[Official Message] Ayu releases to be postponed

[Earth_maiden]

I couldn't care less when they come out, thousands of people died and hundreds of thousands more and still suffering, they're homeless and they have lost everything except for the clothes on their backs. If I have to wait another month or two to watch a DVD or listen to some remixes then I'm happy to wait. Geez, stop thinking of yourselves so much and try and look at the bigger picture. Whether or not the south of Japan was affected at all by the disasters that happened/are still happening in Sendai/Fukushima, I think Ayu and the rest of the artists who have delayed their releases are being RESPECTFUL by postponing them.

This isn't to everyone, just the select few who keep whinging about delayed releases.

I do agree, however, this is an Ayumi Hamasaki forum and this particular thread is about the postponed release, so we literally have nothing else to talk about except for the postponed releases here. Outside of this thread, I haven't spoken 1 word about the postponed releases because of course I understand and respect it and I feel for all the victims in Japan.

I guess this thread is just the 1 place we can go to wonder when these releases are coming out, and in our daily lives we worry about different things.

Yeah, I'm just getting so frustrated that all some people seem to be able to think about is getting their CDs and DVDs in the face of a natural disaster that has affected so many. I went to my city today and walked around and saw so many Japanese people standing out in the hot sun (it was 36 degrees celsius here today) with donation tins and playing instruments and some of them were just crying openly. Perth isn't that populated by many Japanese, but seeing it here in my city just made me so sad. Then to come in here and see people complaining just riled me up and made me feel even more upset.
