The first time I listened to ayu was just for the release of Memorial Address... so at the end of 2003... sooo 6 years already?? OMG I didn't realise how long I've been an Ayu fan since now... I was 12 by the time (almost 13)!! but I always have the feeling I'm a newbie in a lot of things... how to say...As some of you, my feelings about Ayu's music hasn't changed at all since I first listened to her... they have increased!! ^^

I wasn't aware of how all worked in Japan and for Ayu until My Story and Fairyland release... I didn't know that Ayu was selling new songs as singles the whole 2004... I was only searching for pics and songs in programs like emule... and without order I had them all in my computer... I even thought that one Naturally remix was actually the original track... xDD

So between My Story and Fairyland I became aware of this selling pattern of single-> albums, and found AyumiPrimenova with lyrics, so I could put each song in their respective album... by Fairyland release I already knew pretty much about Ayu's biography and I found a smaaall Catalan Forum (where I'm now one of the moderators) about Ayu and was then that I could follow Ayu's career fully, her TV appearances, magazines everything!! So (miss)understood album was the first time I was aware of an album release and the searching of mp3...

It was a bit crazy before it... And not because the info wasn't there... it's only that I didn't know where to find it... When I came to AHS (not joined, only came here XD) was around between BLUE BIRD and 1LOVE/JEWEL when everybody was expecting for a single... And by this time all the downloading thing and search of scans and so was pretty similar as how it's nowadays... but before I got to AHS... I suppose all depended more of bittorrent and e-mule kind of programs... and now there's a lot of direct download... Si in terms of getting info I haven't suffered a lot...

And was for Secret album when I started buying Ayu's album through YA ^^

So I was a fan (a lost one, but a fan after all) for MA release, and became fan with knowledge by Fairyland single XDDD

(I think I've wrote tooo much XDD)
