*_* I'm really loving how Ayu is turning out on these covers lately...but nothing compares to that interview! Go Ayu! I wish more people could be open like that...and it's great to see that she's finally becoming satisfied with her work!

I wish I could be more like that.

I had the same reaction when I read that. Jeeze, she even speaks in perfect lyrics!

Thanks so much for the translation! I really enjoyed reading it and it gave lots of insight into the album and I appreciate it even more now. I was also very happy to see that she is already thinking about a tour for next year - I always get afraid that she is going to suddenly retire before I get the chance to see her live.

kawaiiiii~~~~~

[Larisa-chan]

omg thank you SO much for the translation of the article. It's been a long, long time since I've read such an in-depth interview with Ayu. She has such a genuine personality and I really feel the way she speaks is soooo sophisticated ^.^

hmmm she said that humming 7/4 was a look to what's to come.. I can't wait <3

[Baernash]

Thank you for full scans

[alterego]

Thank you very much for the translation. That was very insightful, I'm impressed, though I haven't bought the album yet, perhaps this has confirmed my buying of MY STORY.
