I mostly tried to do my best with live I like the most with the less lipsync as possible ^^

I was for example surprised you didn´t take the Mirrorcle World live from Asia Tour.

You’re right the asia tour 2008 is the most iconic but I’ll make a new video later with her most iconic live.

Yeah I've been seeing him RT stuff like that since a long time ago (even spring iirc), so I was also wondering if there might've been conflicts regarding ayu not doing concerts with audience when technically she was allowed to (I've heard that, for example, Koda Kumi held some) or something along those lines

That also affects ayu's public image

I think that there must be some bigger issues than different views on covid-19.

I believe we can't know that for sure.

Timmy's views are very strong and unfortunately he confirmed them.
This is a very big thing, it's not about different views anymore. It's about the actions that he takes in regards to this.

I wouldn't downplay this reason. We cannot know clearly what happened between them, but it takes a pandemic to see the real faces of some people and that can be reason enough to end a relationship.

This being said, I resigned myself to the idea that we will probably never know the reason and I will respect the fact that they do not wish to disclose more on the subject.

If he encourages reckless behaviour then I agree it's a big deal. I can't process how people can still think it's a conspiracy. It's sad that all things come to an end, even strong friendships.

[relmy]

I'm guessing that as performers working closely together they're all getting tested a lot? Maybe even being asked to quarantine? I know lots of places have similar rules.If he thinks it's not a big deal he might have refused to go along with rules put in place around rehearsals etc?

I guess we'll never know, it might even have nothing to do with his Corona conspiracies.

[SunshineSlayer]

Especially with her having a newborn and also being pregnant, I could see this as legitimately being the reason.

Trawling Mercari JP and remembering when Ayu released a hairbrush lmao

[Earth_maiden]

Misako Uno from AAA covered SEASONS:

[Sky High]

^ She has really nice voice. That is good cover.

[EndOfTheWorld]

Wow. She did a great job covering SEASONS.

[RealLight]

Whoever bought the BEST LIVE BOX, how's Natsu no Trouble? Is it too different from the streamed broadcast?

[pedronekoi]

Found this english version of a song for xx on YouTube covered by this guy called Ro. He did a great job "translating" the lyrics to english. I really felt it kept the essence of the japanese lyrics.

[indigochild]

Not to sound super cheesy right now but I'm just having a full Ayu marathon from albums, music videos, concerts, tv lives, etc and she truly is one of a kind and I just feel so incredibly lucky to have discovered such an artist. Since 2004 I've been a fan and even though her recent works hasn't been my favourite, I will always admire her artistry and just who she is as a person. For the most part I don't care about celebrities AT ALL but Ayu? I truly and deeply respect. That's all Now lemme get back to my marathon lol

[mi|kshake]

Thanks for posting that video pedronekoi. As you say the lyrics keep the spirit of the original and I like that he used his own arrangement too!
