[Official Message] New Single 16 December 2009 - You were.../BALLAD - Page 10

keikeiaznqueen · #**181** 22nd October 2009, 09:50 AM

Not counting Together When... in 2007, Ayu hasn't released over 2 physical singles in a year since 2005.

This is exciting.

And 3 ballads! Looking forward to this release.

That's true. I've forgotten all about that bracelet. So maybe it's more a reference to the bracelet than to the red thread of fate itself. Or the bracelet is a reference to the red thread of fate and the song is a reference to the bracelet.

complicated much?

I don't think it (red line) will be a rock song. I'm guessing 3 ballads here. The title doesn't strike me as rock. Maybe Rock Ballad?

PoetGirl · #**183** 22nd October 2009, 09:57 AM

i hope for 3 ballads. i dont like rock that much. why do people who want rock from ayu
dont go just listen to rock bands lol.

im thinking so hard now what to choose, and i think ill buy all the version or only cd one -.- hopefully ill be more sure when covers will be out.

About the covers: I'm guessing topless Ayu caught up in a web of red strings adorned with red ribons.

What about Together When... And wasn't HEAVEN released in September or so? And what about Days?

Together When wasn't a physical release.. and Days came with GREEN which, in my opinion, isn't a winter-song at all.

And I am SO EXCITED FOR THIS NEW SINGLE!!! OMG!!
Gonna buy Version A and C (and hope A's cover is better than B's.. otherwise I'm gonna beg CDJapan to change the in my order after the covers come out xD haha)

BTW did people also complain like this when she released SECRET? (since Kuu has the same album title). People it's just a NAME, there are hardly any song titles that are truly original. I bet that 99% of all song titles were used before by some artist.. (unless you think of something as wacky as RED LINE ~for TA~ lol) I think BALLAD sounds epic, and it's about the music anyway

i think the red lien means the 'red thread' that ayu wears.
She once said that it connects her with the TA members

sad part is, it'll probably be me who starts it

jiarongisme · #**195** 22nd October 2009, 10:41 AM

YAYAYAYAY!!!!!! I'M EXCITED FOR THIS! I think I'm getting the CD Only version for sure. I might get both CD+DVD versions too if the bonus stuff is awesome.

Well, I'd prefer the red version no matter who has done it before. I really liked the Mirrorcle World Cover, so I'd like to have something similar. Snow as in Sunrise/Sunset sea & flowers background? I think snow is hard to do as background, or generally on photos.

@Keiichi
For me Days is much more Winter Song than HEAVEN. But everybody's got different opinions.

AyaCere · #**197** 22nd October 2009, 10:48 AM

This is so awesome!!
I'm so glad, I love those titles!

ComatoseBunnySnatcher · #**198** 22nd October 2009, 10:51 AM

Ayu please no O3O pose PLEASE!

I hope the songs are varied, since we already got:

Sunrise- upbeat
Sunset- ballad
You were...- ballad
and BALLAD

tinka69 · #**199** 22nd October 2009, 10:52 AM

you were sounds interesting! I can't wait for the previews!

U-GO-BOY · #**200** 22nd October 2009, 10:53 AM

it would be cool if the present is actually the red bracelet that Ayu wears
