Thoughts on 1 LOVE PV

[alt.total-loser]

V for Vendetta mask? LOL. xD Guy Fawkes mask would be more likely a correct term. And it only half resembled it.

Anyway. This is her best pv of 2006, obviously. Not much else to say.

I liked it, especially the imagery in it. I liked the auction, and the police getting caught in the end - wasn't sure if it was Ayu because I watched in on youtube and couldn't see that part properly, but it looked like her to me, I'm glad other people saw that too.

For the same reason that every album track is not aired on radio every PV is not aired on TV, it's to be exclusive for the album.

It's very possible it'll air on TV, but it's also quite possible that it won't. I don't think it will considering that momentum and JEWEL was the only two to be added to the list of coming PVs for various music video TV channels.

I can't answer your question about alterna, but I do not think it did.

I have a low quality rip of the alterna pv on my other computer, and it was ripped off some tv station-thingy. o__o So doesn't that mean it aired?

Oh, I thought it had something to do with censorship.

I remember when "alterna" aired and everyone was saying that Japan wouldn't air it on their TV but China did so that's where the first rip of the PV came from and it was pretty bad quality. I was thinking that if they were willing to not air that video, they would probably not air "1 LOVE" because I think it's themes are a lot darker than "alterna"'s.

And that would suck if they never aired "1 LOVE". It needs to air! Everyone must see it's amazing-ness!

That might be the case too, I'm not too well informed about how the recording companies think on this, hehe. In the US it's only the singles that's being played on the radio, Japan works so very differently.

I loved it... And the endning was so good... totally didn't see that coming.

I like her PV's more and more...
Some of them are quite deep as of late...

[darc_aqua]

Very exciting PV. Really liked it. Her dark videos seem to always blow me away.

[norain]

Hmm...did anyone see ayumi fall? I think that was pretty funny, pretty sure it was scripted, but yeah around 2:15 she falls.

I don't get the PV though, reading CES's information she got on it, it doesn't really HELP what the PV was all about...high class people buying human pets...but what about the end, what is the mask representing, etc. etc.

Is it me, or do you guys think that the clown host is the same old man who starred in Momentum? I did a little comparison, and they both have the same facial structure as well as same length of hair.

Or maybe I just have too much time on my hands. X(

I don't doubt it. They probably did all the PVs in a week or even less!

[Neo Daydream]

AHHHHHHHHH!!!! ^^ I just watched it! ^^ Ayu is soooooooo friggin awesome! i love it! finally an amazing Ayu rock song! w00t!

[Moukyoumaru]

I really liked it, but at first, like many other people it seems, I didn't get the PV either xD
I would guess its a commentary about how people don't really care about what happens to other people on the fringes of society? Maybe, or maybe I just procrastinate too much =P

[Syphex]

The PV was pretty standard, no real variation throughout. Shot of her pole dancing, switch to beast, switch to aerobatics girl, then glutton guy, then to some others...and back to ayu. repeat over and over but with different camera angles. A letdown, just like JEWEL. The problem is that this PV lacked any progression or action right up to the very end.

I really liked how Ayu sometimes grabbed the money being thrown at her and threw it right back--it made her look tough and saucy.

ahah, I LOVED that! That was awesome. Subtle, but just great.

The ending blew me away, however. The sudden angle of ayu and the cops kinda just standing in front of the clown while he laughs, and immediate switch to them crawling and screaming all over the main stage to a crowd. crazy stuff.

[[taskin.ayu]]

Best PV this year. XDD Not much to contend with though. JEWEL is pretty close, but this has sexy ayu. XD

Does anyone know what the otaku is holding? O_O

[Namie]

freaky pv.....

[neokyotodragon]

Very creative and entertaining PV.

It's also cool because:

looks like it is a real tattoo after all!

[truehappiness]

That's so hot!

Good eye. Go post it in the tattoo thread now! :O

PVs are generally filmed in the span of 2-3 days. A week would be HELL to have to work on, since it'd be like 6-12 hours a day of filming.. x.x


And all album PVs eventually end up on TV. Like, DUH. They're made to promote the album. HENCE THE NAME. Promotional Video.

We eventually got Ladies Night as we did for all other Ayu PVs >>

[Raleigh]

Neat indeed. Guess it's a real tattoo then.
