Curtain call = a Good-Bye to Fans?

[StarSUCKER]

Definitely not a goodbye to fans. Remember what she said about her ear recently? She's going to keep on no matter what! And (insert deity here) bless her for it!

[mcluva420]

i HOPE NOT! it is slightly possible though

[perfectodub]

is just a song for ending her next concerts
you know..."curtaing call" when a show end..."curtain call"

we knows that ayu always made songs for special parts of her concert
like Humming / Ladies Night / winding road...

stop this obsession for ayumi farewell

[jbrat2219]

The lyrics sound like a song to someone she loves, the title sounds like a song for the end of her career, so who know. I guess you can put this song in the "ambiguous" folder of Ayu's lyrics. And for Ayu to be running out of "crap" to sing about she would have had to have written "crap" in the first place and I don't feel any of her lyrics are such =P.

[ayuni]

no. dont even say it. ayumi will not leave us.

[Ayu_no_tenshi]

the "words she can't say" are "i love you"

[Jeremy911]

Why name the album NEXT LEVEL if she is just going to retire? That alone should be enough evidence that Ayu has at least a few mmore albums in her.

[AyUmIXx]

hmmm.. it may be the song for the fans..just like MY ALL does...
but nothing hidden on that song... just a song dedication to someone..

but you're kinda making sense here, i mean all the sudden, Ayu will do the longest Arena Tours ever this year...that could mean something though..

hmmm i hope it's not her message to retire...no Ayuuuuuu!!!!!!

[chloeM]

i dont think so... it's just one simple lyrics

[GRACE]

You're over complicating simple lyrics, since it's fairly obvious in the context of the song that "the words she can't say" are "I love you" as people have said.

And lol at people going "She's run out of crap to say," yes, because simplistic lyrics are bad and not thought out at ALL. Seriously >.>... Sometimes the most thought goes into the simplest things. She could go on poetically and deeply about this very subject (oh hai thar together when...), but she chose not to. She chose to make it simple, make it resounding and clear.

Or she was drunk, one or the other. Either one is very possible for Ayumi Hamasaki :3

[Max_ZZZ]

if this song is for her fans, whether she is retiring or not

then... dayum, she surre as hell is writing a lot of songs for her fans lately lol

[Chu-Lip506]

no, it can't be at first i was like is it a real goodbye and then i think to my self, her album is called Next Level, soooo......maybe she means a curtaion call on a old love with someone

Didn't we already go over this with Memorial Address, like 5+ years ago?

[truehappiness]

Oi, another fan that's thinking too much.

Reminds me of the "Memorial address" / "Replace" / "Secret's lyrics" talk.. blech.

She's probably not going anywhere anytime soon.

[Tony G]

I don't think she's going to retire. I'm scared she's going to, but I don't think that's gonna be for a few years at least.

Actually Ayumi will leave us. Face it sooner or later, the latter is preferred, she is going to retire and there is nothing we can do.

Actually I was thinking that she named the album NEXT LEVEL as a way to say "I named the album NEXT LEVEL as a way to say, the 'next level' in my career is retirement."

That's what I thought after reading the opening post.

LMAO you're hilarious!

In any case, I like Curtain call's lyrics a lot... they are simple, down-to-earth and just honest. But as I've said, this certainly wouldn't mean 'retirement'...

[yoshino]
