There IS a difference. They get counted differently for a reason


I'm think she's most likely calling it a mini album because she wants to have some grand concept behind it. Let's see.

There's only 3 new tracks, You & Me was already released on A SUMMER BEST.

it doesn't have over 4 new tracks though
it has 3 new tracks and some remixes

No no, I was referring to TA who said you could have a single with 8 tracks, or a mini album with 8, and they'd be the same~

and yeah pff barely three tracks. This will only have two new tracks for me...I already heard Song for you ;P

[mizuki-7]

A a single... the music industry fought with them about it being an album or a single because it had so many tracks.

Exactly and not only A also boys & girls

and id there a reason why you quoted me twice??

If that's the case why isn't this a single? The reason she probably hasn't released a single is because the risk of her single number 1 breaking. This is typical Avex all over. I don't know, a glitch?

[TeamAyu2004]

^ maybe she just doesnt feel like having a single? plus it's not like she will lose the record if she hits number 2... she keeps it till someone can beat her record...

All these records and everything is something the fans create... avex and ayumi get nothing out of it.

Im saying if they were the same... if ayumi was calling this a single instead of a mini... they would be the same thing...

any I have to edit myself..

A had four tracks and was labeled a single.

Ohh

Yeah IDK why people are *****ing, it's a new Ayu release with some new music..what we've all been asking for

[AyuHamasaki01]

Please tell me the tracklist is a joke.
Only 3 new songs?

These songs better be damn epic... But, let's not jump to conclusions yet, let's wait patiently for the song previews.

@TA: You don't have to edit. They WOULD be the same thing.

Except one would be stupid, and one wouldn't lol

Yes, I know A had four tracks. If anything, it was more of an EP than a single or a mini-album.


idk whatever. Doesn't matter. Whats up with the releases every month thing.

While I tend to not complain about her releases, I definitely feel that the track list for this "mini album" is a mess. It only has 3 original tracks (which I would classify as a single IMO), there are more remixes than anything else (her remixes are nice but I could care less about them personally), and I'm fine with the instrumentals although I think the "You & Me" instrumental could have been tacked onto "A SUMMER BEST" since they didn't include the making clip on the physical DVD. Also, why couldn't making footage be included on the DVD for "Melody"? I always liked that she included all of her videos and making footage on the DVD so why has she started not including them with this release and her previous release? Although I'm excited about the new material, I'm disappointed with the setup for this release.

[mizuki-7]

Ayu didn't said in her interview that she considered L like a last effort in term of single ? so I don't think she will release another one ...

Appears had 12 tracks on it so they can definitely release something this long with no problem as a single. This mini is more like Appears than anything else.
"Appears" ('99 Greeting Mix)
"Appears" (Scud Filter Mix)
"Appears" (Dub's Eurotech Remix)
"Whatever" (Ferry 'System F' Corsten dub mix)
"Appears" (JP's SoundFactory Mix)
"Appears" (HAL's Mix)
"Immature" (D-Z Dual Lucifer Mix)
"Whatever" (Ferry 'System F'Corsten vocal extended mix)
"Appears" (Keith Litman's Mix of Truth)
"Immature" (JT Original CM Version)
"Appears" ('99 Greeting Mix Instrumental)
"Immature" (JT Original CM Version Instrumental)

I will laugh my head off if Missing and Melody end up being on a full album announced later.

Damn, that's a pretty solid looking release.

Im sooo confused... lol...

Im hoping we get at least a single out of this...
But this is a lot like her singles back in the day... I would prefer her to call this a single... but terminology is really irrelevant...
its just new music!!

I will kill you with a stake don't even give her ideas

[truehappiness]

Starting with the mini album, there will be releases every month on the 8th.

[jbrat2219]

ayu is officially the biggest troll in the J-pop music scene.

The fact that missing is missing is a PV is setting off alarm bells in my head. Maybe they'll do a Last Angel/Sparkle and the full album will have the pV

[TeamAyu2004]

Yes... I dont mind minis but I hate when people put the same stuff that was on the mini and then put it on an album!

Also! emi... going back to A single... I think thats where the term maxi single came from, yes? because avex didnt want to call it a mini or ep?
