'LOVE again' composers/arrangers and new track lengths

[SURREAL__RAINBOW]

14. Ivy
music: Tetsuya Komuro
arrangement: Yuta Nakano


No wonder this is my favourite song in the entire album (so far).

I didn't check the composers for when LOVE and again got released, so yeah lol

I was hoping for more TK but I had already assumed it wouldn't be the case haha.

I can't waaaaaaait!

[AyuWorld]

wow! I loved Snowy kiss so much! and Ivy too and both actually from TK haha,he really is a masterpiece!

[TeamAyu2004]

interesting.
thanks

[Jawdarna]

I'm glad there is a lot less TK this time around.

[mizuki-7]

I would like she works with news people or others composers/arrangers ^^

[AyuGAME]

Now we know why this album sounds so nostalgic...

[C+R+E+AYUMI]

thanks for posting

No wonder I like untitled 2
Tago didn't touch it!
YESSSS

And wasnt Nakano part of HAL?
No wonder Ayu uses him/her a lot.

Also I agree that she should use new people
Most complaints I see are because she reuses old composers like dried up tissues.

I'm glad there's only one TK song...I'm not really a fan of his work -- too stuck in the '90s for the most part, in my opinion. Ivy is good, though . I think there's just enough of him in this album.

There are three! You & Me/Ivy/snowy kiss.

Yes, and it seems he was the good part of H/\L before he left. Now H/\L is dead, lol.

Oh goodness! Well...at least it's not the majority of the album, like Love songs. I really like You & Me, though. snowy kiss is okay. He's not a bad composer...a lot of his songs just sound really dated.

Kunio Tago?!?! omg..the dude who gave me Together When... now im very pumped for them. Gloria and Bye-bye darling (which reminded me of blossom) sounds very Hoshino indeed.

[krazeyo]

hmmm Yasuhiko Hoshino maybe thats why I keep getting ASFXX vibes

[Zeke.]

I dislike Return Road. I also feel like it wasn't mastered properly when listening to certain parts of the chorus - it sounds almost screechy, as if there is too much going on and the speakers can't handle it.

[JinHamasaki]

This album is turning out to be much better than I thought! I don't think the problem is her composers, but rather her arrangers need to be different. I think ayu has a strong set of composers that know her voice really well. I think new arrangers will really take her to the next level.

[freedreamer]

btw, with these leaked...is that a sign?

[truehappiness]

Arrangements tend to date songs imo more than compositions. (see ASFXX)
