This release is kind of funny, I'm definitely not surprised this happened. The covers are stunning :heart Looking forward to the new songs.

okay so i didn't buy LOVE or again, but after reading this, *i* even felt cheated. like we were tricked and used. why ayu?! how freakin' stupid!

JackieRos 27th December 2012 01:34 AM

they said "all new songs" and then they took it down and now it contains repeated songs.
that's what bothers me more.

after reading through it, I agree with every point but the last...
I love the covers.

BlackSilence 27th December 2012 01:38 AM

^^ they did this ?? o_O -200 points for them....

i think that's what made me all confused and pissed because they stated that...and.....i saw the whole tracklist and it seems they changed it? oh man.... i wonder was there some sort of a reason bechind that.....:dead2

Not cool, Avex, NOT cool...:no

this is what it boils down to.

And labeling singles as mini albums to jack up the price
and label mini albums as full-length albums with recycled tracks to jack up the price

it's ****ed up

I need a ****ing xanax after this thread.

i think people should accept this, this is not the end of the world, it's a typical album release with just a few new songs and thats ok...
i mean look at Hikki's HEART STATION (3/4 new songs+ 1 interlude) or Namie's Uncontrolled (4 new songs)...
so 7 new songs (probably 5 songs and 2 interludes) isn't the best, BUT it could be much worse!!

some people are dissapointed of some reasons, yes!
BUT people shouldn't act like this or tweet her bad things...
it's not you own her, she can do whatever she (or avex) wants!
you know, she's an artist, she's a product, she's here to make people throwing money at her!!
and if someone don't like it, thats ok, it's not like you can love anything your fave puts out!
let's just be happy we get some new music and let's see if we can enjoy them like i enjoyed the songs we already have! :)

PS: and all those "i'm mad" posts, tweets and blog entries are funny (at least for me)...
can't wait for the first video on youtube about this! :laugh
it's ok when you're mad, BUT oh my...

ture, what's your point?

well, for me it was and i even posted that this would happen, talked to my friend this will happen, etc!
if some people can't add 1+1 together, sorry it's not that hard!!
or maybe i'm just a incredible genius i don't know, maybe someone can tell me!? lol :laugh

yes it's not the usual ravioli ravioli give me the formuoli for an album release, BUT if u have an open mind, maybe u can see the things from different perspectives...!?

well my point is that people or let me call them "fans" always being negative about anything!
for example:
artist: i'm doing the same stuff over and over again!
fans: she's so uncreative, i want her to trying new things!
BUT
artist: oh look, i'm doing a new genre and style of music!
fans: omg crap, we want the old "insert artist name here" back!

and i don't need to put the mini album/singles thing again...
yes those are mini-albums...
BUT it's not the first time in history an asian artist put a song from a mini-album on a studio album later... #lookatkpopreleases

I mean god damn people here need to open their eyes :laugh Are people still gonna try and deny the streak thing? Cause if it was just a matter of being able to charge more every single artist in Japan would replace singles with mini albums. Doesn't work that way :no

Thank U and Thank U!!

Oh god. Well I could definitely see this coming. So glad I didn't buy the mini albums. It was obvious that they were singles, or at least I thought so. Avex is afraid to release singles for her it seems and then by calling them mini albums they could charge a higher price.

But geeze how did Avex not see that this is a bad idea? I can see this being the final nail in the coffin for a lot of people's fandom.

@artcika: Yes, we were under the impression it was going to be all new songs...

I'm still wondering if it was a translation thing.

Like maybe by "new" they included the "new" releases...although You & Me is still a mystery.

Pieces_of_SEVEN 27th December 2012 01:45 AM

^Yeah, especially that has no ****ing place on this album.

SURREAL__RAINBOW 27th December 2012 01:46 AM

I think You & Me was added just because of this stupid new trilogy

Obviously this release is somehow really similar to Love songs, I wonder if she'll marry maro when it's released

love in music 27th December 2012 01:46 AM

I actually haven't bought an ayu release in years because avex are greedy a-holes. Do not want to support them ever again. I think everyone here should just stop their collections now and download from JPS from now on. They've even got flac there.

there is a difference between something being obvious and you speculating.
thats my point.

and it has nothing to do with the amount of new songs.
its how the last two releases were handled.
when something is a single, call it a single not a mini.

~Support JpopSuki~ Freeleech until the 1st!


To the person below me, no. Hell no lol I hope it can reach 100k, but, I sincerely am doubting.

Didz-19 27th December 2012 01:48 AM

So...it all down to one thing...will you buy the album or not?

not me, **** that.

I will get it later on when I can pay like 5 dollars from some auction, or wait until it's 250 yen at book off in Japan

paper_doll 27th December 2012 01:51 AM

Is she serious with this title? And honestly, I really like the covers, but they look like Kana Nishino ripoffs lol.

I haven't bought an Ayu release in years, and this certainly isn't helping. I feel bad for people who bought the two mini-albums, but I feel like we should have seen something like this coming.
