I don't think is that "rock-ish". Maybe more on NOW & 4EVA type instead.

RealLight 26th July 2018 10:08 PM

^ Yeah, there's definitely nothing rock-ish about it.

truehappiness 26th July 2018 10:40 PM

The heavier song is probably not revealed yet.

For the three songs it seems like these people are working on them:
Tohru Watanabe composing with Takehito Shimizu and Atsushi Sato arranging (arrangement is HAL like) - this is the song we heard first
Tetsuya Yukumi composing with Yuta Nakano arranging - this is the song from tour finale
? composing with tasuku arranging - we know nothing about this besides girl power song

AyuCanada 26th July 2018 10:43 PM

Maybe she is trolling us and that demo song isn't going to be on the album at all.

rainbow_smile 26th July 2018 11:59 PM

^ That demo song is the one she posted the snippet of on twitter/instagram, the one that features the lyrics from the Tower Records promo posters. And poetry reading had lyrics from that song. So I really doubt she won't include it

truehappiness 27th July 2018 12:12 AM

I will say that for this single song she's really pushing it in unorthodox methods. What's next? Morse code version?

If this is the way ayu approves the final master of her tracks no wonder they all sound like shit as of late, lmao.

"If the track sounds this lit through the speaker of my phone, it's bound to sound fantastic everywhere else too!!"

truehappiness 27th July 2018 12:42 AM

I wonder if she went on a walk with Timmy and was like... Lemme give them a taste or something of it.

Also curious how long she's had the finished versions on her phone or what other demos are in her music apps, lol.

Furthermore, is Ayu bloated because of her period? Because of fillers? Is it muscle? Is it a bad fitting outfit? Or is just fat? Dr. Drew is in to tell us the science behind it all because that's totally necessary at this point considering how much it's being gossiped about in the other thread.

All that and much more, folks! Keep tuning in!

Lol like yeah hw contributed to this.....by letting them borrow his watch LOL that wiuld be a total "fuck you" if that's the case lol

indigochild 27th July 2018 03:09 PM

I'm getting some 90s/early 2000s punk garage band vibes with that little snippet.

I'm not mad about it.

Aderianu 27th July 2018 03:13 PM

Well, at least one song sounds interesting

freedreamer 27th July 2018 03:22 PM

im hypeddddd THIS IS THE TROUBLE WE WANT

ayumint 27th July 2018 03:53 PM

It sounded Lady Dynamite to me
Maybe this is girl power song ahe mentioned earlier

summerain 27th July 2018 03:56 PM

I guess this is the song called "W". W could mean "double" but also could be from "woman/women".

roxaskh2fm 27th July 2018 04:10 PM

YAAAAAAS
Love this new snippet! <3

surrealA 27th July 2018 05:01 PM

It seems Ayu is really into punk rock lately. I hear some references in FLOWER and now in this new song.

Irish_Ayu_Fan 27th July 2018 07:40 PM

Lol it turns out to be the 20th anni version of Warning ��

I was just joking because of the lalalais but that works too hahaha

Teppei-chan 27th July 2018 08:18 PM

Ayu should stop teasing up like this and give us a higher quality preview. But I guess she is doing everything right, because it builds up so much hype. For now I like what I'm hearing

Lonely_Marionette 27th July 2018 08:40 PM

It's not much but I am liking what I hear from the two short teasers she's posted so far. So hyped for this relase!

Party_King 27th July 2018 09:31 PM

Ahhh! This little teaser is all I needed for this release! <3

EndOfTheWorld 27th July 2018 10:01 PM

There isn't really enough song there for me to really judge it but it sounds like it could potentially be my favorite song from the album. I hope it isn't like WARNING, I loved that song but these i'm tired of it. The preview actually reminds me of the early or mid 2000s rock.

Lol. Why stop there? We should get a 20th anniversary version of Thank U too. More lailailailalala than we can shake a fist at!

Also, loving the production quality from these two clips so far. It sounds like Ayu has actually tightened things up. Between this and covers, this is actually shaping up to be a quality release, even though it only has five songs.

truehappiness 28th July 2018 08:02 AM

Her go to for these kinds of songs tends to be Kazuhiro Hara so I wonder if it's him + tasuku for this song if not tasuku + tasuku, lol.

She was always influenced by rock. Every album has at least one track that has heavy e.guitars featured. And i'm living for that sort of Ayu.

Aga-chan 28th July 2018 10:43 AM

^
summerain is specifically talking about punk rock, though.

