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. |
Well yeah, I was hoping she meant to encourage all fans to be like Asian women. About "guys": I'm not a native English speaker neither, so I definitely don't know better than you XD But I think technically it normally refers to boys, but I've seen a lot of people use it for any gender. Especially considering she's not a native English speaker herself. I think guys is the best translation for "minasan"?
I'm not sure about the music part, I'm unfortunately unable to rewatch the video, and I don't remember it word-by-word. I would love for CREA to make a comeback as well... I think she just doesn't feel confident about her composing skills.
