Ayu album songs as single songs

[gogirlanime]

I was wondering, what Ayu album songs do you guys think would have been good enough as a single? I think Heartplace, Because of You, Angel's Song, Real me, Naturally, and A Song for XX would have made great singles, especially if done about 2 years ago when she would have about 8 remixes on each one. What do you guys think?

[Ayumi_Hamasaki902]

I really think so too. I really wish that Real Me, Naturally and Angel's Song should have been singles. As well as Heartplace. I also think that everywhere nowhere should have been one too.

There's many, but we don't really need them that's all.

My picks of would-have-done-well-as-singles songs are:
- Naturally
- Who...
- POWDER SNOW
- immature
- I am...
- Memorial address
- ANGEL'S SONG
- Duty
- Key~eternal tie ver.~

[Cloud]

Naturally & Because of You

[Unimatrix Prime™]

-Ever Free
-Because of You
-GAME (assuming it had several remixes)
-I am...
-No More Words
-Naturally

I think if Flower Garden was longer or more 'complete' with another verse or something it could've made a really genki, catchy summer song.

A Song for XX and POWDER SNOW.

They both need full PVs.

I think a lot of her best songs are excellent album tracks, but aren't necessarily single material. Like "Real me," "Dolls," and "everywhere nowhere" -- they're kinda needed at album HQ to keep it going strong and interesting. Generally music with unique music or lyrics that push buttons are not good ideas for singles, but still make wicked songs for an album, which give it that extra punch. Of course Ayu, being Ayu, has already made several exceptions!

Others I wish were singles, though, would be:

- Because of You
- Angels Song
- Memorial address [is a maybe -- AWESOME song, though]
- Fly High [was this a single? I'm unsure]
- girlish
- HANABI [was a single, but needs a PV]
- Naturally
- RAINBOW

indeed!! i would want Heartplace, ANGEL's SONG, RAINBOW...

I second that.

Furthermore, I'd like to have had a Girlish single, and I wished Ever Free was released as a stand-alone single (or album track for that matter), instead of cramming it somewhere on the Vogue single. On top of that, No More Words, immature, and Hanabi ~Episode II~ should have had a seperate release, instead of being 'just a part' of &.

Finally, I agree with the entirety of K's list, maybe with the exception of Angel's Song.

Avex wanted to release Rainbow as a single in the first place. I don't know why they decided not to.... Anyways:

Rainbow
And Then
End of the World
Duty
Because of You
We Wish
Everywhere nowhere

That would be one of the reasons I would agree to about Avex being evil.

A Ballads was totally unnecessary.

Entirely true.

I love the A Song for XX session 128794579034765492580435764357892597834290 though.

[starr5245]

Avex wanna earn loads!! o.O

[kournikova]

I'm ture does't excist. Must be immature... It was released on the single appears before it was on the album. The single has a remix version of it but so does the album (immature-album ver)

I know it doesn't ._. I'm just joking, because I love the bootlegged name "I'm Ture"

[voltron]

I think any of the tracks from I Am... were strong enough to be stand-alone singles.

[Vinh]

ourselves from the & single...

A dark single... argh -_-;

I think it would've done well.
