Ayu ~Anything Goes~ XVII

[ayu-michan]

NOW & 4EVA is pretty summer-ish too, depends on your mood.

And that 11 years old kid singing was so impressive, I almost teared up at this transformation of endless sorrow.

[Andrenekoi]

Watching Matsutoya Yumi's Pop Clasiico Tour and wishing Ayu will still be performing at that age

^Yes, that's the original version!

I must remember to listen to July 1st on the way to work tomorrow! I'm really bad at forgetting to listen to that song on July 1st!!

No prob! I can't help but really enjoy that song, even if it is more of a guilty pleasure.

I have another video on Youtube. It's a lyric video for Ever Free but I set it to private due to copyright stuffs that Youtube likes to go crazy over. I literally uploaded it so I could watch it easily. XD

edit

btw, happy July 1st. I really love this song. I didn't care much about it before but I find it to be a really pretty song and the lyrics seem so heart-filled to me. I enjoy the bubbly, upbeat quality along with the almost melancholy, sad feeling. It is one her songs that perfectly fits summer for me. :3

I want Ayu to do an anti-tour. All songs that are underperformed and less known and fan favorotes. Why won't she do thissss lol

[truehappiness]

I think PCDL was the closest we could get to that.

Probably has to do with avex I think. IIRC, they have a say on setlists too, right?

[//ABEST]

^ i bet since they pay it and get the profits from it

Bought A BEST 2 -WHITE- at Bookoff yesterday. there were some mistakes in the booklet and there is a piece of paper with corrections. Mistake 1: CREATE is listed as the composer of Greatful days. Mistake 2: the first column of STEP you lyrics is printed twice.

I've never heard that this happened. Or is this a bootleg?

[truehappiness]

That happened on MY STORY as well. Both releases had incorrect information printed in them during the first press.

We also got an offshot from the MY STORY shoot with the mohawk for the correction paper.

[rainbow_smile]

Thanks! Haven't heard of MY STORY having this issue, either. I don't think I have the correction slip in my copy, probably the seller didn't include it. Do you know what mistakes there were? I want to check the booklet when I come back home haha

It was issue with very "first press" of CD+DVD but I'm not sure about CD only version (I don't have this one in my collection). First Press comes with 4 different covers but it looks like only early prints had mistakes in the booklet. Just one of my copies have correction sheet and booklet with errors so it looks like there was second press of first press...

[truehappiness]

It was HONEY that had the issue.

The earliest pressings of the album included an error on the "HONEY" page of the lyric booklet. Slightly later pressings included a correction sheet inside the jewel case. The latest pressings had the booklet fixed entirely.

From the wiki maintained by Deli.

And ~angel*ayumi~'s comment from 2006 or so:

In the 1st press of My Story there was a printing error in the booklet. On the page with HONEY Lyrics there was the wrong composer, so the 1st press came with an extra booklet that corrects that error (but I guess you only got this error booklet in stores in japan)

HAPPY AYU DAY!!!

[rainbow_smile]

So Ayu's had typos basically throughout her career, and some of those even made it onto the final product, meanwhile we trash her for a typo on her website

[rainbow_smile]

^ I have the CD+DVD version, but wow I should probably hunt for the "first" first press version haha

[Baernash]

^ I just found First Press CD only on Yahoo auction (visible cover it's correction sheet) so CD only was affected as well:

[thinkingoutloud89]

tell me plz, is the CD rip of MIJ better than the rip we had before?

[Uknow!]

^ Yes, I think... For me it has better quality.
