yup.... R&B like..

[YUKARI]

nooooo!!! I was sure Eyes Smoke Maigc would be a full song!!

[emi♡]

That tracklist does make sense though...I am sad about no intro, but oh well. Maybe Return road is appropriate.

And lol Love Songs barely needed interludes.

[microphone]

I will have PS VITA to keep me entertained until Party Queen. Hmm... I seem to be obsessed with Ayumi.

[yamadashun]

but the task-interludes are always put at the latter parts in the tracklist. so when i see this taskebab as the first interlude i feel so weird. but i do believe that Return Road will be put as the opening.

and Happening Here as hidden track? T___T

I'm sorry, but this is just a horrible song... I dont even think it will grow on me. :*(

This! Happening Here really doesn't deserves to be on Party Queen... (Though it kinda fits tbh... but still that song needs to gtfo.)

I'm jealous! I need one of those too! I'm killing the time by drawing.... manga.... o.O

Aren't task interludes usually rock influenced (well the more recent ones)? If so, then the next LOVE could be similar to is this LOVE? - Same amount of syllables, same order of words, "LOVE" capitalized. Then Shake It would be rock as well. I could see it being a fun party rock song.

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

Oh my... I really would prefer less interludes... And I really would prefer happening here to not be on it. Ayu, you don't have to include -everything- in your albums!

[truehappiness]

There's really nothing that ties the taskin/task interludes together besides the fact that tasuku composed and arranged them. taskinst was very rockish but tasking was more of a clubby beat.

From what I can see, the rumored album tracklist appears to start off in a rock/ballad territory before getting more upbeat after taskebab. I'm going to check what the reports were on Shake It since they seemed to point at the song being very dance poppy.

Ah, it looks like it was gwijai's post then. They said it was a fast song and I remember wondering if the PVs were going to be connected since it seems that they are going to have some of the same cast members in all three PVs (somewhat like that band in the background of Sexy little things/Microphone).

With this piece of information combined with Nigel's Tumblr (the stylist for the extras) it looks like Shake It is for sure the first PV filmed in an apartment in East London. I think it's also safe to say that Return Road was filmed in the factory with the tank, scientists, and drones, and NaNaNa was filmed at the Fabric nightclub in Farringdon with people doing a bit of gymnastics and in crazy makeup/hair/tattoos/etcetera.

They also say that there is a hidden track.

EDIT: I found the source and it's one of the forums that get advance copies of Ayu's albums. They source avex as where they got this information. Here we goooo.



Unconfirmed tracklist:
01. Return Road
02. Letter
03. call
04. Tell me why
05. taskebab (interlude)
06. the next LOVE
07. Shake It
08. a cup of tea (interlude)
09. NaNaNa
10. Eyes, Smoke, Magic (interlude)
11. Party Queen
12. Reminds me
13. Serenade in A minor (interlude)
14. how beautiful you are + hidden track (Happening Here)

Remember. THIS IS UNCONFIRMED.

This must be fake, he used comic sans!
and it should be Shake it♥, not Shake It.

[truehappiness]

The only reason why I think this probably has some validity to it is that it was posted at a forum that does have confirmed connections with avex. (And it was posted by a moderator there... not some random user.)

The font doesn't really say anything about whether it's true or not since they probably just made it like this to post on Weibo easily or something. What does bug me though is that it's a bit early for us to be getting this information.

Hm, looks very "Ayuish". It might start with an epic (Return Road) goes with electro/or medium (like It was or sending mail), then it might be rock - call/Tell me Why, then taskebab (something upbeat) goes to next LOVE (which might be anything - from something like STEP you to something even like Sparkle), Shake it might be a little medium for some reason - then interlude - upbeat till Party Queen, reminds me might be something like Like a doll/November or alterna (anything really) and then a cute classical interlude to ballad. One ballad WOULD MAKE ME THE HAPPIEST GIRL IN THE WORLD! Even if not, please, let it be ROCK ballad.

I can wait for Return Road. PV looks AMAZING. Better the song be.

[pepper]

+++++ I am BETING one of the song will be very cutesy-bubble-ayu-and-her-immature-voice. There are only TWO + "FIVE" of the full album without the bubble-gum song!

Love songs: Thank U
RnR'C: Sunrise ~LOVE is ALL~
NEXT LEVEL: NEXT LEVEL/EnergizE (still something a lil diffrent than usual though)
GUILTY: glitter
Secret: Beautiful Fighters/BLUE BIRD
(miss)understood: Beautiful day
MY STORY: HONEY/Replace
Memorial adress: ANGEL'S SONG

-- break in RAINBOW and I am...! --

Duty: immature
LOVEppears - ASfxx doesn't count, they are all in some way cute ;D

SO PREPARE FOR THE CANDIES AND UNICORNS!! SHE WON'T LEAVE US IN PIECE! XD

But seriously, I would be VERY happy if she would NOT include the "cheese cute voiced song" this time. But the one that might be the one I would say NaNaNa or the next LOVE.

[PoetGirl]

how beautiful you are had some cutesy vocals, even tho song is not super cute, I hope for at least one cute.

[JackieRos]

if that's true I'm glad happening here is there.

[truehappiness]

Wouldn't Party Queen count as the cutesy track of the album since it's about partying and is really bubbly?

hmmm.. kinda right. But still very "EnergizE" type (party+electronish) so it isn't really the type I think of, but yeah, still bubbly. I hope this is the only one Still a good one! I really like Party Queen.

I wasn't that excited for Love songs... Because I wasn't fan of the singles. I love Love songs but especially for album tracks. Now I'll got all-in-one, omg. It's gonna be a good day. Yay. <3
