Rock'n'Roll Circus tracklist!

[x-megumi-x]

The tracklist is great! It looks so promising <3
I'm glad there's a PV for Lady Dynamite, hope it will be hot

[miroro]

bridge to the sky had lyrics too and weren't included in the booklet, so anything can be possible

...UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH. "Jump!" is my least favorite title EVER, "THE introduction" is tacky and way too obvious, and "montage" is just sooo boring.

I'm also very disappointed that she put Sunset at the beginning of the album, because it's setting me up to be VERY bored by the album opening like NEXT LEVEL which I still can't listen to. >>;

The rest of the titles are okay though. The album is set up... very strangely though. :/

Wow... so many prejudgements.

I wonder how she'll explain the titles if she ever does, haha.

[tasking]

First, I saw that the tracklist was up and then when I clicked on the thread, of course AHS became unavailable. I used Google to get the tracklist instead and it led me to a UK music forum of all things o_O

But because of that, when I saw these, I thought it was fanmade. My first thought was...

WTF.

So disappointed. Hopefully the songs will kick ass and they'll grow on me when I listen to the album.

The titles are fine, minus Sexy Little Things and Lady Dynamite (ew ew ew to both, and THE introduction is so original, but hahahaa it's okay).

Ehh, even though the title is Rock 'n' Roll Circus, it seems like this album will be loaded with ballads o.o

I agree.

[ownsarai]

^^So far we know there are definitely 3 ballads. You were..., BALLAD & Sunset~LiA~

I don't understand the reasoning behind putting Sunset before Sunrise on the album, but whatever Ayu wants, Ayu gets. haha

Is this the first time a B-side has made it onto an album? I had a feeling RED LINE would be on the album, it's a song for her fans, and it's a different version than the single version! I'm way too excited about this, even more now that the list is out~

[appears]

I read that there are 12 songs with lyrics
since mirror also had some I bet THE introduction has lyrics woo

her site says the initial pressing versions of the album will come with a randomly selected facsimile lyrics card, out of 12 available.

i would have thought that these lyric printouts would be full-length tracks, thus making THE introduction & another 2 tracks interludes... but who really knows...

i would like meaning of LOVE to be a full-length track but it kind of reeks of interludage... am leaning towards what jbrat2219 thinks.. though having an intro, one track, proceded by an interlude is pretty weird, but whatever

nope... FRIEND from poker face... GAME from INSPIRE...

I'd just read that too, so it means there will be 12 full length track +3 interludes which made up 15 tracks of the album??

That 12 facsimile lyrics card they mention about would be Ayu's original copies of hand written draft lyrics card referring to these paragraphs:

and the cards will be inserted into 12 of either 【AVCD-38102/B】 OR 【AVCD-38104/B～E】 which is CD+DVD version OR Special Limited Box Set.
I wonder who will be so lucky enough to get the card? o.O"

Last Links make me laugh hard

"Song about Ayu's last visited sites on the internets!"

[truehappiness]

Is it just me or did people rule out the possibility of a bonus track? -hides- Haha.

Honestly, anyone who really hates these titles, what's your issue with them? They're very Ayu, and what else would you expect from her? I really wonder if anyone actually knows what they want or what Ayu would put out... just look at all the crappy fake tracklists that came out and were proven wrong! I wonder what you would come up with as Ayu titles and if they'll be laughably horrible after all since apparently these don't fit your vision of Ayu's album. What right do you have to be so disgusted by just titles? I swear, no other artists get bullcrap like this when they release tracklists... it's just like "Oh, cool, we have titles." until we actually get songs...

First of all I have to say a secret track would be nice, but I am not going to expect anything. Moving on, I actually agree with you and wonder why people dislike certain titles, photoshoots, etc. first off your not going to be listening to the title of the song to begin with nor do you have to look at a photoshoot you don't like. I'm sure other artists get people who dislike song/album titles, photoshoots, etc. but i don't think that they nit-pick at every little detail like many of the Ayu fans on this and perhaps other forums. Moving on... I think its quite humorus that there are some many Ayu-Extreamists on this forum.

There isn't any point in complaining over the way A pv has been directed, the end result of a photoshoot of any kind, nor the lyrics of a song or its arrangement, etc.. because guess what, the fact of the matter is that not you, myself, nor anyone else has any kind of control of the content released by Ayu, no matter how badly you hope and wish so. Avex is really the only other person(s)/Company who can tell ayu what to release, how to go about it, and when it is the product in question is going to be released, after all with out Avex trax Ayu most likely wouldn't be rich or famous like she is now. Another thing to keep in mind is that Ayu is an asset to Axev trax, If Ayu (and I am not saying that she would) started to do things that would upset them or cause their stocks to fall below a level they are comfortable with they would not hesitate to drop her. They have other artists that would still bring in revenue in both Japan and America, etc.Basically what i am tryi ng to say is stop complaining over the small trivial things that you have no control over because guess what 5 years from now you will still have no control over what happens with Ayu's career granted she is still an active artist with in Avex.

Here's what I think:

01.THE introduction (interlude, possibly a long one like Mirror)
02.Microphone (rock song)
03.count down (interlude)
04.Sunset ～LOVE is ALL～ (ballad)
05.BALLAD (ballad)
06.Last Links (ballad, because of that unaccounted for ballad-looking PV)
07.montage (full track, probably mid-tempo)
08.Don't look back (R&B mid-tempo)
09.Jump! (upbeat)
10.Lady Dynamite (club song)
11.Sexy little things (club song)
12.Sunrise ～LOVE is ALL～ (upbeat)
13.meaning of Love (interlude)
14.You were... (power ballad)
15.RED LINE ～for TA～ [album version] (*rerecording?* new instrumentals)

I think that accounts for all the three possible interludes. I don't think Ayu would give someone a sheet of music of an introduction, that would be lame as hell.

I hope it will be like this, or maybe "Jump!" instead of "meaning of Love" but only 3 XD please, only 3! and THE introduction being like Mirror that was almost like a song!!

I don't see why they had to add RED LINE and both Sunrise/Sunset songs, but whatever I'm not complaining.

[truehappiness]

06.Last Links (ballad, because of that unaccounted for ballad-looking PV)

Last Links has a tie-in but it has no PV. Don't look back has a PV and is that ballad-looking PV with a shocking conclusion.

I don't see why they had to add RED LINE and both Sunrise/Sunset songs, but whatever I'm not complaining.

RED LINE ~for TA~ = a single track that was made a big deal of... it got a dance at CDL09-10 and it makes complete sense imo.
Sunrise/Sunset = two completely different A-sides despite having the same composition / lyricalish themes... she said they were inseparable and there we have it!

It was pretty much seen from a mile away with S/S and RED LINE was iffy, but YAY.

See I didn't know that about RED LINE, since I never finished watching that CDL, and I just hate it when b-sides make it onto albums lol

Ahh! Yeah. Forgot about that lol. We'll just have to see about Last Links then.

Honestly, i don't care about the titles. It's just a name. Sometimes the more stupiest name's got the coolest inside. I love "STEP you" but the title is just ridicoulus. I love kiss'o'kill but the title sound TOO creative for me (cheesy...) That's just some names guys, wait for the songs (:
