Moments... I don't get kids turning into dolls... what could they mean? And her soaking/bathing in that chocolate thing... blood? I don't know...

walking proud... I just don't get it, except for the last part, where she became a cyborg too. Maybe she gave up "something" and thus became that cyborg, whatever that "something" is?

About You... I think it appears to be some parody of her past album covers (look closely; there's a guy who looks like I am..., and a half-naked woman which reminds me of LOVEppears), but there could be something more; like her getting trapped in that cube.

I def. agree with moments...i never figured that one out either

What's with the bright corridor, the dimly lit hotel rooms, ayu's neon-purple dressing, the creepy victorian-dressed ladies in strange rooms with strange decor, then there's the part where she's like hitler or something and people are marching..?

hm, i think she looks more facist if you ask me. Doesnt look nazi to me

I think the basis of the PV is an interpretation of the music industry. They take advantage of singers dreams of becoming a star and turn them into machines for making money until they are no longer profitable. This is what I interpreted after seeing Ayu open the letter saying "CONGRATULATIONS! YOU ARE THE STAR!" and her all excited, even during the questionable meeting with the freaky clown that doesn't look trustable. Her torso on the mini-stage dubbed "The singing machine" with the clowns taking photos and newpaper prints of the "Best Hit Singing Machine" suggested the music industry's high level of advertisement to maximize revenue. Then her torso outside the appliance store (act labeled "Garbage Dump") is a reflection of what the industry does after the talent runs out, throws them away like garbage.

yeah thats the way my friend explained it too.

Moments- I have tried again and again and again to find the meaning of this PV, but I am just at a loss (x_____x)

walking proud- Again, at a loss :dead2

alterna- I kinda get this one, with the company tricking the girl into working for them, and they over-worked her, and when the new star came along, she was "thrown away" (figuratively speaking, but in the PV, literally). I seriously don't get the parts with the white room and Ayu dressed all in white, though. And the eyeball?! I have no clue XD

You were...- I get the parts with just Ayu in the big dress with the road and cardboard trees, but I just don't understand the neon StarWars people (I don't know what else to call them XD)

Ladies Night- Seriously...what's happening here? :laugh

1 LOVE- I just don't see what's going on here XD I did an interpretation of the lyrics in another thread, but it doesn't help me with the PV :laugh


There are a few that are super easy to interpret if you think hard enough though :D (i.e. BALLAD, Rule, appears, Free & Easy)

noisy_harmony 22nd March 2010 05:59 PM

definitely Ladies Night.

JackieRos 22nd March 2010 06:03 PM

Startin'

Moments, I have to agree is a little baffling. I can't come across any interpretations that are satisfying.

walking proud...this is a tough one but the world they're standing in is pretty robotic and 'fake' even though its beautiful. With everyone with that metal I think it shows that something in them keeps them from walking with their heads held high, so I think they tell lies to make things somewhat better. So many lies, or even few but from every single person, makes the world an almost fake place.

After the first chorus in the video it's like going through a metal vein through the ground. I guess this sort of talks about the life of the earth, representing what we do as what the planet is, but still made of lies. At the end of this vein or tunnel-like thing, is Ayu with the short black hair and covered in gems. I think this says that deep down, underneath all the lies and the things we make ourselves appear as, there's something beautiful and that's shining brightly.

Ladies Night baffles me I once had a thought of what 1 LOVE was on about, but for the life of me I can't remember what that thought was. It wasn't a full interpretation, just a thought. I should see that awesome PV again.

^ Oooooh, I like your thoughts on walking proud! :D

AngelSenshi 23rd March 2010 09:11 AM

It's just a rather rough idea though; I'm sure there's a bit more to it somewhere, I just haven't found it lol

Larisa-chan 23rd March 2010 01:48 PM

I always got confused by the PV Whatever. Like the scenes with the church and the little angel girl? I guess that the church burned down and the angel girl was wandering around and figuring out what happened, but why does she get caught in the barbed wire at the end??

I dunno, if anyone can explain Whatever, I'd be thrilled. XD

TITANIC 23rd March 2010 01:51 PM

Startin', GAME, CAROLS. I dont get what the meaning of the PV... totally have no idea. maybe they are randoms Pv with no theme

The HARDEST pv to interpret is MICROPHONE. Amen.

CHE.R.RY 26th March 2010 12:47 AM

Meh I have trouble interpreting most of Ayu's PVs...but that's mostly because I don't really try. I just enjoy watching them really...

freedreamer 26th March 2010 02:30 AM

Isnt 1 LOVE about this underground society selling away society rejects...I think it's more about how society displaces such people and also to not judge.

microphone 26th March 2010 03:11 AM

Mirrorcle World did not make sense to me until the last part when she was in the telephone booth. her facial expressions were strange.. but at least the song is great ^^"
