I've been loving Farmer for years now (9 or 10?) and I'm annoyed by how much she had been mentioned on this thread... Damn!

Mylene doesn't scream, she mostly whispers... It's french music for god's sake! Still, people bringing her over and over again in here is both annoying and off topic

As I always say Ayumi may be a queen, but Mylene is a goddess. I don't think that Lonely Lisa type of song is a good fit for Ayu, it's all about Farmer's iconic high notes, this song could work only with her voice.

My all-time favorite from Mylène Farmer is and will remains the song Point de Suture.
I just find it beautiful, like a ballad level 99, with a voice and words that make me shiver everytime I hear it. The sound of the music is just hypnotizing.

Check out the live of this song :

Tremendously amazing, yet very simple.

the next LOVE was an awesome song. I would totally go crazy over another tune with a similar style. (Note: this doesn't mean I want the SAME song but something SIMILAR to it. XD )

Honestly though, I am not putting much thought into how this mini album will turn out.

It bums me out that so many people seem to dislike XOXO. It's such a smooth listen. I agree that a Lonely Lisa type RedOne track would be cool though.

^ I don't get it either. It could definitely use more bass, but it's hardly the offensively awful track a lot of people make it out to be.

Girls just wanna have fun, have fun, dance forever.
It's a harmless track. It's as threatening and awful as a puppy licking your face.

I bet the people out there would like XOXO a lot more if even this scary PV doesn't exist! haha

I liked both works of RedOne for ayu...
XOXO is fun and Movin' on without you is awesome!

I would prefere something Lelio~Feel the love~You & Me alike - a proper danceable track ^_^

You are absolutely right about that PV to XOXO.

I actually liked that song a lot...and then I watched the PV. I usually try not to let those things sway my opinions but WOW. That PV ruined the song for me.

I am not even exaggerating, I cannot listen to that song without seeing Ayu bobbing her ass up and down on top of a limp body on the floor. I've tried to forget it buuuut... It doesn't work. XD

I like xoxo, actually haha. The video on the other hand... Doesn't work for me. The videos are the reason Colours failed to impress me. Merry-go-round was the best video (or the most effective?) for me.

XOXO is a wonderful song, one of my favs from COLOURS, but yeah, the video is pretty atrocious.

I'm hoping the new mini will be another chance for Ayu to do something different. We just got A ONE which was kind of a throw back to classical Ayu sound, so I'm thinking the mini will be something different.

I wasn't a fan of XOXO even before the video... I love pre-Born This Way Lady Gaga, I love the stuff RedOne was putting together with Porcelain Black, and I ADORED Ayu's cover of Movin' On Without You. XOXO was a flat, dull disappointment by comparison - fun song, sure, but shallower than a kiddy pool. I want Ayu's stuff with RedOne to sound more like the rest of that list, you know? Grittier, heartfelt, more honest, more deliberate.

And regardless of who Ayu works with, that's what I like to hear from her - the honest, multifaceted stuff with music and lyrics that are custom-tailored to fit one another. That's always been her best work, and that continues to be the case.

I have a feeling that the demo was a lot like what we got in the actual track. I'd have liked her to take it in a different direction like Beautiful Day though rather than do the Bold & Delicious thing if that is what happened.
