Sorry, but I highly doubt that. Ayu's composers and arrangers and whoever else do not sit around using B'z as inspiration for Ayu's next rock tracks. :|

B'z are awesome and all, but they have nothing to do with Ayu's music. x_x

^ Uh yeah, definitely.

The new album is totally gonna be called:

"Ho Ho Ho, Merry Xmasu!!" ～for TA ONLY～

Hey hey hey!! I only said that they were INSPIRED by B'z... I didn't say that they sat around listening to B'z music for inspiration. Now, did I? That and I was only stating an opinion, not a fact. :irked (Geez, I didn't know I wasn't allowed to be optimistic... <.<)

if tk decides to be her best friend on this album i'm going to facepalm forever

I'm putting my money on that actually. They're gonna collaborate for sho :thud

a new winter ballad?

I think we already have enough ballads for this year
we need a new electro song! like sparkle/sexy little thing/last angel/rollin'

I want more songs like 'Last Angel' on the album.

and NO MORE BALLADS >_< RnR Circus had enough. Yes they're nice.. but just need a bit more variety.

^ i think that we'll have 1 or 2 new ballads,but i am sure that we'll have electro/rock songs :yes

I do agree with you guys. Even the people on amazon japan seem to be sick of ayu ballads. Someone wrote "baka-ballads" and stuff xD

It is time for songs that are rock, electro, up-up-upbeat and trance! We had FOUR CONTINUOUS ballad singles (You were... / BALLAD, MOON /blossom, crossroad and L). And Rock'n'Roll Circus, I use to call it "A BALLADS 2" xD

I am really looking forward to a heavier sound of hers! Startin' with ayu trance 4, please :tired

LOL She's not Lady Gaga and she's not Koda Kumi...

I hope for more pop on this album and very little amount of rock. I'm really sick of the typical rock song she has every year for these past 3 years to promote, I want something different. Last Angel was a step in the right direction and I really want more songs like this on the album. :yes

MOON feels very winter-ballad for me. Because from the begining it always reminds me of No way to say.

What I wish for (random order)

1. MOON
2. crossroad
3. blossom
4. Last angel
5. Sweet Season
6. Virgin Road
--
7. Intro (something NOT like from RnRC, something with lyrics, even not much, like Mirror, Catcher in the light, everlasting dream, Not yet, Bridge to the sky. But something like opening Run would also do for me.)
8. Interlude (tasking/taskint/Are you wake up?/LOAD of the Shugyo style <3 something rocky.)
9. Interlude (Disco-communication/JUMP! style. But anything similar to neverending dream etc would also be fine)
10. new song (something trancy, Last angel and Sparkle style)
11. new song (nostalgic ballad like HANABI)
12. new song (poppy, sth like STEP you/Startin')
13. new song (something ANGRY and rocky, like alterna, talkin 2 myself, Micro)
14. new song (something experimental and sexy, that would surprise us, like Sexy little things. Not the same style, but just something "fresh and new")
15. new song (something rocky-nostalgic like (miss)understood or It was, or Is this LOVE?)
16. new song (medium song similar style to Pride, or urban like ourselves)
17. + new song maybe (anything, but im 100% sure there will be song cute, medium song like Sweet Season/Honey etc...)

need sth like STEPyou!! and more Beat-Up styles,Please!!!
more ballads like Day,meaning of love would be appreciated for me
i hope there will less pop-rock songs like countdown,Last Link,Until that day but
heavy rock like microphone,alterna,About You i would be prefered ^^

I know we're all pretty excited but this "I WANT SOMETHING LIKE _______!" will be the death of all of you. It happens every album and then everyone is disappointed when they don't get it xD; Please embrace this album with an open mind and a clean slate. :laugh

You always say exactly what I'm thinking!

People should just go and make their own music. That way they'll always get what they want.
I'm just interested in hearing what Ayu wants to convey to us. I get the feeling it's going to be quite a peaceful, emotional album. But the singles never really tell us anything so all the album tracks could be like SLT or something :P

My wallet is going to suffer from this lol.

Hate for Days excuse me waaaa! I love this song!!!!
and I hate ballads and that's saying something
thanks you!

Basically, with the VARIETY of ballads and midtempo songs she has alreayd released...i hope for every new song to be different as well...and tgther, the variety on the album will be as packed as (m)u

This.
With all my heart!
Some trance, electro, pop songs with a darker feel. I'd be so happy!
The ballads we already have are enough for the album.
