The different editions are not all counted together anyway on the charts.
The two minis are charting seperately and I suppose the FC edition is going to be counted together with the CD+DVD edition as the title and main content is the same. And that's what we will probably see charting higher - CD only editions are usually the ones being bought the least, especially here with them being mini only, not the full album.

Hi,

I'm here to help you. Of course you can order FC edition on playroom store, since AVEX publicly share the playroom (mobile fan club) store link.

Did you remember they cancel re(CORD) orders on KODA GUMI last year. I shared this playroom store to my American friend. She doesn't have playroom membership, but she still got the re(CORD) FC edition after all.

You don't need playroom membership to place an order, because they won't ask for your playroom membership number. You only need mu-mo account to place an order.

^ Thanks for the clarification!

I had to dig into my history to find where I saw the link, but Avex shared the FC mu-mo links at the bottom

[chocopockymaster]

omg thank you for the link!!! I hope they don’t cancel my order lol

[Ayu_Love]

Thanks so much for the link! I'm trying to decide if my wallet can handle the price of the FC edition since I predict it's going to be over £100 to buy it and get it shipped to me with all the costs.

I've never been able to get an FC edition before though, so I would love if my first one could be on her 20th anniversary. I do love photobooks too.

Go to the top

Still love the song so much . I remembered I was so obsessed with the covers & promo pictures and I still do up to now

[kaled kalil]

Go To The Top was her last big era, and such a comeback. The pink hair, the iconic ViVi cover, the #1 single even tho it was a bundle with the Premium Night tour, the almost "too revealing" outfit for Kouhaku.

I was seriously expecting her to go Moon Crying route after giving birth, and then it came the ViVi cover looking hotter than ever.

[KarenPang]

lol at the gif x)

I thought Kuu would ditch her ero kawaii image after she became a mum but nope ;D

I was so obsessed with the promo images & covers for Go to the top back then & I still do up to now

I love cats & red is my favourite colour so double win

[minkAYuko]

It was a great era.

Maiko posted some background info on her Insta:

She was doing the motion capture for the dancing for the PV.

[kaled kalil]

The choreo always felt very Maiko, nice to see she was the one behind it.

If anyone care, I found the demo of PARTY:



Still want to find Lola Blanc's Slay (W FACE) and Cherry on Top (KKXX), Cake (k,) from other produces.

[thinkingoutloud89]

It takes away from Kumis songwriting-skills when she is like only translating portions of it into japanese

[kaled kalil]

I mean, it's literally a party song, there is not much room left to change since she likes to keep the key words. I believe it gives a little more personality to the song than just plain singing the song in english, even tho sometimes the lyrics just doesn't make sense at all (ScREaM).

Even tho I'm not a huge fan of WHO, the lyrics were a major improvement than the generic "Imma bad bitch" type of song that it was.



From:

All I wanna do is turn up with my crew like ladi-dadi-dadi
We be living that fast life, this is what it feels like Ladi-dadi-dadii
Up town, downtown front row we partying LA to MIA
All we in the city all my girls looking pretty Scream ladi-dadi-dadi
(Even we don't give a)

To:

Who's worrying about stupid ratings? Who, who, who??
Happiness? Unhappiness? Yeah, the one who decides that is who, who, who??
Up down up down - a trip to my dreams, uhlala, where to?
I wanna stay as "me" Ladidadi dadi
(I never give up)

Lol I always forget that WHO is a Romanian song, (even though the original had English lyrics). It's still one of the best from AND.

mmhmm, thank you for that! always interested in demo versions, (wish I could find demos from ayu as well). so interesting! is there a collection of inks or videos where I can find all in one place?


and I agree with thinkingoutloud89 about her songwriting... very often it makes next to no sense how she jumbles seperate words of jaoanese and engrish together. I find it very jarring.

[thinkingoutloud89]

^other then the ones from Sweetbox (which exists as songs) ayu usually des not have demos since the tracks are written for her.
