Its not my favourite Ayu ballad by far but one must admit that not many singers can channel such a powerful feeling without resorting to a million instruments and special effects. Ayu just needs a piano and her lovely voice, ala JEWEL. I personally wouldn't mind it one bit if one of the new songs had a similar setup.

Over all I like the song, I don't hate it. It's just that the lyrics do nothing to me.

Curtain Call is one of my favourites, too. ^_^ Very simple, yet she sings it very powerfully. I love the contrast.

All that's out is the title. All people can complain about is the title. And of course they do...
Oh boy, can't wait to see the cover

16th December? Awww, too long for me to wait...

I'm wondering how long it'll take her to put out another album if You were.../BALLAD comes out so late. if she includes a third single like usual, at the earliest it would come out in February like R/S then an album a month later. but NL was rushed, and she might space things out a little more this year, which could potentially put an album out in May or so. after NL i was hoping for another 1/1 release, but that's impossible this time around.

hidekirby · #**306** 27th October 2009, 11:54 PM

I feel the album will be released in early 2010. Just 2 singles.
edit: she should do another digital single like Together When...
Like that she don't have to release 2 songs. I miss those days when there was just one new song for each single... There were more singles each year and a focus was put on each song.

Ayumiko · #**307** 27th October 2009, 11:58 PM

I like curtain call its a beautiful song but I prefer ayu's other ballads that are more complex in arrangement. I also like curtain call's pv.

Ayu finally released 3 singles this year...but the first one was for next level. I also think she will release a new album after this single...although I would like her to release 1 more single before that. I wonder when the overseas concert will be and if that's gonna affect the album release and next tour dates.

i really like curtain call
i dont mind the lyrics they are beautiful to begin with
also i love the pv is simple and beautiful

im imagining the covers
i hope is simple and lovely like no way to say

love in music · #**309** 28th October 2009, 12:09 AM

why do so many people not like the no way to say cover? lol. it's simple but i think it's cute. i think curtain call is one of her weakest ballads, but i like it when i have it on low volume so i can't hear all the imperfections in her voice.

adantatu2 · #**310** 28th October 2009, 12:57 AM

NO WAY TO SAY cover is amazing,, i like it a lot

But I agree with a lot of people: A song like JEWEL would be great. I think JEWEL and Dearest are my favourite ballads. And I have a weakness for forgiveness, which most people seem to hate. Well, out of 3 one of them will surely suit my tastes. Hopefully all 3 *_*

Edit: Wait, my favourite is memorial address. And fated really grew on me as well. Aaargh. And I also like Days. Dammit, more and more songs come to my mind. Ok, I admit, she can probably do nothing wrong.

Wow, dude, we have the exact same favorite ballads. JEWEL, Dearest, then forgiveness, Memorial address, Days and fated. o_o;;;

Crystal_Ageha · #**312** 28th October 2009, 01:16 AM

I would like the cover to No way to say a lot more if she didn't have that giant pink, puffy coat. >_>

if you wanted a website full of facts, then there's wikipedia for that.

I love curtain call. It's not over the top. I probably wouldn't have liked it as much if it wasn't at the end of an album. idk, I just think it's one of the most perfect songs to end an album...not next level imo...it really doesn't fit. but at the end of guilty or secret, it would have done amazingly. It's so simple and beautiful. not like days or nwts at all where it all power ballad and over the top.

also the nwts cover is horrible. hate that jacket she has on. I want something simple and elegant. not like she's a pink snowball.

In all fairness, this is the information thread for the single, and all the information that's here is the tracklist. It's kind of surprising how much people can talk about 3 phrases... (Not really. I remember we had this many pages last time because of a lack of covers in the thread.)

Just wait for titles like

"Me" or something like "us"

That'll grant a few hundred topics
