full song between Sunrise and You were... eh?

As if this album wasn't ballad heavy as it was =/

maybe it won't be and it'll be surprising :D~~~

^you think it may mean 3/31? so we may get the PV tonight?

Or is NEW CUTS not on on 3/31 maybe

But it is said that it is broadcasted from Monday to Friday -.-

so it may come out tonight?

I guess we'll see when the program airs if it shows up or not whether or not their date is right

either 31/3 or 1/4..
we're gonna get it soon!
can't wait!

Maybe he wants April Fool's Day to come earlier:lech:lech:lech

meaning of Love

in any case Slt's coming soon xD

and wow so meaning of Love might be a full song? I can see why she made Don't look back sandwiched between 2 interludes though; it's a very unique-sounding song, probably like GREEN in NEXT LEVEL. Though GREEN wasn't sandwiched, of course xD

^
woww with that very long lyric
i doubt that it'll be an interlude!
thanks for sharing!

It would be funny if there were no interludes at all, besides THE introduction lol

so instead of interludes, montage and Jump! would just be full songs without any lyrics whatsoever :3?

yep it is today
Sexy little things
NEW CUTS
2010/03/31 07:30～08:00

i actually wish there will be no interludes at all..
more new songs are nicer!!
please keep only the introduction as the introduction~

Yeeeeees!!

I'm not leaving this computer from 6:30 tonight till Slt gets uploaded onto the internet omg <3<3<3

WAH meaning of Love IS A FULL SONG?! omg this album is too much to handle...
thanks for the info btw..hahaha...
i wonder what style is it...Sunrise is incredibly upbeat, You were... is emotional...hopefully its a rock ballad

o dear...i gotta leave this thread already...lol...SLT is bamming its way thru

O_O meaning of Love is a full song!!
Really unexpected! This album's gonna be really really interesting :D

OMG OMG I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE SLT PV *___*

damn i got class tomorrow cannot stay back late tonite XDD hope they'll upload it by tomorrow

HEEEEEEELLL YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!

meaning of Love is a full song!! thanks ayuuuuuuuuu!!! I was right!! only the intro, montage and Jump!!! and teh 12 lyrics handwritten are for 12 full songs!!! *____________*

so happy, only 1 intro and 2 interludes!! I love how they are in the middle, this way we have more tracks one after another without interludes in between!!

meaning of Love had to be a full song!! I'm so happy!! I hope someone will translate those lyrics fast *-*


And THE introduction for sure hasno lyrics or maybe has some like Not Yet and Bridge to the sky??

wow, so finnaly, 3 interludes (1 is intro), and 12 full songs (7 are NEW *-*)

Sweet~~~ :love but typical ayu love song lyrics

^what are the lyrics aboouuttt????????????????

the "Ah-" makes me think of Dearest LOL

Hmm okay then meaning of Love is a full Song and Jump! not...
But it would fit a Song like MY ALL and Replace between Sunrise and You were...

Hopefully it's not a Ballad!
I would wish a new MY ALL / Replace!!

And are there Infos about Last Links ??

@walking.proud--^HAHHAHAH Thats exactly what I thought tooo

^
^^
^^
^^
^^

huhuhuhu, I won't listen to it until the full song comes out.
Nor will I try to translate it. :lech I know there are many good translators here. :P
Anyway it's about you and love. (laugh)

Interesting!!~~~ So meaning of Love is a full song!

Exciting, exciting, exciting!!

^It also reminds me of fated !
3 interlude, that's okay, this is the end of the Full-of-interludes albums :p

Last Links

wow now i'm getting more excited! only 2 interludes with 1 intro, perfect!

lol me too, I'm really lousy when it comes to translating lyrics. I can't make it flow beautifully in English the way masa can lol!! :P But I'll try the choruses to give you guys a rough feel of the song~

From the lyrics, it sounds like a ballad/slow number... But don't quote me...

thank you misa! from the lyrics, meaning of Love sounds like a "resolved" and happy version of is this LOVE? :laugh

^oh sweet *-* I think it's not like a love speaking of a couple love, just... love ^^ maybe is the love she feels for fans??

MY ALL lyrics sound like a Ballad too and it isn't one...

I'm still hoping for another MY ALL Song

OMG :thud unfair cos i cant undertsand it :D

nwey thanx Misa,reading the chorus i feel so warm and wanna cry,that's really deep and emotional lyrics :luv2

Yep, but lyrics-wise, Last Links definitely has the more inspirational MY ALL/Replace/winding road/RED LINE kinda vibe.

Hmm but after BALLAD a happy HAL Song wouldn't really fit

Yeah, that's why I'm a little confused by the lyrics. Oh well, can't judge a song by its lyrics I guess. :yes

Yeah that's right

We'll see very soon

Rough Last Links

Not sure if I did this correctly, because ホシ = star but I've never heard of 青いホシ = blue star before. Any native speakers help? :)

^
I believe it's OK to think 青いホシ = blue star (= the earth) in this context.

