... srsly? I wonder if avex has an account here and they're taking our jokes as serious wishes

[attractive nausea]

This is so cooooool, i mean having all those rockish/angry/upbeat tracks as classical versions (except for the GIFT, but i like this song anyway), i agree that she already released LOVE CLASSICS earlier this year, but it was mostly older songs. And i guess Winter Diary is a super calm song then, if she includes it in the album?

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

I just can't believe that they didn't include Anything for you. ugh.

[Surreal17]

Yeah, Anything for You and Story would have been great, especially since her vocals are so good there.
I guess no re-recored vocals.

[KarenPang]

Most probably I will buy Winter diary ~A7 Classical~ since I bought the previous 3 classical albums

And I agree that for once this release contains classical rearrangements of recent songs & not the usual SEASONS , Dearest & etc

I'm intrigued to hear how the selected songs in Winter diary ~A7 Classical~ will sound like when given the classical route treatment

Would have been nice to hear how Story would sound like in a classical setting :x

[freedreamer]

now im hoping Winter diary doesnt sound like Walk pt 3/Anything for you pt 2. ><
I mean i LOVE Walk but lets keep it that way.

and what on earth is A7?

[Ayumi Romania]

Very disapointed... I was waiting for a new single...

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

Where is her team getting this info that we want these releases? All I tweet about is remixes and ayu trance. lol this is frustrating.

[tenshi no hane]

Hey, at least they're changing the arrangments. Anyhow, I could care less about format by now. All I care about is: we get a new song, yay!

I guess be careful for what you type, it might come back to bite us

She doesn't care for that spot and she hasn't for a long time. Its probably more of her way to give a gift to fans

[Uknow!]

We has a new song and more classical remixes. But people is always complaining and complaining. You all have the new song, if you don't like the remixes then don't listen. I was waiting a lot for WARNING in classical and now Sorrows and Last Minute. I'm happy with this release. But not matter what Ayu releases or did, she is doing bad.

[Chris85]

Seriously?! This is a highly unnecessary cash milking release. I was really hoping for new single with Music Station appearance, but Avex clearly needs its money.

[Aderianu]

even if it calls Winter diary, that's is glad that they chose new songs and not another compilation of you-can-find-it-on-any-other-remix-album hits

WARNING is so powerful, I'm afraid classical arrangement may ruin it's charm.
If only ayu resing those songs... but that's not gonna happend

+++++

Well, I'm a sucker for classical songs so I'm pretty stoked for this (although LOVE CLASSICS was pretty meh).

Ayu fans are a tough bunch to please -_-

[se7entheaven]

I'd rather she be plain lazy and release Winter Diary as digital single. Over and done. I guess she needs money to pay her shopping bills in Las Vegas

[Aderianu]

A ONE (1) + sixxxxxx (6) = A7 Classical (7)

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

There is potential for WARNING, but a lot of songs seem out of place for this style of music. ayu-mi-x or ayu trance would have been so much better. I'm so devastated. le sigh.
