New single before my birthday, LOL~

Anyway, i really like the title You were... and BALLAD itself, it looks like this is another great ballad~

And about Red Line, it remind me of Japanese phrase "Red Thread" where the meaning is a bit similar with fate or destiny, maybe?

My first initial thought was that this had to be fake, because the titles sound so weird.... But, it's real..? Hmmm... I actually like the title You were... It's not very typical, I don't think, and it's very Ayu. Red Line is kinda weird, but I like that title the best. (I was mad about the TA part at first because it makes it sound cheesy and awkward, but really...dedicating the song to her fanclub? Very sweet! ^.^) And I'm excited for the orchestra version.

So after having all this sink in...................
OMG I'M EXCITED!!

Ah, I think fans of every artist are able to do so xD I remember the alan fans freaking out when they saw that she would release a single called BALLAD(especially when there was a pretty big rumor saying it's title is Natsu no Umi before)

I was thinking to myself when there would be a new single.


Um... You Were... sounds like a pretty odd title. Not one of my favourite.
Same with BALLAD. HOpefully that is just a filler.

next thing you know, POP SONG and ROCK SONG is going to be her next single

and wtf is with the ~for TA~ ~for her~ ~love is ALL~ stuff at the end of all her titles. (dislike)

otherwise, i am a huge ballad fan so i hope it turns out well. Although i must say, i dont see her ballads being the best seller

Actually, there are probably several examples of artists that have released music for free. For example, Radiohead made their entire album free and gave people the option of paying for it only if they want to.

But that's a totally seperate thing - I know Avex wouldn't let her release the song for free probably even if she wanted to. But since people around here seem to be classifying this song as a gift for fans, I just wanted to point out that usually you wouldn't have to pay for a gift.

That aside, I'm thinking that this will be the only upbeat song on the single - maybe rockish sounding.

Well we should minor the examples for at least japanese artist are the most popular japanese artists of the past and present =P

I mean most would release songs/fan songs not for free of course, unless if they are on their independent label or a label that would allow it or as a plan for something later. But yeah it's not free as it normally wouldn't. xD

Exciting~ I'm hoping for another breathtaking ballad(s) from Ayu. But the title, Ballad, really is uninspired.
Regarding letting fans have music for free, its something very difficult to do when you're tied to a big music label. The first thing Trent Reznor did when he got out of his contract was put his new album out for free download.

Actually, there IS a pretty small change that Red Line is from CREA. A few months ago she mentioned that amongst the songs they could choose from for the album was a CREA composition. They probably didn't think it was good enough, and maybe save it for B-side because that's unimportant?

I hate the title for BALLAD, mostly because alan JUST did it. @_@ I also hate the title for RED LINE ~for TA~, mostly because of the "~for TA~" part which makes me feel excluded because even though I'm a big fan, I can't join her fanclub. :@ But anyways, that's really nothing compared to how happy I am she's releasing something new. Yaaaaaaay <3 Ayu releasing something near Christmas always makes me REALLY happy.

Ok, how many songs does she has already dedicated to fans? AUDIENCE, UNITE!, Sunrise ~LOVE is ALL~ and now RED LINE ~for TA~?

Get over it, everybody knows already you love them.

This whole thing is getting too cheesy.