I guess ayu just wanted to use katakana to make it look different. ^^

The Lyrics are beautiful!

^wow it's so nice to call earth the blue star instead of plain "earth" "world" or "blue planet" ayu is so poetic *-*

(LOL it's noticeable how now I live only from lyric translations?? hahahaha all this keeping far from leaks is killing me LOL)

Ayu has used "hoshi" as the pronunciation for "chikyuu"(earth) before in evolution and A song is born so I think that would be it.

blue star sounds so pretty...Lovely lyrics.
the new son'g's lyrics definitely feel differnet

Last Links sounds really cute :yes

Last Links lyrics = :heart:heart:heart

I love how two of the songs that sound the most like interludes (count down, meaning of Love) turn out to be full songs! There are so many more new tracks on this album, I totally forgot about the singles...

Once it's recorded and uploaded

this album is quite wonderful. :) i pray time just slides away.

So when the Lyrics of the new Songs are out does that mean that the new Chaku Utas are out too?
Or will they be out in the next days?

omg last links <3

LOVE the Last Links lyrics, can't wait to hear the song

wow... GREAT lyrics!
Did Ayu ever say what type of song Last Links would be?
Like she said Sexy Little Things would be "swing pop with electro"~

^nops, I think the only full new songs without preview or comments about how they are are Last links and meaning of Love... then, of course, we also don't know how the interludes will be or how the new RED LINE will sound like ^^

yeah but when the Chaku Utas are out than people should already know how the Songs sounded like

:laugh thanks
I I knew that shhh

the Last Links lyrics are beautiful. poetic. i think my fav so far :)

I'm glad that there will be only 3 interludes this time. ^___^

And Last Links lyrics are soooo pretty <3

It's going to be a huge album from what it seems. =D

Mmm, so the 12 songs were not including an introduction! -adds to first post-

For the most part, everything that has recently come out has been posted separately from this thread. PVs and etc. have all gotten their own threads. The organization of the post sort of makes it so that if we start adding PVs/mp3 rips/lyrics/etc, we'd get super cluttered up, haha.

I should get to reorganizing it...

Thank you truehappiness~ : D
I really want to see the Tour Goods ;_;
So happy for only 3 interludes, this album is awesome. : D

I guess we already deduced this from the very start?

12 songs in lyric sheet random drawing -> 12 full songs -> no one would get introduction lyrics -> only 3 "interludes/introductions"...

Yay! Haha.

Chaku uta for these songs will release soon along with the chaku uta full versions of the songs we have already.

From the chaku uta page apparently:
See the Sunrise ref? haha. Ooki na ai wo!

yah! seems like meaning of love is really upbeat!

Where did you get upbeat from? Haha. It's probably a ballad.

You were..., BALLAD and Sunset... That's enough ballads on an album for me XD But that's not likely to happen....

"Overflowing happiness" causes my hopes for meaning of Love to die. I'm expecting Sunset~even happier version~, gr8.

Last Links has a bit of promise to it~~

[Overflowing happiness! A great love song wrapped in ooki na ai (a greater love)!]
Overflowing happiness, sounds for me like a upbeat Track about Love

The album seems to be 1/3 ballads, 1/3 upbeat, 1/3 other/rock, haha. (Out of the 12 songs, anyway...)

Ballads:
You were...
BALLAD
Sunset ~LOVE is ALL~
meaning of Love
[RED LINE?]

Upbeat:
Sunrise ~LOVE is ALL~
Lady Dynamite
Sexy little things
Last Links [??]
[RED LINE?]

Other/rock:
Don't look back
Microphone
count down
[RED LINE?]

RED LINE is the only one that's missing at the moment, haha. I wonder what she'll do to it.

... overflowing happiness doesn't necessarily mean upbeat imo. The "huuuuuuuuge / so / sakan dai rabu songu" thing makes it sound like it's supposed to be an epic ballad.

I'd say mid-tempo. There has to be something to transition something up-beat like Sunrise to a ballad like You were...

Since moL is not an interlude as we all suspected, it has would have to be something that still transitions from high to low.

It could even been a mid-tempo/rock ballad. Maybe something alterna's pace?

I'm not sure... they really seem to exaggerate the "love song" nature of it. If it weren't for that, I'd think mid-tempo. Let's see what the BBS has to say... -checks-

Okay, looking at comments:
- Last Links could fit in with End of the World or Heartplace from PCDL
- Dark orchestral melodies in Don't look back are present in montage[?]
- Jump! has some layered Ayu digital electro rock vocals with Ayu saying JUMP a bunch of times it seems? A lot of people like it.
- THE introduction has a feeling of a "LIVE CONCERT OPENING" or something
- People really like her vocals in meaning of Love and say it's a ballad with a strange/pretty melody

http://mb2.whocares.jp/mbb/u/threbbs/1288/

On the Secret Album we had BLUE BIRD ( Popsong ), kiss o' kill ( Rocksong ), Secret ( Ballad ) and all without an interlud.

