'LOVE' mini album out November 8th, 1st of five 15th anniversary releases [II]

[Zeke.]

Filler on an album with 3 original songs... what is this world coming to? Lol.

[MissElin_]

Those covers are within the best ones she's done in ages. (This including magazine shots). I couldn't care less about the font, it doesn't even bother me. It's so small and mellow it almost disapears and I think that's actually good, the focus stays on Ayu and her gorgeousness.

Well played!

i made 500x500 versions of the covers but since i am not very good at graphics they are still rather blury. maybe someone can clear them up.

cd+dvd

Spoiler:

cd only

I can't wait 4 got it! I think this mini album have 2 parts: the one is the ''progress'' part, obviously ''song 4 u'' is similar, like progress song, and all the ''Tales of Xillia'' songs will be come with a mini-album release.
And the second part is the continuation of ''Love songs'' the other two songs sounds like ''MOON'' and ''Last Angel'' for example.

I thought the albums were reverse?

Is the one with the closed eyes CD only?

[Tomoyo]

all my sources and what i have read that is the proper order. i'm trying to clean them up and make them clearer but i don't have the skill

[Delicious n Bold]

Whenever someone says 'oh (this) song is amazing!' I end up thinking that the song has been released already and I've been listening to the 2 minute LQ rips nonstop for nothing
I listened to the rips at least 70+ times already.

[Tomoyo]

i'm not sure how i feel about melody yet. i guess i need the full version of that song to decide but as far as missing and song 4 u go i love them and i love the covers for this album so i am totally buying it!

I love the covers! Too bad i'm getting the cd+dvd one, i prefer the cd only a little more but well it doesn't really matter, they are both stunning

i was just listening to Sparkle yesterday and was thinking the same thing. She should have something unconventional and epic once again. (last one was probably BRILLANTE...but I want more Sparkle!)

[Zeke.]

You guys are funny making higher quality versions; why not just wait...? Lol.

[MissElin_]

^I'm restless and have nothing else to do?

[TeamAyu2004]

Man.. I may have to order the CD version too just so I can have that photo...
that makes me mad!

[happiholic★]

You guys don't understand how happy I am that she's not wearing contacts. And this is coming from a long time contact wearer. The colored variety, of course. Perhaps she's not wearing them in this cover because they are supposed to represent simple and natural love? And contacts are just too over the top?

[TeamAyu2004]

^ it might be the natural look they want for the magazine cover?

[Ayu-roBeat 13]

To be honest I'm not crazy about the new covers. When I caught a first glance of them outside of this forum I didn't recognize them as Ayu until I zoomed in and saw her name on them!

it's avex, they do everything the last minute lol

[truehappiness]

Probably because Missing has more appeal or something.

The tracklist wasn't changed until the day of the finale since it was printed as we knew it on the leaflets!

Her 2012 vocals are so much better than her 2002 vocals imo.

[leoberlin]

I remember when Rule/Sparkle was announced the tracklist included "Sparkle" video (CDJapan had the information). So I think avex will put "Melody" video in the final album or maybe not.

Sincerely I prefer Melody. The chorus and the instrumental music are both great.

(off topic) about Rule/Sparkle:
