I only listened to like half of each preview so as not to spoil myself too much. My immediate impressions were that countdown and Lady Dynamite both sound like they aren't really going anywhere, a bit boring. But Sexy Little Things sounds awesome! I hope that the high quality makes the other two songs a lot better.

I am not really sure what to think about Sexy little things and Lady Dynamite, they sure have easily memorable melodies, Sexy little things isn't really my thing though, so I 'll just wait for the HQ song. count down seems like it's gonna be really good.

Somehow this would be one of those times that I wish Ayu wasn't doing so many genres, but concentrate on what she does the best~ however I am not gonna judge her until I hear the whole album. The vocals in count down almost sound like her usual live self ^_^ Even though I pretty much agree with the previous comments, even though I seem to prefer the two previews over SLT they do seem to be going nowhere somehow, though they didn't exactly bore me.

count down's appeal is in its lyrics, I think. Definitely one to remember by heart like teddy bear / Memorial address.

I just remembered that a PV in London had random passersby. I think it's Microphone, haha.

These songs seem to go nowhere imo because the beginnings and endings are not present... haha.

I remember thinking that about the LQ "identity" preview we got from NL.. it sounded like it went nowhere but then when I heard it in HQ it became one of my favorite songs and I even changed my username to it So yeah, I think you're right.

LOL, maybe so, it doesn't matter though, she had songs like that before and I either loved them or liked them, but rarely listen to them (ie LOVE:Refrain, Close to you).

I decide not to hear the rest of the previews after microphone. lol .

Reading the last 11 pages, and find out that 95% of AHSers love Slt. I hope I won't end up getting disappointed since I've high anticipation on Slt since looking at the pictures in ViVi.

PS: It's kinda like a nightmare to see this thread jumping from page 2 to page 12 in just less than 9 hrs... Take so much time to read...

already listened to 3 of the songs previews..
i don't know, i love everything..
Sexy little things is really unexpected!
wish such extreme PV, sorry donno how to describe better, but the song is so much fun, and sounds like the American's old cartoon's movie hahaha lol
but it's really something different from Ayu!

i love love count down a lot! a very nice rock-ish ballad, it does sound a like what DAI have.. a kind of like acoustic ballad? love it!

Lady Dynamite is also unexpected! i thought that it would be like Sparkle, by seeing the PV..
buttt.. it has Rock 'n' Roll feeling through the song..
omg.. most of the new songs have the Rock 'n' Roll feeling! I love it!

Another designer update:


The people on the lip shaped sofa are wearing Charlie Le Mindu lip hairpieces from his S/S 2010 Hair collection. Not sure where the outfits are from though. (Charlie Le Mindu is also a famous English designer...)

From : http://lh4.ggpht.com/_b78eCcIrApg/Sr...lieLeMindu.jpg

Also modeled backwards by Lady GaGa in her Bad Romance video.


From GaGa Daily's Fashion page.

It's one of those "love/hate" things. I think they're masterfully done, haha. It's always interesting to see what can be done creatively with something like hair.

I'm going to go against the grain here and say I like the previews of count down and Lady Dynamite better than Sexy Little Things.

count down sounds powerful and emotional to me, even through the really bad quality. Lady Dynamite sounds fun and the drums were a nice surprise.

I can't wait for this album. Come out already!!!!

Another note: The hair is all human hair. None of it is synthetic, it seems.

I like coming on here in the morning when AHS is working, I get some nice things New pics of PVs and the previews of 3 other songs. I liked the sound of count down immediately, Lady Dynamite I started to like towards the end and Sexy little things I did like. I'm looking forward to hearing them in HQ.
