[Scanlation] S Cawaii May 2009

[truehappiness]

Thank you so much! You're a godsend, seriously!

We get insight into NEXT LEVEL, yay! Oh, Misa, I spot a typo! "Denfensive" looks like it should be defensive in the first scan that starts the interview off.

Woah, it looks like Ayu dislikes people who say things like "Oh, I don't think so / Oh, I don't like this" and don't add anything to do the discussion too! Haha, how awesome.

OK fixed! Thanks!

haha, everybody talks about Kazuyoshi Shimomura.
Actually I like the PV of Sparkle a lot. It was the first (and only) PV of Ayu that made me laugh in a good way.
The cover of Sunrise/Sunset was a complete failure (to me), but makeup artists and stylists are more responsible for that, aren't they? I'm not sure.

Where do you guys think is a good place (web page) to check PV directors and photographers of CD covers? I saw a link in AHS to a good page regarding PV directors, but I can't find it again.

Thank you Misa! You're the best!!!!

I love how ayu is describing the album! Her NEXT LEVEL is very interesting. Too bad not many enjoyed this work, although it's my favorite album.

Lol I always laugh why ppl hate Kazu so much. I'm not a fan of his work, but I certainly don't let it affect my love for her music.

Yes! In fact, the songs that he has directed are some of Ayu's most epic songs in terms of the atmosphere of the song. MW is just a song that is unique and representative. GREEN is a good throwback to the oriental days and I love the instruments. Sparkle is, needless to say, much welcomed in today's electro era...and also a step up from Ayu's own form of electro back in early 2000s

He has nothing to do with how good the songs are though....
