So taskinst uses a sample of another song? I never knew that. O.o

My favorite interlude will always be tasking. It's fabulous~

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone can help me. I'll be going to Japan for a year in September and plan on going to CDL 2016-2017 (assuming there is one), and any other concerts this year if they are after September. So my question is, by what date would it be necessary to join TA? As I would like to enter into the ticket lotteries for when I'm in Japan but I'm saving for the year abroad and haven't got money to spend on it at the moment...

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

They usally anounce the last date of joining for entering the ticket lotterie.

Back when, Liar was like...my favorite Ayu song. I would listen to it over and over again and then something hit me and I thought it was lame.

And now that I finally own My Story, I love it again. I just love the lyrics and her voice. Another more mellow rock-influenced song of hers that I adore is It Was. Those two songs would be great live, though I know the chances of that are pretty slim...>.>

Liar is seriously so good. I never get tired of it. I like It Was a lot too.

I LOVE Liar. love love love, they will pry it from my cold dead hands, etc

If A BEST 3 is happening, and if my calculations are correct, Ayu has to pick about 16/32 songs (depending on whether we get 1CD or 2CD - maybe even 3CD?) out of 134 songs (Secret - Sixxxxxx, and this count doesn't include Winter Diary, Dream ON, SEVEN DAYS WAR, etc.).

I know we'll primarily be getting single/PV given tracks, but I do wonder what she will choose overall, and which albums will be more present.

Aderianu · #9 28th January 2016, 06:41 PM

maybe into A BEST 3 she'll include songs released after latest best compilation - A SUMMER BEST

vogue is really awesome and totally different sounding than anything I've really come across from ayu. Ughh she always writes such beautiful lyrics.

I'm in love with SCAR right now. Once it comes up on by chance, I have to keep it on repeat. The song is gorgeous.

Pieces_of_SEVEN · #12 29th January 2016, 10:47 AM

^I'm playing the Duty album and SCAR is on right now.

Ryusei · #13 2nd February 2016, 12:21 PM

Speaking of DUTY i love her laugh at the beginning of girlish

280301 · #14 2nd February 2016, 12:56 PM

^ +1. Love girlish!

I love SCAR! I realized some time ago that I have never really listened to monochrome before. Then it got all this praise from AHS and I finally listened to it. Now I'm playing it over and over again

Ryusei · #16 2nd February 2016, 07:24 PM

that thing at the end of monochrome with that door closing and somebody stopping the song is so intriguing to me idk why it adds this mystery to it, and ofc the song is awesome haha I agree on that

I agree! I especially fell in love with the song when people on the forum pointed this out in combination with the last line she sings!
Ayu says "Because I'm so strong" and the door closes, someone says "yeah right". That voice that puts her down when she tries to make herself feel better, it's such a small detail but it can put the song in a different perspective.

280301 · #18 3rd February 2016, 04:09 AM

^ My own analysis was that the premise was that she had sent the song to her ex-boyfriend/lover on a disc, and he had listened to her words and cut them off having heard enough, muttering 'yeah right' and never listening to it again, as in she was telling the truth about her feelings but he didn't think so as they obviously didn't translate into actions and he wouldn't be waiting for her because of that.

It really is a self-depreciating track. She was harsh on herself, young Ayu.

hayasaki · #19 3rd February 2016, 10:34 PM

I am still praying that Ayu will make a full force album with tracks that mainly has 80s vibes mixed with modern sound and rock. Perhaps a sister album of (miss)understood. Ladies Night, Until that day, what else? I love her songs that sounds madonna would have done decades ago lol

Minttulatte · #20 6th February 2016, 11:02 PM

Speaking of Madonna, it would be cool if Ayu released songs like the songs on Rebel Heart. I am deeply in love with that album. It's just so... flawless to me. I was totally uninterested in her music when MDNA was released (there were other reasons too but I won't list them here). I would like to see a song called "Bitch I'm Ayumi Hamasaki" on her next album lol. I know some people would roll their eyes or shake their heads and think this would never happen but I personally wouldn't be surprised at all if a song with that title is released someday lol.

I also think that if Ayu started to release erotic songs, this fandom would meltdown and never get back on their feet.
