But i am still satisfied with what has been offered to me. At least it is better than nothing. I believe that everyone is entitled to their own opinions so I just post my comments regardless of good or bad. After that, i forget about it. But some people just like to kick a big fuss about every single thing that doesnt go their way.

Trust me i am not like that..

[SolarAngel]

Yeah hopefully it will last me from changi to NUS and back lol... Looking forward to listening to all her singles on my MP3.

I wouldn't get my hopes up, it will be good if this sells as much as GUILTY. The reviews of people from Japan on HMV were quite negative which means they didn't like the fact this is getting released a year and a half after A BEST 2. The only thing I am worried is how this could affect Ayu's future sales. On the other hand this could sell more than A BEST 2, but somehow I don't have a good feeling ^^

Well, most of the time, a lot of haters post bad reviews on the shop sites like Amazon and HMV, basically pouncing on the fact that Ayu did something sort of "disappointing" and want to take advantage of that. Same thing happened when A BEST 2 came out, I think..

maybe it's just that, I mean even her last.fm page turns into an anti-fan-page from time to time xD oh well i am hoping this release will do good.

That's terrible. Some people really need to straighten their hearts out. And it could be a sweeping thing to say but this 'hate' seem to be centered more on female artistes, not just eastern but western too. I don't think such negative reviews would be given for eg. B'z's best treasure or whatever it's called. No matter, i stand by the 1 million.

I'd like it if it were called "A COLLECTION" instead.

That title would be really awesome later on I guess when she releases a huge bundle with all her album and PVs. I think that title will be used in the future.

She's going to have used like, every A -insert noun that collects things here- ever. LOL.

A CLIPS
A BEST
A MUSEUM
A COMPLETE
A BALLADS

.. what else can she use? A ULTIMATE?

She should stop before she runs out of hot stuff.

Umm, maybe A [some names for fast song] ? She hasn't release that. Then after that maybe she will release her second mini-album.

I just think "A COMPLETE" sounds more of a FINAL collection, you know? Because this really isn't the COMPLETE material. A COLLECTION fits this compilation more so and A COMPLETE should have been left for future use I believe.

[luna7996]

Well....cd japan does say'title subject to change'.Maybe they will change it to something more....fitting?

This is true.

Like, I imagined A COMPLETE to be a compilation of either every single ever [in like special packaging like ZARD's single box] or every album + compilations..

However, it'd end up being like 200-300USD total, so.. yeah. And those NEVER sell well. Though Ayu could make the exception. But... those are usually sold only when people's careers are over.

[truehappiness]

Well, 2ch is basically full of those people. For every actual Ayu fan on that board, there's like 50 anti-Ayu people. It's sad really, but eh. You've got to learn to live with that sort of thing since you can't really do anything about it.

[SolarAngel]

^Haha fair enough. With all the b-sides, it would be a glut of songs. I'm looking forward to the DVD more than anything as well.

[Max_ZZZ]

Some people may have their wish,
Mirrorcle World might have just been released so it could have been put on this compilation instead of her next album =S
it was her 10th anniversary single, and this is her 10th anniversary collection
maybe

[amorphose]

I'm not upset that they didn't include the double/triple a-side songs. It would've been nice to have is this LOVE?, fated, ect... But it's nothing to throw a fit over.

I'm glad they didn't include b-sides though. That would've been stupid. Sure, songs like alterna, Will, and decision are amazing. But I don't want them along side with theme of a-nation '03, teens, and Secret on a single compilation album. It would just be... weird.

[SolarAngel]

^Lol! Yeah i'd sweatdrop if teens or love since 1999 were added in. Hope the OS version is released like a week after the japanese release...

[truehappiness]

Well, #1 on CDJapan really doesn't count for all that much, tbh.

A #1 on Amazon.jp [this one ESPECIALLY] or Jbook's realtime ranking [only when it's actually out] counts for a whole lot more..
