[RUMOR] 1 LOVE / JEWEL release date has been announced!

[truehappiness]

A 'supposed' attendee at the Music Station recording[?] for 10/13 had this to say:
来週のMステにあゆが出る!!!!

なんと! 10月13日のMステにあゆが急遽出演決定!!!

発表楽曲は『JEWEL』!

11月30日リリース予定の楽曲です!

両A面で『1LOVE/JEWEL』でDVD付も同時発売!!!

(miss)understoodのLIVE DVDも11月1日にリリースされます！

買いましょう！

Running this through excite would show..

Very much. Haste decision of appearance to M Ste on October 13.

The announcement music is 'JEWEL'.

It is music of the release schedule on November 30.

The DVD assistant also puts it on the market by '1LOVE/JEWEL' in both A respect
simultaneously.

(miss)LIVE DVD of understood is released on November 1.

Let's buy it.

The new single might be a double a-side and the release date could be:
NOVEMBER 30th. AGAIN. (or maybe the 29th? :/)

This might spell out a late album.. or SOMETHING.. I don't know..

This still is NOT confirmed, so... don't take this as truth yet.
I don't even think it's true. I guess some sort of 'hope' is better than none, hm?

Here is an excerpt from the MUSIC STATION website made the day after 'silver_romance5' guy's post:

10/7 「テレビ初披露！」な土曜日

おぉぉぉ！！
もう、一週間切ってるじゃぁないっすか…（笑）。

すでにボクを含めスタッフの中には緊張のあまり、情緒不安定になっている人まで出現しています （汗）。

とにもかくにも、２０周年の集大成となる次回のSP。
出演アーティストもほぼ固まり、本番を待つのみです！！

そんな中、今回はテレビ初披露の新曲を唄われる方も多い…そこでこのブログでは”どんな曲なのか？”という ご紹介を明日から少しずつしていこうと思っています。

第一回はMr.Children『しるし』からはじめます。
お楽しみに♪

I wonder if it talks of the SP already being recorded..

[immel]

That's awesome, such stealth action .

Well, we'll know in 5 days, if avex doesn't release more information before that .

[suzaku]

They always release stuff on Wednesday

[truehappiness]

Yes, the Wednesday before that is the 29th, so I sort of wonder if this is true or not..

:/

I hope this person isn't one of those individuals who post rumors everywhere ><

[immel]

^It could very much be :/.

Well, at least it's something, and in the draught I guess people will be happy and hopeful!

[Mad_Cactuar]

Looongggg way to go but pretty quick, eh? hope it's true.

[immel]

If this is the date then I suspec they'll run the usual full promotion campaign like for every single this year... I think a "surprise" single, announced like 1 or 2 weeks before release would maybe be better, people would be surprised and lots of attention brought to it.

[truehappiness]

I suspect that a late January album will come.. or worse yet, a 1/1/07 release.. ><

This pattern is way too.. blaah.

[immel]

Let us hope for the best.

Umm...

what's the best anyway?

:/

[elepop]

I hope it's true!

[truehappiness]

The best would be that this is true and we will get it sometime this year.

[chocopockymaster]

I can deal with an 11/29 release as long as we don't see another release until early spring...

[truehappiness]

I hope Mika's new NANA single doesn't do too well [it only had 120k first week last year.. x.x]

[Mad_Cactuar]

A 1/1 release would be great, at least she'll have two weeks to get to #1. I don't want Ayu not get #1, it'll be a disaster.

[Dustie]

That's a pretty interesting situation, I don't think she'd be ready to release an album early next year if this single comes at the end of november. I wouldn't expect an album in this case earlier than in March/April...

[truehappiness]

Well, look at No way to say and Bold & Delicious. Both came VERY close to the albums.

NWTS vs Memorial address
November 6, 2003 vs. December 17, 2003

Bold and Delicious vs. (miss)understood
November 30, 2005 vs. December 27, 2005 / January 1, 2006

[immel]

How much did NWTS sell? B&D sold really freakin' bad, not only because of the near album release though.

[truehappiness]

NWTS was Ayu's last 'high' selling single pre-MY STORY era.

It sold 370k.

No way to say
Single Number: 31st Single
Release Date: November 6, 2003
Studio Album: Memorial address
Oricon top 200 position: #1
RIAJ Certification: Platinum
Copies Sold: 371,171

Compared to:
Moments
Single Number: 32nd Single
Release Date: March 31, 2004
Studio Album: MY STORY
Oricon top 200 position: #1
RIAJ Certification: Platinum
Copies Sold: 303,923

[immel]

Then it probably doesn't have very much to do with the near-album-release that B&D sold so bad... people simply didn't like the style I guess.

I wonder if we'll have news of both and album and a single, or only an album.

If the album will be late they might do a single+album release again, making it 4 singles released with the album.

[truehappiness]

No. I think that by the time that Bold and Delicious was released, everyone knew of the album that was coming, and people weren't exactly into buying it.

For NWTS, I think the album's announcement came a bit after No way to say came out.. instead of being announced BEFORE No way to say came out..
