Umm..just to clarify the last paragrah, basically it says although Ayu hoped to win the Gold Disc award with forgiveness, it seems that No way to say, a ballad of similar style as past successes Dearest and Voyage, which were all released at winter time and made similar sales, has a better chance of winning the award.

yep.~ (was that a paragraph or a sentence? lol)

this isn't from hongkong...itz a taiwanese newspaper!

bu jie...lol, i lyke dat^^

LOL I know, the funnier thing is the how they call Hikki "Guang Mei", ayu's older while Hikki's the younger...:roflmao

yea personaly i don't like "Bou Je" make ayu sounds......old and abit rude too....
i like the taiwan version "Xiao Bu" or "Siu Bou" that makes ayu sounds cute and young just like nihongo AYU-CHAN :)
