What Ayu song do you identify with most?

[RayJason]

walking proud:
"My lips told a lie
For a trivial reason"

"I'll be my ideal self some day
Though I'm far from that now"

Dearest:

"It would be nice if
we could throw away everything
but what is most important;
Reality is just cruel"

[xLuna&1LOVE]

Don't Look Back, ourselves, Naturally and crossroad

[reixminako]

A Song for xx (especially this song...it's so powerful), Hana (since I'm at that time in my life when adulthood starts to take over the remnants of childhood), Wishing (because I really love my friends and want the best for them), poker face, YOU, POWDER SNOW (because sometimes this crazy world is too much, and I just want to be left alone, go to a place where no one knows me and cry as much as I want, until my tears dry out ), For My Dear..., Fly high, Trauma (especially now at this time of my life), And Then, Immature, TO BE (le infatuated sigh on this one), End roll (a friend of mine recently moved back to her home state...this always makes me think of her now), WHATEVER (because it's been a long, long journey and soon I want to bathe in the sunlight), appears (not for any particular reason, just that the lyrics ring so true), too late, monochrome (one of my theme songs along with A Song for xx and a few others), Who..., kanariya (especially now that I'm training my voice a bit more, lol), Because of You (for obvious reasons), No way to say (my main theme song, tbh), forgiveness, Memorial address (I had a similar experience with my father and I sometimes wonder if he ever truly loved me...And how nice it would be to hear those words from him even if they were lies), Duty (theme song #4, lol), vogue, Far away, SEASONS (really, I can relate to them all...not just listing the trilogy for the lolz, lol), End of the World, SCAR, SURREAL, teddy bear, progress, beloved, BRILLANTE (theme song #5), SERIOUSLY THE ENTIRE GUILTY ALBUM (with the exception of untitled ~for her~), which is honestly my favorite album of hers, THE ENTIRE I AM... ALBUM, which is honestly my favorite album of hers, lmao . Love song, crossroad, Last angel, Virgin Road (I didn't get married, but I did find someone who says he loves and wants to protect me), do it again, Microphone (although I lost mine :{ ), count down, Last Link (this song goes quite well with MGMT's Pieces of What, imo), meaning of Love, You were..., momentum, BLUE BIRD, kiss o' kill, Secret, About You, Moments, walking proud, CAROLS, INSPIRE

A Song for XX and M

[jewelbox]

walking proud
But I escaped from the reality
Escaped from all the pain
I said to myself
"I'll be my ideal self some day
Though I'm far from that now"

POWDER SNOW
I want to be left alone.
I want to escape to a place where no one knows me

And then
I'm very strong when I have something I must protect.
Didn't I say I couldn't stay in a place that's always the same?
Let's leave this city together before the sun rises

End roll
So I walk on.
You'll go too, won't you?
With light shining
on our two separate paths

SEASONS
Today was very sad,
and even if I cry tomorrow,
someday the time will come that I can laugh
and remember the time we had together

A song for xx
I had no place to live. I couldn't find one.
I don't know if I could have any hope for the future

Others: MY ALL,alterna,End of the world, SCAR, MOON.. and some others

[mi|kshake]

Walking Proud

mi|kshake~

[DA1SUK1DAY01691]

I think "walking proud" would definitely define me as a person: just trying to find myself with the help and guidance of others while making mistakes on the way. . .

[C+R+E+AYUMI]

monochrome - Dearest - Like a Doll

in this sequence

[gallowsCalibrator]

So many of her songs!

The most notable being A Song for XX, (miss)understood, and walking proud.

[Kazeyomi]

I've been related to A Song for XX lyrics for a while before. Was my anthem, kinda.
But now.. I'm grown up and at this point of my life, I could relate to other songs and their certain lines though:

Moments

If my life is transient like a flower
I'll be in full bloom by your side
And after watching your smile
I'll fall alone, quietly

If I could flutter like a bird
I would fly to you
And offer my wing
To your wounded back

Love song

I have no confidence
To live a life without love

I don't want to imagine
A life without dreams

Life

You have surely become
So strong and tender
Yes, much more than what you were
After knowing the meaning of pain and love

[impossiblePrincess]

The first Ayu song that I heard and made me become an instant fan is her best song that I can identify the most..I wasn't that aware of JPOP at that time but when I listened and saw the PV of HANABI ~episode II~ i was so moved by the song as If I knew what the lyrics meant. That was when I realized that sometimes you don't need to comprehend the lyrics in order to feel the emotion of a song.

Did I choose the right way?
But I keenly understand there is no answer
Whomever I may ask it to

Please tell me some day that you are happy
And smile

I gently lock the memories away
Leaving them to be beautiful

*sighs* + *smile*

[mon chan]

I find myself in ALL her songs. But for the 1st time I listened For My Dear..., I bursted into tears :
"Everyone has their wounds,
but sometimes kindness
soaks in. It hurts a lot;
so much that they being to cry
...
Maybe I've come to like this person because
I can't hear the words I want to hear the most"

[Corvina]

For me probably GAME, About you and until that Day..., at least in the past those songs did fit so well to my life.
until that Day.. still does fit though and Love song is also a song I can relate to now.
Those songs are just great in lyrics and music.

[asmAyumi1992]

Almost all songs except some Duty and a song for xx era.

[Midori-chan]

I can identify with a lot of Ayu's lyrics, but mostly with the lyrics to

Endless sorrow

What if there was
nothing to believe in,
and what if all that's left
is despair?

If you are left
with no wings...
I still have one
wing left, so...
Together... together...

(This song was the reason why I became a fan of Ayu! I heard this song about nine years ago, when I was all alone, weak and suicidal. In Ayu I found somebody who understood me. She was the reason why I wanted to become a strong and independent person, who fights for what she wants!!).

POWDER SNOW

I want to be left alone.
I want to escape to a place where no one knows me.
That I'm wrong about that, that it's my fault,
is all my heart has. I don't need tomorrow.

Can I scream at the top of my lungs? Until my voice withers away.
The white snow will forgive me for everything.

my name's WOMEN

Do you think you have controlled everything
With a knowing look?
We are not dolls
Who are only dreaming

Do you think you have cheated us well
With a satisfied look?
Do remember
That we are not such simple beings

walking proud

I escaped from the reality
Escaped from all the pain
I said to myself
"I'll be my ideal self some day
Though I'm far from that now"

count down

I don't laugh nor cry
I experienced despair so much in the past
That I became empty, I feel nothing

ever free

Beautiful things are sometimes sad things.

(miss)understood

The lyrics are pretty much my life in a nutshell!

[RealLight]

I don't know, but I always had a strong connection with monochrome, I think it's because I got so addicted to it when I was passing through hard moments, so...

[Sugichan]

let's see, Free & Easy was always one I related to well. I'd say right now Rule and Do it Again are the easiest for me to relate to.

[ayu_ready?]

A Song for XX
and
End roll

definately.and always.

[susiowong]

RAINBOW:

"I've just noticed, in the way
That I was saved by love
Though I tried to keep love away"


And all of criminal and rainy day.

[Mirrorcle Monster]

A Song for XX
I had no place to be, I couldn’t find one
I didn’t know if I had any hope for the future

End roll
I can’t go back
No matter how much I miss it
That time was certainly fun
But that isn’t now
And so I walk on
You’re walking on too, right?
I hope there can be light on our paths
Even though they’re separate

Hanabi~episode II
Why am I turning back again
And following my footsteps
When summer has come so many times since then?

I still remember everything
Your voice calling my name, your ordinary habits
I want to forget and yet I don’t want to forget
