yeah. that was I meant. not the studio album position..

yeah otsuka will be releasing her 2nd best album called LOVE is BEST on Nov 11th & mind you , everyone's all barking over in the otsuka thread in AHS over this seemingly useless release

NL is always in charts for a 23rd week?

**ayumisrael** · #4 27th August 2009, 12:51 PM

We will know for sure on Tuesday/Wednesday ^^

zyoeru · #5 27th August 2009, 09:16 PM

As long as it's in the top 20 that's great.

maybe avex will decide for A BALLADS 2 to came out before the year ends then she will make the top 10..XDD

PLEASE NO AVEX. They tend to do what we never want so maybe this will happen (

seems like A BALLADS 2 is getting mixed reactions O____O
a new batch of NEXT LEVEL USB's at half the price and more memory would be good idea..but then we would have to see who will purchase it..

Ayumiko · #11 28th August 2009, 03:59 AM

I want A BALLADS 2 too with studio version of B'z itsuka no merry christmas and yuming's haru yo koi.

Omg I would be kicking myself if that were to happen. *is an owner of encore press of USB*

I think Ayu needs to focus on her musical direction more than another compilation.

Btw, A BEST 2 -BLACK- = A BALLADS 2... Just saying...

waterballoon · #14 29th August 2009, 04:30 AM

^ Well there were songs like Because of You, is this LOVE? and GAME...

They are not silent/slow songs but they are definitely ballads (rock ballads). XD

RAINBOW wasn't that quite as well (A Song for xx too), I love those songs

TITANIC · #16 29th August 2009, 05:17 AM

^ excatly. no pure BALLAD feeling in A BEST II -black-

jbrat2219 · #17 29th August 2009, 05:27 AM

It's close enough for me personally. If it weren't for the release of RAINBOW and the reworked A Song for XX, A BALLADS would have been a total bore to me -_-; A BEST 2 -BLACK- song arrangements may have varied, but the dark/emotional undertone of all of the songs was the best thing about it. Much better than a compilation of a bunch of slow songs *yawn*. But to each his own

zyoeru · #18 29th August 2009, 01:09 PM

I always think of A BALLADS carrying over the feel of the entire of RAINBOW album...haha. They're both "watery" albums to me. Don't get me wrong, I love them, but they remind me of water...haha.
And imo BLACK =/= BALLADS. A ballad album to me would be something that has an unplugged feeling~. But a compilation would be stupid...considering we've had like... A BEST 2 and A COMPLETE so close to each other.

waterballoon · #19 29th August 2009, 06:29 PM

^ Omg yes... alan's Megumi no Ame too... I love these.

Well A BEST 2 BLACK is an interesting compilation, so I'll leave it as a "mystery", hahaha.

Crystal_Ageha · #20 30th August 2009, 12:10 AM

BLACK was meant to be a ballade compilation, but not in the way that A BALLADES was. Like, BLACK put together a wide range of what were technically all ballades, though a few of them were "rock" ballades and such. A BALLADS was almost like a remix album of what many would consider "true" ballades, since only a few of the tracks were in their original forms.
