Ayu and Timmy working on new music.
So I guess a new Timmy composition is confirmed for the new album.

Saw those videos on her Instagram. I like seeing this inside look into her creative process with recording. She seems pretty excited about this melody she’s working with. I’m guessing it’s a new ballad.

[xLuna&1LOVE]

oooh oooh yeee YEAAAAAAAA

[Cahz-]

Hit those notes Ayu

[!Lawi!]

I’ve already listened to those snippets more than WORDS

[CeReSu]

That's nice to see/hear but sing something new than wowow yeah yeah Ayu
If it's a ballad (most likely) hope for something nice, not only played on piano, a rockish ballad? (Ok my hopes are high)

[indigochild]

Just give me another BRILLANTE on the new album and I'll be happy.

[Yoake]

Just saw the videos on twitter and I'm more and more excited for this album. Timmy+Ayu=♥!

[Evan Odinson]

I think those were only background vocals, that's what I read from the twitter translation but it sounds nice, and she hits those notes really well, loved it

[Chibi-Chan]

^no, she only said she's in the middle of creating a chorus together with Timmy.

My translator translated it into 'choir' haha.
So now I have no clue what to expect. All Timmy songs have this choir-y element in it, so I thought these where the backvocals too... or like an intro/outro :O

[KittyKathy]

I don't like what I hear, but I'll wait to hear the full song.

The woman is humming. For all we know this could be an interlude..Nema nesto puno da se svidja/ne svidja.

[Chibi-Chan]

^well, コーラス can mean choir or chorus. But コーラス meaning choir I only ever heard in the context of コーラスする, which means singing in a choir, or コーラスグループ, which literally translates to chorus group and basically means a choir. Since it isn't possible to create a choir, one can only sing in one or be part of one or listen to one, I'm pretty sure she meant she's composing a chorus together with Timmy.
She didn't say anything about it being backing vocals or not. Of course it's possible that those are backing vocals, and I honestly hope so. xD

[DonkeyKongRemix]

I thought it was pretty. Also, I'm always really impressed by how good her English has gotten.

[rainbow_smile]

"Chorus" in song credits usually means background vocals, and I think she usually says "Chorus" when she refers to Timmy and Princess in the concert setting? So I think she might've indeed meant background vocals

Wikipedia also translates "backing vocalist" as コーラス (link), and also from the jisho dictionary: https://jisho.org/search/Backing%20vocalist

[mizuki-7]

Yeah that definitely sound like background vocals ! I love how she sounds
