Lyrics mystery

[noidea]

no, i never wrote that, i think girlish and Memorial Address were SUPPOSED to be hidden tracks, but then ayu noticed the albums would be really short if the tracks are hidden tracks and decided to include them in the tracklist so the album seems longer, i noticed that she ONLY included hidden tracks in albums that had many songs already, but Dutyy and Memorial Address were short, so she wasnt able to include them as hidden tracks, peoplöe rather buy an 8 track album than an 7 track album

[JackieRos]

^no sorry i was just saying

[zyoeru]

What about kanariya? Were the lyrics to that released in LOVEppears?

[JackieRos]

i know this kanariya is a hidden track so i dont think so

[NintendoHTF1242]

kanariya was a hidden track too. So no lyrics were included.

[Taru86]

The lyrics for 'Memorial Address' and 'flower garden' are not printed in the album booklets, but the lyrics for Memorial Address are printed in the AT03-04 booklet, and 'flower garden's' are printed in the booklet for AT02...
I wonder why

[noidea]

^ Maybe a mistake done by the staff?
Like the STEP you in AT08 DVD 2 or the misspelled unplugged on AT02

maybe they weren't shown because they are bery dep and sad...or they frogot...

I'm sorry but that has absolutely no relevance to the lyrics not being in the booklet, otherwise half the (miss)understood album would have mystery lyrics too.

[emi♡]

maybe there's no lyrics for girlish because the designer wanted to put those two pictures there on that side...and there was no room for the lyrics...

[waterballoon]

Maybe to Ayu, these songs: girlish, flower garden and +... are not really supposed to have "lyrics".

Sure, she might have written lyrics, but to us, I think she's giving the message of "interpret this song/give this song your own lyrics based on what you listen of the melody."

They are all straightforward happy-sounding songs...

Though I wish Humming 7/4 would be a hidden track in MY STORY, then I can pretend that it never existed on The Perfect Album...

Lyrics of Kanariya were revealed on A COMPLETE, so it's not secret lyrics. While lyrics of flower garden weren't revealed on concert dvds and this is strange. I guess kanariya's lyrics not a secret at all, they just didn't have a chance to public it

Kanariya lyrics:

Spoiler:

[jiarongisme]

Memorial address's complete lyrics was revealed in AT03-04's booklet. But not on the album itself.

[terra]

There are some kind of explanation for both Memorial address and girlish on the booklet of respective albums, in Japanese but I can't translate it very well

P.S
These are written on each booklet
-On girlish
この楽曲は制作者の意図により歌詞を記載しておりません

-On Memorial address
この楽曲は制作者の意図により掲載されていません

[Ayumi_lover]

"Author of this song decided to not public lyrics" well, it's general idea of both messages^^

[alternarist]

i don really understand why ayu doesnt want to reveal the lyrics since its possible for Japanese to listen to the songs and write it all out. AND THEN publish it on the net.

It's still the same thing.

[Ayumi_lover]

not actually, kanji is very interesting thing, and sometimes lyrics are not that clear

[nanakopy87]

yaya...although pronounciation is almost same,but sometimes there is more than 1 meaning.

what????? Memorial address is a cover?????
this is the first time i hear that!!!

i tried to search for the song you said, but no results, can someone provide the song please??


and about the question in the first post......
maybe these songs are very dear to Ayu and she simply doesn't want to share them with the rest of the world. i guess she just wants to keep them to herself^^

I don't think that's why she wouldn't include lyrics. ^o^;

I'm sure there's a reason, I'm going to go with that Ayumi really wanted people to listen to the words with the music and all, altogether. Creating an atmosphere? If that's true, she really does think of every way to get her message across XD

Then why would she put them in an album? XD She's not stupid. She knows if she does that, people will put lyrics up, so if she thought like that she wouldn't make them public.
