It is very junior high school for anyone to be calling things "gay" nowadays. |

It's ok guys, let's just forget about that and not use the word gay like that anymore. Now let's stop making things going off topic and get back on track.

Not to mention the fact when you interpret ayu's lyrics you can actually find a strong bind between the title of the song and the lyrics.

Yeah I agree with you, the title usually strongly relates to the point of the song. I mean, look at No Way to Say, Evolution, I Am, and songs like that. Some of the meanings for the titles require some thought, but I can usually tell why a given song is named what it is.
I actually think that Greatful Days is a good title for the song, it makes sense just by looking at the PV for it. I think My Name's Women is a pretty good title, and I can see some kind of meaning in it. |

Let's just face it, a native English speaker would not have come up with alot of Ayu's Engrish titles, like, 'My name's WOMEN' or 'appears' or 'WE WISH'. They were obviously (poorly) translated straight from Japanese.
How do I know this? Well, in Japanese, like most Asian languages, in most cases there's no difference between singular and plural so you use the same word for both 'woman' and 'women'. My theory is that Ayu probably thought she wanted the title to represent all of women but that went in conflict with 'My' which should've been 'Our', for it to make sense. |

If Uou would have a pet and name it "WOMEN" and the pet could talk, woouldn't it say: "my name's WOMEN"? So, GRAMATICALLY, it IS ok... And the meaning of the title is a different story... |

walking proud could surprise everyone and become a fast song. CAROLS is a slow ballad... I love CAROLS and Moments so it wouldn't bore me... |

As for my name's WOMEN, I've got to wait to see the lyrics before I start making any comments on the title. I still think it's still promising not to be completely randomly messed up English. And at least it's just the titles we're dealing with. While Ayu's English is a bit "off" at times, to say the least, at least it isn't like BoA's English at times. English version of Every Heart = AH! |

Or she is personifying women, like saying my name is WOMEN and then she talks about herself, being WOMEN...I dunno, that'd make sense... *can't wait until the CD is out so everyone will just shut up & quit arguing* Was everyone this bad before RAINBOW and Memorial address were out? I guess not since Ayu has never made her fans wait 2 years for an original album... Last edited by BanFan; 28th November 2004 at 03:05 PM. |

The intro track on aiko's newest album, Netsu, does that too, it's really cool when songs do that!
Free & Easy sort of does it too... Last edited by BanFan; 28th November 2004 at 05:06 PM. |
