I know

there's frankly not much incentive to get her best album imo & she only has been around for 3 years & 7 months in the music business

I voted for Peace loving people. I hope that Sha La La and Blue Days make it on there too.

ストロボ・EdGE · #**444** 2nd August 2009, 03:26 AM

...I have two things to say:

1. It's too freaking early for a best of album. And 2 discs?? Her whole discography will be in there!!

2. "All PV's"?? A version of Sing to the Sky already had all of her PVs (excluding Minna sora no shita and Yume wo mikata ni). Wow TWO whole more...

Yum!Fruit_Salad! · #**445** 2nd August 2009, 06:26 AM

The way the best is being set up makes it like ayaka's retiring or worse, dying.

KarenPang · #**446** 2nd August 2009, 06:37 AM

ugh yeah tell me about it Melody

ayaka's History 2006 - 2009

it sounds really terrible for a best compilation album if you ask me T_T

ストロボ・EdGE · #**447** 2nd August 2009, 09:09 PM

So basically, now that I've seen the tracklist, the first CD will be a single collection, and the limited versions will include the second disc featuring the fan favorites... That sounds better. Maybe it won't be so bad....

Ayu released A BEST after only 3 years so maybe this will be ok? On the other hand, she did have 3 albums by that time...

I don't like the title though! 'ayaka's history'?? At least it wasn't called 'Mikazuki' though-- I didn't like how Hirahara Ayaka named her best album after her most famous (and actually only...) hit song.

AMANDABYNES · #**448** 2nd August 2009, 09:18 PM

This release has an actual purpose behind it because she is ill and may not release new music for a long time. Less ridiculous than all the best releases from ayumi & kumi.

Kaiouforever · #**449** 3rd August 2009, 07:10 AM

I don't see the purpose. It seems like a way to milk money like most best albums, especially after only 2 studio albums. Not that Kuu and Ayu are any better, but just saying, this release is not so "tantalizing." If she made a few new songs for it, or rearranged them, then I would want to buy it

that's why for this case , I will wait for the OS press to roll out

I don't want to spend so much $ on a Japan press , it doesn't have any good/meaningful purpose at all

it's a different thing if like what you said , she were to rearrange/resung some of her older material then there will be more incentive for me to preorder the album online

since that's not the case , I will wait for the OS press as I'm no rush to die die get it

I'm going to buy it either way, but I too would have liked it if she put a couple new songs in it...

It would have been cool if she put all of her previously not included in album b-sides in the second disc instead of fan favorites, but then it wouldn't be a best, it would be a b-side collection, and she doesn't have enough anyway. Just a thought (

).

thanks dude for the sales update

who's the sad sod that voted 1 star for the thread ?

Kaiouforever · #**454** 9th August 2009, 01:37 PM

I hope the single can break 40k...

and I guess her last 3 singles will be on the new album, right? So, hopefully it will still sell well, because people who didn't buy the singles waiting for the album, will just buy this album since it has the songs on it.

NintendoHTF1242 · #**455** 9th August 2009, 06:26 PM

So I've been trying really hard to get into ayaka's music xD But I just can't. I don't know why either D: Although I do like Jewelry Day.

Well then you still have great taste; that's her best song IMO. Have you tried Mikazuki?

NintendoHTF1242 · #**457** 9th August 2009, 07:00 PM

^ I haven't heard Mikazuki yet. I was listening to her First Message album but got bored after I believe. So I stopped listening.

Hmm. Well try to give the whole album a full listen, I'm guessing you'll find a few songs you really like. If not, you get your money back!

KarenPang · #**459** 10th August 2009, 05:29 AM

@ Nintendo - you're not the only 1 who doesn't like ayaka's raspy husky voice that much

even my younger sister wasn't able to adapt to ayaka's initally since she's more YUI inclined

she's fine with ayaka's voice now though & yes you definitely should try Mikazuki , it's still her only #1 single in her career to date

Chiharo · #**460** 10th August 2009, 03:35 PM

Nintendo - I like most of her single songs like Te wo tsunagou, Mikazuki, Minna Sora no Shita (though it's not my favorite), Okaeri, Jewelry day... but NONE of her album tracks!
I think they are kind of too weird for my taste, like really weird but I could get into them if I'd listen to them a lot but I still never find time to do that xD. So maybe you should try out her single songs more?

I remember hearing about ayaka and downloading First Message and I seriously was just like you (I actually didn't like any song xD). But despite that later I tried Mikazuki (even though I didn't like it at first listen) and now it's one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard by her.

So, yeah, give her single songs a try.
