30 Day Song Challenge ～Ayu ver.～

[Sky High]

Day 13 - And then... - wow such a great song.

[Chibi-Chan]

Day 14: A song you’d love to be played at your wedding
I somehow never dreamed of getting married and don't think I will, I also don't think any Ayu songs are really fitting for a wedding. Personally I don't like weddings and always feel they are about a very publicly approved version of "showing" love and not so much about that one song from a Japanese pop singer with the high pitched voice you like but everyone else would find embarrassing. I guess weddings are just not for me. lol
But if this is about a song telling someone you want to spend the rest of your life with this person, I think I choose Dearest.

[~angel*ayumi~]

Spoiler:

Day 1 - RAINBOW - because it´s just awesome, but monochrome is very near behind^^

Day 2 - HANABI ~episode II~ - This is a tough one because she has many good songs with numbers, but I just love both HANABI songs <3

Day 3 - fairyland - also a though one, because she has so many great summer songs, but I just love fairyland <3

Day 4 - how beautiful you are - That is hard because I have no song that reminds me of someone I want to forget so I choose hbya because much of us were maybe bullied in school, because we weren´t beautiful, cool, or just wasn´t what ppl whould call normal standard.

Day 5 - Bold & Delicious - You can´t play this song quietly xD

Day 6 - Humming 7/4 - Also a very hard one because she has so many songs I want to dance xD

Day 7 - Sunrise ~LOVE is all~ - I often hear it in the bus

Day 8 - Party Queen - As Teppei said, i also can´t think of any other song that is about drugs/alcohol, unless you call love a drug, then she has plenty xD

Day 9 - + - sooo hard, there are so many songs that make me happy.

Day 10 - teddy bear - She has a bunch of sad songs but this is the first that comes to my mind, even before memorial address

Day 11 - A Song for XX - I also go with ASfXX as it´s my absolute fave Ayu song, I will never get tierd of it xD Best is A Ballads Version.

Day 12 - immature - Not so much choice but still hard xD I am fan since Duty^^

Day 13 - A Song for XX - Easy as this my all time fave song from her^^

Day 14 - Dearest - I actually had this song played at my wedding in the church as an orgel version ^^

[xLuna&1LOVE]

Day 14 - Will

Interpretation of the song along the lines of this: Road (of love?) is always with insecurity and doubts. However, for you I will do anything within my power to make it happen. Whatever darkness I will face in the future, I feel more secure, proud and safe when I am with my significant other.

Maybe I am totally misunderstanding the meaning of this song... however, I love the melody and to me it feels light and hopeful. Great for a newlywed couple. I don't think I will actually play it on my wedding. Though, I would love to hum it or play it softly in the background when putting on my dress.

[Toniayu123]

Day 14: i don’t think I would play any. But if I had to, I’ll go with startin’. When everyone is drunk enough. Love song would be a nice choice too, but I ain’t showing no tears in front of my family lol

I also can't really see myself getting married but if I had to pick something, my first instinct says You are the only one. The sweet and epic sound is very appropriate, the lyrics are pretty perfect for the occasion (if a little cheesy for my taste), and as a bonus, the song includes a pair of lines I'm absolutely obsessed with: If you are feeling sad / I’ll become the world’s best clown. I tend to love it when Ayu brings in the motif of becoming something different for your beloved (like in Moments and Anything for You), and this one really strikes me: the idea of "I will make a fool out of myself to make you feel better" is really sweet to me, and this metaphor feels really impactful, inspired, and unexpected coming from Ayu.

I really like your take on this. It made me a little teary-eyed.

Sadly this song were only performed live once at the Arena Tour 2012 but it was so much fun watching this performance. After that I added the original from Kishidan to my mp3 Player . Would be awesome to have a full version with only Ayu singing this song.

I had never seen this performance (barely remembered it existed) until this reminded me to go check it out, and you're so right, the performance is amazingly fun! So I think I will also go with:

I have no desire to have a wedding, but if I did...maybe it would be Voyage, or Love Song, or Evolution.

