Ohh, thank you so much! can't wait for the full momentum


P.S.
For people who were saying Jewel's PV looks rushed...it clearly wasn't because I hear it cost over 100 million yen to make o.0
Jewel= my new favorite PV ever

[Linus]

[chocolate]

I'll wait also full songs but it really could be her best album as everyone seems to like previews. I just have to continue reading Ayu threads every half an hour for Secret!

[RionZ]

god...i need to clear some HD space...i feel like listening to a crapload of Ayu over this weekend.

Wakaba, it's not mini

It's a full album. 14 tracks.

Yeah, I just saw that! LOL Aaahh, one of my blonde moments! LOL

Edit: But wasn't it originally going to be mini?

[wakaba_doll]

Wakaba, it's not mini

It's a full album. 14 tracks.

Yeah, I just saw that LOL Sorry, having one of my blonde moments! LOL But wasn't it supposed to be a mini...? *confused* Oh well^^

Anyway, just listened to the previews (thanks, DB! ) and I love all of the songs so far! Ayu's voice is so strong, especially in the first few songs... "momentum" reminds me almost of "Free & Easy" and "M" in its sound (both of which are songs I adore~ Classic Ayu!) and I absolutely *LOVE* the rocking feel of "until that Day..."!

Imo, it seems like SECRET has Ayu going back to what she does best~ she experimented a lot with the rock sound on (miss)understood, but this album seems like it's going back to I am... (one of her standout albums, again imo^^ LOL) and maybe even Rainbow (although Rainbow wasn't one of my faves ). All in all, this is a must-buy for every Ayu fan! Lots of classic sounds and new ones to enjoy!

[RionZ]

yea it was supposed to be a mini-album but was later changed to a full-fledged album

[wakaba_doll]

^ I knew it! LOL Thanks for letting me know I didn't just hallucinate that whole thing, RionZ! LOL

[DroolBoy]

Yeah, about a month ago, the album was supposed to be a mini..

And then Ayu decided to add seven brand new tracks at the end of October!

Wasn't "I am" so amazing? :ONwriggly: I see exactly what you're saying and I'm excited

[DroolBoy]

Thanks to Heerohanabi@Ayuchina




WOW.

More Ayu stuff!

[LovelyMermaid]

:0 I thought it wasn't coming out till the 29th!! ...it all looks so beautiful...

[RionZ]

yea, some insider people usually get stuff early

[wakaba_doll]

Wasn't "I am" so amazing? :ONwriggly: I see exactly what you're saying and I'm excited

Yes, it was!^^ I am... is my second fave Ayu album after LOVEppears. I'm *SO* happy to see/hear her going back to the style that worked best with her!

Thanks to Heerohanabi@Ayuchina




WOW.

More Ayu stuff!

Wow... You're so lucky to get it ahead of time! LOL Although those aren't just really good bootlegs, are they?

[DroolBoy]

You can't make a bootleg of something that isn't out, wakaba

Maybe the day after the 29th, but not before O_O

[Linus]

Ayu's (miss)understood never happened. It was a fake reality. IT WAS AYAYA!



Muahahaha~~

I can imagen the printer
-Who did you say?
-Ayu!
-Can't hear you!
-Ayu!
-Ay...a! Fine!

And Aya's name got printed

[shadowstar]

New ViVi

[wakaba_doll]

I'm not sure if anyone has posted this yet but~

:heart:Ayu is on the US iTunes store!!:heart:

They have 46 of her albums and singles, of which Ayu Trance 1 and Memorial Address (2 albums I have yet to get! LOL) are on it! They also have her first album, A Song For XX, and her singles Kanariya and Fly High, which are really rare! I'll definitely be purchasing some stuff~ I practically have Ayu's complete discography on my own, so if anyone wants anything, please feel free to ask^^ I just might have it!

[DroolBoy]

Yeah, that stuff's been there since around March of this year~ :p

[wakaba_doll]

^ Oh LOL Oh, well~ Spread the love! LOL
