Ayu's singles (How would you like her next single?)

Free & Easy had 2
Voyage had 2
forgiveness had 2
No way to say had 5
CAROLS had 2
Moments had 2
Bold & Delicious had 2
fairyland had 2
HEAVEN had 2
BLUE BIRD had 2
talkin' 2 myself had 1
And Rule/Sparkle had 4/2 depending on the jacket.

They merely slowed down after Daybreak, but never really stopped completely.

Thats sorta what I meant (even though I didn't say it...). But, the number was so small after that per single, and the remix albums became scarce as well. And now that I look at it, I think it'd be more accurate to say "pretty much stopped after I am...". :/ And this isn't a stab at you, rather the number of remixes, but if the remixes came out any slower, they'd be in reverse.

But seriously, and realistically, if it follows this pattern, the remixes could very possibly stop entirely in a few years. I mean, since I am..., they've become fewer and farther between. Bottom line: I want more remixes... as much as I know thats not gonna happen and as much as it saddens me...

And on an off topic note, its times like this that make me glad that there are some remix albums I never got. Like ayu-mi-x 2, The Other Side CDs, and her vinyls (though I doubt I'll ever be able to get Ayu's vinyls...)

I agree with every word of that

of course. I love ayu remixes so much I would LOVE so much for there to be more on her singles. But since they don't seem too popular anymore, I guess our luck ran out

I know some people don't like having a bunch of remixes, but I like to have as many as possible. (current record holder (on my iPod): M, with 14 remixes) But I mean I want her getting back to how her singles were back in the beginning half of her career when every single had 6 or 7 remixes on it. Its far too boring and monotonous to have only the originals and maybe one or 2 remixes. Like, in the past several years, the remixes have almost completely ceased, and its really sad. What I wouldn't give for another remix album. But I'll stop myself before my off-topic rant goes on too long.

i didn't include the acoustic versions because i remember that you prefer electronic remixes. Such a shame your didn't like the remo con remix, 'cause i loved it i think ayu may release eventually another remix cd, but i don't find very plausible she may release a single like surreal or M anymore

How about this?

[ComatoseBunnySnatcher]

new single : Urban

Urban is a track that utilizes the landscape of the big city: instead of using high technology and intricate compositions, the song consists of Ayumi singing about stepping on dog poo while walking in central park, while in the background a chorus of homeless people curse repeatedly. the instrumental consists of trash cans being hit, pots and pans, and people coughing to the beat (thanks to the poluted air).

The second track is "Ugly Devil". In it Ayumi describes the personality and appearence of another well known popstar, who goes by the name of Koda Kumi.
The track sounds like Cradle of Filth with a dash of electronic and the sounds of Peco murdering hungry street cats.

[extepan]

one song and 10 remixes, plus a CD+DVD version

[StarSUCKER]

I miss her old maxi-single format too, but it's not as big a money-maker for avex...

I'd be content for another single with a few remixes, especially AOVs. Style-wise, who know what's next, but I wish she'd do some more glam rock-influenced songs, like 1 LOVE and until that Day..., stuff like that.

Aaah yes! I would love to hear that and girlish with less-squeaky vocals...

Wow... I'm surprised that someone actually remembers something about me. I didn't really think that anyone on here kept up with what I say. Thanks, I guess...

I just found the Remo-con remix way too repetative and it had no substance. All percussion, and not very good percussion, imo. But to each his/her own

I know!!! Its really sad! Remixes just aren't good money-makers anymore, I guess. At this point, I'll take any remix I can get. After I get Sunrise/Sunset and SUPER EUROBEAT 200, I'm gonna wrok on comleting the rest of my Ayu-remix discography.

Not so much a simgle, more a full album, but I like the idea. Now, if she re-recorded the songs, that'd be awesome! (lol, ever since Mirrorcle World, everyone's crazy about the idea of re-recordings! XD

The remixes on the Rule single were horrible. The Days remix was the biggest disappointment of my life...it was such trash that I'm appalled that they let it appear on the single.

I don't want anymore re-recordings. The only one worthwhile is Depend on you. The others are nice, but they can't hold a flame to the original. SEASONS or anything else re-recorded just wouldn't be the same.

LOL. the Days remix is one of my favorite remixes ever. the GREEN one was awesome too. and SEASONS definitely needs to be re-recorded imo, her voice is so grating in the original track

[Kazeyomi]

Uhm, I wonder why she didn't re-record Poker Face with a new arrangement like 10th anniversary ones.

Maybe for Lady Gaga? lol

[ownsarai]

The Days remix is also my favorite!
I would love for her to re-record some more old tracks, like vogue-SEASONS-Far away.

yes! me too. i loved her version of vogue at PCDL, her vocals were a lot better. and she did an acapella of far away at AT08 that was also really good
