Definitely

Jlo in early 2000s, and Paris Hilton in mid 2000s. With hints of Britney here and there lol.

Also her chin is retouched...

After I've showed this to a friend, he told me about Colours.
The arm and her neck was retouched hard.
The original Photo is from Alvin's Album on facebook the other is the actual Cover.



I know, the size is not 100% accurate, but you can actually see, what I'm talking about...

I can't exactly tell but holy fuck that's a great-looking digest. I wish ayu's concert (or anything) could look as visually enticing

To people who are always paranoid about Ayu retiring: https://mdpr.jp/news/detail/1975173

Max basically just replied to a tweet theorizing about Ayu's retirement with "impossible".

I was listening to Ayu's cover of Haru yo, Koi today, and gosh - the way she expresses emotion vocally is so convincing. It's so bittersweet, like all her best ballads. I wish she had released a studio version way back when.

Yes, I'm forever wishing she would do a studio recording of this song, preferably for an A Ballads 2! I'm wowed every time I watch her performance.

Speaking of WOW, that Sparke remix - it works in a way I never thought possible!

I saw a clip of this performance and it honestly made me wish she would do an actual cover song. you're so right, the original packs so much emotion but ayu puts even more layers of it

On the topic of remixes, can anyone recommend some MUST LISTEN remixes? I do not have the time to go through a million remix albums and remixes found on singles so I'll just listen to what you guys like lol
