing'.. :| Just like 'backup' singing..

[ronin542001]

Not much longer! The wait is killing me. And Peco is funny! My friends and I watch Ayu's DVDs and we love to see what kind of funny thing Peco will do next : D

lyrics of JEWEL based on MS performance (thanks to teth@JPM)

灰色の四角い　空の下を今日も
あらゆる欲望が　埋め尽くす
その中で光を　見失わず前を
向いて歩けるのは　いつも君が

この街の片隅にも　汚れのない
ものが残っている事　教えてくれるから

疲れ果てた体で　眠りについた君を
僕は息をひそめて　見ていた
世界中でただひとり　僕だけが知っている
無防備で愛しい横顔

当たり前のように　陽射しが降り注ぎ
優しい風揺れた　ある日の事

僕の中で何かが　そっと強く
確かに変わっていくのを　ひとり感じていた

悲しくなんかないのに　涙がこぼれたのは
君の想いが　痛いくらいに
僕の胸の奥の　キズ跡に染み込んで
優しさに　変えてくれたから

もしも君が深い悲しみに出会ったら
僕にもわけてくれるといいな
その笑顔のためなら　なんだって出来るだろう
僕の大切な宝物
僕の大切な宝物

haiiro no shikakui sora no shita wo kyou mo

ooh! I love teth <3

Anyone willing to translate?

[immel]

I'm quite sure that masa will be giving us a translation in a pretty near future .

[paperbag]

Who's masa? The webmaster?

[immel]

masa is a great person, he has been providing the international Ayu world with translations and tremendous articles for a very long time. Almost all of our song translations, the one that you can find on for example ayumi.primenova, is made by him.

He's not the webmaster.

[paperbag]

^ thanks for clearing it up for me. You're way fast at replying! lol

[truehappiness]

I lawl at the 'excite' online translator.

You always : walking of the burial of all the desires completely
under the gray, square, and emptiness by not losing sight of light in
that and turning ahead today.

It is taintless also in the corner of this town.
Because it is taught that the one remains in the thing

You who attached to sleep by the body to be exhausted were looked,
and I knit my brows and was looking at the breath.
It is defenseless that only the servant knows all over the world and
a dear profile.

The thing on a certain day like seeming natural that pours down the
sunbeam and ..sweet breeze.. shakes.

Something is quietly strong in me.
I felt the certain change by one.

Tears' having spilt though it is not sadly ..what it is.. : by think
of you painful.
Because it soaks into the Kiz mark in the interior of my chest and it
changed it into gentleness

Be not good when it divides into me when you meet deep sadness.
Important treasure of important treasure servant of me who will be
able to do anything for the smile

[~X2RADialbomber~]

Wow, if they're the lyrics, then they are GREAT

[alt.total-loser]

From what I can understand of those lyrics, they're the best from this year for me. Lovely.

[Choyan]

The song is so nice X3...

and it's just Ayu + piano o-o...

[immel]

I like the excite version... it's ... exciting... err.

[ALPHY]

Oh my, JEWEL is really pretty. *.*