So she doesn't need to make a transition Song between an Popsong and a Ballad

wtf implies that Last Links would be anything but a ballad? it's placement doesn't imply it's uptempo, it's lyrics don't imply it's uptempo, and as far as I know we don't have any comments about it.

The lyrics sounds like it could be something like NEXT LEVEL

So glad Last Links is a full song - was convinced it was an interlude. Thought it'd be a slow, nostalgic song but reading the lyrics it sounds very....sunny.

mi|kshake~

Apparently Last Links has a feel that could fit with songs like End of the World / Heartplace, so... replacing that.

This album is rather balanced. FYI, no need to get all catty about it, jeez. I even put question marks next to it because I wasn't really sure. [This sort of pushed me towards it, but it seems like it might a rockish tune? [A message of hope! You can live by loving!]]

- meaning of Love appears to have a HAL arrangement
- similar songs to Last Links are Liar and Endless sorrow somewhat
- the sabi / chorus of Last Links has a feel of the calm part of kiss o' kill
- Last Links would make a good song to listen to on the beach
- meaning of Love has a beautiful vocal... the song is like a "crunchy sweet" feel? Huh.
- Last Links is coooooool
- RED LINE's album version will be distributed by mu-mo
- Last Links' melody and lyrics are beautiful! I was crying!

My observation of meaning of Love:
The song sounds as though it's another take on is this LOVE? Especially lyrically.

"Surely... this feeling. This is what people call love."

this all sounds quite exciting ^___^

I was hoping for a new HAL Song no matter if it's a Ballad or a Upbeat Song

lol this is the best comment there :laugh

but yay new HAL's arrangement! *_*

- Lady Dynamite's PV / making clip has been shown on Zoom In Super and Mezamashi ...

"The PV is gay gay gay."

How blunt.

^ eh really, wow. thats ridiculous and kinda sad at the same time.

either way. i cant wait to see it

Was Lady Dynamite directed by... kaz?

^yes, it's the only one I think... Micro/SLT are directed by masashi muto (You were, depend on you....) and DLB is by another one, don't remember who, but did About you, or at least I read it somewhere here XD

hmmm, I'm so happy with Last links comments, seems like a rockish ballad (end of the world, heartplace, endless sorrow...) but the lyrics seem so... calm to fit in a song like those... also... the comment "great to listen on the beach" LOL doesn't match with the others...

and for meaning of Love... a ballad can also have lyrics talking about an incredible happiness... and for what Misa-chan translated she's talking about how beautiful is love between "you & me", I mean, every kind of love.

wow... I can imagien it before You were... talking about how great is love and after that the pain in You were will be more harsh...

OMG I thought ayu has kicked him away already...

I'm liking that meaning of Love is a full song. It could be a 'happy ballad', like Voyage? Or it could not be, and the transition into You were... could work in another level.

If last links is a ballad.. and meaning of love is one as well.. this album is going to something like 1/3 being ballads. Might be a bit much...

She kicked up away for photos.

Maybe my letter that basically said Shimoko was terrible did something... nah.

A comparison I made between is this LOVE and meaning of LOVE's similarity:

lol oh well
there was some guys weared like haado gay in the deji deji pics if I'm right :laugh so.. it's almost correct I guess lol

I can't wait to see the PV btw.

Well at least this time he only directed 1 PV compared to NEXT LEVEL where he directed 2 and shot the covers and booklet. =P

Don't forget that he took all photos after mid-2008 until early 2010.

NIGHTMARE.

- Shimomura san.... is... interesting... (about Lady Dynamite PV / PV making)

Shimomura san is kaz rite...? How interesting is he this time? I can't forget about the making of Sparkle, when he taught ayu to do a striking pose... That's :shakehead..

Yes, kazuyoshi shimomura.

And yeah he was so gay in that making off lol.
He's flailing too much.

I have no idea. People just said that this PV is gaygaygagyagyagyaygagaygay. Haha.

Okay, it doesn't matter if the pv is gaygaygay, if it's directed by someone else. Anything touched by kaz is disasterdisasterdisaster...

I just can't forget the moment when he smashed his hands and body to the red wall... He was even doing better than ayu in the pv. After that moment I decided to stop watching the rest of Sparkle making off.:headache

I love him as a director.

well.. if you are talking about the KAZ ayu always talks about, no, because ayu calls Shinomura "shimoko", KAZ (or Mr. KAZ) is the webmasted of Team Ayu website... he updates with new themes, wallpapers, anything... I think he also records everything ayu does and takes pics of ayu (the ones that go to her messages)

Correct.

Shimoko = Shimomura = Kazuyoshi
Kaz = Kazuki = Kazuki "Mr. Kaz" Okabe

I'm talking about kazuyoshi shimomura, and yeah sometimes I call him kaz as well. Of course I know there's another KAZ, but KAZ doesn't make any disaster at all :P..

so I guess we can expect the SLT PV in a few hours or less...? ^_^
