ayumi hamasaki NEW SINGLE "Nonfiction" Release 2022.04.22

[AyuCanada]

I find it funny that they finally ignored TROUBLE as an album in the TA mail :-D

[dumbellz]

Just realised we didn’t have a thread for the new album news (didn’t want to create because I may not be active enough to edit the first page haha).

But I am wondering what are some of the songs she will include in this album?

Nonfiction
23rd monster
Dreamed a dream
Ohia no ki?

I was wondering about this, I'm on the fence about whether or not she'll include Haru yo, koi since she already put it on A Ballads 2 however I wouldn't be surprised if she includes it as a bonus track or something of the sort (like how she did with Many Classic Moments on M(A)DE IN JAPAN and You & Me on Love Again)

Also Movin' on without you on A One!

[dumbellz]

I am hoping for a 16 tracks full album like my story. Three interludes will be good. So that would leave about 7-8 new songs

Thank you for sharing the good news! I can't wait for the new album! Hopefully it is a full album and not a mini.

Other potential songs

Pray for you
Haru yo koi
One night carnival
My All (Chinese ver)

4+4 = 8 songs - that is a full album.
She can put Movin' on without you in A ONE, nothing is impossible.

She is good at doing this.

[AyuCanada]

I also expect the album to be

Interlude (hopefully the one from yesterday's concert
NonFiction
Dreamed a Dream
NEW SONG***
Ohia no Ki
Haru yo koi
NEW SONG***
23rdMonster
One Night Carnival
Pray for you (Interlude)
BONUS TRACK : My all (chinese version)

it gives an 11 track album, I donèt expect more than 3 new songs including Nonfiction (4 if we are lucky)

And to be honest, i am fine with it, I would love to have the past years songs in CD quality and blast it in the living room.

Pray for you (Interlude) - if this happened, she would be the outstanding troll .

Best Fiction was my first thought but in case of looks they managed to give it Korean vibes imo.

I listened to the song yesterday, it has good energy but so far I'm not that into it, I'm giving it another listen right now, beginning is good, chorus is a bit like mix of her old songs but I can't tell which ones, the vibe is there though.

[asagarichan]

I can`t wait!)

[cosmicfirefly]

This is so exciting!

do NOT speak this into existence 😭

[Toniayu123]

I can see that coming. But I’m hoping for the best and believe she’ll give us a 15+ track album with kinda high budget videos. I mean, if she wanted to release the album with only 3 new tracks, she’ll release it this summer since she already recorded that amount of new songs already.

[Katsuyuki012]

I think One Night Carnival could be on the new album since the other two covers were also on a tribute album before landing one A ONE/MIJ.
With Haru Yo, Koi she might want to keep it on A BALLADS 2 since it's already on one of her releases, but then again, she might pull a You & Me 2.0, who knows.

"Pray for you" was obviously just a concert thing & I don't want or see MY ALL (Chinese ver.) making it on the album.

And I think Toniayu123 is right in that if she only wanted to give us 3 more songs, they'd be releasing the album sooner than that, since Ayu has recorded several tracks already. I know many of you are just joking but come on, let's have some faith!

[dumbellz]

I am crying… ayu pls if you want to add these songs, at least make it a 16 tracks album

...

I was considering making one but I thought that it might be too early since we only know that the album is coming in Autumn. Maybe it would still make sense to create a thread so that all kinds of discussions (speculating about the tracklist, the title, etc.) can go in there?

[Aderianu]

I made separate thread for the album

[Yoshiaki]

I like this look of ayu...! But doesn't seems fitting as a cover. The song... not liking it at the moment...
