[LOONAppears]

Fonts have never really been Ayu’s forté so I don’t mind it LMAO
All I have to say is that mother’s serving and I’m so excited for this single + the album later in fall!! My first era with Ayu ��❤️

I'm super excited, just saw the TA message about this and the new album in Autumn!

I kind of dropped everything when my son was born and have had no time to listen to music and new releases but I'll make a huge effort to listen as soon as it drops!

Thank you for sharing the good news! I can't wait for the new album! Hopefully it is a full album and not a mini.

[Yoake]

I'm in love with the song!!! Nonfiction has what 23rd Monster and DoD were missing. I want it in HQ now!

[hidekirby]

The amount of photoshop and particulartly airbrush is way too much on that cover. She's such a natural beauty I don't understand...
Next release there won't be any separation between her jaw and her neck seriously. The hard white light / levels are not helping either.

The recent "all pink" picture was more interesting as a cover than another beauty shot IMO. But at least that beauty shot is not beige and the infamous fishlips are nowhere to be found. They may keep the pink picture for the DVD release...

Watching the stream and witnessing a live performance of a brand new song felt like the good old days. It was so exciting! Can't wait to hear the studio version !!!

I find it funny that they finally ignored TROUBLE as an album in the TA mail :-D

[dumbellz]

Just realised we didn’t have a thread for the new album news (didn’t want to create because I may not be active enough to edit the first page haha).

But I am wondering what are some of the songs she will include in this album?

Nonfiction
23rd monster
Dreamed a dream
Ohia no ki?

I was wondering about this, I'm on the fence about whether or not she'll include Haru yo, koi since she already put it on A Ballads 2 however I wouldn't be surprised if she includes it as a bonus track or something of the sort (like how she did with Many Classic Moments on M(A)DE IN JAPAN and You & Me on Love Again)

Also Movin' on without you on A One!

[dumbellz]

I am hoping for a 16 tracks full album like my story. Three interludes will be good. So that would leave about 7-8 new songs

Nonfiction
23rd monster
Dreamed a dream
Ohia no ki?

Other potential songs

Pray for you
Haru yo koi
One night carnival
My All (Chinese ver)

4+4 = 8 songs - that is a full album.
She can put Movin' on without you in A ONE, nothing is impossible.

She is good at doing this.

[AyuCanada]

I also expect the album to be

Interlude (hopefully the one from yesterday's concert
NonFiction
Dreamed a Dream
NEW SONG***
Ohia no Ki
Haru yo koi
NEW SONG***
23rdMonster
One Night Carnival
Pray for you (Interlude)
BONUS TRACK : My all (chinese version)

it gives an 11 track album, I donèt expect more than 3 new songs including Nonfiction (4 if we are lucky)

And to be honest, i am fine with it, I would love to have the past years songs in CD quality and blast it in the living room.

Pray for you (Interlude) - if this happened, she would be the outstanding troll .

do NOT speak this into existence 😭

[asagarichan]

I can`t wait!)

[cosmicfirefly]

This is so exciting!

[Toniayu123]

I can see that coming. But I’m hoping for the best and believe she’ll give us a 15+ track album with kinda high budget videos. I mean, if she wanted to release the album with only 3 new tracks, she’ll release it this summer since she already recorded that amount of new songs already.

[Katsuyuki012]

I think One Night Carnival could be on the new album since the other two covers were also on a tribute album before landing one A ONE/MIJ.
With Haru Yo, Koi she might want to keep it on A BALLADS 2 since it's already on one of her releases, but then again, she might pull a You & Me 2.0, who knows.

"Pray for you" was obviously just a concert thing & I don't want or see MY ALL (Chinese ver.) making it on the album.

And I think Toniayu123 is right in that if she only wanted to give us 3 more songs, they'd be releasing the album sooner than that, since Ayu has recorded several tracks already. I know many of you are just joking but come on, let's have some faith!
