Ayu and her team choices...

At least I can keep my money and spend it on something worthy.

They're hoarding the unreleased a-nation performances for another cash-in opportunity in the future probably

Eh, I want that blossom performance, so I'll still buy the OS press. It'll only be around $30 on YA anyway. But I'll buy the new a-nation goods I want first.

Wow at that DVD.. what a waste.
I've now come to the conclusion this whole release is lame. Should have just had a summer single instead.

As was mentioned before, this release should have been a summer single featuring "You & Me" as the title track and "Happening Here" as the b-side. It could have included the video and making of "You &Me" and a collection of all of her a-nation performances on the DVD as well as the "Greatful days" performance at RAINBOW HOUSE as a bonus.

It's just like kuu's summer remix album DVD less few old pvs on it. It's like they use the exact same strategy for both lol.

It's kind of weird that they went with those video clips over others and some concert footage over a-nation footage as well.

Missed opportunity.

Why do they have video clips for the last few...? And she hasn't performed a more up to date version of 17 through 20??? Does anyone know if she sounded good live in the stadium tour? Cause in the few clips I saw of oldschool ayu lives she sounded HORRIBLE! and she looked awkward and boring...

The Stadium tour has her best vocals and doesn't have PECO and Princess which is a good thing. The Monochrome performance is like a minute long though as it's part of a medley..weird

^ I agree. That would've made a great single content.
The better promotion for A SUMMER BEST (especially the uploads on YouTube) made me really look forward to this release, but I thought they'd include not-before-seen a-nation lives for the DVD. I mean, they did with some, but why the video clips that are on regular albums?

They should have just released the 2 new songs as a single, this compilation just seems excessive. As for the covers, it is basically a wax model of ayu.

Well, isnt ANY Best album pointless for fans?
I really think this is just for people that dont buy ALL her albums.
But want her popular hits.

While I do think that the target audience for best albums may be people who aren't fans, I wouldn't necessarily say that all best albums are pointless for fans if they contain enough exclusive material such as new songs, different mixes of songs previously released, performances, or music videos that aren't available on the original albums or DVDs to make the purchase worthwhile. While I can only speak for myself regarding this release, had the DVD tracklist contained all exclusive content, I would have been willing to purchase it despite the CDs only containing two songs that aren't on other physical releases even though I have all of her albums and compilation albums besides "A BEST".

So disappointed with the DVD track list! I really wanted theme of a-nation '03 from ummm...A NATION!

Wasn't the CDL live lip-synced too?