I'm not going to listen to any previews, since I heard two of the five songs.

I have to say, though, I really like the title TROUBLE and I thought it'd be great if there was a song by the same title. ;o; Will she ever go back to having title songs? That used to be the norm. With some releases, like FIVE and sixxxxxx, I don't mind, but I'd really like songs titled Colours and TROUBLE. Well. ;_;

BlackSilence 28th July 2018 12:30 PM

It's not far off anything else really just less polished. Ayu's stuff is usually polished more than what punk rock sounds like. I can only name a few really that would be raw enough to be punk. Not yet sure about the new one though.

pepper 28th July 2018 01:13 PM

The more guitars, the better. Well, I started to listen to her because of "strong" tracks like NEVER EVER, Daybreak. I remember hearing GAME for the first and I bursted into tears because I never loved a song that much. Last albums just had like 2 strong tracks while she should stick into that kind of genre. This track sound sickening.

BlackSilence 28th July 2018 02:09 PM

Yeah, i always end up absolutely in love with her heavier songs. She just nails them. Too bad they are offen less than few on the albums.

Corvina 28th July 2018 02:52 PM

Same with me.
Somebody in another forum said, she should go full pop-rock or rock instead of watering it down to make more impact and I agree so much. Made in Japan already partly showed, how it could work. Mad World and FLOWER are both fantastic.

Chibi-Chan 28th July 2018 03:09 PM

I always wanted a full rock album from her. Guess this will never happen.

My Story, for me, was always pretty close to rock album. It does have pop and ballads but the amount of guitars are pretty high.

I remember how we hyped about RnRC and it end up with 4 rock songs including the worst rock song she ever made :P i mean, Lady Dynamite...

Ashen Twilight 28th July 2018 05:15 PM

Was it ever co firmed that WORDS and WE ARE THE QUEENS are going to be on this album? Or is that just assumed?

Same. But I'm not sure if that's what the Japanese fanbase likes? She seems to more famous for her power ballads.

Yes, it is, but rock has a myriad of subgenres. I don't remember she using punk rock subgenre in her songs that much before (she flirted with hardcore, metal and symphonic metal).

Yassssssss

BlackSilence 28th July 2018 07:44 PM

Punk rock is kind of there in a few songs of hers (humming7/4 is one that comes to mind first). The snippet we've got from the new song, i can't tell, it's ridiculously short... punk is usually quite plain and raw in terms of arrangements and vocals, so i personally need the whole song before i can say anything *shrug*
And yeah i know you specified, but i was just saying that it'd be no surprise she be playing into another rock genre because she seems to have a thing for it. =)

Larisa-chan 28th July 2018 08:01 PM

Hmmm I feel like the album GUILTY has the most rock elements. Almost every track (minus some of the interludes) has like one style of rock or another. I know people might be like WUT BUT GLITTER???!!?!11?1 (Which is definitely a pop-rock song lol) But just looking over the track list, the first five tracks are solid rock IMO, even Fated is a rock-ballad.

I'll be interested to hear what this new rock track is like, though. Some of her more recent rock songs haven't been as strong as in the past, in my opinion. I don't know what to think of the 10 second preview song lol

ayumi_croatia 28th July 2018 08:33 PM

I'm not really an expert on rock, but IMO, she has some brilliant songs in this genre (GAME, talkin' 2 myself) and some bad ones (WARNING, Lady Dynamite)

At the end of the day, good music is good music.

yeah, Guilty have the same "guitarish" vibe through the album same as My Story. Plus she have the most 'raw' voice in Guilty which makes this album even more edgy.

//ABEST 28th July 2018 09:09 PM

i think i'm gonna skip this release completely, not even gonna listen to it :( she has not given me a good song since Colours and sixxxxxx (okay maybe FLOWER) but everthing seems to sound exactly the same to me :no i guess my 10 ten years in ayu fandom is about to end soon sadly

Amalgam 28th July 2018 09:37 PM

^ Girl, bye.

Anyway, I'm hyped for the album -even if its only 3 new songs.

KittyKathy 28th July 2018 09:51 PM

Me too. I can't wait to hear them, especially this rock song.

FoxyPinkGirl 28th July 2018 09:53 PM

Ayu posted this on her social media last night:

How did i forget that album i've got no clue lol especially the title track.

