Sorry, I just hate it when people buy into that rumor. We had a big discussion on it a while ago.

I really do hope she releases a winter single. That would be GREAT. I'd love a new album though, and it'd be so weird not getting a new album for Christmas since MY STORY, but I really want a winter ballad; like No way to say but more xmas-y. Kinda like White Light.

[Raiu-Ayu]

I think that GREEN is from her new album like JEWEL and 1 LOVE were from Secret. I hope it is cuz ayu has released an album every year and I hope she doesn't stop now.

The only way that there is going to be a single now is if its announced like next week for release in mid to late November/ early December then an album on the 1/1/09. Personally I'm hoping for an album. I don;t get why everyone thinks it'll be rushed. Ayu has released nothing new since April so she's had more than enough time to work on album material

[Melrose]

Eeeh.

The new album has had zero singles for promotion. I sincerely doubt that they'll -ever- release an album without singles (unless MW is going to be on it). Even Secret had two singles.

Edit: Okay forget about what I said earlier lol. Silly rody >_>

I'd really like a winter single, a nice ballad would be nice

[pommy48]

i think at least one~ didn't ayu say she was working on a song?

She need some rest, maybe her creativity will return.

i agree that she shouldn't release a new album.
BUT why is everyone calling GUILTY a rushedfailure????
i don't think it was rushed or that it's a failure album, it's awesome and it ROCKS!!

[aura~]

Mmmm i think... we will have a new single this nov/dec... I don't now how... maybe 3 songs.. maybe only 1 a-side and GREEN as b-side... who knows... (but i'm alsmost sure GREEN won't be the principal track of any single...) But I hope she won't release any album at least until march or april... with the official end of the 10th anniversary...... She will have had time to prepare a lot of new songs produce it well... quietly... and have enought promotion for it... I think MW is no going to be in her next album... Half of MW is in GUILTY... and who MW is in the single and in AC... too much mirror... XDD sooo she needs at least 1 or 2 singles before the new album...

i hope so...


bye!

If she's gonna follow the normal pattern, I think it would be a waste to release a new single, unless maybe it's digital.

Ew. Gross. No. I hope she doesn't. I'll take a new single from her...with Green being the b-side (I wasn't feel'n Green from wut I heard from the preview). It's so not worthy of being a a-side.

i hope she doesn't release a new album in jan. it would be waaay too rushed, she needs to rest!!!!

I think October schedule for releases is already out. Besides, I'm sure Avex would have already announced the release of her new single if it was to be released this month. =/ It possibility maybe released in December in the 2009 Oricon year. Their main focus right now is to promote AC.

@Venus: Hahaha I am listening to TABOO when I saw your sig and I was like WTF? and then I realized it was a gif thingie..haha. XD Love that dancing scene. But live it's kinda lame.

@ren: Because GUILTY is already a short album (14 tracks), and then it has 5 single tracks, 4 whopping interludes and only 5 'really' new songs. Also, it was #2 which doesn't help it's status. And it's a very angsty album, which a lot of people don't like. Etc. Though I like a lot of songs from GUILTY, as an album for me it fails too. =/ The only thing about the album itself that I really like is how Marionette has an interlude and prelude, and the cover..

Darn I need a life.

[Catzi]

If she's going to release an album at the end of the year like she usually does, then I think we can count on a single coming out close to the end of the year to promote it.

I just finished watching the pv not to long ago. The more I watch the pv the more I fall in luff with the song. I was listening to on my way to class as well. Sorta just been me and Taboo all day. I haven seen her lives because I really don't care to see her lives but I was going to see this one but since you said it kinda suck.....I might wait a lil longer to watch it.

Oh darlin' she's not the only one. Hikki only gave out 5 freak'n new songs on HS too. lol Majority of the album was already heard before it was released. Talk about WTF?! @_@ It was a great album but erm, yea more new songs next time please.

[AyUta]

I strongly believe there will be a new single this year

I don't think so, I think A COMPLETE counts as the album for the year, along with GUILTY, officially. I'm thinking spring or summer for a new original album. I wouldn't want her to rush things (even though I would buy it if she came out with an album tomorrow xD; )

[GRACE]

imo, if GUILTY taught us anything, holiday week releases with the two weeks of sales isn't a good idea if Ayu wants to get #1 anymore. Plus, I wouldn't mind a spring album instead of a winter one. When does she ever do spring albums that aren't bests?

[KarenPang]

does this mean if there wouldn't be another new single this year it will be the 1st time she will only put out 1 single within a year ?

[jbrat2219]

^ when you put it that way it sounds scary D:

But I guess that's the reality of what's going on right now... I hope for a new one before the year is out! December 25th Christmas single...? lol

The only reason why Ayu didn't get #1 is because she had tough competition. =/ Her releasing on holidays and such can be a good thing for her but she mustn't have competitors like Kobukuro releasing near her. =/ And her releasing around spring is somewhat a bad idea because:

1. Because JE usually have strong releases around that time
2. Majority of her big competition releases around that time.

[Jwiz]

A 3A winter singles sounds awesome to me. However im not in favour of the idea of releasing an album without any singles prior to it as it can be very risky, moreover previous album GUILTY didnt fare well in terms of sales, and thus i rather prefer ayu to release a new album at a much later time.

[darc_aqua]

I really want a new single with GREEN on it

[Meat Pao]

I don't want an album this year / early next year >_> Seriously? A COMPLETE was just released in September and another album so quickly ._. (Although I know A COMPLETE has no relevance to a new album but D
