Sexy Little Things?!?
Thats a surprise for a new song title... from Ayu! O_O

[adantatu2]

Thats true, ayu was first than gaga
I love her weird style, she is so original

[SURREAL__RAINBOW]

this thread is gone essays lol (looking at some pages ago)

[Mirrorcle World ～longing future～]

Sexy little things, want to hear this song!

Whatever Ayu does is always classy, the difference between Ayu and many western artists is that she can separate her shows from life.

I love how she provides some erotic accents to her performances like in Decision or Identity but then goes back to being just herself as we all know her. It's the stage, the performance.

In case of GaGa, well I don't know any of her performances but I know she wears strange outfits in her normal life. I also remember some headlines of local newspapers like "Men want to see my vagina" etc, not cool at al for me.

Ayu is high class show maker, GaGa seems to be lost between her stage and private life, that's why it doesn't matter how Ayu behaves n her performances and PVs (same goes to Koda Kumi) since it's just for the sake of entertainment (and some of us are old.. eee.... mature enough to love those small kinki accents XD).

Not true at all, Paparazzi photos show her in normal clothes, the crazyness is a role she plays and people actually believe her!

well yes, paparazzi shots are of course different, I meant that it goes beyond the stage / PV itself, eg till the red carpet, interviews, music award shows etc. she usually keeps her scene image even if she's not on stage.

Of course, it's her image, if she doesn't keep it whenever she is "Gaga" then it doesn't work.

You are rigt

[SKYia]

My general conclusion was that sometimes other artist want us to believe that what they do on stage is real and the fact that it usually concerns sex is a different story, but for Ayu stage is stage, she can be geisha, she can be cute, she can be perversed and I don't mind it because it doesn't ruin my opinion about her

In the same way I expect something really naughty in her new PVs and I can only smile when people here say that she's becoming perversed / kinki / etc just because she used the word 'sexy' in song name or wears latex suit or moves her butt agains Shuya's hips in Identity performance XD

[AyUta]

A british flair? Interesting.

[truehappiness]

Take that description with a grain of salt... it's not one that's exactly too reliable, haha.

[gallowsCalibrator]

Hehe British flair! It seems that Ayu is doing very well with this London influence~ Her outfits are amazing and adorable (telephone booth ) and the songs sound awesome! (Hm...seems like PVs and singles/albums in different countries mostly turn out awesome!!! *coughMirrorcle Worldcough* But that's just me )

[Minttulatte]

^I lolled at the Mirrorcle World PV somehow and I still don't know why. Maybe it's because she looks funny in that phone booth to me.

But anyways. I don't remember what I said before about her new song but I wouldn't mind something really nasty sexy R&Bish song from Ayu. She's an adult. She can sing about sex as well because I have a image in my head tof Ayu that isn't so angelic as some Ayu fans seem to think and I really like the idea. But she would do it differently though, I wouldn't want her to become Koda Kumi (this is said only because I don't want to make you think I want Ayu to become like Kuu is/or was). Just one nasty song would be alright and then she could keep doing the stuff she usually does or something. :p

I don't understand why it's so horrible for some fans though. Sexy Ayu is better than that sickening cute Ayu which I actually hate from the bottom of my heart. I want more Sexy Ayu. x)

I agree, though I don't hate angelical Ayu at all, but I think that being sexy could be a step forward to her image. It's the kind of surprise we are waiting for, maybe XD And maybe some fans are afraid that a nasty song would be the beginning of Ayu becoming Britney Spears or Beyoncé or [insert a western pop artist here]. But I don't think so. Ayu's artistic view (regarding to music, videos, styling...) is very original and everything she does is so classy and distinctive that I don't think I'll be disappointed with a sexy PV, because it will be new but it will still be Ayu XD

[Minttulatte]

I agree with BanaCherry about originality of artists. It's so true.

You're right. I mean, even Sparkle was something else than a perverted song what many other artists are making. It's good that Ayu is still a artist that can make classy songs on these times when everything's supposed to be sexy. I admire Ayu for not taking the same direction (yet). But I'm okay with it if she wants to try some sexy stuff herself.

No. It's alright for anyone to find inspiration from anyone, regardless of "rank order" in the music industry.

People have to learn from each other in order to improve. Just because you're more 'senior' than someone, it doesn't mean you can't draw ideas from that person; that would be considered as being narrow minded or something. Ayu can learn from perfume, superfly or anyone else who debuted later than her. Most importantly, when it comes to the end product, Ayu makes it her own, and that's all that matters.

I'm not being biased here but GaGa is a person of great talent. It would be great if Ayu can draw inspiration from her and reinvent it into some even better
