The point is to try to fool us, or that flareup actually believed that it was going to be in the show while it in fact said it wasn't.

In my opinion that's one of the most excellent CD covers, ever. Clean and artful.

truehappiness · #42 5th November 2006, 06:39 PM

I think that despite the time constraints and stuff, it will probably still look just as fantastic as usual..

The only thing that might be all "..oh no!" is like mixing and stuff..

theprojectzero · #43 5th November 2006, 06:49 PM

I say, just cut the crap and just show me the album cover and tracklist, Ayumi!

Xianghua · #44 5th November 2006, 07:04 PM

I'm so confused. o_o

Do you need anything explained? Just say the word.

You did read the part where they said it won't happen after all, didn't you?

Terri · #48 5th November 2006, 08:02 PM

Frankly, this whole thing is starting to bug me.

It's not the end of the world. Just take some time out to work on the album, don't rush the damn thing. Go out of your way and do some decent PVs and a creative album cover.

If that can't be done, I'm starting to not even want this album to come out.

ermmm.. Just because Ayu decided to record a few more songs, doesn't mean that the songs and PVs that were ALREADY planned/recorded/shot are rushed.. Nothing is changed on that..

We will already get the 7 main songs on the album.. so the only difference between earlier and now is that we get more songs... Worst case scenario? the new songs are bad.. who cares.. it's still better than no new songs at all

Terri · #50 5th November 2006, 08:09 PM

I suppose I expect too much out of Ayu, but I'd rather have no new songs than bad songs.

immel · #51 5th November 2006, 08:15 PM

I can guarantee you that you'll think a lot of the songs suck from the start.

In a year or two you will be used to them, and have accepted them like other Ayu songs, although by then there'll of course be new songs to hate.

explodingbird · #52 5th November 2006, 08:19 PM

Exactly. I think people are thinking this album will be done fast so that automatically equates poor quality. What if you really like the songs? Will you NOT allow yourself to due to your rushed mindset? Listen to the songs for the songs, not for how long it took to record them.

Like truehappiness, I believe, said before, what if we'd found out that all her other albums were rushed? Would that in any way alter your opinions of them? Would you like them less no matter what you originally thought of the songs?

Terri · #53 5th November 2006, 08:30 PM

I really don't care for the time limit or not. It's what she gets DONE in that time span.

immel · #54 5th November 2006, 08:35 PM

Saying that the songs sound rushed will be a very easy excuse now, if you don't particularly like the songs immediately.

In reality we will have no clue what so ever which songs was in fact "rushed", if anyone was, which I highly doubt.

yea.. especially after a tour xD Sometimes a good live (or any live) just fills up the void if you don't find a song that interesting =)

That is so true. There's alot of ayu songs I didn't even like until I saw them live.

etheruraura · #57 5th November 2006, 10:00 PM

Jesus. Like I've said many times before, Ayu has tons and tons of pre-existing material to work with. That means lyrics, compositions, arrangements, etc. Unreleased songs, unused PV ideas, etc. This is what she does. Its not like a month before the mini album comes out, she was like.."omg, my sales are gonna suck, I better add more songs and make it a full album!! I wonder what kind of songs I'm gonna make now in a month..."

Does this mean that JCD@TV TOKYO doesn't think that Secret will be a "noteworthy", in other words "worth the time to pick up and listen to", album? That doesn't sound too good... Sounds like bad publicity...

OT: I would like to know how on god's earth can Avex bend over backwards for Kumi and her new album/single releases, throwing her products out there like crazy without the end result feeling "rushed", unlike Ayu? If Ku can make "rushed" products sound good, why can't Ayu?

Mad_Cactuar · #59 5th November 2006, 10:13 PM

But in a way, isn't it cool? Ayu NOT introducing her album even warrants an announcement. I think that shows that people are actually waiting for the CD.

I kind of like that cover, but I hope Ayu never pulls that off. It'll be soooo dissapointing.

LOL, so many people read the first post and quickly posted instead of bothering with the correct information.

Ugh. That's so true. Give Secret a day or two, and threads with "Ayu sucks compared to Kumi" are sure to crop up.

I have no idea. Probably the money thrown in the projects work wonders. With all her promotion, I actually started liking her songs. Probably it's the same with everyone else.

Because all of her things are done ahead of time.

'GO WAY' or whatever the hell that is was done months ago, so I expect that they recorded tons of crap to make an album earlier.. :|

I mean if they're able to announce a single every time a new single comes out, I imagine that the material had already been finished before the old material was even released. >>

NO. I mean if the album was done by now, I'd think that people would be worried like CRAZY since it would mean that she finished in like 2-3 weeks. >>

I think that they might wait to stick her in the December version of noteworthy albums since she releases at the very end of November anyway.
