Excite auto-translation:

Ayumi Hamasaki (25), a singer, made the attachment DVD in which the video clip of a total of seven music was mentioned by the mini-album "Memorial address" put on the market on December 17. Although the music representing Hamazaki this year, such as "No way to say", "ANGEL'S SONG", and "forgiveness", was recorded on the album, the work expense of about 500 million yen was invested, and the video clip of all seven music was made. making and commercializing the image work to album all songs according to the persons concerned -- a Žj top -- for the first time -- ‚Æ -- it says Mr. Hideaki Sunaga whose production is the popular supervisor of a video clip community, and Mr. Tange hŠó -- ‚ç -- charge Although each is finished in the individual short story work, even if it lets the whole pass, it is said that it pierces through one view of the world. For Hamazaki, it becomes the compilation this year which has put power into an image work. In addition, a jacket is what hammered out the golden gorgeous image, and attention is likely to be attracted also here as a visual work with new ‚_‚ä.

jerms 25th November 2003 09:24 PM

=\ after 10 minutes of trying to figure out teh title, i'm still blank.

:D its not too bad though. sounds like she's dieing. haha..and address? isnt that like..a speech? o.O? :laugh lets jsut see about this whole gold cover memorial address thign.

tanx jose....

syntherella 25th November 2003 09:30 PM

Aiyah... Mini-album... :: is crying ::

Thanks for the info!~ The title sounds a bit weird for an Ayu album, though. If there're only seven videos on the DVD, does that mean that 'theme of a-nation '03' does not have a video? I thought the music was nice company for a short story... I am pro-PVs!~

ImpactBreaker 25th November 2003 09:30 PM

I like the name "Memorial address". If it's really the official name, I won't mind it.

a singer and Ayumi Hamasaki (25) will put a set of two mini-albums "Memorial address" (all -- seven music) with DVD with promotion video (PV) on the market on December 17 By the trial also in the music industry in which the album with PV of the recorded all songs is the first, the total production costs of PV are Nantes and about 500 million yen!! It is likely to become ‚_‚ä‚©'s and others highest Christmas present. [photograph: PV of the newest music "No way to say." pretty ‚_‚ä of shortcut is impressive -- ]

"‰Ì•P" ‚_‚ä entertains a fan not only with the ‰Ìº but with vision. In the album for the first time in about one year "Memorial address", DVD with which PV of a total of seven music was recorded follows as a privilege. Originally, ‚_‚ä is known as an artist who puts power into PV. Usually, although it is said that per PV and photography take an average of 20 hours, in ‚_‚ä, it is said that the about 50 hours beyond twice are spent. ‚_‚ä which values an image, therefore this plan were realized. It is only the work with which what carried out painting to the face also by PV of this album inclusion, shortcut, fairy ‚_‚ä which attached the feather of a butterfly, the thing which made full use of CG, etc. were elaborate, and since the production costs of all 7 works call it the sum total of about 500 million yen, they are surprise. Of course, CD is also substantial. "No way to say" released on November 6 gains the 1st place of a first appearance with a cage contest single chart. The total sales of all singles became about 17,400,000 sheets, extracted about 17,240,000 sheets of ZARD, and danced and came out of them to the 1st place of all the past female artists. The memorable music of this is begun, two music of new songs is recorded on all the singles announced this year, and it is finished on the "best" album in the current fiscal year. ‚_‚ä "it made as an album like a Christmas present to everybody. various [ a video clip ] supervisors and photography -- carrying out -- SUGOKU -- since it was pleasant, I also want everybody to look at the pleasure of an image This album is carried in its hand and it turns around tour!! " and message. The big present of ‚_‚ä‚© and others who regards a fan as important is likely to monopolize year-end subject. * An addition further To DVD of a privilege, an addition further The digest image of the special live which consisted of only single music in October is also contained, and it has become a fan with the unbearable gorgeous board. A price is 3300 yen a tax exception. moreover, a fan without the DVD player sake -- CD -- (-- sale of tax exception 2000 yen) is also performed

The title sounds so darkish... -_-+
The cover is so nice, I love it...

