yep, released on feb 8, but so far only mobile download sites have been confirmed.

[truehappiness]

The how beautiful you are thing was in an information tidal wave from the main site, lol. They added like 4-5 new news stories so it may have gotten lost in the amazingness.

[Kanzaki]

Just saying, if people are planning to buy from yesasia, order NOW. They'll most likely jack up the prices later.

There was, but they didn't have the limited edition, yellow casing.

[Ranma Matsuri]

So question... when does HMV usually stock their new items? I don't see any Party Queen links at all on their site...

It makes it obvious which track is the interlude though, which is nice. I wonder how the tradition started way back when, lol.

Hmm. But when was Grando Espada track released? I'm not really into that game so I don't know when it was release. But a little searching on this game info it was released in year 2006? (miss)understood was released late 2005 wasnt it?

[truehappiness]

Granado Espada started in mid-2005 in Korea, a few months before (miss)understood.

i'm so happy the new album is officially confirmed! although i didn't expect "Party Queen" to be the title, lol. but i don't mind. the tracklist is pretty cool, and 4 new PVs is great, too. i can't wait for covers.

this was released in 2009.

ffuuu sjfklasdjfklds good point. i ****ing ADORE those songs.


ETA: i'm pretty sure the 4 PV thing is only temporary, yeah?

[jkm444]

I am wondering why Avex didn't decide to release the pvs in blu-ray quality??
Beside that I am excited for this album!!

[rakeru]

I wish we'd see SOME promotion for How beautiful you are... unless there is some and I've missed it?

yeah...i thought they were going to release a blu-ray version of this.I'm sure they'll do the same as they did with FIVE (release a blu ray ver. 3 months later)

me too. i REALLY wanted this as a CD+BluRay set. forget DVDs!

[truehappiness]

They didn't announce FIVE's until it came out so wait until the album comes out and then maybe she'll do it?

Oh dear, I wonder if this means that she'll be doing the Party Queen tour in 2013? Oh jeeeez. I hope the decision to do HOTEL Love songs this year isn't going to haunt Ayu fffffff. Kind of not looking forward to waiting a year+ for tours from now on. Or maybe she'll be mixing pieces of Party Queen with Love songs?

You know, since we know what had a PV now... maybe we can figure out what is getting what PV?

how beautiful you are <--Middle East?
Return Road <-- robots in the factory?
Shake It♥ <--apartment or nightclub?
NaNaNa <--apartment or nightclub?

Was there a hint somewhere that two of the PVs were connected from an extra? I remember reading it but I'm not entirely sure. The apartment PV was shot first, then the factory one with scientists, then the nightclub with crazy makeup.

One of the tracks is a rock track it seems, judging from that one Japanese fan who heard some of it from a UK guy who the filming was near... so probably Shake It or NaNaNa? But then again Return Road sounds like it could be a rockish track... aghhh!

[TeamAyu2004]

^ yeah Im thinking after about a month or so it will be rereleased with blu-ray like FIVE was!

I think that's what she's going to do, but to me it'd be a bit unfair for Love songs though haha.

That's exactly my guesses~
And i've never read anywhere two of the pvs might be connected or smth, but well i'd be glad if it's the case. (:

[hidekirby]

I don't understand, the packs contain the CDL twice???
2DVD + BLURAY (the same live on DVD or BR)
or
2DVD + 2 DVD (WTF??)
???

[brener]

i more info to decid wich version i'll buy ><

[Nadya]

wow, the titles shocked me in a way as well but well, it's not the most important thing if there are good songs behind them, which actually happened before many times

You guys made me laugh a lot about these kebab things in the previous thread and the next LOVE, lol... this one especially made me believe at first that the tracklist is fake

and, by the way, I don't know why, my first impression was that Letter and call could be connected somehow, just judging by the titles... either melodically like Sunrise/Sunset or logically (like Virgin Road and Return Road could be, which I agree to)... but well, maybe I got this impression just because they are next to each other in this list. Who knows, maybe call is just an interlude, as some suggest.
