Microphone PV

[mui-gei-tal]

a very interesting PV that i've seen from her for a while now~ i love the touch screen thing she does and the surprise at the end was nice~

[yabieru]

I seriously LOVE this pv *O*

[SheFliesHigher]

That black guy with the mop had some killer moves!

[Picaflor 7/4]

wow. That video had me going "what is gong on? I don't get it" till the veeeeery end when ayu herself holds the video in her iphone looking thing for the next pv. it all took place on a video screen. Still don't really get it though.

Does microphone sound less rockish to anyone else now? when I heard the lower quality version, it sounded so much more visual kei rock, and now hearing it in high quality, it sounds so much more pop. Still like it though.

Omg I love the PV <3.

This is my interpretation (I'm just saying what I got out of the PV, I don't know what's right or wrong):

The lyrics seem to speak a lot about ambivalence and emotional conflict. She's speaking of someone she loves, yet can't stand sometimes. Even the song is a contrast between two different emotions since it goes back and forth between rock and ballad-y.

Therefore we get conflicting views of similar people. The two girls are skipping one moment, next they're not. The woman in the navy (?) uniform is acting all responsible one moment, then ripping her uniform off the next. Even that creepy mime guy, if you looked at his mouth, one side was smiling and one was frowning. All are showing ambivalent feelings.

This is just what I got out of it though .

since i didn't see this thread until now...

my post from the other thread, lol.

that PV was epic, lol. all those people really freaked me out! i didn't understand why ayumi's finger kept touching the screen like an iphone or whatever, but then the ending came and i'm like "....now i get it!", lol. ayumi is so cute in that SLT outfit. such an awesome PV. i just loved it!

[Kikaru]

Amazing.

This PV is everything that MW PV aspired to be but failed to be. I watched this after I read the lyrics, and I thought the PV corresponded really well to the lyrics. (not to say that the pvs are copies of each other. They both just had this really abstracted feel and in a foreign place)

Also my art history nerd loved the cathedral painting backdrop.

But IMO the best part of the PV is that I feel like it was polished artistically. It was well-executed, and well-edited.

And totally random, and pretty much my only complaint, but as epic as the dress is, and as much as it fits the PV, that was way too much ruffles for someone as tiny as Ayu. There were several shots where Ayu looked like she was getting swallowed by the attack of the ruffles. (however, it worked with the PV so that's all good)

Edit: I agree with Aozora in the ambivalence interpretation.

Wow, that's a really cool interpretation.

So... inspiring.

It is not a McQueen dress. The red dress at the end = McQueen.

Black ruffle dress was by Ayu's personal costume artist, Akira Noda. He does all of her custom Swarovsky outfits and tour clothes.

The janitor guy in the pv reminded me of the walking proud pv, and the randomness of the people reminded me of parts of alterna.

Oops. I don't know why I switched the dresses and designers in my head.

Makes sense to me! ^-^b

Not bad not bad...It was mildly entertaining . I liked the ending...how it was all on that camera and leads into the Sexy Little Things PV.

And thanx a lot for posting Empry! The quality was nice too!

[RyRyMini]

Wow, really cool. I like the touch screen effect a lot!

The beginning with her catching the guitar is my favorite.

no, that's the end Sexy little things is first

[rakeru]

I love it, even if it leaves me confused every time. I'm dying to know the significance of all those random people, and I wish the lady with the megaphone could have been more intense (more like Ayu, actually).

[AyUta]

Haha, interesting PV. I liked it . I liked the janitor guy a lot XD I just wish they had a little more ayu in there.

[mobius]

haha, typical Ayu PV with all the weirdness. Feels like I'm watching the PV thru a touch screen phone, which is it at the end. I love the video!

[StaRR&]

omfg loved the MV. it's been awhile since she came out with a good MV....the last one i really liked was together when and that was a while ago..

[PoetGirl]

Im like @_@
