Super happy this single's the real deal!
I just wish it came with more remixes and a PV at least haha.
The cover's super gorgeous and all (I would've loved it if it was the A SUMMER BEST cover)
But I was thinking maybe Ayu took the photo for Colours? And then Avex slapped it on Terminal.
Idk I feel like it sort of runs with the theme she was going for,
with the covers of the free singles for Premium Showcase (it being bright, pastel-color like, etc.)

She's really hot on that cover though.

Everything about "Terminal" is just phenomenal. Armin did a tremendous job for Ayu and her fans. "Terminal" is what I've been waiting for for so long...

Can someone make a wallpaper of that cover? Like 1366 x 768 resolution? lol

[ayumisrael]

Thank you Linza-mo! So beautiful =)

The "Dub Mix" release has been uploaded to Spotify. Too bad it doesn't feature Ayu on the cover. :/

Spoiler:

[//ABEST]

has someone ripped it already? kinda early to be uploaded to Spotify which is FREE

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

I hate spotify. It will never play the track you want it to.

[channy]

4:34???

[orangeakira]

^I'm totally fine with that. I'm just glad the 2 minute version isn't the full thing. Besides did you see what I did with the radio edit and club mix of Terminal? I'm sure me among many others can just make an extended mix.

[ExodusUK]

lol I would totally forgot about that whole naked photo scandal thing! I just assumed Ayu "fell out" with Leslie because he keeps taking awful overrated photos.

[kotora]

Not enough tracks for this single. I am 300% done.

Avex can be creative and just put

Terminal x Connected (From Feel The Love Tour)

in this single to excite us.

I wasn't aware that fact ever existed...In fact I don't remember there's ever been a CREA mix...

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

It never did exist. Lol

[pommy48]

I don't think Ayu is good enough to remix a song xD

Considering she is really limiting her workload now that she relocated to LA, I dont think she'll really invest that much in her music anymore

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

isn't mixing (like what she did for M, still alone, and her other CREA tracks) technically the same as remixing?

In a way, yes. But Ayu was never that musically experienced to begin with. She used to compose her songs and every once in a while arrange them. Composing is just when you come up with the melody you sing to. Arranging is when you decide what instruments to use, and where they go in the song. Didn't she say a long time ago that when she composes her songs she actually just hums the melody? Besides, the last Crea thing she did was Will back in 2005. It's been 9 years, whatever experience she had I'm sure is pretty rusty.

I'm not sure if she plays any instruments, or can read sheet music, but I have a feeling that if you gave her a vocal track and sat her in front of a sound mixing board and told her to make a remix, she really wouldn't know what she was doing.


_____
Actually going back and looking through her stuff on eneabba, I realized that her "Crea" career was pretty short lived. The first thing she did was M which was released December of 2000, and the last thing she did was Will which was released September of 2005. That's less than 5 years. Actually 99% of everything "Crea" did was from 2001-2004. M was the only song she did in 2000, and Will was the last and only song she did in 2005. So if we really wanted to cut it down, we can say her Crea stuff was only really 3 years long.

I have a feeling it was just a "Drizzly" type of one time thing that she's not going to attempt again. The bulk of her self composed/arranged songs were around the I am.../RAINBOW era which is around the time A Best was released. It was the highest point in her career. She was most hands on at that point. It only made sense for her to have a crucial part in music releases around that time.