If that's the cover, it's just too cute LOL!!! :):)

Unimatrix Prime™ 25th November 2003 10:15 PM

An interesting thing to note on the Sanspo link is that it mentions not one, but two mini-albums! Not sure if it's in relation to the DVD disc, but if not, then perhaps there'll be more new tracks on the 2nd mini-album than what we've seen so far!

sxesven 25th November 2003 10:16 PM

Such a catchy title... :rolleyes

Nevertheless, bring it on! :D

jerms 25th November 2003 10:17 PM

From Sponichi:

Ayumi Hamasaki (25) puts on the market two gorgeous [ a set of ] albums "a memorial address" of CD&DVD which attached the video clip of all inclusion music on December 17.

The highly-motivated album in the timing the total sales of all singles were at the top of a breakthrough and all the past female artists about 17,500,000 sheets by the new song "No way to say." This music under hit is begun and seven music is mentioned in "Greatful days" hit this summer, "forgiveness", etc. All the video clips of these 7 work are stored in attached DVD, and production costs are reached only with an image at about 500 million yen.

At DVD, it is "7 Change" with various clothes, such as a show girl, a devil, and a fairy. ‚_‚ä of gold is shining with the jacket of an album so that the gorgeous feeling may be symbolized. National arena tour opens on December 30. Hamazaki "the thought like a Christmas present by everybody, a fan, was put and made. By a video clip taking a photograph with various supervisors, since it was very pleasant, it is talking with my wanting you to see the pleasure of the image."

AznkidoOo2 25th November 2003 10:41 PM

wOot! Yesh..Looks Good ^^...Must Get:D

so..is that the bonus footage on the dvd?

Unimatrix Prime™ 25th November 2003 10:46 PM

Even more news, now from Tochu:

‚_‚ä, a BIGGU Christmas present!! It turns out on the 25th that Ayumi Hamasaki (25), a pop singer, makes the collection of image works of the total amount of 500 million yen used as the video clip highest ever amount, and records on the mini-album "a memorial address" of sale as a collection of attached DVDs on December 17. It is the first trial in the music industry of making the video clip of all 7 works recorded on an album, respectively, and "making unite" it, and the big subject also among fans is likely to be called.

As for this gorgeous DVD that is equal also to the production costs of a theater movie, the video clip of all the album works with which a total of seven music, such as a new song "Because of You" and "ANGEL'S SONG", is recorded is recorded.

For the album in which the DVD-ized video clip was mentioned, it is the first trial in history also at the music industry to record and put the video clip of all songs on the market, although put on the market also in the past. "‚_‚ä" which seven music of colors is different, respectively, and announces the performance of 7 change "the whole of this album was made as a work like a Christmas present through which it passes. various [ a video clip ] supervisors -- taking a photograph -- SUGOKU -- since it was pleasant, I also wanted everybody to look at the pleasure of an image -- Ž©Mì is advertized as " CD and the album in which Attachment DVD was mentioned are tax omission 3300 yen. The album of only CD is also put on the market and they are tax omission 2000 yen here. A video clip is the laborious work on which the photography time which two works of a new song are photoed from the beginning of November to the middle of the month, and reaches in about 50 hours per one was spent. As photography time of a video clip, generally it is called about 20 hours and the strong prejudice applied to a work is imagined. The world where no one but [ ‚_‚ä ] is visionary is developed for each work. Moreover, although "white ‚_‚ä", "•‚_??a•‚_‚ä, etc. had hammered out the color concept also in the jacket, fashion this year also made the album jacket reflect, and they imagined "gold" this time until now. Suitable gorgeousness is brewed to the collection at a cost of 500 million yen of DVDs, and "gold rush" unprecedented in between the female fans by whom the Christmas season this year was stimulated by ‚_‚ä is likely to be arisen.

From December 30, the national arena tour which carried this album in its hand starts from the first gymnasium of the Yoyogi stadium in Tokyo.

Actually, on all her original albums her name IS written in lower case letters:

RAINBOW is the same. I am... and LOVEppears don't have her name on the cover, but her name is written in lowercase on the back. A Song for XX is the only album that writes her name "Ayumi Hamasaki".

jerms 25th November 2003 10:50 PM

Unimatrix Prime™ 25th November 2003 10:56 PM

As I was saying to jerms, this may lead up to something soon... perhaps in January when the (possible) 2nd "mini-album" (assuming there is one) gets released, it'll go along with this current album, perhaps with new songs!

