Kazuhito Kikuchi working on new Ayu song?!

[Kazeyomi]

Maybe it was inaappropriate for Love songs, so she didn't use it I guess.
Oh well, she have a new single after Love songs already lol

[rakeru]

Please let it be a future song... Is there anybody who doesn't love Kazu?

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

I hope this is on the album lol

The song was a present and it seems that Ayu hasn't decided to use it yet.

Looking at this tweet, I think ayu probably decided not to use it, instead of not using it yet. Kikuchi's reply basically said "It was a present, she can use it, but she can not use it too", which sounds to me like the demo didn't really impress ayu and she tossed it or something. If ayu was keeping it for future use and told him, the tweet would have been more optimistic than this.

Perhaps, but I don't think she would toss something that he seemed to be so proud of. I think I'm being really optimistic when I say this, but the way I see the tweet is that he just doesn't really know what she's going to do/has done with the song so there's no reason for him to hint at a possible release or Ayu accepting the composition to be used as a single/album track. I do want to know what it sounded like though~ he really has a way with ballads that I miss.

I believe we might see it one day in the future, just... not now since we're being bombarded with Komuro, haha.

[toxicterence]

yes, it has been abondoned...most of the tracks from Love songs are dominated by Tetsuya Komuro now...

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

wow...the previews sound OK but I don't want the whole album to be TK lol

Same here -.-;

[Ranma Matsuri]

Crap... -__-

Quick, someone tweet spam Ayu and tell her to use it or least make another song with him! XD

[love in music]

it was probably crap. he can do some good songs, but some are really crappy.

[truehappiness]

Er, what's going on? Haha. Seems like someone (yuto_19980408) got into a bit of conversation with Matsuura about the Komuro-on-the-album... but I can't really make much out of it. Are people complaining about the amount of Komuro or what?

"What about Yukumi? What about Yuta Nakano? What about Kikuchi?" or something like that. I'm surprised he talked for so long with this person, haha.

Kikuchi's reaction to Matsuura asking how Kikuchi/Yukumi felt:

man, this person is so rude, but it's hilarious, some of the things he says. Basically he called max a bastard because all the new songs are by Komuro, but he was like "don't make fun of all us fans who want to hear other composers' works!!". Not sure whether to laugh or be angry

I'll translate the tweets later when I have some time.

Yeah, I saw a "kono yarou!" in there, haha. Seriously, I wonder if he was drunk or something lol.

ooooooooooo more twitter scandals. Personally I hope after this album she will go all kikuchi on us. However I still prefer his Alan work to his Ayu work. Her voices seems to be made for his compositions (and voice versa)

Considering that he has what, five to ten times [or more?!] more work with her than with any other artist he's worked with, more compositions means there is more to hear and more to choose from. I liked Beautiful Fighters a lot, so I'd wish he could do some upbeat and ballad-y tracks with hher~

Well Kukichi is/was Alan's producer. Maybe he worked harder with her Whilst ayu just got demos.

Because he's also made a few that nobody seems to ever care about (immature, As if...), and also a few that people - at least at this forum - seem to really dislike (like Beautiful Fighters >_>). He hasn't done that many compositions from her discography, either, so it seems people always forget about him. And even more so, because all I ever hear about, really, is DAI and CREA. >_< Which, I love Ayu's compositions, but she's not her best composer. And DAI is terribly overrated, in my opinion. :\

I guess you're right. I personally love all the songs he's done. I don't understand what people have against immature

Me neither. Such an amazing little song. I don't get some of the hate I've seen for appears neither. It's like my favorite song off of that album and like... ever.
