BUDDHA2 theme song 'Pray' composed by Kunio Tago, track to be released in Spring

[ayu-michan]

So looking forward to next year I wonder if her tours from now on will have the old routines again.

[Kouyou]

I'm just excited about the possibility of a new album while I'm here. As far as the song goes, I love pretty much every other song Kunio has composed, especially Days, petal, and SAKURA. I hope it will sound similar to those songs and not like progress or Song for u (her most recent tie-ins).

The story for BUDDHA is very different from what you'd expect from the Tales series (which is more like yay save the world anime-type deals). The manga is very much about Buddha's spiritual journey so I'd expect something kinda like HEAVEN perhaps and not like progress or Song 4 u

Here's the last movie's theme song.



It's very pretty imo.

[AyumiAi]

SINGLE HOPEFULLY <3

[jean-baptiste]

He's composed some of her best (SCAR, Key, Days, Together When) and some of her eh... I have high hopes though.

[Kazeyomi]

At first I didn't get Buddha is THAT Buddha from the manga genius Osamu Tezuka. Omg, I'm so excited!

[yamadashun]

since it's an anime about Buddha, i hope ayu write something very spiritual and soulful and philosophical in the lyrics, something like maybe Forgiveness?

can't wait for the new release!

[Bigtop]

Gosh, I'm quite uncomfortable with this... My thoughts - the movie title and the song title compared to my beliefs make me think I'm in some kind of opposition...

[brener]

i expect a PV like BALLAD or part of Me

[freedreamer]

I really need something really powerful like Together When again >< I miss that style so much

[stivenoto]

Hope something like part of me or dearest

[waterballoon]

finally we have something new!

[ExodusUK]

I hope the song will be just as great as this~

[x-megumi-x]

Really happy to see we will get something new soon, even though Spring is so far way...
Can't wait already! Hoping for an epic rock ballad!

[kimmeh]

I want SCAR pt II.
Not another cheesy ballad, her discography has too many of those!

Yes and yes. This would sweep me off my feet.

[inspire_rmx]

This is amazing news! Finally something original and new from Ayu to look forward to Can't wait!!

As long as it's not a blunder like Love Again, I don't mind.

[truehappiness]

LOVE again was not in any way, shape, or form anything close to a blunder.

[jean-baptiste]

^I also wouldn't describe it as a blunder. It has pretty deep, memorable songs.
