Where'd it go?

[ayu-michan]

It's more like there's nothing much happening these days. I bet once she reveals something good up her sleeves, you'll feel your ayuness again XD

[mi|kshake]

I'm waiting for the live CD cover and tracklist - where is it?

Flowers from Ayu to Tohoshinki for their Nissan stadium concerts this weekend

No idea. I went to the concert and was completely happy... I think it's just that there is nothing new or to look forward too.

I think your right.

[Livey~]

I hope this is ayumi related enough XD

Just found the official profile of ayu on LINE PLAY.. I'm still wondering if when she moves is because she's really playing
And I got her hat (which reminds me of the FNS performance of BLUE BIRD and evolution) with Gacha! yay!

[Delicious n Bold]

I also think that her releasing something will spark interest in people on this forum again.
Something much better than love again.

I enjoyed Love again, but it seemed so rehearsed. It was the fasted I had ever put down a new ayumi album before.

[jean-baptiste]

^I agree. I feel like I like the music on LOVE again (more than the music on, maybe, Party queen which is my least favorite full ayu album), but there's just something about it that doesn't rise within me when I listen to it. There isn't a spark. It's like a meal that's great but missing the secret ingredient packed with flavor. I don't even know if I'm wording it sensibly but yeah, it's missing something.

[toLOVE]

LOVE again is like another MY STORY (sorry for bring it up again) for me. Everything's a little too cohesive. My favorite tracks on LOVE again is Wake me up & Ivy & task'n'bass & glasses. I use to LOVE Song for 4, Missing and snowy kiss, but after a while it just get boring.

I actually won't mind another Party Queen or something jazz like (but most people don't like those type of songs :sad

I really hope Ayu release an new album this year.

I adored the jazzy songs on Party Queen!XD Especially the NEXT LOVE, a masterpiece! I really liked Party Queen in general too: it's a little bit unpolished, but maybe it was meant to be so or so they say. Anyway, I think some more work would have made most of the songs perfect. But it has a great concept, amazing lyrics and it was enjoyable in every way. It's unique in its own way, on the contrary of LOVE again, which was just assembled without a real aim.
I would love for Ayu to go more experimental with jazzy and cabaret stuff, cause in my point of view she just has the right voice: her vocals in the NEXT LOVE are sublime!

Hoping for another (miss)understood in terms of a large amount of diversity.

That one has everything. The light and heavy ballad, the electrobopper, the rock 'I'ma try to be hardcore but this is still pop' song, oriental influenced, summer and winter inspired, token cute and that one song experimental song that somehow escaped the cut room (BnD in this case).

[relmy]

I think what MY STORY has over LOVE again is that when you listen to the MS songs alone they work, they're just very laborious as an album.

LOVE again could have been good, it just feels like she listened to the tracks she was sent and... left them as they were? They sounds like they should be Ayu songs, but not with an Ayu spark. Idk if I like that more than Party Queen. I thought PQ was a mess but at least you could tell she enjoyed making it.

You don't have to apologize for bringing it up. You're opinion is just as valued as anyone else's. Just thought I'd say that.

YES. I think this is what I was trying to say. I agree!

Okay

Wasn't there suppose to be more tracks on Party Queen? Like there was a second disc or something (I feel like she have a lot of songs recorded for Party Queen, but they never made it to the final album.)

Hell yes! (m)u is my favourite album!

[NintendoHTF1242]

Why hasn't Ayu made another track that sounds like Connected. Ayu plz.

[TeamAyu2004]

I want an entire album of I am... part 2

[terra]

LMAO my house was a host to family gathering last Sunday and because of my small cousins wanted to play, I took them to my room to play PS3. One of their parents found my room and was surprised on why I put a huge Ayu poster, saying that why should a guy had that kinda of poster that's my room and my rule so...
