However, I do agree with you because all of these ballads are kinda driving me crazy. I had such high hopes for a truly diverse Triple A-side. I mean.. look at all of her other "1 character multi A-side" singles!!

A
A nostalgic song, 2 upbeat songs and a ballad.

H
One very cheerful song, one nostalgic summer song and a ballad

&
A rock/urban-ish song (don't really know how to describe "ourselves" ), an upbeat summer song and a ballad

L
3 medium ballads

Well, okay we don't know what she'll be doing with Last Angel, but it's pretty much certain it's also a medium ballad.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOORING, we just had MOON, Crossroad and SEVEN DAYS WAR, move on please.

I had such high hopes for L. Rock, electro, trance, anything but this. Maybe Last Angel will still surprise me! *prays*

Nice observation on 3A singles
I had all of them (except L ^^,) and each of it has its own characteristics.

Im not really bothered if the single is a pure ballad.
As long as I enjoyed it, im fine with it.
Im hoping Last Angel is a dark song or something like that.

[AyumiAi]

Ahh oh well i just hope these 3 ballads will be so emotional and beautiful
plus if she has a lot of ballad singles, chances are we'll get more ubpeat stuff
for the album

He has a song called GREEN DAYS haha:

WOW. That's really really good!

[HTMSD]

still no news on ayuchina?
Usually at Thursday/Friday a week before the single released, they've already had the CD and take a photos of it. And we may have the full leaked single on this night / saturday night, probably~

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

^^Hopefully! I can't wait for CD rips of crossroad and L!

It's so weird...we just got the info for L, so it should be that the single is still WEEKS away, but really, it's like 12 days. Wow.

I feel the exact same way. The last time I really feel in love with an Ayu song and played it over and over again was Sparkle. Microphone and Sexy little things appealed to me as well. We have great taste in song choice because before those songs were kiss o' kill :3

And we are sooo modest :3 But yeah, you feel my taste exactly.

The only one ballad that makes me "bloom in love" was You were. It was not exactly my power love, but it was only one ballad that had so emotions for me

[Picaflor 7/4]

I haven't loved a song and replayed it since sparkle. and before that, fated. :/

[aura~]

Ayu posted a TA message right now.. I translated it, I think I got it right:

Because I was composing/writting a new song, I had no sense of time.
Today, this evening there's the recording of a music TV program♪
From now untill then, sleep sleep~
Pj pijama is "dapyon" (?), Yeei Yeeei♪
Excuse me for not wearning make up


oyasumiiiiiiiiiii☆

I psot it here because of this info... another new song... and a music TV program recording! Maybe a CDTV?? Can't wait for more TV promo!!

I also think that some time after 7 days special final we'll get an album announcement xD

[love in music]

^ yay for at least another live! i have confidence she will do great considering the condition of her voice lately~ her make-upless pics are so adorable too omg.

[AyUmIXx]

^
^
yay for another live music show..
can't waitttttttt!!
thanks aura~

[Zeke.]

I will piss myself if there is an album due to release around the Holiday season. I miss when her albums are released before Christmas! It makes Christmas day that much more suspenseful!

[AyuGAME]

looks like new album is coming soon...she keep composing new and recording new song...

yay for another tv performance...

An album in April and then in November/December?

I know you people reach but can we please be realistic?

Why not? She's recording a lot lately and already has 6 a-sides? I've thought she was going to get back in the habit of releasing albums in December. They sell more

it can happen. it's not like people are just pulling things out of their ass. we just think it's possible because she keeps talking about recording and she's obviously finished recording the single songs.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

I just feel like it would have been a stretch to have two albums 6-8 months apart back in 2000/2001, let alone 2010. but who knows.

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

Usually it would be rather fast for an album, but she already has 3 singles released before October totallying in a possible 7 songs for the album (if SEVEN DAYS WAR ends up being included), even though she just released an album in April.

Given a normal 2-3 month break between the last single and album, it's not that weird if we got an album in Dec/Jan.

Personally, though, I'd rather see another single before an album.
But even having 3 singles per year is a bit rare now for Ayu.

omg yeeeees, i remember when (m)u leaks was right there before/or after christmas. it was a holy perfect winter

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

^ By far the best timing for an album release was MY STORY, imo

I remember listening to it on my portable cd player while on my way to every Christmas party that year hahaha. I don't even remember the last time I saw someone even using a portable cd player haha
