But I'm fine even if this is all. I'm just really happy about this release.

Same here, maybe some interludes and a bonus track

Sales will hardly be above 55k, aiko's new album debuted with only 80k copies and along with namie and kana she's one of the best selling solo acts nowadays. Kumi and Miliyah with great difficulty managed to sell between 50 and 60k...

I wonder what would happen if this album doesn't have a cover and be like BEYONCÉ, a black background with "AYUMI" wrote on it

She is? :O
That changes things

I really wanna see Ayu but I also really wanna see Angela aki, and ticket prices aren't cheap
Like Ayu's set list is great and I've ALWAYS wanted to see her live but Angela aki probably won't ever ever ever perform again... A mess tbh.

[Ashen Twilight]

I'm not to worried about sales. Ayu and avex are recouping costs from the increased ticket price due to the "free" CDs at each venue. And they are getting more money from TA members who bought the songs before hand through mu-mo. In all actuality, the people being screwed over the most are TA members since they are the most likely to buy from every medium available.

I'm hoping it can do around LOVE again's numbers, but that may a little too high of a projection. Haha I remember after RnRC that I was hoping Love songs would match it since 300k seemed like a good amount to be consistent at. Then it kept going lower and lower and I was like, well, I hope she can be like Yuming and sell 100k with each original album. And then that didn't happen. So it is pretty much like whatever now.

Don't go to Ayu's if you're on a budget tbh. You're already seeing Angela Aki; that's amazing in itself. Plus, she's retiring so she ain't coming back for a long, long time (if ever).

I have a feeling that it might be styled like "forte" on a piece of music (if that's the case).

[xLuna&1LOVE]

Do they have proof?

[freedreamer]

F ?! LOL trollolol
F for fifteen

[!Lawi!]

I'd be ok with F ahaha ! As long as it doesn't implie love!

[Benikari47]

F for "F*ck i'm out of ideas"

[Zeke.]

I don't know why people are excited about no evolution/surreal. Sure, those staples may be annoying when watching live, but ATTENDING live and EXPERIENCING those songs are special moments. I'd much rather see those performed live than attend a much shorter setlist that basically just cut the songs out, rather than replacing them with other material.

[KuuXAyu-fan]

The mu-mo cut-off date for release day delivery is June 11 so they should be releasing the covers very soon so people have a little time to decide which versions they want.

[truehappiness]

F doesn't seem like that bad of an idea compared to a XXXX LOVE / LOVE XXXX title.

I mean, she's had lots of different titles over the years so this one is really not that bad if it is the case.

However, I think we would have found out the title from Chinese fans first before Japanese fans. They seem to be pretty quick in spreading information.

[ayumisrael]

LOL, most people prefered anything over "Love" something, so voila, but wait we still might get an official love something title =P haha

[njanjayrp]

The title is prolly going to end up being New Album...
