Ayu - Anything Goes Thread -XI-

[Surreal17]

True, Sparkle is amazing.
I hated my name.s WOMEN when I first heard it. Now I.m okay with it but I never really had THAT MOMENT with it if you know what I mean.

[NintendoHTF1242]

Hmm. I gave A ONE another full run-through. Still can't stand WARNING. NO FUTURE isn't a bad song but it's SO long and Ayu's voice is so shrilly. Out of control is alright but still the most unmemorable song. The Show Must Go On grew on me though.

How can someone dislike WARNING?! lol

[mi|kshake]

Is it wrong that I am loving A feat m.c.A.T?

UH-HUH, UH-HUH!

The lai, lais are really good, but that melody of the guitar that continually replays after every repetition of the chorus is kind of maddening. It's more of like a sound effect, great for the introduction of a television show or something, but in a song, it can be quite daunting. It's a little too chaotic and creates tension like one is spiraling downward.

[Delicious n Bold]

^ now that you've said that, the song is giving me vertigo

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

I don't hate warning, but I don't think it's great either haha. It's subpar to her other rock tracks, imo.

[ayu99persen]

It is just like her perfection was loosing its way

[kotora]

after this discussion, I want to have A BEST 3 with demo disc...That can totally sell.

[Surreal17]

Exactly. Maybe for her 20th anniversary.

[YukiUsagi]

A BEST 3 will be her last album

Nah, that song is amazing. I love it more than I love many other ayu songs lol

[DonkeyKongRemix]

I totally LOVE ayu-mi-x acoustic orchestra. The instrumentation is very pretty on a lot of the songs, especially As if... but the vocals are...well, rough. XD It's like there's this strange mixture of pretty with painful.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

UGHHH I'm really hoping for summer perfection with this new mini. PLEASE ayu. I want like, July 1st, HANABI, You & Me, XOXO, BLUE BIRD, fairyland realness.

Thank you for describing this in a way I couldn't. XD I don't hate it, in fact sometimes I find it to be fun to listen to, but for the most part...it is exceptionally uncomfortable for me to listen to.

I feel like Snowy Kiss has this same spiraling feeling but sped up twice as fast which makes it feel like I'm having a heart attack every time I listen to it. O.o I'll never forget the first time I REALLY listened to that song and I cracked up laughing because of just how painful it was.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

ugh...I don't like snowy kiss AT ALL

I have relatively mixed feelings. Like, I get why people hate it and why people like it. Personally, ugh. I just laugh at it. I just wonder what it must have been like to record such a song. How did she not go bat shit crazy while singing that?!

[truehappiness]

Before Rule/Sparkle, I think Ayu mentioned having 'one of her babies/creations' as a potential single, but I don't think it ended up getting chosen for the single or album. To the vault~

[Coelacanth]

I thought the mix for WARNING pretty horrific. I can't even turn it up all the way without hearing very noticeable distortion.

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

The speed of Snowy kiss is what draws me to it haha.
