I am... GUILTY connection?

[ohsixthirty]

this is probably a long shot and just me being bored, but i was wondering if anyone else thought maybe there was a connection between I am... and GUILTY? it just popped into my head when i realzed that both album covers are shot in the desert.

on the I am... cover ayu comes off as being very pure and innocent, sort of like mother nature or some sort of goddess of peace, the sun is behind her...whereas on GUILTY it seems like the roles are flipped and she looks lost with the sun in her eyes, kind of like an animal in her leopard print dress.

also, I am... as an album dealt mainly with peace, hope, and love on a global level if i remember correctly. it was an overall upbeat positive album for ayumi. GUILTY though again seems like the opposite of that, being an album about personal loss and pain and overall very dark.

what do you think? i love speculation like this.
