That's strange... I mean... I read somewhere Ayu's grandmother passed away in 1999 or around that time...

And Memorial Address is from 2004???

But if the song was about her grandmother passed away that would explane why she needed to cry at the AT03-04 performance :scry that was soo sad

Yeah, why would it be about her father, I read on pinkangelayu.free.fr that Ayu said: I don't even know if he's dead or alive

EDIT: I dunno if it's about her grandmother if they where very close, in the lyrics Ayu sings this:

Wondering the same thing...

HANABI means fireworks. ;D
It's japanese.

how it related to the lyric? the lyric is about hope and wishes, right?

indeed, it's strange :yes

all the lyrics can be found in the lyrics forum
plus, i think she mentions something about fireworks in the lyrics :P

Walking proud is actually grammatically correct, it is ok to say "i am walking proud" etc. so it is not so weird. the weirdest is kiss o kill for sure.

you know what title alone is weird? "ARE YOU WAKE UP?" like wtf? LOL!!!

but Hanabi, as fireworks, or in literal terms, flowers in the sky... i'm not too sure about how the lyrics and that title relates... hmmmmmm........ maybe it's a poetic way of saying how the constellation of the stars are like and on this specific night, they aren't there... i don't know.........

so in Episode II, she finds one at last and casts her wish onto that star, the beautiful memories and emotions that are within that wish are placed upon the stars and create a beautiful constellation that looks like a Hanabi................... i'm only guessing here though :/

btw, before anyone asks:
hana means flower
so hanabi literally means fire flower

IMO
HANABI I and II lyrics for me quiet related as seeing the night sky. Cast a wish on a star and some sort as if we see fireworks in the sky too. So it's some kind of missing someone while seeing the sky

OK, after I asked about vogue and WHATEVER

How about NEVER EVER? I'm still confused about it

anyone can help??

Well see, the song lyrics don't speak of childhood at all. She lost her grandmother as an adult and the line "the phone rang in the morning, breaking the quiet," when I hear that line I think of it as the bad news that some one died. She wouldn't get a phone call from her mother, whom she lives with saying "hey your dad left...oh he could be dead because you wont ever hear from him again!"

And someone else commented and made no sense and didn't really disprove the whole father/grandmother thing. "look at the lyrics..." uhhhh...no i'll touch them?

Yes yes, I agree about the phone ringing thing... but what would this mean:

I wish I could have heard from you
That I had certainly been loved by you
Only once, even if it had been a lie

HANABI

The "H" single was released in summer and refers to events that ayu connects with this season. (Except for "independent" which was recorded much before the other two songs.) "July 1st" refers to her day off (the birthday party, meeting friends) while "HANABI" refers to watching firework.
Firework in Japan, I think, symbolizes something beautiful, but short-lived - in this case it symbolizes love. Also firework looks like little stars on the sky...

Memorial address

I doubt that "Memorial address" is about her grandmother. It doesn't make sense. Because they had a good relation, ayu probably wouldn't have written about her:

I wish I could have heard from you
That I had certainly been loved by you
Only once, even if it had been a lie

You would only feel this way and say such things, when you have never known that you have been loved by a person. ayu's father left her at an very early age. She hardly remembers and knows her father, so she probably can't remember to have heard - or felt - to have been loved by him.
Maybe ayu longs to hear it from him - even if it had been a lie - because she wants to feel relief that he didn't left her, because he didn't loved her...

And also I heard that it's a traditional folklore that sometimes when you watch a fireworks, you can saw a reflection of someone that has passed away.

i dont know to about never ever, and ever free... ?
and what the meaning of Haru yo, koi ?

waaahiyak.... so many confusing title... ( IMO lol )

Are you asking about the title in Indonesian? I can explain that if that is what you mean.
Oh, Haru yo Koi means Spring Love (Spring, as in seasons).

as i know Haru yo Koi is not a song written by ayu, so its not so much related with ayu

what about kanariya, is it also japanese? what does it means?

"kanariya" means "canary" ;) Here's the lyrics (that I remember):

"The canaries didn't cry, Not because they couldn't, They just didn't"

something like that xP

canary? i remember there is a crow in the music video, and not canaries, what was that all about? so confusing, neh?

It's not a crow. I believe it's a canary.

doesn't look like a crow to me...

I also think it's a canary
