Let me list the countries in which it is not available but have a sizeable ayu catalogue (according to iTunes):

Canada
USA
Mexico

And that's it as far as clicking the iTunes button and changing my region for 20 seconds goes.

Even Trinidad and Tobago, Bermuda, Fiji, and Peru have it >_>
It'll probably be released everywhere by next Tuesday though.

Ayu took notes from Perfume. When they say "world tour" and that they're going to release an album "world wide" they really mean asia, and 3 countries in Europe.

my favorite song was XOXO, and now i can't take away from my mind ayu acting like a mental illness everytime i'm listening the song.

I agree. Everyone has their own ideas while listening to songs and having a video can restrict that image since there is an official video. I was sad Terminal didn't get a video but in the end, I still have my imagination and what it could look like so that's fine
Oh and also the ideas we as fans for a video have are most of the time really different from what Ayu does in the end so even if we have an idea it wouldn't be realized and that is also kinda sad~

It's available on Argentina's Itunes:

Ugh, Why isn't on iTunes in North America?! Is she planning some kind of special release or something?

[brener]

I don't think so and correct me if I'm wrong but Feel the love / Merry-go-round also had a delay on its release in North America iTunes

A video doesn't have to have some grand, deep concept to look good.

And, videos that DO have some deep concept don't just get a free pass to look crappy.

thanks for sharing.

I wanted to RT this but then I realized I wasn't on Twitter anymore

I'd also like to add that low budget is reeeally not an excuse for making a really sub-par PV... but anyway



I've been pleasantly surprised by this album! It does feel a little incomplete as a package, but the songs individually are a godsend after LOVE again and I'm just so glad that she finally broke the peach-magazine-shot-CD-cover trend. The PVs are incredibly bad to the point that it's not even amusing anymore, but I gave up on her PVs years ago so I'm not really disappointed

This is my first comment here, so excited!
I´m really hoping that Colours get some promo, like putting Lelio in some tie-ins in a CM of a Drink or something! Hello new me is doing well since weeks in Recochoku, in the monthly chart is number 15. Come on ayu! promo!

Suspicious that it is not in US iTunes yet................. US release?

[KPL]

The US ITunes is trying to concince her to change the title to "Colors" before release.

Sure!
and re-sing all the track to english too XD
and of course change her name to something not so asian.

US iTunes Store is picky when it comes to releasing J-Pop stuff. The store generally updates with new releases and additions every Tuesday.

Please be welcomed!!

Unfortunately I don't think that any more songs from the album will get tie-ins, not before/until the release anyway (or at all).

Is 15 for its first month? IIRC it was released a couple of months ago?

[brener]

I'm already thinking about a Fall/Winter single ^^

[se7entheaven]

I think she blew all her budget on the producers

[brener]

Something tells me that ayu doesn't have a limited budget from avex..

[ayuinh.k?]

I guess she's not bringing in a lot of revenue for avex, so they in turn are giving her a smaller budget? Or she spent too much on those first class plane rides between Japan and L.A

[Marcelo]

I think she owns Avex stocks the worth that she can do whatever she wants

Is anyone aware of the release date for Armin's dub mix of "Terminal"? I'm eager to know the playtime of his remix (hopefully over 7 minutes) but haven't heard anything till now.
