Is "One" going to be one of the songs in this album? That would be a nice title for a good song.

If the album cover is just a giant "1" that would be... interesting.

^^ thank you for those short quotes from ayu. It made me appreciate those songs even more. :)

So Gloria was originally recorded in 2006? Holy shit, no wonder I fell in love with it the moment I heard it then. It does have that (m)u/Secret vibe on it. I felt really nostalgic when I heard Gloria for the first time. It felt like I went back to those days when I was just discovering Ayu's music <3

Yeah, it must have been since I think Kome directed it at the time.

@truehappiness, is that an interview where you got those infos about LOVE again's tracks?

Yep. It was a magazine interview. SCawaii.

Thanks!

for some reason, I just keep thinking of the RAINBOW recording session video.
I honestly would love just a bunch of recording room pictures for the cover and booklet. Or something like A Life photobook!

The title seems (to me at least) to have a rather personal vibe.

I think a black and white cover would be really nice.

Sounds like a great idea to me!!

Best,
David Reitzas

Sounds like you got your wish, Jerrrrzz. Well, if they recorded at Record Plant... maybe David is highly likely at least for ballads.

BANNER LOOKS AWESOME! I hope it will have some personal booklet shoot.. I never was fan of this, I always wanted "pretty shots" to make some graphics, but I have feeling that it's a good direction! I dunno why, but every time i see studio shot from ayu (from twiter for example etc) I hear "girlish" in the backround <3

I made my fanart covers for A ONE. Check it out if you're interested.

Hmm that artist have songs lying around for some time is pretty normal, yet, when they miss the right time, it could sound dated or simply just bore listeners. I think that happend with LOVE again (yet, mostly due to the fact that the best songs were relesed already)

I think the songs chosen for LOVE again were really good... I wonder what kinds of CREA compositions are lying around that didn't make the cut.

So now that I've entered the "I must obsess about my own visions of the cover" stage of my processing, if we do get a studio photo shoot, something similar in vain to this would be really nice. Like, a new beginning. Pure, simple. Less glamourous and posed than A BEST II.

Something black&withe on the cover would be awsome

And i really want a song just an acoustic guittar

A song composed by Singaporean singer JJ Lin will be featured in Ayu's next album. It's called The Gift.
The article is also saying that Ayu broke into tears after listening to the demo. It's a difficult song to sing, but it's like a "gift from the sky".
