Love that title :laugh

pommy48 20th November 2012 03:11 AM

Lol you know me and my bad puns!

Ok so little alan update...She is working on her next album/EP right now. She just finished composing her first Chinese song yesterday!

And AI made a little anniversary video for her~ Well the video will explain it :laugh

Bad Wolf 20th November 2012 08:43 PM

OMG I WAS THINKING OF THIS VIDEO THIS MORNING WHEN I SAW ALAN'S TWEET. she didn't mention the video lol but she talked about her anniversary and i just wanted to squee. i'm so sad i wasn't able to participate in it :c

eta: pommy this had me crying ;~;

TeamAyu2004 20th November 2012 09:47 PM

is the new ep/mini for japan or china?

Bad Wolf 20th November 2012 10:06 PM

China. Apparently she doesn't have a Japanese contract anymore.

TeamAyu2004 20th November 2012 10:19 PM

I knew about that... i just didnt know if she had gotten a new one or what...
wasnt she part of avex? just another reason to dislike them (if she was)

pommy48 20th November 2012 11:10 PM

Her only contract is in China now. I don't think she's planning on returning to Japan ever anyways.

@Bad Wolf: :laugh Is it evil that I totally want alan to cry when she watches it? :laugh

koumori 20th November 2012 11:22 PM

Lovely first post, Pommy! :)

Looking forward to new stuff from alan.~

pommy48 20th November 2012 11:46 PM

>_< I wanted to add like her latest appearances or something, but Chinese companies aren't like Japanese companies where they'll update the artist's website with what they're doing :thud

What do you mean by not returning to Japan “ever”?
It was Japan who made alan this far and popular, without avex trax's contract...alan wouldn't be no where near like she is, today. And...we all possibly wouldn't even know her.
You should be thank full for that...

pommy48 20th November 2012 11:50 PM

I never said I was not thankful to Avex. I don't even know where you got that from?

But there's nothing we can do if she didn't want to renew her contract with Avex.

TeamAyu2004 21st November 2012 12:21 AM

^ was it her or avex?

nah, it's not evil. you want her to be touched by what you guys did <3

and i think it makes total sense to say that alan probably won't go back to japan, at least not for a while. i don't know if she was ever really comfortable in that market, or with all that she had to go through to learn the language, live alone, etc. i'm sure she's nothing but grateful (as are the fans, of course), but i think if it comes down to her being able to sing AND be happy in her personal life, focusing on the chinese market's looking like her best bet. if music is alan's life, then her family must be a close, close, close second, and i would want her to be able to spend more time with them which might be easier if she's working primarily in china.

i won't pretend it doesn't depress the hell out of me, though :c "ashita e no sanka" STILL gives me chills to this day, and it's one of the reasons i wanted to start studying japanese, so i could listen to that song and know what she was saying without needing a translation. well, looks like i'll have to learn mandarin now for all that. :thud

pommy48 21st November 2012 12:29 AM

@TeamAyu: In many interviews, alan stated something to the effect of "If I renewed my contract with Avex, then that's at least another 3 years, but I'm not a little girl anymore, so I need to be careful with my decisions"

She really loves her family because she has said that she hasn't lived together with her dad since she was 14. Her mother gave up her job to look after her, so her family has always been separated since she was little.

:laugh The plus side of learning Mandarin is you'll learn more kanji...which is gonna be hell :laugh

Bad Wolf 21st November 2012 01:09 AM

aww, then this is as good a time as any to reconnect with them. i think it might be a great boost for alan's music, too. happiness and peace seem to be a great muse for her (but i could be wrong? idek).

lmao yes that's one of the major drawbacks to learning mandarin. SO MUCH STUFF CRAMMED INTO MY BRAIN, SO MUCH OW WHY. but that's not really that important. THIS IS HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU, ALAN. I WOULD SUFFER LANGUAGE HELL FOR YOU.

pommy48 21st November 2012 01:21 AM

Haha she still loves to song about love and peace! That's our goddess :laugh

Lol I was gonna learn Japanese for her, but good thing I don't have to relearn Mandarin :lech

Bad Wolf 21st November 2012 01:37 AM

PRAISE THE GODDESS ALAN~ :luv2

on the subject of her chinese music and growing career, i think it works also because she seems much more appreciated over there. that makes sense of course, on a bunch of levels (japanese music industry is the second largest in the world, acts come and go, alan's music isn pretty niche/atypical for an artist, etc... the list goes on), and it's just another reason that i feel like her chinese music career is bittersweet for me. sweet because alan gets a nice bedrock of support and bitter because MANDARIN FFS :headache

eta: lol CURSE YOU AND YOUR BILINGUAL NATURE, POMMY.

pommy48 21st November 2012 01:40 AM

To be honest, I hate her Chinese company so much...(If people have me on Facebook, you would know :laugh)

But the list goes on for me as to why her company right now is so bad :rambo

But I have faith in alan! She's not someone who just compromise for the sake of others! She will do the music that she wants and something her company push onto her!

Bad Wolf 21st November 2012 01:41 AM

ARE WE GONNA HAVE TO GET IN SOME CARS (and planes) AND GO KICK ARSE? >O What's up with the Chinese company, then?
