New album 'Colours' out July 2nd [II]

[orangeakira]

Angel is still a complete rip-off of curtain call, and the animation is atrocious for feel the love. The rest are nice though.

[AyuGAME]

its not that bad, i'm getting used to it...

[Zeke.]

You know what makes me mad? The fact that Jasmine and Crystal Kay have had songs on their EDM-influenced albums that are so much better than the ones Ayu has had produced by these "international DJs". XOXO is just dreadful for a REDONE production... He has had some REALLY great songs (Live It Up / J.Lo | Nicole Scherzinger's solo album works - and I REALLY dislike Nicole!). It's a real shame...

I was a little disappointed too tbh, but I still liked the songs so I didn't mind so much.

but really, I couldn't tell if it was Ayu or the producers that were fucking up the songs in the end. I still don't know who is responsible for the Angel travesty. But whatever.


I'm just happy the songs are more enjoyable than her other recent songs.

Although I think despite XOXO and Hello new me all songs are great, I have to agree that Take It Outside is a REALLY great song!

[channy]

I am longing for the full version of Armin's dub mix of "Terminal"... I am playing the 3:37min ASOT version on loop :'(

^ According to the XOXO / Terminal booklet scans, XOXO wasn't even touched by RedOne (Nadir Khayat) himself... only his production team worked on it. False advertising, if anything.

Nice. So it's like a "my people will meet with your people" type of thing.

ohno..no wonder, XOXO doesn't sound like RedOne's works on lady gaga's music.
maybe ayu just wants a song that connects to her more.

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

Omg RedOne didn't even work on it? :-0

Although my problem (though minimal) with Xoxo is the lyrics, not the music. I actually find the music ok. The lyrics are the tacky part though. Oh well, it's supposed to be that way I suppose. The video is just as tacky. I think she was going for that.

Musically I don't dislike any of the tracks. They're all fine. Now & 4eva, Pray and Hello new me belong on a more cohesive album though.

[ayuPanda]

is there a commercial out for the album?

[tsumekaze_]

I must say that lelio gains tons of quality in hd. I actually kind of like it now.

[visionfactory]

^I must say that I like XOXO in HD too! And I hated it at first

[Ruan Borges]

EVERYTHING gets better in full HD.. I really like all the videos, just don't care about Feel the love ayupan ver. at all, 'cause I dislike animation MVs.

I love everything about this album, it's a great summer album for me <3

[LEOyumi]

I actually think XOXO sounds a lot like Gaga's first album. I can feel RedOne's touch on it, even if it was just his team working on it. That doesn't really say too much because I'm not a big fan of his works haha but I love XOXO.

i really feel that XOXO have the RedOne sign, sounds very like "Starship" or "On the floor" to me...

I don't know about RedOne, but I felt that one of the sounds/the beat sounded "On the Floor"/J. Lo-ish, too.

It's so strange that we don't have any pics of the CDs until now '-' Most of the next week releases, like Tomomi Itano's debut album, already have pictures spread all over the internet
