I'm not a native English speaker (obviously, XD)

It does sound a bit weird if not a little old fashioned to me. Forever love could easily be substituted for "eternal love" or "everlasting love". It is likely easily to sing the phrase "What is forever love" instead of "What is eternal love" or "What is everlasting love".

[brener]

I need covers asap so I can decide if I will or not pre-order this release ><'

In "What is forever love?" verses I think that she's being ironic and trying to say that a "forever love" does not exist after all.

I think you are right, it's not sneezing, but get back at you...LOL!

[truehappiness]

I don't really hear a 'get' though... sounds like she's saying 'yeah, at you' or something.

[Raiu-Ayu]

I thought she was just saying "get a-a-a-a-a-at you"

[jyujiw]

These previews just blow me away.

[visionfactory]

This album will be a new gem to add to her discography!!

Hopefully!!! with title and complete tracklist hopefully.

in about 8 days we are getting HQ versions of 2 songs! HANG IN THERE PEOPLE HAAHHA

[ayuuk]

Which new song is by Armin?

[truehappiness]

It seems the general consensus is that it is probably Terminal. We'll know for sure tomorrow when Armin plays the club mix on A State of Trance.

[primavera♥]

Can we please get the title and cover though....

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

I'll be surprised if Armin's track is Terminal, considering I though his would've gotten a video. But it does sound most likely.

A fan posted their thoughts of Terminal in a blog entry.

絶望によって暗闇になってしまった世界に愛する人を助ける為に自ら光を放ち銀河の様に美しく輝く世界を創る Ayuを連想しました。
私が、今回の新曲の中でDLした中で一番好きな曲です。
この題名の意味は、「航路」や「ターミナル」という意味ではなく、「終末」、「末期」という、とても重い意 味だと分かりました。
歌詞が衝撃的です。
一番インパクトがありました。
ここまでインパクトのある歌詞を書けるのは、Ayuだからなのですね。
透明感のある本当に銀河系の輝く星達の様に美しい歌声に聴き惚れました。
当たり前の事ですが、Ayuの歌声は本当に美しいです！

Seems like it was their favorite track due to her voice and some really impactful lyrics. They talk about the title and how the meaning is more like 'the end' in the sense of death or finality in general. (末期/終末 as opposed to an airport terminal or something like we'd thought)

[tenshi no hane]

I'm in love with Lelio. I'm trying not to replay the preview too much

[waterballoon]

Round 2 of impressions after playing the previews more!

Angel: still my least favorite.. still think it's what I hear when I'm high on vodka & weed in a club. oh also it sounds like a track one of the contestants in So You Think You Can Dance? will play to their "freestyle" solo

Lelio: Don't really like this too... I like the sound of the snippet but I don't think Ayu & it goes well together.. if we gave it to maybe Namie Amuro it'd be better cos her voice is so annoying & 101% she will butcher it further live

NOW & 4EVA: best one so far.. sounds like it would fit right into Gundam series.. it also sounds like a Maki Goto song. the melody brings us to the early 00's, nice!

Terminal: why does her voice sound different here than the other previews? but I LOVE how dark it is.. could be an epic track if it continues like this

What is forever love: IDGAF about goat boy although I wish he wasn't there.. it's my 2nd favorite though embarrassingly because the melody is SO CHEESY like one of the 90s Backstreet Boys/N' SYNC songs lol

XOXO: I quite like this one too.. it gives a similar vibe to Lelio but her voice suits this a lot more.. the lyrics oh God I bet she was doing weed & scotch with Timmy, then Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" plays in their mansion & Timmy goes, "OMG you need to paraphrase the lyrics into Shake It 2014!!!!!" still enjoyable though

now I wish they didn't put Pray & Hello new me in the album.. so out of place. i'm guessing Hello new me is #1 and Pray is #10. and I want more EDM ballads like Merry-go-round!!!!

It's sad the song isn't getting a PV and prolly won't get any public exposure either...

[orangeakira]

After listening to the previews, I don't think that ayu's voice works well with some of these songs. idk maybe it's just this album? Her ayumix trance albums are amazing, but her voice sounds really...idk...unfitting this time around. I think I'd like it better as an all instrumental album if most of the songs are going to be dance-y. Her voice is just really high pitched and not very strong. It sounds loud, but not strong. I feel like when you make a dance-y type of song you need a certain type of voice to fit it. Not that I'm not going to enjoy these songs because the previews are really different from what she usually does, but listening to something like this and then listening to Lelio, I gotta say it's kinda off putting.

[ayumisrael]

Yeah Terminal is amazing, I wish it could get a PV.

Everyone should be happy that Terminal is about death and not a love song (like ayu lacks a lot of these haha). =)

And people don't forget that these are previews so it's not like Angel will be only "I want to be an angel for you" the whole song, so it might have more special parts.

What is forever love kind of reminds me of Like a doll and it sounds good!

I really wonder if there will be a throw off to Cindy's Girls just wanna have fun with XOXO XD
