I remember reading it somewhere. The release date got delayed and the cover was changed.

It is a long shot, but I get what you mean.. but yea, like kinomaniac said, this wasn't the itended cover for the album, and was changed to reflect peace after 9/11 .. so there wasn't put that much thought into the cover as to making it fit the songs, but more into making it sympathize with the victims of 9/11.

what do you think? i love speculation like this.
I like your analysis of the covers. However, I think that's where the similarity ends. I am... is hardly a positive, upbeat album. On the whole it is one of the most depressing albums she has ever made, containing some of her darkest songs. The whole global peace and love thing did not come into play until after the album was written and they shot the covers with that theme in mind.

That's what I was thinking; my friend had told me that before, that Ayu was pretty depressed when she was making the singles for "I am...".

Lemme solve this problem for you:

I Am... » it represents something she is is searching for, therefor the sentence isn't completed; she's still looking

GUILTY » represents something that is something.

So, after all those years Ayu finally knows what she is. So when you mix the 2 titles together you would get: I am guilty.

Okay, problem solved; Ayu finally knows she GUILTY ...

Actually, I think MY STORY and GUILTY had more of a connection, which I'll be making a thread tonight.
