Hi guys I tried my first mashup between haru yo, koi from 2003 & 2020. I know there are some mistakes (I deleted the final file T_T) but I hope you’ll like this previous one. I loveee the 2020 version but 2003 is just a masterpiece for me, so I decided to make this mashup. Enjoy

omg is it yours??? I've just randomly found it on YouTube. I love it! her voice at the original 2003 footage was just priceless. it's a pity they haven't made the studio version with orchestra back that time.

Been listening to Lindsay Lohan’s A Little More Personal album, and it gives me huge Ayu vibes? Like the structure of the songs and the instruments used? The lyrical content? “I live for the day” sounds like it definitely could’ve been an Ayu song lol. Even the cover is reminiscent of Ayu photo shoots lol.
I realize this was the trend of the time, but it really struck me haha.

OMG You’re right the 2003 version is just perfect. Her voice was so clear & powerful at this time. This is pure gold.

Maybe a controversial opinion here, but I feel like Ayu probably could have imitated her 2003 vocal tone/approach to the current Haru Yo, Koi cover if she wanted to (of course, within current limitations - she would never have sounded 'exact'), but she clearly thought that a different tone/approach suited this arrangement.
I like it, it's definitely one of the better releases Ayu's had in a while. Saying that, I hope she changes up her arrangement team - I don't mind Nakano here and there, but greater diversity would really help to renew Ayu's career imo. |

Here’s a controversial opinion: I don’t like the original 春よ、来い cover. I think it lacks power and I don’t like the arrangement. To me, the A BALLADS II version is superior in arrangement and vocal delivery.

With A BALLADS 2's release, what, three weeks away? it'll be interesting to see how Avex promotes the album from here on. It's clear they're trying to build hype. Also, thank you so much M.A.X. for sharing your Haru yo, koi rebirth mix, I'll be playing it on high rotation!!! ![]() |

At first I found the 2003 version superior because obviously her vocal tone was better back then but now after listening several times the A ballad II version I think I prefer this one I feel more emotions in her singing and some sorte of maturity it’s difficult to explain. She lost a part of her beautiful tone but at the same time she improved other things.

Her tone and the amount of emotion she had on her voice back in the 2003 live makes it one of her greatest performances ever.
But there's a sense of maturity, of understanding more how to convey feeling through her voice, that makes the current version more subtle and more complex, in a way, and I really like that. There's some stuff that only make sense for you to produce once you reached a certain age, in the end of the day. |

I feel similarity. I never really got into it. I knew if it’s iconic status but never sunk into it like most. Maybe that’s partially why I prefer the new version, but I also seriously think the new version is superior and better suited to the song itself.

Avex has launched "aNDLESS MUSIC LIVE", a 24-hour endless live stream of music videos with all of their artists like Ayu, Kumi, AAA, TFR, Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra and more.

Happy 9th anniversary to Party Queen!!
Such a controversial album back then, but it had so many innovative things! The AR app was ahead of its time. Also so much undeserved hate towards this album by many! |

I agree, I wonder if it gets hate because people thought she was trying to imitate Koda Kumi. And hey, maybe she was, but some of the resulting music was really good. I think I'm the only one who likes the actual song Party Queen, though, ha ha!

Seriously? It’s been 9 years already? I feel OLD. Party queen is awesome and so was the whole 2012 era with all its drama. I miss those times.
