It might be a song insulting people that sing about sex?

Looks like the answer to my thread was answered with "Sexy Little Things."

I'm so pumped for this album! I haven't been this excited for an Ayu album in a while...

Where's "Don't Look Back's" pv?

Sexy little things.... uhm... "little things" would be a really cool title, I just don't like her using the word sexy. Sexy almost trivialises what she does, I don't know how to explain it. "Sexy" is the kind of word that can have that effect.

it depends on ones connotation of sexy
its such a lightly used word nowadays
like me and my friends randomly use it to describe each other
as others do a lot

its a simple compliment
and this seems like it would empowering females in that way
which i find cool

idk,. ill just wait for the lyrics ^___^

For some reason I sort of feel that too. Maybe I'm weird. But I like Ayu's sexyness when it is subtle and not overt. Like Sparkle and its PV for me were way too overt for her. Already having sexy in the title makes it seem overt. If someone/something really is sexy, they don't have to actually say it because they are it and that is a big part of what makes something sexy.

But maybe the content of the song will be totally surprising.

I don't think being prudish really has anything to do with it. I'm definitely not. But it comes down to people having this more mature image of Ayu. And contrary to popular opinion here, sex and maturity are two different things.

Well, the thing is, even if she did read a translation, she still wouldn't be able to know how raunchy it is without being a native speaker of the language. Just like if I were to sing something similar in Japanese it would be no big deal to me because I wouldn't know the nuances of the language that only a native speaker would really know, especially when it comes to slang words like coochie.

^Yeah I kind of agree. Ayu's sexyness winns in a diffrent way. A deeper level so to say. Not RIGHT-IN-YA-FACE-a-la-kuu-with-songs-like-lick-me<3. Naaah I like Ayu more in her special Ayu-like way to be sexy.

We had such a nice time. We started dating in t2m PV, took it slow you know, let our love grow. Then it got really serious in 2008. Then after AT2009 we moved in together. It was lovely. Then on AT2010 he asked me to marry him. He was such a sweet. And Ayu gave us our blessings. She was also such a sweet. Now me and Maro are such a sweets together. Aaaw, how time flies.

well, it could possibly be the 'little things' that she considers sexy as another member put it. as opposed to like (we are) Sexy little things. lol

^ I'm actually really excited about what she'll do with this title. It does seem nerve-wracking at first, but she might do something really clever with it.

Ayu, please do something so we can all stop talking about this? lol.

I don't mind Sexy little thing's title, but I'd think twice about introducing a song with that name to someone else especially since it's from Ayu. It would be such a bother to explain the lyrics again and whatnot, assuming the lyrics would be totally different from what the title is suggesting. Just look here, even the fans are judging it way too much from the title itself. Heh.

When I saw on Facebook excitement about something called "Sexy little things," I thought it was something Kuu related.

Awesome! Can't wait!

Yeah, I also use the word in that context, but in terms of media like music, if someone uses the word "sexy" it has a totally different impression associated with it. I guess it's a word I have very double standards about.

I'm hoping that Sexy little things will be ironic or sarcastic. At least something more intelligent than blind sex appeal.

And does Emmanuel Akintunde count as one of the "famous people" included in the PVs? Because if so, I doubt that the other "celebrities" will be very famous either.

I'm sure this is what she's going to try and get across.

"more than 50 of London's famous musicians and models"

I know a lot of people say Ayu is dynamic and her image is always changing and I suppose it's good that she's trying new things.... but I don't really like where she's going at the moment. Maybe I'm still stuck in being totally enthralled in LOVEppears, Duty and I am... haha
