what i want is when 50th single is out, Ayu will release some kind of Box Set like Britney Spears & Girls Aloud. A box set which contains all singles! all b-sides & remix (of a single) on one CD!

A Museum II!! It would be great if she performed all her singles in a single concert (of course, some of them in medleys because nobody can sing 50 songs one after the other lol)

A COMPLETE part II? :D
lol no she isn't Kuu.

I don't mind at all what she will release, I want something AWESOME.
But the A Museaum isn't so bad idea :yes

Ayu isn't the first artist to release over 50 singles. A group named THE ALFEE has released their 59th single last year xD

[1] Do you think that 2010 is remarkable for her?
I...... kinda don't hope so. I hope she will go back to the style she had about Secret-GUILTY area (not music style, but performance and so..). Off course, a 'comeback' would be great, but I don't expect that. So I hope she will just drop the at09 style and get 'normal' XD

[2] What do you expect in her 50th single?
I hope it will be rock songs, as I just don't really like ballads as You were... with her 'new' voice.. IF it's gonna be a ballad, I want something more as Together When...!

[3] If the releasing pattern is not the same as 2009, when do you want her 50th single to be released ?
I hope it can be a fall rock-single!

[4] What do you expect in her new album?
Rock and big ballads (I don't say that I only like things like GUILTY album, but seriously, I won't like too many ballads where she's singing as You were...)

[1] Do you think that 2010 is remarkable for her?
Well, NL was electro-inspired, but she did that before. But she had never done anything like Sparkle, which I love. She also released her ugliest Single cover to date, and released an album with practically no promotion (as compared to others) so yes it will be a memorable year.

[2] What do you expect in her 50th single?
I can say that I dont want another No way to say/Together when/ You were clone. Shes very versatile and can cover alot of genres so anything goes but I would really like a return to remixes on singles like Rule/Sparkle. She has some AWESOME remixes and it really makes buying singles worthwhile.

[3] If the releasing pattern is not the same as 2009, when do you want her 50th single to be released ?
Whenever she is done touring and resting so that it is not rushed.


[4] What do you expect in her new album?
How about some CREA?

I'm only concerned about her vocal actually....

Is this year the year in which she smashes Seiko Matsuda's record? :)

[1] Do you think that 2010 is remarkable for her?
Maybe. Something like PCDL that much more special.

[2] What do you expect in her 50th single?
A collaboration with DBSK??? That will amazed me so much!

[3] If the releasing pattern is not the same as 2009, when do you want her 50th single to be released ?
Around February or after April. I don't really mind that. As long as I've got money on that day, it is awesome for me.

[4] What do you expect in her new album?
Something special that not only her Japanese fans would get. How about a free towel and not a limited. It'll be great! About the songs, I'm not really mind. But I'm hoping a more rock-ish or songs that we can dance along with.

[1] Do you think that 2010 is remarkable for her?
Well to be honest, I don't think so. She has been gradually reducing her release schedule to make way to her tours. It's nice to connect to her fans but in the end she doesn't seem to be interested in anything else. But well who knows..? We might be surprised :)

I hope she will take some time to take vocal lessons and she'll take care of her voice. Also am I the only one who wishes she'd be reunited with Leslie Kee? Their photographic collabs were the best :)

[2] What do you expect in her 50th single?
Well if she goes down the safe route she'll have a ballad single to thank all her fans and a load of first press goodies. Hopefully she won't do that.

[3] If the releasing pattern is not the same as 2009, when do you want her 50th single to be released ?
A summer single like H or & would be perfect but who knows if Ayu can still pull those off?

[4] What do you expect in her new album?
Ballads and rock songs are probably going to be her focus, unless she chooses another route. I hope she'll do something exciting and won't rush this one as she usually does.

Koda might beat her to the 50th mark xP

But actually she might not release the 50th single this year, she could simply do 2 singles before the album, which is what she has done so far.

Secret: Startin', Bluebird
Guilty: Glitter, talkin' 2 myself, Together When.. (digital, didn't count)
Next Level: Green, RULE

This: Sunrise, You were

So unless she releases another one pre-album, I have a feeling she won't release the 50th this year.

That aside I want her 50th single to be either a stand alone single ala MW, or a quadruple single. Make it special! No kodakumi like whose singles are basically always tripe or quad singles xP

[1] Do you think that 2010 is remarkable for her?
I hope so...

[2] What do you expect in her 50th single?
A full english song :thud. Maybe a ballad of some sort

[3] If the releasing pattern is not the same as 2009, when do you want her 50th single to be released ?
If not this year then 1-1-11...?????. Great way to start off the New Year.

