When i pay attention to the choreographies during her concerts, that's always what comes into my mind.

The harder the choreography, the duller Ayu looks as she doesn't dance. Usually the more complex moves are used when she isn't around.

Some of her dancers even make choreography for other artist other than Ayu...so basically they are senior and have tons of experience...Ayu choose the best one...

There is also the thing that Ayu doesn't generally make songs like BoA, Kumi or Namie so the way they choreograph them has to be different as well. I am of an opinion that they should dance even less and instead do something else >.<

I like Lelio PV a lot actually. I don't think it looks cheap. She's also very sexy in it. Angel on the other hand with her overacting is the worst.
XOXO is so bad it's good.

[njanjayrp]

I pretty much want to forget the Colours PVS ever existed. To date it's the only ayu album which was available in CD+DVD format and I went with CD only.

[Aderianu]

^same for me. I bought CD only version

[//ABEST]

i re-watched Angel since everyone seems to dislike it so much and now i get it! i thought it was great but after watching it again, holy shit how cheaply it's done

[aliceshields]

Same here, Colours is the only of her album I bought CD version only.

[Earth_maiden]

Talking of over-acting, I love the song Summer Diary but I find the over-acting very cringe-worthy. It's not like she's doing anything new or different... maybe because it's Shuya and I thought we were finished with him playing her love interest...?

[oaristos]

I don't mind the Angel PV, but Lelio and XOXO are embarrassing. Too bad because XOXO is one of the songs I listen to the most

Ugh I just can't stand that video because she wears a white underpants in it and it really is distracting but not in a good way
The other outfit is better where she dances but oh my those PVs...
Merry go round is the best one PV and song wise from that album

[pimenta]

The only PV on Colours that really bothers me to the point I absolutely never watch it is Angel. It makes me cringe because it's supposed to be beautiful, but it was so poorly done it feels kinda comical imo (and it doesn't help that I don't like the song that much either). I'm ok with the other ones, though I wish they had left the original version of Feel the Love instead of the ayupan version...

[JesA]

I began my Ayu fandom right around the era of Memorial Address.. so I guess I was spoiled by amazing PV's like forgiveness, Moments, etc.

I've always considered her to be a showstopping artist in terms of visual media. When I think of what a music video should.. that is, inventive, creative, colorful, giving more life to already vivid songs, etc... Ayu is the first that I think of.

As such.. I thought Colours' PV's were ridiculously bad. I was very disappointed, since I have such high expectations from her. But I do understand that she doesn't have TOTAL control. It's also a labor of the director, producer, etc..

But since Made in Japan has such a great concept, and the songs are VERY high quality, I have high hopes that these PV's will be a nice back to basics effort where we receive the quality product that I credit to Ayu in the first place.

Also.. as a gay man.. I find Shuya to be hideous :-/ Soo... if he's gonna be involved, I'd prefer tastier eye candy

Now that she is using that profile headshot promo pic for promoting the album, I wonder if it means anything for the album cover.

[blackmage]

^ I Love that image of Ayu they have for MADE IN JAPAN that first pops up. Its so vulnerable and her direct gaze with the viewer is intense.

[truehappiness]

I believe if this is album related, she shot it when she was teasing song lyrics on Instagram.



A month ago.

I love the shot too. Amazing evolution from ASFXX/A BEST/etc. to now.
