It's been like this for a long time though. It's kind of a given for any specific topic, in this case it's Ayu. People really need to realize that there is always going to be 2 differing opinions on songs/photo's/PVs etc. Not everyone is going to like something, and not everyone is going to dislike something.

When it reaches a point where the people who like a song/photo/PV are obsessing over it and the people who dislike a song/photo/PV are raging about how horrible it is, it starts to get out of control and annoying. Some people don't know how to stay behind the line of obsessing or raging about something, and think just because they like/hate a song/photo/PV, everyone else has to like/hate it too.

If only everyone could be like "I don't particularly like this song/photo/PV" or "I really am liking this song/photo/PV!" and move on without getting caught up in everyone's opinions, AHS would be so way less heated.

I usually like songs a lot more when they're released as a single. I was absolutely in love with You were.../BALLAD and thought it was the most perfect winter ballad single ever, and now I never listen to those songs anymore, I think they're boring I find myself listening to her older winter ballads instead.

However, I'm pretty sure blossom will stay in my favorite-song list for a very long time. It's such a perfect song. I miiight grow tired of MOON (eventhough I still love it now!) but blossom is forever!

Like pretty much everything in life, it comes down to one thing : the middle path. People have a right to be disappointed with her, people have a right to love everything she does, neither side should take it too far and either side should accept the opinion of others.

And that's basically it XD

AHS would be a peaceful place if all members were forced to agree on this when joining.

[Max_ZZZ]

well LOL anyways
so what dates would be "safe" to release the 49th on? if it's a month all the releases should already be announced?
does anyone know whos releasing and whatnot

[freedreamer]

Im suspecting she might do a July-Sep-Nov...then just in time for the CDL...if there IS a change in plans...(is there?)

[DogboyShugo]

Im hoping Crossing turns out good. Moon, Blossom, they were okay....But they're not songs I'd keep from her. I still don't like Days...

[truehappiness]

Ah, I love all the different titles.

crossing
crossword
crossroads
crisscross
cross-shaped

Okay... scratch the last two...

[AyuGAME]

^LOL...that's funny

[nanakopy87]

i highly doubt if it will release in august because i think they left not enough time to prepare for it.unless they plan to release it on30th,but still,i think 80% it will release in september

[ayufan-]

^I think that to, MAYBE every two months, so MOON/blossom in july, crossroad/.... in september and 50th single in december. That looks the most logical for me

[Aditmi Krisnasaki ~II~]

^ i think it's impossible LOL since the 50th single anniversary concert will be held at Oct 2nd, which is exactly ayu's birthday~

so it must be around september~

[roanmy]

I think it'll be July-September-November, IF competition allows it. Because then she could still easily perform all three at the final dates at Yoyogi, as well as have 50th single Countdown live! =D

[roanmy]

And if it's coming in August, it should've been announced now, shouldn't it?

maybe they are waiting for the first week of sales of MOON / blossom to be over so they can start promoting x)

[cdy2010]

It seems to me that AVEX sort of rushed the 50th single anyway. With the right hype and the right promotion, Moon/Blossom, Crossroad and the 50th single could've reached atleast 100k the first week, cause this is a big milestone.

But it seems that AVEX isn't interested in high sales or anything, but more to just rush out her 50th song instead of making it memorable. You don't just reach the 50th single everyday.

Oh well. !

Pretty sad, no? Its not like her 50th single crept up on her. I would have thought this was planned in advance but everything seems so last minute and I can't understand why. I used to think it was Avex rushing but now I'm inclined to think that Ayumi is fine with it being this way. So, they are both to blame, lol.
Look at Koda Kumi's 12 singles project. Maybe not alot of sales, but an amazing amount of hype and promotion and all Avex!

[Zeke.]

There's nothing I hate more than "rushed" ayu releases. You can always tell in the finished product...

[Zeke.]

Secret was totally rushed and you can tell. I mean I like it... but the full production isn't there in a lot of the songs. Don't feel 100% as they could have been.
