Thoughts on 'talkin' 2 myself' full version

[v3lun420]

c'mon. What's up with u guyz. I been listening to talkin'2 myself for say almost 50 times. And guess what. I am not get BORED at all. The tunes, the rhymes, everything about it is so catchy to me. And the Lyrics are just awesome. The song ROCKS

Quote from other thread by Masa:

Nani o motomete samayou no ka?
Tabiji no hate ni nani ga mitai?
Kimi wa ittai nan ni obiete
Nani o sonna ni nageite iru?

Sono me ni utsuru mono ni atama o
Shihai sare sou ni natte iru to iu no nara
Kokoro no koe o kiku n da

* Genjitsu wa itsu datte itazura ni bokutachi o furimawasu
Dakedo hora sono naka ni kimi dake no kotae ga sou kakurete ru
Mitasarenai omoi ga moshi aru no nara sore wa kimi jishin no te de
Tsukurareta mono

Kimi wa ittai doko e ike ba
Hontou no egao mitsukerareru?

Sono ba shinogi no kairaku no ato
Otozureru handou o kakugo shita furi o shita
Genjitsu touhi wa mou owari

** Jouhou ga yuuwaku ga afurete ru konna toki da kara koso
Bokutachi wa sorezore no sentaku o shite yuku beki na no darou
Hakai suru koto ni yori souzou wa umareru to iu koto o
Kimi wa shitte ru

* (repeat)
** (repeat)
--------------------------------------------------
What are you wandering for?
What do you want to see at the end of the journey?
Whatever are you scared of
And what are you sighing over so much?

If your brain is about to be controlled
By the things reflected in your eyes
Listen to the voice in your heart

* The reality always makes us run for nothing
But look ! Your own answer is hiding in it
If you have an unsatisfied feeling
That's what you made by your hands

Wherever should you go
To find a true smile?

I pretended to be ready for the negative feelings
That would come after makeshift pleasures
I end up escaping from reality

** Just because this is the age full of information and temptations
We should make the choices of our own
You know
That creation comes after destruction

* (repeat)
** (repeat)

Sorry. I dunno how to qute from other threads and post it to this thread

An album and a single is a totally different thing though ^_^.

^Well I don't think nearly as many forum members liked "STEP you/is this LOVE?" as they did "HEAVEN" and "STEP you/is this LOVE?" sold more. I did not like HEAVEN at all. It isn't a terrible song, just a complete disappointment.

[freedreamer]

the song gives me strength!

[TITANIC]

this song make me strenght

So what if it sold less? It still had good sales, and just one of the songs was used to promote the single in lives etc. (Except for one CM with Will).

STEP you is this LOVE? both were a-sides/ had PVs TV airs and been performed so most likely... it sold a bit less, but still had really good sales. and 1,500,000 Legal downloads. ^_^

HEAVEN and Will are huge songs and their sales/quality are far from being disappointing imo.

[cater2u]

i think talkin 2 myself will sold 150000 *_*

[My Rainbow]

HEAVEN a dissapointment?

[Nikki]

I just heard this song for the first time and I LOVE it! Ayumi's voice sounds perfect. This song is going on repeat

[AyUmIXx]

her voice is so powerful!

[rikku411]

This song is by far one her best!!!

It's just awesome... I like how the verses and the choruses differ in beat. That just makes it awesome.

The lyrics are here: http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=63075

I think it's kind of a angry, 'get a hold of yourself' song that becomes hopeful in the end: "...creation comes after destruction"

I'm addicted to the song haha o.O

I thought 2005 was her best year as far as singles go. I'm a huge fan of both singles you listed there. How was HEAVEN a disappointment? Just the song or the entire single? Will is an amazing song IMO.

[kaue_]

1LOVE is really nice, but it's not a masterpiece imo. this on the other hand... wow. I love Ayu again.

the best part of the song for me has got to be that killer bridge...man...those guitars and strings are the perfect combo.....

[s1012h]

1 LOVE was pretty amazing
WAS my favorite ayu song until talkin' 2 myself came out XD
i'm a rock junkie, what can i say

and i liked the fact that 1 LOVE became very significant to her, mainly during her breakup, since the lyrics were in her teamayu entries

There have been times when people from Japan said they were getting bored of Ayu by now. She's been singing for nearly ten years. People get tired of the same thing after awhile. But of course, I'm not referring to myself when I say this. I love Ayu and will always support her.

I actually think that more people on these forums got tired from her more than the japanese fans lol.

ayu is still doing huge though, being one of the tops after 9/10 years that she's a singer (mainly in Japan) is just wow.
