[ayaka] The 7th thread - THIS IS ME ~絢香 10th anniversary BEST~ (13.07)

[owlflight]

Ayaka never lets me down with that gorgeous voice of hers. Lovely song that completely fits the tie in. Can't wait for the single release!

[Delicious n Bold]

Actually lemme put Beautiful back on my iPod.
I need some powerful music today.

number one is a very empowering song , no wonder Fuji TV picked it to be its Sochi Olympics relay theme song

that said despite the song title , it's a pity it wouldn't be able to get #1 on the week of release

Agreed...so who's releasing on 2/19 besides Ayaka (moved back from 2/12...and why?)?

[Delicious n Bold]

I'm confident that her new album will be good. I cracked and listened to number one.
That and beautiful are great!

Why was it pushed back a week later? I'm still wondering, though I've already heard about it...

It hasn't really "leaked", number one is actually available on iTunes and Recochoku (even on iTunes France )!

much as I really want ayaka to get #1 , she's not able to this coming week :x

[Bigtop]

What a shame she's not going to be #1 in Oricon - it's just too competitive, but then again she only had one or two #1 singles before her indies re-debut...

[KarenPang]

number one debuted at #11 on the 1st day of release

[AyuGAME]

i think the cover is insanely very bad, i just dont get it. I understand the concept, but seriously, using that baloon grahic, its like roller coster tycoon game.

[Bigtop]

#11 pukes me...where's the Ayaka from her younger ages? Oh wait, she's "indie"...and how much promotion was there? Same levels as Ayu - very low?

Actually, should I take credit? I'm not sure which version this site uploaded, but it could be the one that I uploaded to JPopsuki...I uploaded it there! (Someone did upload before me first, but it was improper, so I was the first - and only - one to upload a PROPER 320kbps rip and a FLAC version...)
