[News] New mini album out August 5th, 2015 II

[Uknow!]

I don't care about the title if the lyrics are like Love Song for example, but this time I really love the title. "Shape of love" is really beautiful... Is possible that's my perception because I'm not native speaker, but "Shape of love" makes me feel that the song is more deep and interesting than the typical "romantic love song"

It could be wrong but it looks like they just say "5 up beat songs" in general, unless if anyone here is more fluent in Japanese and can say it could mean "most" or "some".

It says the mini is planned to have five uplifting songs that are meant to boost your mood. ("boost your mood" is a weird translation? but it's like...get your energy up, put you in high spirits, etc)

So if they reneg and its full of ballads I will be unbelievably annoyed

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

^I doubt that. There will BE NO HANABIS ON THIS ALBUM!

[Isicio]

^after AONE we need this!

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

^I agree. I want this album to be stuck in my head (in a good, catchy way), for months and months!

Doesn't it say "uplifting" new songs? Sounds like BALLADS!

[DonkeyKongRemix]

Hmmm I have so few thoughts about this. I just hope her voice sounds good and not too squeaky...

Not really. Progress, Step by step, Born To Be..., Fly high, UNITE!, AUDIENCE, July 1st, INSPIRE, Replace, Bold & Delicious, Beautiful Day, Beautiful Fighters, BLUE BIRD, glitter, MY ALL, Red Line, and Thank U could all be described as uplifting, if you ask me.

Maybe even more, like Sunrise, Energise, etc...

Step By Step
Shape of Love <--- Thanks god for not titled in Prisoner of Love , jk.


That is interesting. Maybe we will see all songs titled in three words in this album, but too early to judge.

[AyumiAi]

Really rough translation >.> Sorry I tried my best

「Only with/by means of the person who'm you love
When nothing may be alright
A thing like that can be overcome
There is (or they have) that magic "ka" 」

I don't exactly know what she means by カ

I could also be WAYYY off sorry!!! If anyone is better than me please go ahead and correct!

-Shape of Love-

Only when you say 'I love you' (or maybe, "All you have to say is 'I love you')
(and) whatever it is, will be alright
We will be able to make it through anything
We/it have/has that magic power.

(I didn't even use google translate!! LOL I'm too excited...I hope I'm pretty close)

[AyumiAi]

^ there we go lol
overall i think yours is right/probably is right XD

[maikaru]

With just those words, "I love you,"
Everything is alright.
We can get through anything.
Those words have that kind of power.

[Aderianu]

thanks for translation, guys =)

maybe that's redone song. in my mind i hear something like You & Me for such lyrics

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

I think those lyrics sound really sweet...and I know I'd love them even more if they were sung over a hot, fresh, upbeat track!

[Yoake]

I really like the title Shape of love I find it more interesting than her other titles that includes the word love

[Corvina]

Idk, but I think Shape of Love is a really ayuish title.
Sounds totally like her. So I wouldn't be surprised.
(those lyrics sound pretty generic though)
But I'd be actually surprised, if there would only be upbeat songs on the mini, lol.

[Chibi-Chan]

When I hear Shape of Love I think of Anna Tsuchiya.

[xLuna&1LOVE]

I think Shape of Love is a gorgeous title and the little text you guys translated is very uplifting (there you go). Startin' to enjoy Step by step even more so I am thrilled about this new mini album. To be honest I really do not give a fuck if she included one or two ballads, as long as the sound is good and a has a lovely melody. Sunrise was not too bad at its time.