[Teppei-chan]

Spoiler:

Day 01: A song you like with a colour in the title
RAINBOW
RAINBOW is such a soft and calm Song ans I love that about

Day 02: A song you like with a number in the title
1 Love
I choose this one because I really got into Ayu a few month before this song and Secret got release. Still Love it but I choose it more for the nostalgia behind it

Day 03: A song that reminds you of summertime
NEXT LEVEL
This is a song I often listen to when the sun is out. I don't know but it always gives me a good vibe and makes me wanna go outside and relax in the sun

Day 04: A song that reminds you of someone you’d rather forget
crossroad
Well... I cried my heart out over a boy listening to this song. This guy had the guts to ignore me after a while and years later mde me hope tht this time it would work out.... only to get told via text message that he still h something for his stupid girl.
It sucks because crossroad is one of my most favourite Ayu songs but sometimes it reminds me of this guy. If only crossroad game out a little bit later

Day 05: A song that needs to be played loud
Terminal
I think this one needs no further explanation and speaks for itself

Day 06: A song that makes you want to dance[
Trauma
This on is hard. I'm Not someone who dances alot but If I feel Like Dancing I choose whatever I Like at that moment. But I'm going to choose Trauma as I Always feel the urge to do the little dance moves when I listen to it

Day 07: A song for riding the train
Born to Be
Since I have my own car I don't Ride the train as much as I used to but I Always found myself enjoying listening to Born to Be alot. It's easy to forget your sorrows and just enjoy the ride with this song

Day 08: A song about drugs or alcohol
Party Queen
The First one that came to mind. And isn't this the only one she has that are about alcohol/drugs?

Day 09: A song that makes you happy
Greatful days
It's such a cheerful feel-good song for me that makes it easy to enjoy the moment and only think about Happy things. The eurobeat remix of glitter from ayu-ro mix 4 ís a close second

Day 10: A song that makes you sad
reminds me
The lyrics for this song are so great and everytime I read them I get a little sad because they well, reminds me, of sad times from the past

Day 11: A song you never get tired of
A Song for XX
One of my all time favourite and one of the only songs that I listen to everytime it comes up[

Day 12: A song from your pre Ayu fan days
Ladies Night
The first time I heard about Ayumi was reading an articel from a german Manga magazine, it was around 2002/03 and I decided that "now I'm a fan of her". I only knew 1 one Song ( connected) at that time and nowadays woudn't call it being a fan. I got to know more of Ayu and her music in 2006 around th Release of Blue Bird. So that gives me a lot of stuff to choose from, which is hard XD Ladies Night was one of the first Songs that came to my mind

Day 13: A song you like from the 90s
kanariya "Jonathan Peters' Vocal Club Mix"
Ever since I first watched the the PV I'm in Love with this Version of kanariya, it's Not the full remix that Í like because it's waaaay to long imo but the part that ís also being used in the PV is perfection. As for the original Hidden track version one LOVEppears: I also love this one and that it gives the song a complete other and unique feeling.[/QUOTE]

Day 14: A song you’d love to be played at your wedding
Voyage
If I'm every going to marry someone I guess Voyage would be a song that I'd make sure is being played. Maybe even during the ceremony, maybe when I walking down the aisle XD. Always thought that Voyage would be a fitting Song for a wedding.

Day 15: A song you like that’s a cover
One Night Carnival
Sadly this song were only performed live once at the Arena Tour 2012 but it was so much fun watching this performance. After that I added the original from Kishidan to my mp3 Player . Would be awesome to have a full version with only Ayu singing this song.
If I had to name a song that can be found in a single/ Album I'd say Many Classic Moments. Like the sound of that one

[xLuna&1LOVE]

Day 15 - Haru Yo Koi
Such a shame we never had an album version, but I am glad there exist a video on YouTube. Ayu's version is so dreamy!

[Toniayu123]

Day 15: SEVEN DAYS WAR. I just love it, her voice was so great at that time.

[Aderianu]

Day 15: Haru yo koi is obvious choice, but I also want to mention an amazing performance of Masquerade with Kyoharu at ayuready

[Sky High]

Day 14 - Dearest (Acoustic Version) - adore this version of song especially final part.

Day 15 - Haru Yo Koi - beautiful cover with nice instrumental.

[voltron]

Day 15: A song you like that’s a cover
Overall I'm joining the Haru Yo, Koi bandwagon because it's obviously all sorts of amazing. If we're talking about something that had a studio recording/release, then I'll go with...teens!
