Ayumi ~ The Anything Goes Thread 5 ~
 

You guys know what to do: talk about Ayuma Hammysaki, our fav faded diva :)
Edit: fad*ing. She's not hitomi or seiko yet.

When she says that she's gonna bring a fresh sound, I want EDM. Just one album full. Rip off namie's album please.

EDM or straight up pop would be so good!

RAINBOW II, plz!

EDIT: Ewwww, Voyage initiate!
That song is ultra cheesy and tastes like diabetes.

It could be good but not just a Rip off of namie's album even if feel is pretty good it lacks personality IMO I don't want that for Ayu =)

^^Diabetes :roflmao
I used to really like Voyage until the point that I saw it as bit of cheesy

EDM would be wonderful because we already got the usual conventional band instrument songs so far. I would like her to be take more challenges like hiring new composers outside of her comfort zone, creating new sounds she never or rarely experiments with. GEO's songs, Wake me up and Tell me why were nice, would like to hear new sounds like those in her upcoming album.

^Indeed, GEO's songs were a total phenomen! I would totally like a new drastic sound change like in (m)u but who knows what Ayu'll come up with.:rolleyes

I just want another rollin' and an interlude that sounds like the beginning of Pieces of SEVEN omfg yes

You know, I actually don't have the faintest idea what she'll come up with next time. Like, rock, soft ballad, poppy, electro, dance, heavy methal, bho? Literally everything can happen right now.
God, I love this woman.

It's been 3 days since I listened Ayu for the last time '-' yet, still singing her songs when I'm at work, good lord lol

Oh my goodness, please Ayu release an heavy metal minialbum like FIVE.
ayumi hamasaki featuring BABYMETAL in all five songs.

Lol just kidding :P. Actually I wouldn't mind if she release something rockish again. But not as messy as Tell All though.

I wish her music was better

I don't care what it sounds like as long as she basically eats and sleeps at the studio. Her music in recent years hasn't been horrible, it just sounds 'cheap'. Songs like Return Road would have truly benefitted from increased production.

^
I kind of agree. Her songs keep being awesome anyway, but just a little bit more of attention, and work on the details would make a lot of them perfect.

I would love an album filled with what's popular in Japan at the moment.... Minus anything akb or sister acts touch.

I always loved you.


Just kill the ballads omg. Like we only really need one or two per album. That's enough! That keeps them special!

oh Yes enough ballads or mid tempo I want all sort of uptempo with different kind of genre ^^

Hontestly I think somewhere down the line someone told the girl or she just thinks that mid tempo or ballads are "mature"
Girl needs to get over that quick. If Cher can do it at 60 ayumi can do it.
Believe girl.... Believe.
Lol

That means being mature is a sad thing :| at best it's boring
Life is sad but is also fun, why stick to the sad only smh
And I agree, if Cher can do it Ayu can also do it

I hope the next album is about music for the love of music so to speak. Not just songs that are for tour themes (Party Queen) or that are completely safe (LOVE again).

She needs to take more risks. :D

I want Ayu to be experimental again. Say what you want, Party Queen >>> LOVE again in my book. I liked LOVE again but it brought nothing new to the table. An EDM album from Ayu would be my dreeeeeam. :yes

I didn't really know where to post this lol. So I was browsing Los Angeles Craigslist for Japanese lessons and saw this picture for Fuji school:
