Part of me believes she's going to surprise release this but who knows. I just think it's odd to tease lyrics to a new song each day and then....that's it? Nothing else? It would put such a damper on the hype, for me at least. But who knows with Ayu and her team and what they're up to lol

Nice! Classy and Japanese but I hope it's not a studio shoot. She has not been having an outdoor shoot since... Love songs? She needs to drag her whole shooting team to get some natural scenes eg. Mt. Fuji? XD

I just want an album cover without ayu on it xD Would be good for a change. White background with a red circle and small black letters in the right corner "MADE IN JAPAN".

and small black letters "made in China" at the back cover xD

^LOL sad but true

lel, first thing that came to my head was Destiny's Child's Survivor.

But those are some sad lyrics, omg

loving all the lycris so far :) excited for the new album

Survivor was a rumor from the album I am... Rumor has it she wrote a song called "Survivor" but replaced it to "still alone"

I am happy with the title!

Wait a sec, we discussed this old rumor here only few weeks ago.. and the discussion was only here...

I hope our arguments and debates did not give her inspirations to write the songs in this album. LOLOLOLOLOLOL

Hi ayu!

Who do you think she is, utada? :P no wayyyy.

I'd love if the cover had various designs of her representing Japanese style through the decades.

don't expect too much. To lost good opportunity is so like ayu

Just saying she doesn't need to be on the cover and itcan still work :yes

So much of "Hamasaki Ayumi" is her image though. A lot of her branding was based off it in her early days as well. Utada was never about her image cause she was never all that appealing.

she even used Feel the love / Merry-go-round picture on Pray single right after she promoted Ftl /Mgr with same picture on CDL13-14 so i bet she uses every single shots taken. maybe she gives us one of her selfies "oh i haven't released this selfie taken in january 2015 i'll put this on cover" :D

I'm fascinated by the direction she seems to be taking lyrically, just judging from the first four lyric snippets. But god, I hope she delivers sonically.

The lyrics previews are small, but are all great. I'm looking forward for this album's lyrics.

omg :roflmao

Maybe we get a song a day until arena tour...

This is awesome!

Guys we should treat good ideas to ayu and let her know that it's not ok to recycle another numero shot for album visuals

That fanmade cover looks great in my opinion, I wouldn't mind if the actual one turns out to be similar to it, although a more conceptual cover shoot would be very much appreciated.

As for the lyrics, I'm loving the direction it's taking, I'm definitely hyped about this album, I honestly think ayu will deliver this time :)

id love to see 4 complete different covers (even from different photoshootings) for the different versions.