Piccolo 25th November 2003 10:56 PM

Thanks for the news update !! That cover is looking really nice !! Jerms, you are a dork.

The cover looks soo pretty.. so natural.. i was thinking about no getting this mini album but now... I'm getting it! i love it i love it!

mimika 26th November 2003 12:26 AM

btw...how come the title of the album is not on the cover? is this the finalized cover or just promo material????

~K+ 26th November 2003 12:42 AM

the name isn't always on the cover though, think LOVEppears and Duty

and A song for XX, it was on the side, but not directly on the cover pic.

jerms 26th November 2003 12:42 AM

mimika- a lot of the time, the title is on teh OBI or something. like teh daybreak single..or LOVEppears..

ayumi1121 26th November 2003 12:45 AM

I love this cover!! it's soo cute! The title and the cover doesn't seem like an ayu album...but it's really nice none the less!!!

mimika 26th November 2003 12:47 AM

so people lets be happy atleast is something...:thumbsup :wave

Ibitsu Kokoro 26th November 2003 01:06 AM

I doubt this is only a mini album people. The reason why they added the dvd is because of the lack of songs on it.

js_surrealism 26th November 2003 01:46 AM

Alright alright, if it's gonna be a mini-album, there's not a doubt that it's gonna be 8 tracks. Ah well, the heck, I'm not gonna see this as her 6th album but a mini best-album of hers for the year of 2003.

AfanforXX 26th November 2003 02:25 AM

Well, it might be a mini-album still. Just because a DVD is added does not mean it's an album. To say that would be to say that DAI's past couple of singles have been albums. I think the content determines what type of album it is.

Also, day after tomorrow released 2 mini albums in 2002 each with like 6 songs on them, they were priced 1800 yen each, that's only a 200 yen difference from Memorial Address(version without DVD).

jkm444 26th November 2003 02:31 AM

the cover looks nice, but i don't like the title of the mini album It sounds like ayu is going bye bye ( which i hope not). I am happy that this is not going to be her 6th album.

tetsuo69 26th November 2003 02:33 AM

well.. have you look at HYDe new album 10tracks...??? DVD also

MTRLevolution 26th November 2003 03:07 AM

awesome cover!! i dig it. the name is ok, i guess. i'm just excited that there's a new cd with all kinds of cool stuff on it! w00t!1~

lol people youre driving jerms up the wall. ill say it, i dont think its an album! its a mini album! :P

shunjuu 26th November 2003 04:46 AM

Ok everyone needs to chill out hehe.. i think this is just another one of avex's marketing stunts. I don't think ayumi would do this to us. Just kinda completely abandon her career..what a joke..but yeah.. I think that they are just doing it cuz they know we are gonna love the cover and that everyone is gonna buy this CD cuz it's got the PV's so why not make a mini album..and re-release the same songs on a full album later. EVIL TRICKS! hehe..but I'm soooo gonna get sucked into their plan..cuz like i said. I love the cover and I want the DVD. heheheh. CAN'T WAIT!

Nu-NRG 26th November 2003 04:47 AM

memorial address...........don't like it....sounds like the last one.....and the cover.....err...-.- ayu looks like she's ill.....

jerms 26th November 2003 04:49 AM

:D I LOVE U EEVEE! *on knees kissing her feet*


(seriously, you guys are repeating it over and over and i'm getting naucious!)

Larisa-chan 26th November 2003 04:50 AM

Wow... Ayu looks so different in that picture. Her eyes are so haunting! It reminds me of A Song for XX in a way, where her eyes were the main focus of the picture.

And the song title is making me nervous.. I hope she's not going away ;.;!!!

shunjuu 26th November 2003 04:52 AM

As for her new look..i think she looks like her old self..like from Appears. Especially if you look at her perfromance on HEYHEYHEY. Totally! hehe I love it!...Although I wish we knew for sure if she actually cut her hair short..and now it's grown..damn I liked it short! hehe

Squally 26th November 2003 04:55 AM

realli wierd name (o.O)...but oh wells, I'm still getting it. AND I LOVE THE COVER! XD

Unimatrix Prime™ 26th November 2003 04:59 AM

I remember when I was talking with jerms about the album before there was a cover pic, and I said this:

Omega Prime2020 (3:35:54 PM): i could imagine ayu wearing a golden gown, kinda overlooking a castle or something...

