I hope Days is as good as she says it is too!



That's pretty much a given considering all the end of the year specials are coming up in addition to the regular shows. I would guess that we are going to hear either Days or Green an absolute minimum of 6 times by January 1st. Unless she decides to do something really cool like perform some of her old classics given that it is her anniversary and A-Complete and all - but I highly doubt it.

A lot of fat people are awesome singers, though.

Yay for amount of promotion! Days must be a totally awesome song <3

[Yoake]

a lot of good news^^
thanks for sharing

[Melrose]

Well she said her favorite songs are Dearest and t2m. And t2m isn't that wtfbbqawesome ala M & Moments, so I'm gonna wait until we actually hear it before I jump from joy. =p

(Though from what I've heard GREEN could be almost as good as Moments. : O )

Wow, so it seems like there's a nice bit of promotion going into this?
That's great

Thanks for posting and the translation.

Exciting post! Seems she excited, too. Makes me really look forward to the coming photoshoots, interviews, the single and of course Ayu herself! She's getting more active again... well, not that touring isn't being active, it must be really tiring her, but active like new material and photoshoots and appearances.

Ayu said she's a girl who keeps her promises, so I'm expecting Days to be an EPIC BALLAD!

[Ayunk]

Can't wait for the magazine scans ~

[yoshino]

yeah.! She must be doing some great promotion.. I hope to read the mag on her interviews this time. ^_^

[ayuzlove]

[MissElin_]

Kind of like Eien no Tsubasa by B'z? (Sorry! That song is an epic ballad!! It made me cry! ) I hope Days will have the same impact that this song and some of the other power ballads B'z put out!

Well, I've never B'z before so... at least according to Ayu standard, a ballad of similar quality to End roll/Moments/HANABI/Together When.../HEAVEN (IMO) is epic.

[Ayumi27]

Cool message!

B'z sound so weird doing a ballad ><;;; I'm too use to their jumpin' rock music....

I hope Days isn't a ballad actually... not unless it's like Together When...

Too use to their songs like "Shoudou"? I guess that would make sense! But then again, I fell in love with OCEAN the first time I heard it! ^^

(Sorry for being off-topic there, everyone! )

I'm looking forward to the covers for "Days/GREEN"! ^_^

That's true, but usually they are doing a completely different type of singing than what Ayumi does which requires a totally different kind of training, and they don't really move around on stage.

That would be nice. Though, I'm not holding my breath because Ayu's ballad's aren't really anything like B'z ballads.

Really? A lot of their most famous songs of all time are ballads. In fact Ayu covered one of them a long time ago, Itsuka no Merry Christmas. (my favorite B'z song)

[Delirium-Zer0]

I didn't like "eien no tsubasa" and "OCEAN" as much as I liked some of their older ballads. "Raging River" is so full of win. Now THAT is an epic ballad (well, at 7 minutes it better be, you know?)

If "Days" is a ballad I hope it's epic. Ayu does epic ballads so well. Her pop ballads are kind of weak, but when she does drama, she does it REALLY well.

I'm not genre-picky though, the song itself just plain has to be good. ^^