I'm kinda keeping my excitment down for this one tbh. Like the amount of material we are getting is sad but i sort of don't want to judge anything before it's even out. I'm REALLY bummed there are no pvs though, that upset me more than the fact that we're getting only 3 new songs lol

EndOfTheWorld 29th July 2018 04:40 AM

I'm still anticipating the release. I won't be pre-ordering it as planned but I will give it a listen online. I have high hopes for the lalalalalai rock song.:luv2

I would love it if she just did that with music videos from now on instead of having DVD versions. The she could just release a compilation of them later on. But I'm trying not to get my hopes up for any surprise PVs lol

I just noticed that she was broadcasting live at the same time on Instagram. So its now available as her current story

tenshi no hane 29th July 2018 10:49 AM

Damn the song she sang breaks my heart. Possibly referring to her ears getting worse?

輝く未来がこの腐敗の中に
もしもあるのなら君と見てみたい
こんな願いがまだ許されるなら
なんとかもう少し歩き続けるよ
こんな時代を

それでも未来は明るいものだって
君が信じていたいと言う限り
僕はここにいて 叶え続けるから
必要なくなった時にはどうか
同情しないできっぱり捨てて

If there's possibly a bright future
amidst this detoriation*, I want to see it with you
If such a wish will still be allowed
I want to keep walking through these times
a little longer, somehow


Even so, as long as long you say
you want to believe the future is bright
I will stay here, continuing to make your wish come true
When you no longer need me, please,
don't feel sorry for me and throw me away, without a second thought



* 腐敗 literally means the decay/decomposition of living beings after death, and figuratively means 'corruption/degradation/detoriation' (of a government, relationship, etc).

AJFmzk 29th July 2018 10:50 AM

She sounded really good and the beginning acapella part was really cool. I love how she really got into it but at the same time was pretty controlled and not extreme/overly dramatic, it fit for the song.

Oh my... now I understand why I have a tear in my eye when she started to sing. Ayu I will never throw you away!!!

Thanks for the translation.

This is for us, her fans, or maybe for Avex. Heartbreaking :cry

The song titled is "The way I am"

Well, that's track 5, lol.

That last bit is so sad!

輝く未来がこの腐敗の中に
もしもあるのなら君と見てみたい

なんとかもう少し歩き続けるよ
こんな時代を

それでも未来は明るいものだって
君が信じていたいと言う限り
僕はここにいて 叶え続けるから
必要なくなった時にはどうか
同情しないできっぱり捨てて

If there's possibly a bright future
amidst this detoriation*, I want to see it with you
If such a wish will still be allowed
I want to keep walking through these times
a little longer, somehow


Even so, as long as long you say
you want to believe the future is bright
I will stay here, continuing to make your wish come true
When you no longer need me, please,
don't feel sorry for me and throw me away, without a second thought



* 腐敗 literally means the decay/decomposition of living beings after death, and figuratively means 'corruption/degradation/detoriation' (of a government, relationship, etc).

This made me sad :vsad

I remember how we hyped about RnRC and it end up with 4 rock songs including the worst rock song she ever made :P i mean, Lady Dynamite...

Oh god yeah, lady dynamite was the biggest disappointment of her career for me.

Reading all this and knowing what WORDS is about is so heartbreaking. I think her lyrics are stronger than ever. She really had a lot to say (still bummed there are no more songs, but from what I have read now; there is a lot she is saying in these new songs.)

She may not give s quantity but with her minis I feel she definitely delivers quality. FIVE and Sixxxxxx are really solid albums and I think TROUBLE will follow the same path.

maxikot 29th July 2018 12:21 PM

I am really touched by the song, its lyrics, performance.

Oh damn, this breaks my heart! So intense... :cry

She sounds great in the Line live!
Tho I don't like the song that much.
And the lyrics...well, she sounds to me like delving in self-pity? At least like she doesn't value herself (or her career in relation to her body) that much. Don't really like that.

Bye bye!

Anyways, I just can't wait for the new songs, it may be short but hopefully I would be able to get great lyrics with the few songs we're about to get.

freedreamer 29th July 2018 12:48 PM

The sonng and lyrics and delivery was beautifulllll. What did they talk about in the LIVE?

EndOfTheWorld 29th July 2018 12:56 PM

The performance was so wonderful. Ayu's raw vocals sounded amazing. Perhaps Ayu is at her best in a smaller more relaxed environment to sing. This acapella version seems superior to the studio recorded version. The beauty of the song really comes to life in this acapella arrangement.
