It's the shadow from the flash.

Maybe it's BECAUSE of all the controversy they're getting, but I can't get over how much I LOVE the concept and covers. I mean wow. :)

I am very enthusiastic about those shoes! Even when she's wearing almost nothing, Ayu has good fashion.

It does look like that except theirs a mirror instead of a hole

I read on another site somewhere they thought there was a man tied up, as you can see in the mirror on the CD+2DVD cover.

does anyone else see this?!!
woah.
:thud

omg I love the covers with the coloring in your sig~~


and that is SOME flash to create that shadow. It turned white to color lol

So we think the only interludes are taskebab and serenade in A minor, yes? That would be too good to be true. Lol but hopefully...

If we compare the old tracklisting with the new one, there are likely to be three interludes.

It looks like they really did lump them all at the bottom of the first tracklist they showed us.

And since she said she recorded 12 new songs...IF there are 3 interludes, one of them must have some sort of vocals, or there is a hidden track...

I'm hoping for a hidden track...maybe an extension of hbya like they did with independent+

It makes sense, but you think they would be that obvious?

I kinda think there's a chance that "Eyes, Smoke, Magic" is an interlude that separates the midtempo/rock section from the final two ballads.

^^I hate waiting and not knowing. LOL

And CDJ is getting lazy. amazon and YA put up the covers a while back and cdj still hasn't. le sigh

wonder when her official site will be updated...

Yay! One more day down.. can't wait for this, but at least we get driving hits 4 to tied us over for a week! which by then i hope it leaks...
CANT WAIT!

It is a bit obvious, but that's all we have to go on really. Plus they lumped all of those full tracks with PVs and so on at the very top of that list so... maybe they wanted to be obvious? I think that Eyes, Smoke, Magic has more of a chance to be a song than Serenade in A minor does, to be honest.

It's assumed that the "12th" song she recorded while in London was Happening Here which was only announced at some point after she came back from London. As much as I want her to have been talking about the album tracks only when she said '12 new tracks' it makes sense imo.

I would love for there to only be two interludes though. However, the last time she only had two interludes was (miss)understood when she had eight single tracks on an album.

In the bigger pic I can see some Louboutins on the floor.

Lord, I hope happening was not recorded... that would just be said news for me

at first i thought this made sense but then..Happening Here was supposed to for LAST YEARS HOTEL Love songs already but she didnt release it. Of course, there's a possibility she might be re-recorded it. but to me, to go all the way to London just to re-record a cover and one that was made a year ago just feels...weird

That would have been really cool, actually. I don't think I would have been so horrified at the CD+2DVD cover if Ayu was in the CMs just chillin' in her PJ bra...lol

I wonder how many lives she will do this time around? I really hope for at least 3! I am sure HBYA would be performed most, but at least one of the more upbeat songs should get an airing, too...

It's possible that they added the Timmy vocals while in London. (Though he joined her team in April/May of 2011 which fits in that timeframe for AT11)

I guess we'll find out when we get the album! Two interludes seems like much more of a possibility now. I WANT PREVIEWS.

I thought they said Happening Here was the official theme song for the 2012 tour?

^^yes, but hotel love songs was originally planned for last year...when the earthquakes happened, ayu changed everything up.
