New album 'Colours' out July 2nd [II]
Recent updates: covers came out and all PVs are available to watch somehow. Only things that haven't been released so far are booklet shots and making-ofs. There is also a possibility for a hidden track, perhaps...

I enjoyed Lelio and XOXO a million times more than I enjoyed Shake it and Nanana's pvs. She looks a million times better too lol
Angel's pv is okay, I found it pretty but the end could've been better. Also, I expected shots from the ballerinas from a bit further away so you could actually see their dancing properly. Colours is definitely a very fun release with very solid tracks and gorgeous covers I enjoy when ayu takes risks or tries new things, I was so bored with love songs/love again. |

This will be one of my fave albums from her. She looks good! She's happy! The songs are nice!

^^Agree with you, Colours is a fun release. It's like a new breeze after LOVE again dullness for me.
The PVs are not bad they're mostly OKs or generic but it may be something that she rarely does and have already been done by other singers so it seems not as impressive, grante her older PVs are more detailed, and like truehappiness said her made in Japan PV seems to be more high quality than her overseas PV although there are some cases it's not. FTL PV is nice, I like both versions of it MGR PV is love! the minor thing I don't like is her acting Lelio is generic, not bad but I don't really dig her make up and her baggy white shorts XOXO is the same with Lelio, generic. The clothes and the overacting are big minuses for me but still bearable Angel has been said a reminisce of Curtain Call, it's nice and her dress is gorgeous. I was thinking maybe she should've have made PV for all songs and made this one her Beyonce album lol |

ayu AYU
xoxo looks like something a Real Housewife would release, which is hot in a different way I guess but like..... Lelio looks like 2010 with a 1500 yen budget Angel wasn't that bad (until the end) but she looks like a sim during some parts?? The song tho, who thought that chorus was a good idea who allowed this why is this happening I had my complains for party queen/love again but overall I still liked the albums. I feel nothing for everything from Colours rn, except some of the covers if I pretend the font doesn't exist. |

As I said in the other thread I always put my expectation lower when she's filming overseas, seems like Luiz Hernandes's videos are always boring when they have more than 2-minute long
I don't know if he's the director of those, but, I think not, they're more entertainer. Want to see them all in better quality to make more judgements, but I do like Angel. Like, not love. hahaha |

Yeah, I agree with above. Colours is not the album for me. Pray and Lelio are the only songs I listen to. (I totally even forgot about Now & 4EVA and it's stupid title. The song's good though.)
The PVs... yeah they've been disected so I'm not going there. Just gonna say someone should sit Ayu down and treat her to a viewing party of all her old PVs so she can reconnect with why people loved her. |

I'd like for everyone who said that Ayu's new PVs are just like all the other edm music videos being produced right now, to watch this please.
A video doesn't have to have some grand, deep concept to look good. And, videos that DO have some deep concept don't just get a free pass to look crappy. thanks for sharing.

Honestly, even if Ayu made an MV like that...people will be flipping and pissed. There'll be those who want MEANING in PVs, those who want BUDGET, those who want SOMETHING GOOD TO LOOK AT. so...bottomline: it really doesnt matter what she does anymore lol

^^sry, I think I was unclear.
That Calvin Harris video is miles ahead of hers. I saw too many comments that said that Ayu's Lelio video, and XOXO are just like other edm videos being produced, which is totally untrue.

Another good EDM music video. Imagine if this is the video for Lelio and not some crappy visual effects flying around her while she dances like a crazy woman...

I was thinking the same, she could've taken those electronic music PVs in the style of Zedd or Ellie Goulding.
And now that someone mentioned budget, I remembered when I said the 10 tracks are probably because she worked with those producers thus the PV turned out like that. |

Imo she shouldn't have made any of those videos in the first place. A waste of time, money and effort.

Seriously how could someone like this become that b**** in XOXO
I could never image the artist of 'Secret', 'Will' or 'rainy day' would turn into this 2014 version. I used to cry listening to her 'Secret' back then, but now look at her, XOXO is worse than the worst joke. How could someone ever find it interesting & enjoyable?
