MADE IN JAPAN song titles + lyric teasers on social media

[tenshi no hane]

It's really fun to look forward to new lyric snippets every day. It's a nice (and economical lol) way to create a little hype among her followers.

I wonder when the album will be released. I hope it'll be the day the tour starts, but that's probably wishful thinking

Part of me believes she's going to surprise release this but who knows. I just think it's odd to tease lyrics to a new song each day and then....that's it? Nothing else? It would put such a damper on the hype, for me at least. But who knows with Ayu and her team and what they're up to lol

I just want an album cover without ayu on it xD Would be good for a change. White background with a red circle and small black letters in the right corner "MADE IN JAPAN".

So much of "Hamasaki Ayumi" is her image though. A lot of her branding was based off it in her early days as well. Utada was never about her image cause she was never all that appealing.

We'll agree that most of her newer album/single covers were not as impactful when it comes to her image as the old ones though, with some exceptions.

and small black letters "made in China" at the back cover xD

The lyrics previews are small, but are all great. I'm looking forward for this album's lyrics.

omg

The Survivor lyrics are powerfjl, straightforward. I'm anticipating the album and the sound she will end up taking for it. I'd love of we got a mix of modern with traditional Japanese music. The fan made cover looked nice, it reminds me of a shoot she once did in where she was tattooed with Japanese style art.

Dead. Haha

[spanishfan]

^LOL sad but true

[RealLight]

lel, first thing that came to my head was Destiny's Child's Survivor.

But those are some sad lyrics, omg

[inspire_rmx]

loving all the lycris so far excited for the new album

[kotora]

Survivor was a rumor from the album I am... Rumor has it she wrote a song called "Survivor" but replaced it to "still alone"

I am happy with the title!

Wait a sec, we discussed this old rumor here only few weeks ago.. and the discussion was only here...

I hope our arguments and debates did not give her inspirations to write the songs in this album. LOLOLOLOLOLOL

Hi ayu!

I'd love if the cover had various designs of her representing Japanese style through the decades.

This is awesome!

Guys we should treat good ideas to ayu and let her know that it's not ok to recycle another numero shot for album visuals

This is a great idea! I don't think it's going to happen though, probably too much effort

[Aderianu]

don't expect too much. To lost good opportunity is so like ayu

[//ABEST]

she even used Feel the love / Merry-go-round picture on Pray single right after she promoted Ftl /Mgr with same picture on CDL13-14 so i bet she uses every single shots taken. maybe she gives us one of her selfies "oh i haven't released this selfie taken in january 2015 i'll put this on cover"

[Coelacanth]

I'm fascinated by the direction she seems to be taking lyrically, just judging from the first four lyric snippets. But god, I hope she delivers sonically.
