I can't stop playing sayonara and summer diary. I am ALWAYS super excited for her new releases, but I can only remember being sooo obsessed with a few songs, to the point where I could not stop playing them. The last few were Days, Sunrise, and You & Me.

I kinda wish there was a solo version of sayonara though. :P BUT it's bearable...much better than other duets.

I love to have a villain that has kind of a normal Ayu look most of the time, but when doing her evil deeds she looks like from that PV. Thanks for the tip!

By the way, I am so excited to see people talking about NWTS's acoustic version because I went through a period of being totally obsessed with it. SO PRETTY. And fated on Talkin' 2 Myself was AMAZING.

Not including any classical albums, I'm usually not too into the acoustic orchestra versions. Give me an EDM or trance remix, especially of ballads, and I'm in love. I never listen to anything on ayu-mi-x 7 acoustic. Maybe forgiveness once in a blue moon. Some are done very nicely though, like Endless sorrow, Who..., Dearest, TO BE, still alone, NEVER EVER (from ayu-mi-x IV), Voyage, and SURREAL.

Who is Mariko Dayo? I see her following Ayu :D

^Never heard of her. Seems that she is a former member of AKB48.

(Also, I think we need a new thread already...)

...pfft. 2.3M followers...and for what. smh.

Mariko has always been a fan of Ayu. She mentioned it on one of her tabloid interview. She tweeted about watching Ayu's DVD as well ;)
