^This might be a top 10 yearly hit for them. I just hope Kobu's power isn't fading fast. They have been quite for a while.

well personally to me from the singles that I have heard from Kobukuro , I must say that they have some great melodies & songs going on in their music

their music's folk rock but it's not those boring type of music which will put you to sleep but rather some of their songs are very uplifting & soaring no.s & of course their ballads are great as well

anyway I think once the 2nd collbo with ayaka drops , it's interesting to see how well the song fare since it has been too long since Kobukuro dropped another song

EDIT --

ANYWAY , back to ayaka , she covered Tsuyoku Naritai (Ken Hirai's song only included as a B-side in his "Love Love Love" single released back in 1998 at her first concert in Nihon Budokan last year . The concert was broadcasted some months ago through TV, but unfortunately that perfomance was cut .

But , the live performance of it was included in the DVD of STTS

ayaka - Tsuyoku Naritai (Ken Hirai cover - LIVE Nihon Budokan 2007.12.20)

Video: MPEG4 Video 716x480 (53:30) 29.97fps

Finally had time to listen to STTS: it's a very good album! Not sure if I like it better than FM though.

hmm personally I say that the non singles songs on STTS are not as strong as the non singles songs on FM

but at least the singles on STTS which made the cut are really good

Amai Yume · #**267** 3rd July 2008, 11:44 AM

^ I wish Meiro would replace Ai wo Utaou or even one of the weaker album tracks...
However Sing to the Sky is soooo much stronger than First Message

soooo apparently there is a PV for one of my fav songs off Sing to the Sky!!!!
Kon'ya mo Hoshi ni Dakarete!!!!
I can't wait to see it

eh

Ai wo Utaou's an A side single by right , ayaka should not separate it since Te wo Tsunagou / Ai wo Utaou's a double A side

I don't like it when you break up a double A side & not putting it in an album provided if you have a valid reason for doing so

I rather 1 of the non singles songs be replaced with Meiro , it's just too bad it's not included in STTS

like for YUI , My Generation / Understand was her 10th single but only My Generation made the cut in I LOVED YESTERDAY bcos if Understand was to be included , it will sound like the odd 1 out (according to my younger sister)

Amai Yume · #**269** 3rd July 2008, 12:28 PM

Yeah, I just wish Meiro was the A-side of that single, thus leaving it a spot on the album

BTW, apparently Anata to will be released on September 24...long time away...

yeah bcos the style of Meiro is very different from her usual B side works

pity that was cut from STTS

I still wish that Peace loving people was included in FM bcos she loves performing that during live performances without fail

TITANIC · #**271** 3rd July 2008, 12:45 PM

wuuhuuu..... New Single.. I hope it can stay in top 10 yearly even outsell thelma...

again #4 for today

Amai Yume · #**272** 3rd July 2008, 12:46 PM

good job ayaka!
I hope she can pull into 3 before the week is over...

TITANIC · #**273** 3rd July 2008, 12:49 PM

^ i want at least she'll leave GReeeeN behind her for this week

Go ayaka!!
Had she released her album this week, she totally would have gotten number 1

Beauty4123 · #**276** 3rd July 2008, 03:26 PM

there's a PV out on JPS for "Konya mo Hoshi ni Dakarete... " but if you hated utada's kiss & cry/beautiful world PVs...you'll hate this one too.

lol

is that so Lisa ?

then again ayaka's PVs are nothing fantastic to begin with

that's why when comes to STTS , I don't mind to get the one which comes with the DVD containing concert footage of her Budokan performance

I can skip the DVD containing the PVs anytime

Beauty4123 · #**278** 3rd July 2008, 04:02 PM

yea, since the song's used for an anime movie, it's an anime PV.

oh ok

then I don't mind to give that a pass

apple-pi · #**280** 3rd July 2008, 05:06 PM

Wow. I'm the only one who loves Ai wo Utaou to death? I think that song is amazing, one of my favorites in the album. (no one understands me!!

lol)

I'm kinda sad ayaka dropped to 4th... I wanted both her and GReeeeN to stay in the top3... none of the people I want to be 1st is 1st right now

But I guess it's too much to ask for lol. At least sales seem to be looking good.

Kon'ya mo Hoshi ni Dakarete got a PV? That's cool. Anime PVs aren't ALWAYS bad... (Ayu's Connected was cool lol) I wonder what anime it is.

And yeah, it would be awesome if Anata to could outsell Soba ni Iru ne... it just has to sell around 100k (I think?) more than WINDING ROAD... come on ayaka [and Kobukuro], you know you can do it!
