HAPPY ENDING was the best song from MY STORY. Especially when she performed it live during the tour. From (miss)understood, I love Ladies Night. |

lol Maybe Ayu works best under pressure HAHAHA.
M.A was made under a strict deadline.. and MY STORY was given a few extra months [Started in like May]. ![]() I hope she gets pressured to work harder again! Maybe she'll make songs even better than her hits! :O!

I think it seemed rushed because the 'GEOness' came so suddenly. Single release was Nov, and she finished the album by then..
Most of the GEO songs I think were recorded in a studio in NY.. :\ So some of them were rushed. /shrug though "-Interviewer: ‘MY STORY’ has 17 tracks, so it’s a pretty long album. When did you start work on it? -Ayumi: I began right after this year’s tour was over, so around May or June. I felt very strongly that I wanted to take my time with it. -Did that have something to do with the fact that your ‘Memorial Address’ released last year, was a mini album, and you hadn’t released a full length album since ‘Rainbow’ in 2002? -Last year’s was a mini album, so I feel like for fans who were expecting a full length album, it must have been like, ‘This is it?’. I’m sure they wanted to hear more. So this year I wanted to take my time making this record. Also, during ‘Rainbow’, there was a part of me that didn’t know what I should make my priority anymore, and it felt like I just somehow finally was able to make it into a full album. I didn’t want to feel that way again, and I didn’t want to do that method of creating, or of giving it to my fans. So last year that most that I could possibly do turned out to be a mini album. But I didn’t want to deal with feeling so pressed for time this year, and I didn’t want have a target date set, so I decided to ask if I could start working on it early. -You wanted to put out something that you were really pleased with. So, does that mean that you made the singles you released this year while envisioning the album? -That’s right. I made them with the idea that they’d been on the album. But I didn’t have any kind of concept for the album, I just wanted to put together a bunch of songs that I liked. I didn’t really care if they went together. So I really had hundreds of possible songs, and I gave them to various people to do different kinds of arrangements for, and wanted to just pick the only the ones I liked from all of that." Quoted from article from AHS.

^oh cool! thanks for the article!
MY STORY has a nice flow to it, and the single songs are excellent. However some album tracks weren't as good..

I think MY STORY was more.. free in terms of album songs. I think its one of her most 'album-exclusive' song-albums. 13 new album tracks.. and 4 single songs...:p
<3 Is it?

I like this thread
congrats for the thread creator. I liked the whole concept of RAINBOW and I was happier to see it sort of extended in A Ballads.

I agree, Happy Ending is an awesome song. I am completely suprised how many people hate it..
Anyway, Ayu's music was pure gold, even as squeaky as her voice was until after Memorial Address. Like this? Damn I am a failure at being nice.. Well, atleast I didn't say her music after that sucked. ![]() Spoiler:

Well, it's all a matter of opinions, and in my opinion, her work has only gotten stronger over the years :] Hopefully, she uses D-A-I mooorreee.

Be careful though. Koda Kumi's album is getting promotion over Ayu's single.
/Blah. Her album isn't even a real album.. it's just a BEST >> /falls down Ayu deserves promotion just as much as Koda.. ;-;
