Well, considering Elvis is d...

...Oh, you mean the guy who started this thread! Ohhhhhhhhhh.


Hmm... new songs recorded in Hawaii? Is it too soon to get my hopes up for something summery, fresh, and sunny? It's been that way so far... I think Hawaii could lend a certain atmosphere to the songs depending on the style. Hope it influenced her music a bit.

So I believe this means potentially a new single, definitely a new album soon (just not sure about it being by the end of the year unless she moves mega-fast).

Bold & Delicious.

Although I suppose arguments could be made for Pride as a winter ballad...

^Made me smile.


@Anthony - Aw, okay. I still think those songs are for the album though. I wonder how avex will make... I think they should have realized by now that releasing an album in connection with a single is a bit no-no :|... or maybe they earn on that anyway, because promotion costs will be WAAAAAAAAAAY lower even if the sales will be lower too.

People really should've remembered the avex honolulu-stuff.

Ayu recording in Hawaii.


Single basically was 'done' in Hawaii, I think.

And the album was 'done' in L.A. Sort of.

I was inactive when those news was new... haven't seen those at all :|

Thanks for bringing it up.

Yeah, It's okay ;D

Just saying. People who WERE here should've rememberaz.

Yeah!! I love it when Ayu travels abroad to do stuff.

I wonder is she shot PVs in L.A. I wouldn't mind seeing something like INSPIRE again except with more city stuff, but less than B&D. Man that PV was bad

God. Not INSPIRE. Love the song, but the PV sucked.

PV wasn't that bad.

The red hairy thingy dress and the red lipstick is just gorgeous on her :).

I like it too.

The AT05 INSPIRE intro sucks a WHOLE LOT though.

It doesn't suck that much. It's very.. adventurous. A word I've used to describe Ayu too many times. :p

You mentioned a Popteen magazine at 11/01 some time ago, I replied to that post asking about where you heard about it... but I never got any reply from you. Haven't heard of that mag release yet.

Well, it was mentioned on AyuLoveAyu that she would be on the cover for it :/


It's also in the news section of Ayuloveayu's site.

I thought it was. That red dress and lipstick looked horrible on her. Pride dress = not as bad as INSPIRE dress.

I didn't like the colors of the video. Or the costuming. Or the dancing - felt too slow.


It just seemed too off to me.

I think it looks off for many of those who aren't.. used.. to Ayu doing that.

LOL.

I mean, imagine Ai doing the same thing..
That'd be WAY off.

yeah... ayu looks quite pretty with that red dress+red lip in INSPIRE (the hair is not super good tho). And I like her dance in the pv as well. It's more natural compared to Real me dance... :P

so... what is this thread about again..? I'm kinda confused about recording songs in hawaii and LA..

This thread is about the songs she recorded in Hawaii..

thx elvis...cant wait to hear her new song...
from what i know avex has internation recording studio at hawaii..so its true

^They do have one there. Our very own HiRuNoKaZe was there and took a picture for us not very long ago :).

There should be one in Hawaii and in L.A, I'd imagine.

Or they borrow a Sony one like for (m)u..
