This album is the result of death making me insane. At last the album that began with my hands has taken form. I recieved it today.

I listened to it.

For some reason, the tears suddenly stopped overflowing. Perhaps some sort of thing will begin.

This album was something I was able to make, and it was a good thing...

I want everyone to hurry and hear it. I want you to feel it.

So I just had this thought.

On Christmas, stand in line in the stores until that day, have fun waiting.

死にものぐるいで創りあげたアルバムが、
やっと形になって私の手元に今日届いた。

聴いてみた。

何故か急に涙が溢れだして止まらなくなった。
こんな事、始めてかも。

このアルバムを創る事が出来て、本当によかった。。。

早く、みんなに聴いて欲しい。感じて欲しい。

そう、切実に思った私でした。

クリスマスに店頭に並ぶその日まで、楽しみに待っててね。

The album, which was made out of my being driven crazy by death,
Finally took shape and arrived in my hands today.

I listened to it.

For some reason I suddenly brimmed with tears and just couldn't stop.
I think this might be the first time that's happened.

I am truly glad that I was able to make this album...

I want you all too hear it soon. I want you to feel it.

I felt that so urgently.

Please look forward to lining up in front of the stores on Christmas.

I guess we can gather that the album has been given its final mixdown, and only the graphic design really remains. We should expect to see the full tracklist soon.

Ayu seems to think that this album, while stemming from a tragic event, was really good for her to make. I'm really interested to hear it.

And it looks like ayu wants everyone to hear these songs on christmas - not sure what she's got up her sleeve there. But she seems REALLY happy with it, so. I guess we'll see!

Wow there, the first part is very intense, i think.

Wow, intense indeed.

I'm sorry, I've been out of the loop, but when did Ayu mention about the tragic death? :headache

I think it was right before her Domoto Kyudai performance, actually, it was rather that day or the day after.

I think it was about the same day the actual name for "Together When..." was announced.

Yeah, I just looked it up--it was TA Message # 199.

Suuuweet. Tracklist plz.

ehh?!?! Now I'm so excited... what does she mean by "on Christmas" we should line up?

Indeed, what does she have up her sleeve?

Now I just want to hear the album more! =]

I must say, this is the first studio album Ayu has released since I became a real fan, which was after Secret was released but before A BEST 2... excitement? YES!

I'm pretty sure thats how it all goes down.

And yeah, I think you will actually be able to BUY the CD on christmas is japan. maybe that is what she means?

Aww Ayu! Poor thing ;.;
I wish I could stand in line to buy her album! I wait three hours if I had to xD
But I knew it! I'm really curious now!

ayu's so cute. i'd stand in line! i'm so effing excited! UGH. haha thanks so much :)

I'd definitely line up for Ayu anytime for as long as she wanted.
She's so intense. <3

Thanks for the news.

umm....I'm not sure if I understand this message correctly...:confused

Does anyone have the original message in Japanese?! I wanna read the original Japanese! <hugs Ayu>

but wasn't it one of her dogs that died? or no?

:shrug

ooh...sounds like this album will be very powerful ^_^ I'm glad that this album helped Ayu though...

I don't get it. Is she releasing it early or something? Why would we stand in line on X-Mas for a New Year's release?

it was a speculation, but (not to sound heartless) i don't think she'd be sad over a dog's death for THIS long. i mean, sure, i like dogs, i don't think they're evil or vicious or anything, but hasn't it been over a half-month now? plus, i think that the post said it was her godmother that died...(not sure if it was actually mentioned, but that was the most logical reasoning)

Wow, now I really can't wait to hear the album. Maybe I'll even preorder it after all..
