I think I finally have decided on what to order...
crossroad jacket A+B and L jacket B+C. I fancy the covers and remixes of those the most. I'm a forever sucker for orchestra versions. :heart |
mmm I wanted and orchestra/acoustic for crossroad
o well cant wait to see the pvs for L! |
When's that CDData or whatever gonna start appearing? it should be out...
|
Im thinking im going to preorder Crossroad CD+DVD and then L CD +DVD B and L CD only C
>.< so much money!!!!!!! lol :P |
Hmm I'm kinda broke but I just HAVE to have the posters!! So I ordered a CD-only edition for both singles :) With the covers I like best, because I end up downloading all the tracks + remixes anyway for on my iPod.
|
i really want a poster of one of the L covers :( i really wish they weren't doing that collage thing for the posters.
|
The covers are interesting. I really hate Ayu's hair though. The track names are pretty cool though lol.
|
Wonder what the songs will sound like ^^ Virgin Road, Sweet Season, and Last angel... Why do I get the feeling that they all sound like ballad titles? > ~ <
|
^they do sound like ballads.
but that may very well turn out not to be true. we all know how hard it is to predict with ayumi. :yes |
I desperately want a poster as well!
Oh god. I'm so exciting now. I actually can't wait til end of september. |
It's so satisfying seeing all the info up there at once. I'm content for the time being... until I remember that we still have to see the PVs.
|
I really love Jacket C <3
and please, no ballads. Only Sweet Season please T_T |
Love the L covers, and that makeup/hair color is SO MUCH MORE FLATTERING then crossroad covers imo...
I like the light brown/dark blonde better :) |
am i the only one that is happy because they are not using the cover as poster?
as usual,i can't stand her big eyes on the big poster.it look like she's staring at me when i wanna get out of my room.she's like 'where are you going.come back~!' :P |
^
lol :laugh anyway more I watch L covers more they grow on me. My favourite is JACKET C and they look less creepy than the first time lol. |
Thank you, Ayu, for L covers! I could cry.

I love orchestra versions too which is why I want them on one, maybe 2 acoustic orchestra albums instead of strewn through every other single (although now a days it seems to be every single). They really like to milk out our money don't they?
|
CDJapan has uploaded bigger covers for 4 editions of L at their end a few mins ago

Cover C is beautiful, but why are her lips so HUGE? oO;
|
i love how we can see her red bracelet in these covers too

@KarenPang and LostHeaven thank you~!!!!
|
Good good. Another short version. Better then nothing but, he wont even have time to hear that he is gonna die during that short period right? ;P
|
omg I love the tracklist for L. *.*
|
This was directed by Takahide Ishii!
Hmm, so crossroad and the two LA PVs are by Masashi Muto and this one is the Ishii one~ |
can't wait for blossom short version <3
|
i assume that we gonna get the blossom PV soon~
|
It's kinda fun. Two days ago we were like 'STILL NO NEW ABOUT L, OMG.. WHY NOT? THE RELEASE IS ALMOST THERE.. WTF IS GOING ON?!"
And now, we have BOOOOM covers and a tracklist and a preview of one of the songs of L :D |
^ do we have another preview of L single other than the sweet magazine CM?
|
Virgin Road sounds the most interesting title to me :P
I am still torn to which versions to order, maybe I will end up getting CD only this time.....really unsure at the moment! |

|
Blossom just being shown on short version too?!
~_~ ugghh...i don't like this marketing strategy...i hope she will stop doing this... maybe her 50th single will get the same treatment too... |
^ but I guess it's a pretty clever strategy. This way no one will be like "oh, I saw this PV a dozen times already, I am over this single", so there will still be something new if you buy the single.

AyuGAME, blossom PV will be aired just tonight~ |
I hope we get these chaku-utas, we didn't get crossroad's :l
lol@blossom short ver. airing. Can we just have the L short versions instead :( |
Thanks AyUmIXx! I guess I won't look at L's PV short versions. I am kind of unsatisfied when I watch them and they stop so suddenly.

:laugh I feel the same way xD I always want more! |
^ hehe but after a week/2 weeks we gonna get the full version :)
at least, they won't make us wait for a month to see the full version XD |
^True haha At least we don't have to wait that much xD
|
The broadcast of blossom (Short Version) is for today
http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/5941/blossom.jpg |
I can't wait to watch the short ver. even though it's a ... short ver.
|
i guess i should be thankful for short version PVs since they give us a preview...but they're kind of annoying.
its like...just gimme the PV already! |
blossom's short version? YAY!
It's a short version and it's annoying, but at least we can watch part of the PV ^_^ |
I don't really care for the blossom PV
|
Comments on Virgin Road so far since it came out about 15 minutes ago:
- It's not rock, but a ballad! - Beautiful clear voice! - It's a key higher than usual - The lyrics nowadays are so lovey dovey, is she getting married or something? |
omgg ballad =.=
but i'll keep an open mind. She's really heading for A BALLADS II... I also had this thought that Ayu's in love hahah! So many ballads... |
wow.ballad!japanese most favourite type of song :D
|
Quote:
|
Ballad, hope it is good, i'm afraid of people's reactions...
|
ugh... well I love Ayu's ballads... I'm loving all her releases, and I know I'll love Virgin Road (sth really bad has to happen with me to not like an Ayu song XDD)
But I want rock T_________T Or at least sth completly different... a la don't look back, sexy little things, alterna... I've hopes for Last Angel... not a lot but LOL Ayu better add a lot of rockish, strange, fun songs in her next album... XD Anyway looking forward to listen to Virgin Road, hope it's a GREAT ballad! |
Virgin Road is a ballad?! O_O
i'm ballad sucker, so i have no problem... but i'm afraid fans that wants more variety will hate this... |
I hope someone records this time, since no one bothered with crossroad :l
|
Virgin Road chaku-uta sounds promising though very LQ xD SEVEN DAYS WAR is a meeeeh~
|
A ballad? :thud
That's two ballads already! My only hope now is... Last angel.... ;_______; |

The melody is REALLY awkward in Virgin Road. I hope it sounds better in HQ
|
What program are you all using to listen? WMP isn't working for me D:
|
Unconfirmed Japanese lyrics.

Virgin Road - it's really my cup of tea type of song...JUST AMAZING...ORIENTAL SOUNDED...DARK & SAD MELODY...STRING...really trully my type of song...i love it...can't wait for full version...
SEVEN DAYS WAR - MEH X_X BLEH X_X UGH...no comment, i'm happy for you who like it, but for me...no thanks! |
Virgin Road sounds very Asian, haha.
SEVEN DAYS WAR .. is amazing. I want these in HQ NOW. |
Quote:
|
Not impressed by the Virgin Road preview at all. I don't really like the other one either tbh...
I hope I will like the full songs better :/ |
Quote:
|
Wow Virgin Road sound promising!! Seems like and epic and grand ballad!! Can't wait to listen to it in HQ!! *o*
ah, and SDW sound bleh to mee now... hope the full HQ song changes xDD And also my last hope for a non ballad song is Last Angel... but... for which song is that high risk action PV she was recording in LA?? LOL not for a ballad right? XD |

Can you please upload it on youtube???I can't hear it in my iPad!!
|
I know I'll love the songs, but I just wanted something rock-y and upbeat...sigh
|
Virgin Road's melody reminds me an opera-ish melody.
It sounds like it will be one of the most epic ballads exist for now from the chaku uta. |
gorgeous covers I swear!

blossom PV is extremely disappointing, as I thought.
oh well, as long as it gets more sales for the single. |
Quote:
SEVEN DAYS WAR sounds exactly like I thought it would. Virgin Road chorus reminds me of MOON's verses lol. It sounds nice... Still wanted it to be upbeat... Or at least rock xD; |

today is AYU DAY!!!
my day is full of ayu new stuff 2 magz cover... 2 new songs preview 1 PV short version!! wow!!! and suprisingly...i like Blossom PV...i like what i see so far, it's not cheesy and flow nicely with the song, and i want to know the ending of the PV so much...JEEZZZ AVEX you are smart |
hmm... that's weird. YA is taking the money for crossroad and L out of my account already...
|
the blossom short PV was kind of pointless, we saw most of those parts in news clips anyway so there weren't many new things to see.
Virgin road = O M F G. so far it sounds amazing and very grand! perfect for her 50th single! SEVEN DAYS WAR = i can't hear much but her voice sounds nice Anyway, if "L" was an all ballad single, when it was announced wouldn't they describe it as that? I thought they did that with most of her all ballad singles but I might not be remembering correctly. Them not calling it a ballad single makes me think "Last Angel" will be upbeat. |
^i hope you are right identity!
and comparing Virgin Road to forgiveness is interesting as both of these singles are her big mile point singles. forgiveness was released as her 30th single and was a sweeping ballad. now Virgin Road is coming out on the 5oth single and seems like it might be another such ballad. |
SEVEN DAYS WAR: I canīt really hear nothing about the arrangement, so i will wait...
blossom PV: Really great and beautiful...i need to see it full Virgin Road:If it really is like it sounds, PERFECTION |
blossom PV is sweet =) can't wait to see it full!
|
Virgin Road sounds like BALLAD to me..
and SEVEN DAYS WAR..can't really make a comment about it.. I hope Last angel will be the rock-ish song! |
blossom short ver. isn't on YT yet? D: I'm too lazy to download lol.

|
^ i've uploaded to YT..but avex works so fasttttt...geee..
now I'm working on it again... blossom PV.. both are so cute... i'm sure the first half, it'll be the happiness, and the later part, the other half..will be the dramatic part hahaha XDD |
I LOVE VIRGIN ROAD *O*
|
Virgin Road sounds amazing!
I couldn't hear anything in SEVEN DAYS WAR's chaku uta xD And blossom's short version is... :heart I love it! :luv2 Can't wait for the full PV ^_^ |

Hm that's really weird. I would kinda prefer they'd do that atm, rather than jack up the price the last minute, like they've done before. |
If you preordered it at one price, they can't increase the price afterward.
|
OH MY AYU!
I just loveeeeee how Virgin Road sounds. |

Both song previews sound very nice. Sounds like Virgin Road's arrangement is verrryyy pretty!

I'm very sure. I monitored it very closely, and checked the amount paid from my account, since I was unsure after it became more expensive. This is very weird though. They did this with NEXT LEVEL, but not with R'n'RC. I'm confused now. Even more now that I can't find the piece of text where it said subject to change (maybe not literally, but it was something like that). I've been ripped off! lol. |
Everyone seemes so hyped about Virgin Road Even though I already had listen to it. Sounds like MOON/BALLAD actually. I love those songs sooo much so this one might turn out good.
But I don't want only ballads again... |
