I am longing for the full version of Armin's dub mix of "Terminal"... I am playing the 3:37min ASOT version on loop :'(

You know what makes me mad? The fact that Jasmine and Crystal Kay have had songs on their EDM-influenced albums that are so much better than the ones Ayu has had produced by these "international DJs". XOXO is just dreadful for a REDONE production... He has had some REALLY great songs (Live It Up / J.Lo | Nicole Scherzinger's solo album works - and I REALLY dislike Nicole!). It's a real shame...

^ According to the XOXO / Terminal booklet scans, XOXO wasn't even touched by RedOne (Nadir Khayat) himself... only his production team worked on it. False advertising, if anything.

Nice. So it's like a "my people will meet with your people" type of thing.

I was a little disappointed too tbh, but I still liked the songs so I didn't mind so much.

but really, I couldn't tell if it was Ayu or the producers that were fucking up the songs in the end. I still don't know who is responsible for the Angel travesty. But whatever.


I'm just happy the songs are more enjoyable than her other recent songs.

Tex Saverio (born 1984) is an Indonesian fashion designer.

Saverio's work has been worn by international celebrities such as Lady Gaga (who chose to wear Saveiro for her Lady Gaga Fame advertising campaign) and Kim Kardashian. Lady Gaga was photographed in a sheer black laser-cut and sequined Saverio dress called 'La Glacon' for Harper's Bazaar in 2011. The dramatic metal-and-chiffon wedding dress which Jennifer Lawrence wears in advance publicity material for the 'The Hunger Games: Catching Fire' film was designed by Saverio.

Omg RedOne didn't even work on it? :-0

Although my problem (though minimal) with Xoxo is the lyrics, not the music. I actually find the music ok. The lyrics are the tacky part though. Oh well, it's supposed to be that way I suppose. The video is just as tacky. I think she was going for that.

Musically I don't dislike any of the tracks. They're all fine. Now & 4eva, Pray and Hello new me belong on a more cohesive album though.

ohno..no wonder, XOXO doesn't sound like RedOne's works on lady gaga's music.
maybe ayu just wants a song that connects to her more.

EVERYTHING gets better in full HD.. I really like all the videos, just don't care about Feel the love ayupan ver. at all, 'cause I dislike animation MVs.

I love everything about this album, it's a great summer album for me <3

Although I think despite XOXO and Hello new me all songs are great, I have to agree that Take It Outside is a REALLY great song!

I actually think XOXO sounds a lot like Gaga's first album. I can feel RedOne's touch on it, even if it was just his team working on it. That doesn't really say too much because I'm not a big fan of his works haha but I love XOXO.

It's so strange that we don't have any pics of the CDs until now '-' Most of the next week releases, like Tomomi Itano's debut album, already have pictures spread all over the internet

I hope she will surprise us with some television promo for this...though in reality, she'll probably be a plane to LA as soon as the showcase is finished.
