MissElin_ · #2 25th November 2009, 01:42 PM

I like the new layout! Now I'm just waiting for the little box in the left corner to show a CM for the single!

~angel*ayumi~ · #3 25th November 2009, 01:41 PM

I like the new TA layout, especially the background with the snowflakes^^

TITANIC · #4 25th November 2009, 01:46 PM

hopefully new cm will be added soon

**ayumisrael** · #5 25th November 2009, 01:52 PM

Yay, finally a new layout and huge HQ covers.

nemesisyume · #6 25th November 2009, 01:55 PM

I like the layout
I hope we get HQ covers

kiseki89 · #7 25th November 2009, 02:35 PM

just listened to the 'preview' of you were... and i think i like the chorus

the TA layout is nice~ I seriously love the covers

freedreamer · #8 25th November 2009, 02:48 PM

@Yukitora: Now that u mention POWDER SNOW...omg similar right??? The chorus continues on and on and the rock guitar is similar to those which happened in PCDL...it just rocks so much!

I love the layout...I wanna see the PV...i really am thinking something artistic now. ahhaha...something sad...Moments like...I want a random/super deep PV!!

(my roommate told me) because *technically* only members of TA are supposed to be seeing her blogs, it's for them in the sense that they know why it's being written and the background of it.

if that makes sense.

Ah, I think I remember that post. But didn't she write untitled~for her~ for her friend? Or is this just solely based off the emotional post she made after that song was written?

I still cant accept although TA asked for that...

huff no matter what I still love ayu but I will not like it.

Spoiler:

I don't think people who are not her fans would care nearly as much as you seem to.

Just heard the preview.
It's ok, I guess. I don't like the way she's singing it, especially in the beginning. And she yells and screams almost the whole chorus again, I don't know how does she want to perform this song live...
It's nice, I like the guitar solo, but nothing more.
I'll wait for HQ version to judge it properly though.

Pretty layout

asmAyumi1992 · #12 25th November 2009, 05:22 PM

The song is really good! I love it!

Masamune · #13 25th November 2009, 05:37 PM

Good layout & nice preview!!

Thanks so much!

ownsarai · #14 25th November 2009, 08:16 PM

^Well, it was her fan club whom she expressed her emotions to. And they, in turn, helped her to get through it by showing a lot of support. So it doesn't bother me that it's ~for TA~. It really does make sense. I think it's a very sweet thing for her to do after all.

Kanzaki · #15 25th November 2009, 08:33 PM

The ~for TA~ part still bothers me, but it's sweet that she recieved such support from her fan club, and this song is the result. I don't mind that at all, I just want her to realize that we are here too. I don't want any songs dedicated in my name, but maybe one time she could not write "Thank you TA", but replace it with "Thank you all of my fans", somewhere. Anyway, it's not that important.

Layout is pretty <3

I agree, something like Thank you all of my fans would be more polite ! Thank you TA is not polite at all, no matter the subject, often I really feel she just thanks the fanclub and others don't count. Not only the fanclub buy CDs, nor go to her lives, those non fanclub members bring money to her as well.

And it's like she doesn't realize the others fans, I think we are as good than others !

That she name it ~for TA~ doesn't disturb me more than this, it just makes it very ugly imo but it's the rest of year, how she behave, TA, TA, TA ..... me too I was sad and sorry for the loss of her friend, but I can't send her a mail or let a message nor anything else ! But I was. And I'm sure I wasn't the only one who thought : oh *****, I'm so sorry for her, and I don't think because we are not TA member we are worthless. We are as much than others.

After the song sounds nice, the sound is not great ^^ but there is so much guitar that I am in love

and to try to sing it along bring me tears XD baka me

i totally agree with you.
she needs to realize she has so many fans all over the WORLD, not just the ones in japan who are able to even join TA.

Aisha_Angel · #18 25th November 2009, 08:43 PM

Did anybody notice that in the promo pics, Ayu's wigs are different colors?

Anyway...

"You were" sounds really pretty. Very stereotypical Jpop-winter ballad, but very pretty nonetheless.

love in music · #19 25th November 2009, 08:59 PM

if the song is good, i'll just forget the ~for TA~ part like i did with the ~LOVE is ALL~ part lol

do it again · #20 25th November 2009, 09:16 PM

if she intended it only for her fanclub, then i think the song would only be on a special edition of the single ONLY sold to her fanclub. i think ~for TA~ means for Team Ayu, her fans, not Team Ayu, her fanclub. to me, RED LINE reminds me of the red string of fate that is mentioned often in Japan, and the song to me symbolizes the red string of fate connecting ayu to her fans. she would NOT deliberately exclude most of her fans who are not members just because they give her money to be in her fanclub.

the song is not a special bonus like a fleece blanket only available to those in the fanclub, it's to all her fans who are her Team Ayu!

that's what makes sense to me, at least.
