FINALLY!!! We've waited so long ;_;

How does a play qualify in Spotify?

A ONE was her FIRST album on the page so I guess people just played through it without realized a Bell was a interlude? LOL

Not surprised on Moving on without you, it was her most well received track on years (by non Ayu fans)

I think you have to play at least 30 seconds of it or half of it.

Guys there is a very weird "glitch" on Spotify...

no more words - BRENT MINI'S ROTARY mix on the Daybreak single is.. WORDS..

Whut?

I'm having a similar glitch right now! Pressed play on count down from Rock 'n' Roll Circus, and Spotify is playing the live version from AT2010.

De-lurking to say that the "glitches" are more than likely due to Spotify trying to match their songs to your local files. If you opt for Spotify to substitute in local files when available, it sometimes mismatches songs. That's how one user can have "WORDS" play instead of "no more words" and others do not experience this, or how live versions sometimes get subbed into the albums (I used to experience the latter a lot).

I believe this feature is turned on by default and you can turn it off in your settings.

Carry on.

What is this?

It is an instrumental demo that was released last night on Spotify and other music platforms. You can find it in the Ayu Downloads section.

Could this be a new song preview?? She’s been in and out of the recording studios.

Honestly, it's strange she/her team didn't release a 'short' version or preview with vocals? Why an instrumental?

It's a mistake as far as we know.

^ That does seem to be the logical case...but on the other hand, surely someone in her team would have noticed by now?

It's suchba mistake it ended up being on her summer playlists. :P

She is clearly trying to grab the fandom's curiosity to promote her next release

It's working too - I've noticed quite a few fans have commented on her Twitter post about the playlist asking about it/sharing screenshots. It is exciting, and does manage to come across as more mysterious as opposed to unprofessional imo.
