Ughh sucks! Namie has some really pretty dolls, I want ayu have a collab with either tomy or barbie and release every outfit for every album cover/best concert costumes or something! I would spend big bucks~, it would revive my collection

Last but not least, I even got a kick out of "bitchy Ayu" around the time of A Best. "You're making my staff and me wait and no ones telling us why!" Etc etc



PS sorry I love gifs n memes

Ahhh when did that incident happen?

^ It's in the documentaries 2004 of light and shadow

I'm re-listening to Secret album and as I'm reading through the lyrics once again I can't help but think "What was the secret? Was she trying to convey it through this album?" or some sort.

I read somewhere that somebody thinks the hidden message to the fan was "I don't want to fade away". what do you guys think?

I'm trying to find some old threads that already discussed this topic, but so far none.

I'm planning on making a Barbie OOAK (one of a kind)...

I have a few different dolls I'm considering as the base. I can post pics sometime so people can help me choose. The OOAK would consist of a possible re-root of her hair and changing her face paint, along with assembling an outfit that's Ayu-ish (since sewing outfits is too hard, lol)

I've been planning this for a few years but won't be able to until this summer probably.

The album goes through several songs where she is this strong woman, that knows what she wants, that is strong even during the bad times... And it ends on Secret, a song where she says all of her superwoman public image is just that, an image.

Thanks, that helped out a lot

[Delirium-Zer0]

I do have thoughts that based on some of the language used in "Secret" and some past songs that Ayu has had serious suicidal thoughts in the past... She has some lyrics that could be interpreted multiple ways, but that's certainly one possible interpretation.

[NintendoHTF1242]

I've always associated "walking proud" with suicide. Makes the song a little harder for me to listen to but so much more powerful.

Anyone remembers the pregnancy theory for Secret?

That would be the Tomoya Nagase era. But that may have been a rumor, although I jumped in the Ayumi Hamasaki bandwagon literally after the Secret album was released (Secret released November 29th, 2006; I jumped in the Ayu fandom on December of that year, not very sure at the time as it was my first foray into Ayu - didn't realize her career started way back in 1995! - and Japanese pop music overall)...

Three years and two albums later, I still find myself going back to Party Queen at hard times. I really love this album, despite many hating it.

I'm listening to MY STORY again and oh my god, I think Memorial address was when a new golden era started.
