Listening to quite a few Ai tracks today:

Planetarium
Yumekui

Man...I miss this girl!

[zellyx]

I miss her too!!


Anxiously awaiting the day she makes a comeback..

[PoetGirl]

I miss her to tbqh.

[toniayu]

I miss her too much

[Bigtop]

Yeah, where is she??? It has been over a year already, yet no major moves...

[PEARL]

is she gonna come back? been sooooo long

[Minttulatte]

She's still on hiatus? :< I love her ballads. I wish she released something soon~ *_*

[adantatu2]

maybe she is comfortable with her family and she doesn't want to make a comeback yet

[KuuXAyu-fan]

^That. Also maybe she doesn't feel all that motivated to come back since her BEST in 2009 didn't make the 100k mark and her recent singles didn't do good either.

[hayasaki]

Whatever she may be up to recently, i hope she's fine and happy with it. All we can do is to wait (sigh). But damn its been so long. kkkk i found myself listening to her Love Jam/Love Punch albums recently.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

Cut to her and hikki having a drink in a cafe somewhere in Japan, laughing it up

[yoshino]

I miss her too. and she hasn't been updating her twitter anymore.

Did anyone ever watch Tokyo Friends? I started rewatching it recently and it made me sooooo nostalgic for like, 2004-2006 Ai.

[toniayu]

^Yees!!!I was addict to that drama xD That era was her best....

Maybe if she started making epic songs again instead of some off-the-wall experimental avant-garde sh_t.

I love "To me" and "Friends (sabakan ver.) フレンズ -サバカン ver.-
(the chat about the drama made me think of those songs)

[chocopockymaster]

Out of all the Sabakan material, I think 'Kimi to iu hana' is my favorite. Hurricane is a close second.

I ordered the Tokyo Friends boxset with the series/movie/t-shirt/whatever when it came out, and then got my paws on the soundtrack...when I was moving, don't you know I lost the 2nd disc for the series. ;____; I had to order another copy from CDJapan to replace the missing one...but everything's back to normal now~

Oh Ai...I hope you're enjoying motherhood. If not...get your ass into the studio and record a new single! Hell...do that even if you ARE enjoying it. lol

[Princess_Of_Roses]

I can't vouch for the quality of the subtitles because I watch it raw on my DVDs, but it seems like these videos still work.
