the problem is "good music" is well...lt depends on a taste.... i think it's just because people are so much into all that dance stuff the past few years that it's taking over the world of music now. very few appreaciate deeper meaning in music these days, or so it looks for me *shrugs*

i think she might just need a new wind of creativity to freshen up a bit? but then again what might be fresh to me or to someone else might be in no way fresh for anyone else, and francly dance music to me is nothing fresh xD.....i just want more music, badass music lol

tho i do agree with the lack of promotion. and i don't understand that at all *shrugs*

Ayu...please hang on!

it's really weird that this is happened...her LOVE again album is really a reminisence of her early work.

I don't know...
if Japanese really want something fresh from her...i think the best way to do it is...she need to discharged all of her team and working with new team...from top to bottom..especially on creative area...

I was talking to my friend the other day about how she's changed a lot recently and not in a good way. She's not really like last time anymore. We still think Timmy is part of it. About the bad ticket sales.... Well... Probably people are tired of her gossips back to back. She used to say Mannie was her last angel and there's no way this is gonna be bad so and so and yet she broke up. With Maro... Another controversy. Oh well...

If she still gives great shows like the recent CDL and last year's tour and great songs like Wake me up, Song 4 u and petal I couldn't care less from what the media and a name her unfortunately failing relationships are doing for her, or Timmy (if he's doing anything at all except for being a good friend). Still, the only bad thing is that I miss her releasing more stuff and singles.

Come on, if people is not attending for crap like this, then who cares, people are obviously idiots. I personally think she believed in what she said, and the beautifully devastating lyrics of Party Queen prove enough how painful it was to discover she was wrong, and I might be mistaken, it may be all fake, but everyone just need to think about how their past relationships would look exposed in the public and do a lil bit of self-criticism. Sorry about the rant, but if read again stupid judgemental stuff like "she said he was her last angel, and then they parted" I'm going mad.
And why should Timmy be held responsable for what she is now? I'm not ironic, I'm really curious about this, like, someone doesn't like his look and composition skills, ok, but why would he be a bad influence for Ayu as a friend? I just don't understand.

Struggling to sell tickets...
I'd go in a heartbeat, but they make it so needlessly difficult (the money is no problem, I can save as much as needed).

Why is it difficult? You just let a middleman handle it, sit back and wait

People have started disliking Ayu back in 2005/06...It's not anything new really. The recent events prolly made it worse...Not that imho it matters.

THIS! I just don't understand why people keep bashing her. If her relationships doesn't work, well, it must have a good reason. If she married Mannie, it's because she believed it would last forever (she said it herself!). No one enters in a relationship thinking about the end, we all hope it will last, but sometimes, for many reasons, people just grow apart. It happens to everyone, including with her. I think it's truly unfair that people 'are mad' at her bc she and Maro broke up and if there are people that are not attending to the concert bc of this, they are **** fans, I'm sorry.

As for Timmy, I think he's a little too much on stage, but he is a really good friend to her, seems that he was there all the time when she needed. What else could we expect from a friend?

Personally, I understand why she's upset, I'd be upset too. I think that she's doing her best, she wouldn't do anything but her best and maybe right now this is not enough to please her fans anymore, so of course she's upset, things are not turning out the way it was suppose to be. Still, I think it's a great concert, may not be her best, but I would attend gladly if I have the chance and would be a time to remember for me.

She should take a year or two for touring, it's no wonder her ticket sales are down, not everyone can justify going to see the same artist every year unless they're a hardcore fan. Her concerts have become like a yearly product..like the latest version of FIFA or Call of Duty, more of the same with a different number/year, etc.

Agreed

And without the abundance of adequate, significant new releases (we have albums, but not actual singles since September 2010!!!), I just don't understand why ticket sales are falling down and her recent concerts are harder to justify...

Don't act like she was the only one who made tours every year ! All japanese singers have tours every year ... Her ticket sales are down because she is less popular that's all and normal ? Her last album sold 90 K but She can always attract more than 275 000 people it's not bad but I agree a break of 1 or 2 years can be good for her in order to get fresh ideas
