What's happening with Ayu?!
I don't want to say this at all, b/c Ayumi is my one and only but she's selling herself short! Ayumi's new album will be titled (miss)understood, and two songs that were supposed to be on this new album titled, Startin' and Rainy Day, but now they're going to be on a new single after the release of her new album, rumor or no rumor about Startin' and Rainy Day I don't care. She's falling off of her pedestal and she's losing her career. I'm so dissapointed to say this b/c i didn't even want to but I knew I would have to sooner or later, so I'd rather it'd be sooner.

You shouldnt put so much weight on the career of another person, you're going to get dissapointed! Don't worry, you'll always have her older music.

.. Have you watched the lives of B&D... does she look as awful to you as she does to me in that dress in the first two.. and those shoes.. whats up with the steletto heals ?? >.< and the dress.. and the way she stands like that, her legs all open and then she bends at the knees a little.. >.< it's just so awful..
uggggggggggggghhhhhhhh.. and Peco and.. Princess (is that her name?) her backup singers... they look awful in their dresses.. and then they stand with their legs all spread and if they are trying to be sexy/delicious its far from it... .. it borders on Trashy.. imho.. .. but i still love her voice.. i'm hating how she looks dark hair with it straight.. and the dress style.. and shoes.. |

Look, just because her singles aren't selling as much as they did in 2001, that doesn't mean she's going to "fall off her pedestal". Good things don't last forever. She's been at (or near) the top of the Oricon charts since April of 1999, she can't stay there forever. It's not like she's going to die or anything. She's doing just fine.
Besides, you're being too negative. You're pointing out the bad things rather than the good things. She's won the Best Jeanist award five times in a row as of this year, and she doesn't have to compete anymore because she's in the Hall of Fame. Isn't that an accomplishment? Yes, it is. It's not like people are going to stop loving her music. You're just being WAY too negative and comparing her current sales to the ones back in the Duty era. |

Like I've said before, Ayu doesn't really need to impress people anymore. She's been around for a long time, now it's time for her to do her own thing- and we as her fans should just respect that. If people aren't happy with her anymore, there's A LOT more artists out there to obssess over.

You should wait for the album.
I thought this batch of singles was pretty good (A-sides), except the dreaded 'B.A.D.'. Sure she's gone way down from 'Memorial address', but I think she's got some good songs left. I'm hoping for at least one standout album track. On a kind of unrelated note, but in relation to Yukiko-chan's comment, I think her hair looks rather nice, and so does she, though I can't say the same about her recent single.

I agree with you! I absoluetly HATE B&D... but I have LOVED her other singles that she has put out... I can't wait to hear her album... I don't think one song should make us complain about the entire album... I don't like the title of her new album either.... however I haven't seen the cover and the only reason I don't like it is because it reminds me of a Pink rip-off... BUT Ayu always has a way of surprising us and I'm just hanging on hope that this title is used cleverly... perhaps through a song named after the album or just in the booklet itself... I wouldn't say Ayu is falling off her pedastool... Just because new upcoming artists are giving her a run for the top charts doesn't mean that these new artists will keep their popularity... Ayu has stayed on top for years... and has overcome many few-hit wonders.

I think her hair looks nice when it's curled up.. but for some reason.. i just hate how it looks straight.. ah well.
 the singing is still good.. and even tho B&D is weird.. I actually like it.. just her current look in the Lives for B&D is driving me batty.. hah |

are you saying that you just watch the lives for how it sounds? might as well never bother watching and just wait for someone to make an mp3 rip of the sound.. the visual is part of the performance.. and how she dressed in them just wasn't appealing to me.. that's all. really i think it just the legs thing.. and the shoes.. i guess they just look off to me.. oh well.. go ahead, flame me if you want and think i'm a stupid person for having my opinion.. but it's just what i think.. i notice so many people can say things about how they dont like how she looks for such and such.. and no one goes climbing all over them like their evil.. i say this and all of a sudden.. and I'm NOT, AT ALL saying that her career is going down, or shes losing her career.. I just said I think she looks bad in the B&D lives.. Music wise? She's doing just fine.. Jesus.. can't even have a freaking opinion around here but pleanty of other people can i suppose right?

wait i don't understand how she's gone "way down" why do people keep saying this? just because her singles are not selling ridiculous amounts? that doesn't mean anything, and you can't count on numbers anyways because they aren't accurate.
Just because Ayu is experimenting with different styles doesn't mean she's going down. It's because she's experimenting that people are getting all worked up. They don't like one particular style so they think she's all of a sudden "losing her career." All people have different tastes...some like ultra pop, some like rock, some like enka, and some don't like the others.. i wish people would be more open...

Honestly, if all you people are going to complain, move onto another idol--- there are plenty of them who may be more "fresh" and to your liking. Ayu does what she does and she doesn't have to justify herself at all.
Granted, there are some saddening things to this whole career thing and for how long she's been up there--- but c'mon, what do you expect? Let her do her thing. If you really love her music, then you put up with it for the voice. Honestly- if all you're in is for looks and presentation, go for a different idol >.O
