anyways, they would have to remix, or add new songs, or do something, if they just took a few ballads, kept them the way they were, and slapped them on a new album, and didn't add anything new, no one would buy it. except for collectors just for the sake of having it and keeping their discography up to date.

but I want an A Ballads 2 too! (or A Rock, that would be a cool compilation album). Ooh crazy idea. you know how remix albums are always released in multiple cds? "ayumix 2, 4 cds. ayumix 6, 2 cds. etc" well it would be awesome if they released a double disk compilation album. The first cd could be "A Ballads 2" and the second could be "A Rock" featuring her rock songs, new mixes, new songs, some edits. that would be so cool.
haha, i know that she did do those things, but "a ballads" was so long ago, ayu was in a different place. the Japanese music industry was in a different place.

iunno, i just feel like if ayu were to do another "a ballads", remixes would't necessarily increase sales that much--while I'm ok with that, I don't really think avex would do something if it won't increase the income (as much). remixes don't sell anymore; whether it's trance, techno, acoustic, whatever, it doesn't really matter to the majority of people anymore

and lots of people release compilation albums without changing any of the tracks. addition of new songs is one thing, but almost completely remixing the tracks of a comp. album doesn't happen much anymore

BUT, we'll see

we're all dreaming right now haha
