[Official Message] Winter Single 「Zutto... / Last minute / Walk」 2014.12.24 in stores

[Refix]

Maybe there's a code to open a special page when we buy the cd? The first press. Lead to special wallpaper, PV, CDL free ticket and other stuffs on her website or TA. Just like that RAINBOW album. That would be clever.

Well, I've followed you on Tumblr (I'm not much of a tweeter!) and I hope you do continue to post in fan works section here too though.

Anyway, I hope we get covers next week- or is that too early? And as we aren't getting PVs (yet, I hope they will make it on the album!) I hope that the tracks will get good performances at CDL. Without PV snippets, there is a lot less in the way of information snippets to release in the lead up to the single.

Even though I miss some Epic Ayu PVs, after the previous few setsof triologies which were mostly disastreous I am kind of ok with her laying off the music videos for this one.

To be honest I'm HAPPY that there aren't any PVs. Just one example: I absolutely and to 120% hated XOXO because of its PV. I LOVE LOVE LOVE its performance of Premium Showcase. Since then it's gold to me. I mean, I love Ayu, I honestly do. And everytime she releases something I try to see the best in it, because I'm biased. And I tried to interpret XOXO PV in twenty different ways just because I wanted to like it. But I still hate it. After her concert perforamces I get what she was trying to portray and I love its meaning to 120% like I hate the PV to 120%. Ayu is a great artist with great ideas, but the execution should be done by professionals - I think that's the main problem with her PVs recently.
This time I just want a great single, with great music, great lyrics and great cover art. Even if I just get a typical kitschy christmas release I will still be satisfied. For me personaly visuals can destroy a whole song. Becaue I know that for Ayu the visuals are most of the time important and if the visuals are horrible and convey a message that for me isn't acceptable I'm truly diasappointed.
Does anybody know what I mean? xD

I think articaka's graphic work is always mesmerizing. The effects used aren't generally something you'd find on an actual singles release, but as stand-alone graphic works they are amazing. It does take talent to make something so intensive. Even if there is truth to the fact that the style is nt something you'd see in an album's release, it is no reason to be so condescending and blatantly rude as to put down the user for the amount of work they put into such graphics.

Fixed it for you as well.

Back on topic:

I agree with the people saying that her letting go of the mv's for this release is a good thing, she's had a lot of mediocre videos as of late. So i'll be fine with just a couple of stellar songs and hopefully regained inspiration for later releases.

[Violently Happy]

@Andrenekoi what's your problem?! What may seem generic to you, may not seem to others. Shading other peoples work is not nice. I see your posts all the time, and you're so negative. Why must one spread negativity around?

That's just how his forum persona is. Shading everyone and everything. You get used to it after a while.

Are you sure it's shading? Because they seem like full-on drags lol

[freedreamer]

5 more weeks~! LOL Wonder if we will have previews earlier like Colours

Someone (Pieces of Seven, I think) mentioned Ayu posted part of her lyrics to [Zutto...] on some social media site. I don't see anyone else talking about it though. Did she really?!

[AyUmIXx]

^ yes, she posted on her facebook page.
somebody has translated part of it on this thread in few pages back.

Ah, I see it. Well, if the translation is accurate it's not very inspiring or beautiful but it's just one line.

LOL this guy seems to be your typical troll that keeps comming back to fuel the whatever he started an ignors everything else.

adantatu2: if u want i can PM you with some stuff that i use

I appreaciate all the support here, really thank you. But we need to go back on topic, now. ^_^"""

ANYWAYS... i want at least one PV, don't need 3 just gimme one. I miss her winter PVs. Maybe if she put all the effort into one and didn't part it all for 3, it wouldn't look so meh? I mean Angel had potential but they messed it up lol I think the last one i really liked was Sweet scar.
The snippet of Zutto.... lyrics is typica for Ayu, you cannot tell much from it.

A bit off topic but I don't do this often but I just clicked who you are. I loved your Terminal cover edit. If only it was her real cover, then we would have an awesome poster. Though I found it on instagram with an ayu fan account

Spoiler:

Taking a look at the release date...I'm sure, for any foreign person who wants a physical copy of the single...it's going to be most likely delivered AFTER Christmas...
