Lol, when I get the album, I won't list the genre as "J-pop" for BRILLANTTE, but "mysterious" instead XD~

[Maemi]

*looking at the tracklist* Oh no, another collaboration with URATA NAOYA? too pity that there are 2 collaborations but oh well I'm so happy, I am looking forward to listening to her second mini album! *___*

[toniayu]

I hope she record BRILLANTE pv in spain *O*

[ayumisrael]

I will wait to order the CD+DVD and CD versions on Team ayu shop later to get the bonuses (which we will probably know later).

Btw the album might be like a kana nishino style album from the description (and I love kana's style) so it might be good for ayu to experiment that mid tempo style

Can't wait!!

A mini-album? So unexpected

To be honest, I'm a little bit disappointed by the tracks numbers. Just 5? Aw I'd really wish they were 8 like Memorial address. Oh well, nevermind the most important thing is: A NEW RELEASE yay

Exactly, I hope we got more.

tbqh I myself don't really see the point of collaborating other than it's not Ayu-ish/not traditional Ayu. idk I just don't enjoy Dream On that much so hearing another Naoya's featured is :/ + it's a ballad, I want my ballad as an 'Ayu ballad' not Ayu + someone ballad, sorry but

JUNO is a surprising twist too, but I don't get how this goes. That's why I guess more tracks should kinda complement the 2 collab songs imo. Excited for the 5 new PVs tho and one of them (or all of them?) is a work with Leslie Hope the cover would his work too

[Mami-chan]

Why so much hate for collaborations?? I'm happy that Ayu is finally challenging with collaborations, since she never did it before last year except for the awful "A song is born" experience ›_‹
I'm also not a fan of mini albums but I'm still excited 'cause we'll have 5 new songs and 5 new pvs *__*

I wonder if she used the Italia, Spanish or French word for "BRILLANTE"

[RayJason]

I could have done it without NAOYA and JUNO ..... Really..

BUT I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW, NOT ONLY DO WE GET progress WE ALSO GET 5 OTHER SONGS, AND 5 PV's! And like someone else already stated: I hope that ANother is in fact an typo, oh I hope so.

Why?!
I like to have a mini album with all her solo songs!!!!!
It's called ayu's album,not a featuring album!!!!!!
She's ayumi hamasaki,not Namie!!!!!!
Too bad.
she makes me disappointed.

I agree with you, minus the disappointed part. She was well known for her solo performances, and lately she has been teaming up with these guys. I hate how she does that. After I heard DREAM ON I really hoped that she would not team up with Naoya again, their voices just don't match in my opinion. If Naoya will be like "ooo yeah yeah" again in this song, I'll just delete it out of the album.

hope no...
maybe they are different? In good translation I see ->
bonus for album : Making-of Movie Full Version
bonus for DVD : Making-of Movie Digest

[Fenio]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I woke up with this new! *o*

[terra]

^^ That would be awful, that we should stream it instead of watching it on DVD like usual

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

So how about this. People who don't like the collabs can think of the as a triple a-side single with 2 bonus tracks

[AyUmIXx]

^ T__T
it makes me think twice in buying CDL10-11 DVD then~

i kinda think that Brillante (meaning Bright) will be the summer song~

It sounds like a Nishino Kana song though... haha.

[Larisa-chan]

Wah... I honestly don't like Ayu's collaborations, but I'm happy to hear she's releasing something. I hope there will be a secret bonus track and there will be 6 songs, hahaha. She should also release a version where she sings the two collaboration songs as a soloist... I'd definitely buy that version. Oh well, though. Hope all songs are good~