[4] What do you expect in her new album?
A little bit of everything, Ballad, Rock, Electronica, etc

Seriously?? Ugh. Girl needs to take a break. I want some good music. :(

I'm not sure about the album or the single, but one thing I am sure of is that after 2009, my expectations are so low that I'm sure I'll be ~somwhat~ pleased with whatever she puts out. I mean, 2009 imo had her worst cover, worst magscans, worst concert vocally, and more songs that I dislike than any other year in Ayu's discography.

I'm really not trying to sound jaded or bitter here, I actually AM seeing this as a point of optimism for the upcoming year. My faith in Ayu is still strong and (mostly) unwavering. I think she can kick ass again. I hope she will.

no, i mean a boxset like this

and like this

limited release as a collector item would be great!!

I really wish she would break the routine of coming out with a new album before every tour. u____u;;

If she's seriously going to have her longest tour this year, then she should just use some of the great songs she's already come up with. I thought PCDL was a lot of fun with some of the older stuff!

I don't think 50th single is all that important this year. There's no point rushing to it. I don't want her singles to suck anymore =____= I think You Were.../BALLAD was the best since MW, I hope she keeps doing great work from now on and not keep going downward.

[1] Do you think that 2010 is remarkable for her?
Well 2010 has barely started for her. Considering the singles in 2009 for her next album... I wouldn't say it's "remarkable". Decent probably, but with Sunrise's cover... ugh hell no "remarkable".

CDL 09-10 was entertaining though, I would give her that. I just hope she would rest her voice... I felt like she's driving herself against a wall by deciding to do "longer tours" this year... it's oxymoron in a way, but oh well, it's her decision.

[2] What do you expect in her 50th single?
It would be great if it's gonna surprise us... Mirrorcle World was a good example. So yeah, something like that, I guess.

[3] If the releasing pattern is not the same as 2009, when do you want her 50th single to be released ?
Well most likely, it's gonna be the same, no? :P 2 singles before a new album again... so predictable, but oh well. Ideally, I want the 50th single to be released on April 8th, 2011... just for the sake of it.

[4] What do you expect in her new album?
So far, for this new album, we have:

Sunrise
Sunset (assuming it's gonna be in)
You were...
BALLAD

I'm expecting:
4 interludes
2/3 "rock" songs
another ballad
another gross-cutesy pop song (think along the lines of EnergizE... ugh)

BUT I wouldn't mind all that, if she changed her musical style to something like MY STORY again. Oh God that was her perfect album.

I agree with this post at almost all...:yes

I have a feeling that this year tour won't be anything special and so different from previous ones. I think that Ayu thought about the longest tour ever in more asian countries than in previous Asia Tours, when she said about it.

I really want new album... But it will be better if it doesn't appear fast. I really hope for 2 new singles, and later an album, in second part of the year (Maybe September?). I prefer to wait than get fastly a new album, which is bad and not thought-out. But, she'll have a tour, so it seems, according to my theory, that she won't promote the album by the concerts. But I can't see A MUSEUM II or something like this... of course, that title will be great, but with another concept. Maybe all single songs (from No way to say to present) with her well-known hits? That will be awesome.

I don't want another BEST... But it would be nice if she would release A BALLADS II *.* (wishful thinking? xD)
And yea, 50th single... will be released in 2011. So maybe have we to expect very special promotion and something like A MUSEUM II with A MUSEUM concept?:D


But, in the other hand... We can think about it and create many interesting teories. But nobody knows what will happen and we have to be prepared for everything:laugh
I just want to wish her a good year, with a creative work, voice lessons:P and many good moments.

I don't why she would necessarely release a "special" single for the 50th one.
She didn't make it for her 30th single, though she made the A MUSEUM.
Well, if she make a special concert or a single with special goodies, it's ok, but a "special" packaged single isn't a necessity.

But i know that Avex marketing campaign is devilish ... xD

[1] Do you think that 2010 is remarkable for her?
I'm sure it will be, she's been trying new things and I look forward to see how she evolves this year. :)

[2] What do you expect in her 50th single?
Something similar to Mirrorcle World. Not necessarily the same kind of song, but the massive promotion and really great music. First press, goodies, the whole nine.

[3] If the releasing pattern is not the same as 2009, when do you want her 50th single to be released ?
I'd actually prefer it be released in 2011. She's going to have a very long tour this year and most likely an album release coming up soon. Last year Rule/Sparkle came out RIGHT before NEXT LEVEL and was also included in NEXT LEVEL. So if she's going to pump out 3 singles, we'll have to get another single right before the next album. So I'd like her to take her time. An album and two singles this year and her 50th next year.

[4] What do you expect in her new album?
Spectacular music as always. I love all her albums.
