New singles crossroad 9/22 and 「L」 9/29 [VIII]

[ayumisrael]

L is described on her official website as her triple a-side single since "&".
So it has 3 a-sides.
The last of them will probably get a PV on the album.

[AyuGAME]

^oooww..i thought it's 2A side...because just 2 songs got a PV...
it's just weird if A side song, doesn't get a PV...
but if the official website stated that it's 3A side...then..it is 3A side...

[jbrat2219]

She probably just doesn't have time for a third PV.

[Picaflor 7/4]

^maybe this is a hint that she should stop making double/triple a-sides? she couldn't do the sparkle pv in time for the single so it was put on the album, she couldn't do the blossom pv in time for the single, so it was put onto the next single, and now there might be a chance that the 3rd a-side won't get a pv because there isn't enough time and they might make one in time for the album? if she never has time to do any of this stuff, maybe she should go back to single a-side singles? or make the other a-side a b-side. I really hope this doesn't become a habit. Cause this is the third time in 2 albums that she's done this.

When did she ever say there wasn't time?

And dont forget H, it didn't have ANY PVs and it was a 3A single.

[Mirrorcle Monster]

Hope she updates soon with the tracklist, or at least song descriptions...

me too!! The Tu-ka cm for Hanabi was amazing, if they would have used that concept for the PV, that would have been one of the most amazing PVs in my opinion xD (just without the cell phone!)


I'm wondering when we'll get a tracklist for L~
I really hope they won't wait till crossroad is released!!

It doesn't need a PV to be considered an a-side, people.

Seriously, I figured this weekend would have some major new info released. But hey, it's not quite over yet!

so are you basically saying she doesn't film the pvs til later cause she doesn't feel like it? sparkle, blossom, and this new L ballad. the first two didn't get a pv til later, and this 3rd song won't get one not because she doesn't have time, but just because she does whatever she felt like doing?

Idk though, A didn't have any pvs either, and never ever and unite didn't get real pvs, just little snips. I thought she was just finally flowing out of the "not giving single songs pvs" concept.

I don see why she should just start releasing single A sides like crossroad. There could be any reason she doesn't film those pvs. And its not a consisten problem. S/S, Yw.../B, Days/GREEN, all had their pvs.
I don't see a problem with promoting two A-sides and not giving one a pv until later. And in blossoms case its just on the next single. And it has to be of convenience for jj also I'm assuming

Anyhow the 3A single is a much different situation as its not like she released a bunch of those. And. Two had no pvs at all
Either way. Unless ayu states exact reasons why she's not giving the third song a pv no one can say for sure why it doesn't have one

I honestly just don't see the deal. I would take a 3A like L over an a/b like crossroad anyday sooo
Do u feel deprived or something? Four new pvs in two weeks just isn't enough?

If she couldn't go all out with the 50th single and the 3 A-Sides, she shoulda just done two. I'm sick of half-ass releases.

I said the same thing when Rule/Sparkle and Moon/Blossom came out and most replies were to be just happy with the release, don't complain too much etc whatever. I really think its time contraints cause Ayumi seems pretty last minute with everything. We know she can sell with 0 promotion but think of how much more she would sell if she promoted more.
Atleast crossroad is getting some live performances...

@all.night.raver
I know! Its not like these releases snuck up on her.

Because ayu is totally not putting enough effort into this project?? Because although she took the time to record three songs, one not having a pv makes the single half-assed? Cuz pvs just so dire?
Its too bad ayu can't hear this. Apparently someone needs to tell her to work a lot harder and try to put some heart into this.

We don't even know much about this release anyway. But we did know that it was a triple-A and it only had two PVs from the time the singles were announced so I don't know why everyone is so outraged now. I'm not sure about Sparkle, but she didn't do the PV for blossom so that JJ could be in it. When MOON/blossom was announced, it stated a PV for blossom. So she obviously had plans for the PV but they most likely changed when he said he'd be on board. Besides, at least from the preview, this song doesn't really sound PV worthy anyway. Just sounds like a nice chill song to probably close off the single.

In a way, I think that's a good thing. I hope the song doesn't even make it on the album. Makes way for more new songs! So we can have MOON, blossom, crossroad and two of the three songs on L for a total of 5 single tracks and hopefully a ton of new album tracks <3

we could wind up getting 3 PV's for the "L" single anyway if they ever update and tell us the full tracklist . -is still bitter at avex for making us wait this long-

Yeah that's true! Anything is possible because nothing has been announced yet. They have to announce it soon though... Seriously it comes out NEXT WEEK!

[Andrenekoi]

Someone heard about something new, I don't know, called marketing?

"blossom" PV has JaeJoong, helping to boost crossroad sales. Maybe her 3 A-Side will have a PV in the album to help its sales, just like Sparkle on NEXT LEVEL. It's just a strategy.

[Yumsushi]

Im really tired of waiting for new info.

Its pretty obvious re:blossom, but how do you know that Sparkle helped NL's sales?
