『MOON』 New medium ballad title revealed!

[GRACE]

"A ROCK" is completely ridiculous. MOON is a pop midtempo ballad :l It's not a rock song, so there's no way an "A ROCK" is on the horizon.

PERHAPS, just maybe, it's an indicator of something more amazing. A BALLADS 2

I know isn't it!? I'd die of laughter if she released something with such a title. It was coined by Truehappiness

The preview sounded like a rock-charged ballad to me though.

If Ayu brought back an A BALLADS cd I just might cry with happiness -- for some reason, AB2 is my favorite compilation/remix album of hers ever -- some of those rearrangements and recut songs are just so... ;~; stunning.

I've been wanting another A BALLADS ever since the first one came out. I just love A BALLADS!

the only way i'd want another a ballad is if ayu remixed tracks again, maybe bring back a new "hal's mix" or something

if it's just a ballad compilation with no new versions, i'm not really interested haha.

of course she'd make new versions, or add remixes, or atleast do something new. every compilation has something new, a best has "new mixes", a ballads had rainbow and sotsugyo shashin, both which at the time were new and unreleased, and a ton of remixes (I'm amazed it's not considered a remix album), a best 2 had part of me, which was an unreleased song at the time, a complete had who "chinese version".

anyways, they would have to remix, or add new songs, or do something, if they just took a few ballads, kept them the way they were, and slapped them on a new album, and didn't add anything new, no one would buy it. except for collectors just for the sake of having it and keeping their discography up to date.

but I want an A Ballads 2 too! (or A Rock, that would be a cool compilation album). Ooh crazy idea. you know how remix albums are always released in multiple cds? "ayumix 2, 4 cds. ayumix 6, 2 cds. etc" well it would be awesome if they released a double disk compilation album. The first cd could be "A Ballads 2" and the second could be "A Rock" featuring her rock songs, new mixes, new songs, some edits. that would be so cool.

omg I'd love Ayu forever (well more than now ) for this
I almost pray everyday for A BALLADS 2 ;_; but with a rock compilation would be really really amazing!

haha, i know that she did do those things, but "a ballads" was so long ago, ayu was in a different place. the Japanese music industry was in a different place.

iunno, i just feel like if ayu were to do another "a ballads", remixes would't necessarily increase sales that much--while I'm ok with that, I don't really think avex would do something if it won't increase the income (as much). remixes don't sell anymore; whether it's trance, techno, acoustic, whatever, it doesn't really matter to the majority of people anymore

and lots of people release compilation albums without changing any of the tracks. addition of new songs is one thing, but almost completely remixing the tracks of a comp. album doesn't happen much anymore

BUT, we'll see

we're all dreaming right now haha

A BALLADS 2 would be awesome! I will buy it for sure! If she can do haru yo koi, then I would be sooo happy!

It's really too bad about that. I totally LOVE remixes. It's just too bad they don't do so much anymore.
