ayu's album tracks that should've been singles

[se7entheaven]

I'm listening to ANGEL'S SONG and suddenly think why this song wasn't a single. And I'm thinking as well for other tracks that could made better singles. What do you guys think?

For example: for NEXT LEVEL, what if it was rollin'/Sparkle instead or Rule/Sparkle. And (for <miss>understood) what if it's "Startin'/rainy day" instead of Born to be...?

I think some album tracks make better singles than the released ones, plus the tracks could made better PVs.

[Ayumi27]

Interesting one! I'm fulfilled with Ayu's choices, but some there is always space for minor changes:

-Flower Garden should have been a regular track in I am... AND a single
-JEWEL/1 LOVE as rumoured would have been the best single off Secret
-NEXT LEVEL instead of Rule or Sparkle (any way, I don't love those)
-And even a recut from NL instead of S/S

[Lanz16]

I wish HONEY, WE WISH, Energize rollin', MY ALL, and (d)Lma should be singles.

Nah, a recut single is kinda lame unless it had like..3 b-sides.

I would have liked everywhere nowhere to be a single.

[Polyrhythm]

A Song For XX from A Song for XX. Secret from Secret.

[keikeiaznqueen]

Definitely Jewel/1 LOVE, since Secret obviously lacks singles.

[Crystal_Ageha]

I think these would've been awesome singles:

- A Song for XX / any track already included in a single from the album
- Duty / SCAR
- Real me / WE WISH
- Heartplace / Over
- everywhere nowhere / July 1st
- ANGEL'S SONG / HANABI ~episode II~ OR forgiveness
- my name's WOMEN / any non-ballade off of MY STORY
- GAME / About You
- Criminal / is this LOVE? OR In the Corner OR Pride
- 1 LOVE / JEWEL
- Startin' / kiss o' kill
- GUILTY / Marionette
- identity / any of the upbeat songs

[Aditmi Krisnasaki ~II~]

sparkle/rollin'
rainy day/in the corner
because of you instead of FORGIVENESS

[alternarist]

JEWEL should have been a single. since it was promoted so extensively in 2006.

[AyumiBest]

I think Jewel should of been a single and WE WISH should of been a single too.

yea, i agree with WE WISH as a single.

JEWEL/1 LOVE is so tempting!

i also think that walking proud should've been a single as well.

[Raiu-Ayu]

from A Song for XX
- SIGNAL should have been released rather than For My Dear...
- POWDER SNOW would have been an awesome single

from LOVEppears
(more or less every song on this was single anywho lol)

from Duty
- Key would have been good cuz it so deserves a PV
- teddy bear also cuz it deserves a PV

from I am...
I'm happy with all these singles Guess cuz this was ayu at her peak

from RAINBOW
- WE WISH!!!!! This song is so awesome yet so understated

from Memorial address
Nope, fine with these too

from MY STORY
- Replace would have made a nice Christmas single I think

from (miss)understood
- get rid of Bold & Delicious/Pride and release In The Corner/criminal

from Secret
- JEWEL/1 LOVE (which we all though was coming)
- momentum cuz its so pretty
- kiss o' kill (or at least it could have had a PV)

from GUILTY
- Marionette would have been a sweet single

from NEXT LEVEL
Im pretty ok with these singles too

[aloopy]

[ownsarai]

JEWEL/1 LOVE for sure should have been a single.
I also wish she would have made a really cute PV for HONEY.

[waterballoon]

Real me/Heartplace

HONEY

rainy day/Ladies Night

JEWEL/1 LOVE or JEWEL/momentum

Together When... (as a physical single) or Marionette

[ストロボ・EdGE]

JEWEL would have made a good A-side, it's well known even though it's only an album only track. Maybe cause she sang it at Kouhaku.

Part of me too! It would've just needed a better PV.

[aloopy]

^ what?! how dare you!
i love the part of Me pv.. one of my faves! XD


lol guys just imagine if she released JEWEL as a single.. that single wouldve sold lotssss..

[spanishfan]
