July 1st probably gets a cult following because of the a-nation finale performances it usually gets but it's still a good song in its own right.

I think all of her summer songs are great. I will say though that for me Greatful days of all of them requires a certain mood to listen to. It's also nice that she has two flavors of summer tracks, the more upbeat "fun" songs and the kind of moody ones too. July 1st sort of sits in the middle of that spectrum as well I feel, since the verses and choruses have very different moods but it works.

Don’t miss it.

Flashes of what seems to be a photo shoot for a cd jacket.

New song...?!

Pleaseeee let it be true

truehappiness · #**264** 3rd July 2020, 06:32 AM

Definitely a new shoot, but new music seems unlikely. Teaser on IG/Twitter has no music but could be perfume or something else. Who knows!

Looking back at when Ayu released that "AX_WAT_516" thing that ended up being aeternal, it was put on sites almost at this exact time back in 2018.

hud · #**265** 3rd July 2020, 07:11 AM

it looks like a cover for something. hopefully new song but I doubt it.

Back in 2018, July 1st~2nd the AX_WAT teaser was out!

tokyoxjapanxfan · #**267** 3rd July 2020, 07:20 AM

Part of me thinks it’ll be the third perfume release. Which would be sad lol. But since it’s only available in japan, and the other ones didn’t have such a teaser, part of me thinks it won’t be the perfume lol.

truehappiness · #**268** 3rd July 2020, 07:26 AM

Yeah the fact that they're hyping it up makes it seem like it won't be the perfume, but a VERY tiny chance of it being anything else is holding on imo.

On Twitter/baidu it looks like guesses are mostly perfume or new song.

One thing that is weird is that they just used the same shot for the un/deux so why do a new one for this one? Some think that it's because it's for men and women so it got a new shoot. She mentioned a bit about it on TA during a Q&A.

Spoiler:

avex China also posted about this on their official Weibo. Seems that is making people think it is not perfume.

tokyoxjapanxfan · #**269** 3rd July 2020, 09:34 AM

True—if it’s being promoted in China I’d say there’s less chance for it to be the perfume.

Some fans on Baidu saw that the FLOWER PV hotel room is the same hotel room that she did an interview with CHIHARU and ETSU for the Making the Video of my name's WOMEN on MTV in 2005!

Evolution7/4 · #**272** 3rd July 2020, 12:58 PM

Oh cute!

mi|kshake · #**273** 3rd July 2020, 05:39 PM

Seeing all the July 1st chat makes me think I need to rank her Summer singles. Summer Diary may not be her best but it's cute. I prefer it to Grateful Days.

kaled kalil · #**274** 3rd July 2020, 05:58 PM

July 1st is cute, it's energetic without being too much. My favorite, for sure, is Fairyland. ♥

mi|kshake · #**275** 3rd July 2020, 06:08 PM

Yes, Fairyland is my favourite too!

xLuna&1LOVE · #**276** 3rd July 2020, 06:24 PM

Bruh, July 1st is amazing, instant summer vibes. Prefer it much more than Sunset<Sunrise, or Summer Love. My fav. summer song is a very unoriginal pick: BLUE BIRD.
And can we count INSPIRE as a summer song? I think that one is underrated.

Earth_maiden · #**277** 3rd July 2020, 08:50 PM

People associate songs with their own personal stuff as well. I will always adore Sunrise because it came out when I was going through a really rough time in my life. I made it my wake up song for about a month and would listen to it all the way through every single morning. For other people, it's nothing but a mediocre summer song.

Andrenekoi · #**278** 4th July 2020, 12:29 AM

I don't know what is my favorite Summer track. The least favorite is Greatful Days.

pedronekoi · #**279** 4th July 2020, 01:32 AM

About the teaser she posted, I'm pretty sure is for the third perfume.

I was listening to this time she was a guest on this radio show with Urata Naoya:

And I want to do a few highlights that I never read anywhere before:

- Someone asked where is the country she wants to visit the most and she said Brazil (!). She mentions how amazing must be to go to the other side of the world and experience a complete difference weather and culture. She also mentions how difficult it must be to go from Japan to Brazil (it takes at least 24hours with one transfer). And she alson mentions that Kuu just got back from Brazil and was talking to her about how difficult it was to get back to Japan time.
- She also said that her favorite city to travel is London.
- She didn't knew what a Suica or Pasmo (the japanese public transport card) was or how it worked. And the hosts were quite shocked.

The 2012 me would be sooo hyped up to hear her saying that the place she wanted to travel the most is Brazil (my country). lol

hud · #**280** 4th July 2020, 01:40 AM

↑ omg this is so nice! I remember when she and Kuu went to MS around that time, they showed this pic of Kuu in Rio and Ayu told her she wanted to come here. iirc around that time when she used twitter a lot she answered a fan from here and said again she wanted to visit here. I was so hyped she said that two times in a short period of time, I really thought she would come here to record a summer PV or whatever. lol
