[Official] Update of Layout & Tracklist of A BEST 2 (With confirmed order)

[truehappiness]

What the heck is Koda promotion?

:|

Knowing avex, they're gonna pimp Ayu's album out a lot more than they did with Secret.. D:

[ayu_fan929]

Was Kuu's promotion for the last 3 albums really even that strong? (compared to A BEST...?)

[truehappiness]

I think the only reason BEST-1- sold so much was because it had value or w/e [it was 2CD+DVD right? or something] and BEST-2- sold well because it had 12 weeks of singles on it [and technically was being promoted throughout those 12 weeks]

[*hearT_Place*]

It will be interesting to see how much these albums are promoted and how well they sell. Good luck, Ayu!

[Mari-chan]

^ it means that that track doesn't have a title yet.. it's an unreleased song

Ah... okay. Thanks. A new song... nice. (^_^)'''

[darkswordz]

^that is the main attraction of A BALLAD but it wounldn't be fair to those who brought A BALLAD if RAINBOW is on A BEST II. It is one of ayu's best song, no doubt, but it is unique only to A BALLAD

I wonder if the "better version", in this case, a totally different album, will have better covers in general than the other [kind of like how CD only has better covers than CD+DVD at times]

[Norrel]

What is the english translation of the new track on Black?

edit: nevermind... i went one page back and found the depressing answer.

Also.. whats with this whole thing about Humming beating Daybreak? Was there an early tracklist with Daybreak?

[truehappiness]

avex put a tracklist on mu-mo.net's product page for A BEST 2 WHITE, and then a lot of people assumed that was final [of course, it said "THIS IS NOT FINAL. AND MIGHT BE CHANGED"]

So yeah.

And I don't see how people can think that Ayu would have a Japanese title after so long without one.. :B

[i.e "NEW SONG" or "TITLE TO BE DETERMINED"]

[Norrel]

Well, since this a new song, it has to be definable somewhat, it has to stick out from the rest, ya know? Cause its not like it has another song with it, it's alone.

Ya know what I mean?

[walking proud]

why is moments and my names women on white? I thought those were supposed to be "upbeat"?

[Norrel]

Wasn't white supposed to have upbeat songs? And Black supposed to have "painful" songs? o.o

[truehappiness]

It was mistranslated.

Basically "painful" / "bright" were the themes.

Bright probably being "happy, inspirational, FUN."
And painful probably being "sad, depressing, emo, life-hating"~

Look at the lyrics. Jeeez~
[kinda like how Voyage is uber "YAY BE HAPPY" and so is ourselves in a way.. (think of it like, a song for someone who is the only person who knows the real you, and the satisfaction you can take from that)]

[edgefusion]

I'm really shocked with the amount of people complaining about the tracklisting or order of the songs. Really people it's not that big a deal, you're acting like Ayu should change it because you personally don't like one of the songs. To be honest it's quite brattish, you should just be happy with what you're given.

At the end of the day nobody is making you buy this and if you're unhappy with it then don't get it. Simple as.

[extepan]

i think the tracklisting is not so surprising or inspiring. it is basically her recent singles put together.

[truehappiness]

Well, that is what best collections are most of the time.

We're lucky that Ayu even has had album tracks on her compilations

[kawaii_kisses]

Does anyone know if the regular cd editions come in frist press..or it just applies to the cd+2dvd versions only?

[truehappiness]

Judging from the websites that offer it, it looks like CD+2DVD is the only one with the color cases. :O
