I still don't think she's going to include Sunset on the album. Really no need for both of them on the same album, even if it was a double a-side single. In essence they are the same song with different arrangements, it just won't "fit" in an album setting. So I think there's going to be 7 PVs - that's why she made 4 new ones, in line with the rest of her recent releases.

The fact that they both got PVs imo makes it more likely that she will put it on the album along with the making of for Sunset. I don't really see the big problem with including both of the songs as they're inseparable imo. We'll see what she's doing with the songs when the true tracklist comes out, but some people really need to get over their dislike of Sunset, haha. (From what I've seen, no other artist has really done this sort of thing with two compositions and two opposite arrangements since usually they either try to keep the songs both upbeat or both midtempo/ballady, not one of each, which makes it easier to decide to axe one... plus she chose to create Sunset over a completely different ballad that Ayu hated, so I doubt she'd just leave it off and let it die like that ballad.)

^ Why should we get over our dislike of Sunset if it's a totally boring song...? @_@

[ayumint]

i think sunset still gonna be on the new coming album , there are no reasons to eliminate this track out of the tracklist as well.The lyrics and arrangement are different like another
one song. I like sunset LOL

[miskiq]

no sunset pls...i would rather have red line for ta

[Not~Yet]

^^^I think th means that some shouldn't believe Sunrise/Sunset or both are not going to be on the album just because they find it boring or something. Japan loved Sunrise based on the Recochoku downloads and she herself said Sunrise and Sunset should stay together, so it would be really strange for her not to include them. I think there was a long discussion about this in one of the anticipation threads already though.

[nanakopy87]

i don't mind if she includes sunset into this album because i didn't buy her s/s single
i wish that she'll announce it by today or tomorrow

[Lanz16]

wow!!! Is that Ayu?!?

She looks different and much mature not the usual glam gal.

Then again, Kazu...
Oh well, I hope he doesn't "mess up" Ayu on his silly choreography. XD

Im now much more excited to her new album release!

[freedreamer]

I suddenly recalled from that mad party about HUMMING 7/4 lol...and with a night club, I have an image of a fun, high, electro track..lol..
(which leaves me to wonder if Sexy little things is a rock track...i guess it probably is from the transition from Microphone)

[Minttulatte]

^I personally think Sexy little things could be a dance/electronica song.

And I love the pics. Ayu (I almost said Kuu) looks good. I'm curious about the new PVs now. :3 I wonder what they will be like.

[love in music]

Sunrise/Sunset better be on the album just so I can use the new album cover as artwork for the songs on my ipod and get rid of the S/S covers attached to the songs and still have it be official.

That's a really good point......

I think he's okay as a photographer his visions are really good but not well executed who I really hate are the photo editors.

Maybe not so much get over the dislike for a song, but get over the fact that there is a extremely strong possibility this song will NOT be excluded from the album. Not because I said so, because AYU SAID SO.

SORRY AND NOT MAD IF YOU ARE NOT AGREE WITH ME.

I personally don't think I ever said it shouldn't be on the album or that Ayu might not include it on the album... I just think it's a boring song. ^o)

I'm not talking about you personally. I think the song is boring, too. But a lot of people seem to think this song will never make it on the album for whatever reason when Ayu has already stated it will be forever ago. I think that's what TH was trying to say when he said "get over your dislike for this song."

they have different style of photography.you can't expect kazu to have a photo shooting style like ND Chow.If he is able to do so,ND CHOW is not special anymore.

That's true, I'm just not a big fan of his type/style of photography. I like that ND CHOW at least has ayu appear more natural in his photos and has her outdoors a lot of the time. Imagine if she took kazu to London with her, they'd probably still wind up shooting indoors in front of some plain white background for the album cover and not taking advantage of all of the great stuff outdoors like ND CHOW did... or if kazu DID shoot outdoors the cd covers would probably wind up having a photoshopped big ben and other various photoshopped buildings in the background and ayu tilting her head and pushing out her lips

[Kazeyomi]

Shimomura isn't so bad as photographer. His photos are just more plastic/fake than ND CHOW's ones.
Even if he failed hard sometimes D:
I prefer ND CHOW but Shimomura isn't so crappy as almost all AHS said, some pics from his website are really good
