Your Guess on 'Secret' Album Cover

[se7entheaven]

My Imagination....

AYu will be laying beside a treasure box written 'A Secret'
She's wearing a nice Indian style gown (something like a Genie) so she's like guarding the treasure box

[s1012h]

ayu
without the platinum blonde hair
maybe light brown hair
as a gatekeeper for a huge beautiful door that leads to the "secret"
haha
that's what i would want
but it'll probably be something else

[alt.total-loser]

Ayu has light brown hair put up in a fancy ponytail, sort of wavy, her bangs hanging out. She's in a fancy old fashioned dress and sitting on a chair. However, we see her from the waist up. She's holding up a mask (you know, those ones on sticks), half covering her face.

Waah. Ha.

[slowmoth]

she will be with the hair of a-nation

[truehappiness]

I'd rather not guess.. x.x

We're never right anyway LOL

[immel]

I think it might be pretty similar to the MY STOR/BLUE BIRD covers, the same kind. As for what Ayu might look like, I still believe that red dress, Ayu sitting on the bed, shot might be from the cover photosession, no clue though.

She looked so 'spiffed up' in it so it can't have been just an every-day thingy they were doing.

Now that I look on the scans for the latest ViVi I can't find it ... um, where from is the picture I was thinking of? It's very new, she's sitting on a bed beside someone with a red dress and SURREAL-era hair/makeup.

I found it... it's from the blog of Mika Noguchi, not any magazine scans, my bad.

You can see it in this thread:

i don't wanna hurt my brain and get dissappointed. i would rather just wait for the cover to be out

[bluegie]

i dun wanna guess.. whenever you guess something, you always guess something perfect. the outcome maybe perfect, but as long as it's not what you imagine, it ain't perfect..

i will wait and see what ayu will gimme instead this time

[Aisha_Angel]

Ooh, me likes visualizing.

CD+Poster edtion:

~CD COVER:
Ayu lying on the floor in a partially fetal position with her face up at the camera, one of her sexy Ayu faces and a finger over the lips. Her eyes would be done with pretty long lashes surrounded by eyeshadow in the shape of a cerulean heart around one eye. Her hair would be long and full like sexy-Ayu in the "STEP you" PV except in black with lavendar highlights. She would wear a purple and black leather corset and matching cerulean and black leggings with "SECRET" written on the left leg. (or whichever is the more revealed with the pose)
Beside/around her would be various items such as a miniature model motorcycle (Startin'), a blue bird statue (BLUEBIRD), an Ayupan action figure ("Beautiful fighters"), an open bloom purple flower (Born to be...), an engagement ring inside of a box (JEWEL), a mirror (1LOVE) and a diary that has "ayumi hamasaki" etched on it to represent "teens" and the other album secrets.

~POSTER:
Mohawk Ayu with finger over the lips and eyes closed turned to the side with a giant star made of makeup on the side of her cheek. In the middle would be "SECRET" with whatever stuff she prefers to be written on the bottem.

CD+DVD+POSTER edition

~CD COVER:
Mohawk Ayu with head slightly cocked to the side (so we'll know it's a mohawk) and mouth wide open as if she blabbing/laughing the secret out. Opposite eye would have a star made of purple eyeshadow. She would wear an inverted version of the CD-ONLY outfit and would be propped up against a brick wall. On the wall would be "ayumi hamasaki SECRET" in that awesome graffiti-bubble writing.
~POSTER:
would have like the CD-ONLY covers hairstyle/make up with Ayu staring straightforward with a wink and finger over the lips.

Didn't see anyone talking about back covers so I might as well put it up here while I'm writing:

~CD ONLY back cover:
Ayu in a deeper fetal position seemingly looking at the track listing minus all the junk around her. This time her position is on the opposite side unlike the cover so that "SECRET" isn't showing.
CD+DVD back cover:
Mohawk Ayu with a cold look on her face pointing to the tracklisting with her thumb. She could blow a piece of pink/blue bubble gum for fun.

So hows that? I know it's long but like I said I LOVE doing this stuff.

Love the idea... but it seems too unrealistic. Judging on her past covers, it'll probably be a simple pose with no hidden meaning like yours. But your idea is REALLY cool.

Who knows, a lot of her covers has a meaning, although it might not be a very hidden one. I'm thinking especially of I am...

Also, if there's a hidden meaning behind some of them, it's possible we simply haven't been able to figure out yet, because in our ignorance we just look at them and think they are simple ?

Well, I mean the meaning isn't as complex as A_A's idea. Like, the meaning would most likely be obvious like all her other covers, but it won't get complex until the actual CD is listened to.

[AyuMayu]

maybe she'll have her finger up to her lips like SHH

[darc_aqua]

I hope its not just another close up of her face

We've had that for A Song for XX, 1/4 of MY STORY, Memorial address and (miss)understood, that's 4 out of 7 albums, if she wants to keep it 50/50 this album should not have a close up face shot .

Aisha_Angel, you sure are good at visualizing, I'd love to see all that come true.

[Aisha_Angel]

LOL, gee thanks immel. I wish Ayu would hire me; then it'd really come true. haha.

[Terri]

For some reason, I have this feeling it'll look like 'off my day' or something in that nature.

Ayu laughing and the whole booklet full of off-shots.

Hopefully, it won't be :X
