what does everyone think of Angel's Song? I've never taken to it, to be honest. I've listened to it a good number of times, but it doesn't really stick.

The music video is totally weird too, though of course it's pretty funny (not completely for the right reasons.) I guess for me the best part of the PV is her beautiful brunette hair.

Angel’s Song pv is so weird!

In a way, it’s the combination of being absolutely stunning looking and having quirky/whimsical elements that defined peak ayu’s artistry. Her stuff nowadays generally lacks those weird elements, which can make the materials less addictive.

Probably the only song of hers I can't listen to I never been really fond of her "cute" songs but personally that one in particular sounds like an "alvin and the chipmunks" discarded song, big skip for me lol

loooooooove angel's song!!! it was one of the first Ayu PVs I ever watched and I was completely mindblown lol

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

Angel’s song is one of my top favorite songs lol and I’ll continue to defend it haha

It’s happy and energetic and always puts me in a good mood and it’s the one song I’ve yet to experience live lol. She’s performed it at the same tour I was going to but when I went it was switched out, or switched in after I already went. Or it’s at the one CDL I skip to travel. It’s so elusive! :p

[Mikytaryan]

I love ANGEL'S SONG and HONEY - I tend to listen to them when I'm down and they put me in a happy mood instantly. I love her mood booster songs.

[truehappiness]

Yeah, Summer diary and Winter diary I think were both multiple days maybe? And then some others that 'were' but were also for 2 PVs at once were from like Party Queen/Love songs.

[kendelle]

ANGEL'S SONG is probably my least fave song lol The MV is also just wtf but it is entertaining.

I didn't like Angel for a long time but never minded Last Angel. I couldn't really appreciate the sound of Angel when it came out but I like it a little more as time goes (the CG was just never good for the MV though).....I guess "Angel" is a slightly cursed song title to me haha

[thinkingoutloud89]

Was A SUMMER BEST remastered like A COMPLETE?

[Aderianu]

Leopard print overflow

[truehappiness]

ANGEL'S SONG is probably among my top legendary Ayu tracks.

FYI to everyone, the mu-mo shop is having a 50% off sale of various TROUBLE-related goods back from the 2018-2019 CDL to more recent merch. The sale went up for TA just now and goes to general public on March 3rd.

Things'll ship to your Tenso boxes on March 18 but DHL is hiking their postage costs by 5% on the 10th LOL

^
tried to finally get that storage box I missed the first time around... missed it again. *sigh

[YUKARI]

What is forever love is such a gem. I think I've just realized it now though I always liked this song.

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

I wish Ayu would do one of those skincare / makeup routine videos that Vogue and Bazaar do. It would be so interesting to watch.

[indigochild]

I swear it feels like she's been pregnant FOREVER lol When is she suppose to give birth?

She announced it 5 months ago. Some suggested she's on 4th or 5th month, or was it in the news? So she's about to give birth right now, or somewhere in next 3-4 months

You all want to check this article out ^^ It's about avex teaming up with an American company specializing in supporting music entertainment. Details in the text. But the best part is that in the headline Promised Land footage is playing and it's just amazing

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

Blah I have to subscribe to read the full article :-/

It seems interesting though!
I’m not as optimistic about jpop being bigger than kpop but well, it’s nice to see some foreign backing of the Japanese music industry haha.

Give Avex money plz.

Edit: What Japan does have going for it is a strong rock/singer song writer scene, which always come back into style. It’s just a matter of time I suppose haha.
