Does anyone else think it's weird that Ayu hasn't performed at the Budokan?

I thought about it few times. Every single artist performed there, no? Like budokan here there :O but Ayu didn't go there.

^GACKT never performed there as a solo I think, only with YFC as a goodbye concert. Honestly i somehow have an asociation with retirement/dissbandment when it cmes to Budokan lol a lot of artists seemed to have performed there exactly for their final concerts of their carreer.

So i've been listening to Kuu's Bon Voyage a lot latelly, i just fell for that album. And um I really am diging that kind of burlesque sound like Kuu's "Lets show tonight!" I think it would work so well for Ayu! But i'm a bit afraid her PVs would end up being unwatchible do to her overreacting lol But i'd love to hear somethign like that from her. In general i adore the styling or 50s and 60s, would love to see her having an era of that haha~

I'm not sure if this is new or not, but there is a Taiwanese article about Ayu and it says sth about her trying to get the green card and selling the Kanagawa mansion.

So if anyone can translate it, it would be appreciated

it talks a little about her previous marriage with her ex-husband mannie who they refer to as an AUSTRALIAN MODEL (geography fail) and her plans back then to live in L.A until the 3/11 earthquake disaster happened and they didn't fulfill the American immigration regulations.

The main thing they are trying to say is that her marriages are attempts to get right of abode in the U.S.A and selling her kanagawa mansion is reported by the media as a way for her to get an American green card

Hmm, I never usually am one for best album but I kinda want her to release A Ballads 2, similar to the theme of the first with remixes, new vocals etc.

Tracklist would be something like this. Not in this messed up order tho.

Disc 1:

POWDER SNOW
SCAR
No way to say
HANABI ～episode II～ (not sure if this is even conisdered a ballad)
forgiveness
CAROLS
walking proud
For my dear...
Will
HEAVEN
rainy day
JEWEL
Together When...
A Song for xx (14xxxxx Session #3)
New song

Disc 2:

teddy bear
End roll
Days
BALLAD
you were...
crossroad
Virgin Road
beloved
how beautiful you are
SAKURA
Sweet Scar
Hello new me (also would this qualify as a ballad?)
Pray
New song
Haru yo koi (2nd yuming cover)

The songs are remixed and some have new vocals on them, especially the pre 2004 ones.

Perfect for the upcoming winter season.

Guys, I received an email from TA today. Has anyone else received it as well? Can anyone translate or tell what it's talking about, please? I tried to google translate it but didn't understand much. Seems like it's something about renewing the membership and expiration dates?
