A Classical cover & tracklist

[KillTime111]

Surprised this much effort was even put into the cover, going by the last Classical album. I gotta say.. the only things I was truly disappointed by is the price of the album, and the number of songs.. Marginally disappointed by the cover, because hey, it`s one hell of a good drawing.. Could it have been a different pose or view relating to the theme of her recent releases? Yes, but it sticks with the 'classical' trend that was started with [MY STORY Classical].. Which is taking one of the previous releases and modifying it.. Quite frankly, I`ve always liked the [LOVE] cover anyway.. Now I`m not saying from first glance I`m 100% in favor or disfavor for the release.. What`s important with a Classical album is the content and arrangement.. If Avex can pull off the eclectic range of songs chosen by fans with their selections and make them seamless and worth while, then it will probably be worth it. There`s still hope for a great album..

I don't really understand the fuzz about this release. To me, the tracklist is fine. 10 tracks isn't a huge amount, but I think it's enough for a release like this one. And the chosen songs are nice too, a good mix between new songs and classics.
Of course, the cover is extremely boring, but it was to be expected that we wouldn't get a new photoshoot just for this release. I wish they'd have chosen another drawing for the cover, something from an older era...

i think its mainly because people had a set track list in their head and when that didnt play out it = crap, because they dont agree with it.

boring cover why must use LOVE cover let it be just for LOVE not for A classical

the tracklist,nothing special and Missing and Song 4 U? why?? Dearest, voyage we had a bunch of remixes of them already =.=

what compare this to Kpop?? really? i cant even differentiate certain songs, especiallt those ballads sound almost the same sometimes

If u don't like the release simply don't buy it and ignore it!

[Embleu]

Aww, why all the hate? Anything with M on it can't be half bad!

Agreed, I`m looking forward to [M].. amongst other songs..

[primavera♥]

All the lame ballads that are in actuality good songs, but nothing special to me like other ballads. But it's expected. I was excited to see the tracklist and cover. The cover is ame. But I at least am very curious to hear some of the songs on the tracklist, like M, and Song 4 u

[cosmicfirefly]

I kind of expected these songs, though I'm surprised with You & Me being included. I hope the arrangements are really good/different because we already have orchestra versions of a lot of these songs. As for the cover, the only thing that bothers me is her teeth, they stand out too much. I think if her mouth had been closed it would have looked better.

[hidekirby]

A generic tracklist was expected (the japanese fans and their tastes...).
But what I expected was a classy cover not a super realistic fan drawing. I always found this type of drawing horrendous. What's the point seriously!?

I'm waiting for the previews but I may buy it in the end.

I was really hoping for progress... Ah well.

[Catfisk]

Soo disappointed :< only excited for Love song.. .__.

[relmy]

Classic ballads and some new stuff, I'm fine with that. Did people really expect album tracks? Even if TA weren't voting, it would still be these tracks. Can't wait for M, Dearest and Voyage. ♥

A logo is equally as lazy for the cover but I would have preferred it - in line with MY STORY CLASSICAL and there's something off about using the same image twice haha

[TeamAyu2004]

^^ yes +1

[pimenta]

Hm... I don't mind the cover, it's pretty much what I expected, something like MY STORY classical was. And this one is actually better then MY STORY classical's cover, so I guess it's ok.

I like the tracklist though, I just hope Missing and Song 4 u could have new orchestra versions, not the ones already present in the minis, but maybe that's asking too much

*dies*

Seriously? I like some of the songs on this tracklist but I'm not wasting money on this project. And I thought A Summer Best/Party Queen had the worst covers of her career, I stand corrected.

[samjosef]

Kind of disappointed but Love song should be worth the price alone for me.
Can't wait to see what some people come up with on here for custom covers cause I'm not using that one on iTunes!

[Rurutia]

i agree, 2012 is ayu's worst year EVER. I have no doubt about that. and this just proves that to me. She is my favorite artist, and i'm scared i'm gonna eventually say she WAS my favorite artist, unless she starts producing amazing songs and music videos. Covers are the least of my worries. I just want amazing songs Is that too much to ask for?

[jewelbox]

this reeks disappointment

[dannysan]

I'm happy because there's no "evolution"
