Ha ha absolutely. The fourth track seems like it could be trouble however not in caps.

I could understand that DVDs cost more than CDs, but these ones are at another level. Especially... considering that you would probably watch it 3-4 times, to be optimistically. Quote:

We're not dealing with a rational fan, though. This is someone who has already said they hate the music, the photos and declared the whole release a fail before any of these details were even announced. Yet she'll still spend 20,000 on it all, then when it arrives she'll barely listen to it or look at the photos and then come here to complain about how awful it all is and how mad she is at Au for making her spend so much money on something she never wanted. This is not 10,000 for 5 songs. No one is being forced to spend that much on something they are't interested in. If someone buys this with good intentions and then finds when it arrives they are disappointed with the quality of the workmanship, the video/audio quality of the DVDs/blu-rays, then for sure they can complain about spending so much and getting a subpar item. But until, complaining about the price and contents just seems redundant. |

I felt something similar to what you explained before to read you. Ayu is an engaged artist and that's why I think there is more behind that cover than only a beautiful photo. Playing with the codes that rule something is the best way to convey a message. On CK ads the girls on couple photoshoot have a sexy or/and pleasure pose and expression and most of the time their eyes look the camera/spectator to share that she like that and seduce them. Here the darkened eyes of Ayu and the fact that she doesn't look us break those marketing rules and point that something is wrong. There are so many things that can cause trouble and so many way to express them. An angry rock isn’t the only way to share a problem or a bad thing. The world is wider than that. I'm waiting to read her lyrics and to hear the melodies to understand how she succeeded to portray them. |

M(A)DE IN JAPAN was pretty conceptual, there was a connection between the titles, covers, lyrics, music and order of the songs.
I agree that this time doesn't seem the case but maybe we should wait to have the final product. I'm dissapointed at the moment, I love the covers but not as a musical product, I don't like WatQ and WORDS being in the mini (I like these two songs though), but who knows what Ayu is going to do after this release, maybe she has something in mind, I want to give her the benefit of the doubt.

I KNEW IT!
Kind of disturbing though but then again they both probably had something going on back then |

max matsuura? OMG, if we add the rumours about their romance at the start of Ayumi's career and kotora's analysis (who is a visionary) we have a great story here hahahaha

Certainly, I had hoped for more. I think most of us did. Recently, I purchased a box that contained one concert on blu-ray and the concert again on CD (plus another concert on CD) - all for 11,000. Felt like a bit of a fool spending so much, but the quality of the set really made up for it and that's the hope I have for this, right now. |

This is even more disturbing.

The main thing that bothers me so far with Trouble is the relation between the '''''edgy''''' title and provoking cover, and the fact 3 out of the five songs are generic sounding mid tempo tracks. I guess that's what you get for hyping yourself but when I read trouble I heard WARNING, (don't) leave me alone and a bit of Microphone, not Summer diary! Still excited for new songs I can't lie, but I'm pretty positive that I won't be putting money in this release, which would be the first time since love again that I don't purchase a new album. |

I love the covers, or more like the crop of the pictures that they used, and i'm not mad with the text either.
But that full body shot is just plain out disturbing and even more so when you know who's on that coutch....makes me cringe. But i like the way the image looks from the composition aspect. Man it gives me mixed feelings

OMYGOD I am glad I am not the only one going overboard with this. I am so uncomfortable right now.
Edit: well I am glad I know it, because I was twisting whether I should buy the deluxe set anyway... but this saves me 70 euros.

She means the watch is from Max. I used to work for luxury watches industry. That god damn watch on the album cover is over USD10,000. Special version could go up to USD100,000. No wonder Max has one.