Obviously not the exact image, but I'm quite curious about what the booklets will show. One of the translations mentioned that there'd be 7 "themes" , representing pics of Ayu as a fairy, devil, etc. ... quite the interesting concept this year ;)

jerms 26th November 2003 05:00 AM

:laugh and i said i imagined it like duty, only instead of everything leopard, it was gold o_o and she's wearing a silky gold somthing with long straight golden hair. o____o

mimika 26th November 2003 05:16 AM

so wat does memorial address means?

HA! *feels 10 ft tall* lol j/k anyways,

When I read the album would have a gold theme, I imagined a gold ayu. I dunno castle or something. But I like this picture a lot better, even tho it doesn't really look like her ^_^;

Not too sure yet...I'd imagine it like Ayu giving a speech to a crowd (or in this case, her fans), so perhaps with the lyrics of Angel's Song/Because of You, a new PV, or maybe the booklet in the album, we'll know for sure where the title came from ;) !

Nu-NRG 26th November 2003 05:47 AM

btw before i found out the title of the new album........this site mentions that the new album was call Anniverth....few fans thought aniverth is another ayu's word Anniversary + Birth = Anniverth
but i'm glad that isnt' the name.....it wud be a funny title....imho

*mouth drops* She looks HOT. And I don't say "hot" at all.

Wow. She's great-looking normally but this is a great picture...

Not much else to say. Wow. Impressed.

Shiso 26th November 2003 10:43 AM

Hmm.... I don't really know if I like the cover.... I must get used to it and then I'll surely love it :P

But the title rocks!

Avex have finally updated Ayu's site confirming what we already know, and letitng us know the title of the bonus track which is "Memorial Address (take 2 version)".

Check it out: http://www.avexnet.or.jp/ayu/info/memorialaddress.htm

Not crazy about the name, but I like the cover pic... I'll definitely be getting this for Xmas... I hope there's a CD/poster set for it....

nmskalmn 26th November 2003 12:21 PM

Finally confirmed. Thanks matt.

I'll consider this release a PV collection with a bonus CD rather than her 6th album. Makes me feel better :laugh

js_surrealism 26th November 2003 01:21 PM

Oh yes, it makes me feel ALOT better, plus there's the A Museum Tour footage, so I'm somewhat alot more pacified now.

gakkun 26th November 2003 01:22 PM

The title's great!~ Sounds very Ayu.

I'm not sure what to think about the cover...it looks similar to the ASFXX one but she looks...ill. The gold colour doesn't exactly help it either...while her eyes in ASFXX looked innocent, this time they look battered and weathered...albeit more mature. IMO.

btw, Avex is really getting on my nerves right now. If they could make RAINBOW in less than a year then why can't do the same again?? And Ayu had less performances this year...ahh!! I want this album for xmas...but if the songs are going to be on the 6th album (if there is one) anyway then I wouldn't want to waste money on this one...I don't know, a mini album just isn't appealing, heh.

btw, has Avex confirmed that it's a mini-album and not an album?? Just curious. The definitions can get cloudy...

I don't care for its sales. I just hope it's good. I think that's somewhat more important.

Yes people it's a MINI ALBUM. Damn right. A MINI ALBUM. Not a normal, a MINI ALBUM. MINI ALBUM. Read my lips: MINI ALBUM.

Biscuitgirl 26th November 2003 05:10 PM

I still wonder about all of this. Doesn't anyone think the title is a bit odd? I mean, we aren't getting many new songs, and she just had her "Museum" thing. The title "Memorial Address" makes me wonder if she's quitting soon...

I still think that the 2nd one will have some new songs (and maybe an old song or 2, like "theme of a+nation"). And quite possibly, this could be like what happened with the song "Rainbow" ... how it was incomplete at first, but was soon completed in time for the album. The "take 2" of Memorial Address could be an unfinished song, or maybe it's just 1/2 of the full Memorial Address (seeing as how it says "take 2"). Or... it could just very well be a random name for it :laugh
