sowie if there is a thread like, I'm too lazy to search.


Well on Timeasia it said that before th 9-11 attacks,
Ayu had everything ready for the I am.. album
Like: Lyrics, Hair, Make-Up but she had a change of heart due to the 9-11 attacks

And the image on the album cover.
The white dove—a symbol of peace.
I had a completely different idea for the cover at first.
We'd already reserved the space, decided the hair and makeup and everything.
But after the incident, as is typical of me, I suddenly changed my mind.
I knew it wasn't the time for gaudiness, for elaborate sets and costumes.
It sounds odd coming from me, but I realize what I say and how I look has a great impact.

Last year, (2001) however, she had a change of heart.
On the days following Sept. 11,
the images of commercial airplanes slamming into the
World Trade Center played over and over again on Japanese TV.
"I couldn't believe it was real," Hamasaki recalls.
The calamitous events halfway across the world affected her deeply,
overhauling her vision for the album she was then working on.
While earlier songs focused on her own loneliness and confusion,
I Am ... takes on issues like faith and world peace.
"In the beginning, I was searching for myself in my music,"
she explains.
"My music was for me.
I didn't have the mental room to be conscious of the listener;
I wrote to save myself."

~so my question is.....
What do you think the ORIGINAL cover of I am..
would have been if the 9-11 attacks didn't happen?
I know it has been 8 years since the attacks but I always wondered
