Ayu's song title that you dislike and would like to rename?

I am not sure if this is a good thread for discussion. Let's try
There are many interesting and nice ayu songs, but some song titles are weird and some fans dislike it. If you could rename those songs, what would you like to rename?

Here is my list.
(1) my name's WOMEN = I really want to rename this title. The song is great especially ayu preformed in ARENA TOUR 2005.
The title I would like for this song: my lady name

(2) Are you wake up? = Wrong grammar..
The title I would like for this song: Are you awake?

(3) Bold & Delicious = hmm I cannot see the title that is related to the song.
The title I would like for this song: Raise your hands

(4) P.S II = No! I am not going to play the video game!
The title I would like for this song: Tearless from Powder Snow

(5) (miss)understood = First time I saw the song title, I through it would has two songs titles (miss and understood) that became one big theme. The song is great but the title is weird.
The title I would like for this song: Misinterpret

(6) still alone = I don't know why ayu didn't use "Survivor" instead. Remember the rumor for this song was called "Survivor". I deadly love this title.
The title I would like for this song: Survivor

(7)Naturally = Same as "still alone", the rumor was better the real title.
The title I would like for this song: NATURAL

(8)fairyland = hmm I don't like the title.
The title I would like for this song: Utopia

(9) CAROLS = First time I saw the name, it confused me. CAROL with S? How many Carol in person in this song? Well it is a christmas song..
The title I would like for this song: My love

(10) girlish = weird but nice title... but I still want to rename.
The title I would like for this song: cheerful

I know,, ayu's song are unique, but some fans always discuss the song titles. We should share what we think about ayu's song title..

Hmm. Not too many.

1. Startin' = I just... kind of feel embarrassed when I say the title. I don't know why, but it bugs me.
The title I would like for this song: Starting

2. Greatful days = Sorry. But I can't stand things spelled wrong, even if this spelling seems to make more sense.
The title I would like for this song: Grateful days

3. FRIEND II - Ugh. Too many IIs. >__> And I don't like the word 'friend' much, anyway.
The title I would like for this song: WAITING

4. Introduction - Please. How boring sounding, especially since it's the first track.
The title I would like for this song: Racing

5. Interlude - The title's so obvious and simple.
The title I would like for this song: Celestial

Not sure why people don't like the title Bold & Delicious, I think it's precious. It fits the theme of the song well, not to mention "BOLD & DELICIOUSSS!!!!" is shouted through the entire song. The only song I wish was renamed was theme of a-nation '03, because it's such a boring title.

I echo with some of you guys' idea that respect ayu's opinion and I think ayu named those songs that way for a reason! other than those grammar mistakes I think all of ayu's song are really well named and I also think Bold&Delicious is the perfect name for that song!! So i would so I love ayu's way of naming those songs!

I'm happy with Ayu's titles.

Only the ones with really bad english bug me...and the only one, that I can think of now, is Are You Wake Up. It's a cute title...but it's...annoying to say...should it be...Are You Woken Up, or Are you awake...I don't know...The only reason why i don't really care about it too much, is that I understand what she is trying to say with the title...and there isn't really an english way to say it without losing the "cuteness" or whatever she was trying to get at...so, whatever...yeah...this post was useless...because, I really wouldn't change any aspect of ayu's music...

let's see, lots of them though,

POWDER SNOW >> Deep snow :p

girlish >> PRECIOUS

SEASONS >> MIRACLE

fairyland >> NEVERLAND

Startin' >> Desire

BLUE BIRD >> BLUE SKY, or maybe Bright & Blue

Replace >> Make A Wish (i dunno, i always think this song fits really well as my birthday song)

walking proud >> isn't it supposed to be walking proudly? well, i like it to be Endless though...

SURREAL >> FOREVER

About You >> You are... (i think "About You" is too cheesy for a rock song)

is this LOVE? >> everything everything (yes ppl, twice)

In The Corner >> in the corner (only the capitalization bugs me)

my name's WOMEN >> CLOWNS

theme of a-nation '03 (the stupidest title EVARRR) >> MATSURI (you know, like HANABI, which is a brilliant title [and dull song at the same time])

Born To Be... >> Born to be Free (ppl will fill the "..." w/ dirty words)

Pride >> Fraud

actually there's still a *****load of titles i'd like to change, but can't think of 'em ATM,

and put aside those crazy titles, ayu DOES have some really brilliant ones, such as:

Bold & Delicious
UNITE!
I am...
RAINBOW
INSPIRE
Moments
CAROLS
M
July 1st
Greatful days
forgiveness
ourselves
HANABI
Voyage
Will
HEAVEN, etc

those titles are perfect!

^ I think INSPIRE, Voyage and HEAVEN are great!! some weird ones are Greatful days (huh?), M and Will (what is she trying to say?).

other than that, i respect ayu's decision. its her song! not ours.. after all. ayu's english is not perfect.

I can't believe no one mentioned the hideous:

STEP you

Switch it to something proper, "1,2,STEP" for instance.

Then people would jump on it saying it's some weird that girl copy... LOL

I think it'd be wrong to change any Ayu song's title.. :/
Personally, I feel that if you change anything about Ayu's discography, then it'd seem a little odd..

Imagine if M was called Bliss.. o_o~

Or endless sorrow called SEPIA..

At least 'STEP' then. Why the "you"? If she ever goes international, it will so be tabloid fodder.

I can't imagine calling STEP you anything other than that.. lol

It gives the song a certain uniqueness to have such a weird name.. like how Bold&Delicious is how its named.. lol

I know, but it's partly because we can't change it so we accepted it. I think if she had a poll to vote for best song title between "1,2,STEP", "STEPS", "STEP", and "STEP YOU", I very stronly doubt anyone would choose "STEP YOU".

STEP you is a lyric in the song though..

Sorta like naming Are You Wake Up? something like "Are You Awake?" because that'd be boring. LOL

I'd choose STEP you cause STEP/STEPS seems incomplete.. and 1,2 STEP..is another song.
