But again, I'm not taking it too seriously 
I think she meant that she writes lyrics? Though she might be writing music, too. I think sometime around Rule/Sparkle release she said that she wrote some music but in the end it was never released because avex didn't think it was good enough? |
Just watched it again (so weird: usually I am the one with network problems). Yes, in the end she said something like "I'm so proud of being one of your likes", but maybe she switched to her fans for a while and then returned to Asian women? No, ok, more likely I'm just seeing it as I like the most, ahah. I was kind of confused by her "you guys", because I never heard or read it referred to a group of females only, but English is spoken very poorly in my country, so you sure know better
About writing music now I'm 99% sure: she said "I write music OR lyrics", so she should refer to composing. Unluckily, I never read the thing you're talking about, but when she made the shoot for BAZAAR's 25th Anniversary I think she said something like composing is her favourite part of making a song but she doesn't do it anymore because it makes her feel bad for some reason I don't remember (sorry: I read the interview only once and I was in a really bad mood). Maybe it's related to what you said... she didn't take it too good when she was fired by COLUMBIA Nippon (if I remember the name correctly), and it would be a pretty similar situation, though many years have passed and Ayu went through changes.
I didn't mean writing music at a professional level, anyway. I'd love a comeback from my favourite composer, but as an hard-dying pessimist I prefer not to think about such a thing at all. I feel pretty intrusive saying it since it's her private life, but I had that sweet feeling because I find it lovely that she still amuses herself with songwriting.
