[07/10/25] New message from Ayu - NO.198

[Tasked]

The idea of a WEIRD song would be awesome.. Even tough B&D may not be everyone's favourite style, it IS terribly unique.. Maybe Ayu can do more crazy tracks.. Triphop, anyone?

Ayu isn't very good at describing her songs however. She said "talkin' 2 myself" and "decision" both had a "cool and rock feel" which makes it sound like "It Was" but it was much more hardcore than that. But I really don't think it's Ayu's explanation that sounds weird, it's just that when you translate it from japanese it sounds weird in English. Anyways, NO B & D. That would cut her sales in half. It was suicide releasing that as a single. I'm hoping "Ladies Night"? That was rather weird. Something different is good though.

Also, AYUNITE has a much clearer translation.

I was hoping for a WINTER BALLAD like everyone else. But it disappointed me that she says "the new song". That means one. I am dying for a new album!

If ayu were to release a new single, I think it will be a 2 song single....its been a long time since she released a 1 song single. Releasing 1 song single wouldnt be enough to get high sales if she wants her sales to increase...unless if it has a good tie in like flavor of life.

actually; she doesn't say that.. there is no 'the' in japanese... And.. would you really describe 'it was' as cool? IMO; more upbeat songs like is this LOVE? and decision are 'cool'...

めちゃくちゃいい曲なんですけど-
めちゃくちゃ = weird
いい = good
曲 = song(s)
なんですけど = however, it is

Thanks for clearing that up
I really liked "It Was" for your information. "Cool" to me says "it's not amazing but it doesn't suck". More like filler material.
