Theme of a-nation 03 is my favourite summer song. The drum is iconic.

I thought that maybe she was just borrowing the a-nation name (was first a-nation in 2002? maybe she didn't expect it to be annual thing) to make it sound like A-nation but she didn't even use the A symbol there. Funny how she didn't sing it during a-nation until many years later. I never considered it summer song though.

I would like the new single be more like July 1st / Inspire / Blue Bird / Fairyland, uplifting and upbeat but not overcute like Feel the love / You & Me.

Seriously? It is literally the epitome of a summer song for me.

I wonder if we’ll get the PV along with the song. I know I shouldn’t have my expectations set too high but I can’t help it. From what we have seen, it is shaping to be amazing, at least visually.

a-nation would often play the same music in a loop in between sets, so I wonder if that’s where it was utilized?

One year they played a slightly reworked Genki Rockets (or something very similar) song on a constant repeat lol 2009 I think…

If Nonfiction is anything to go by we might get some kind of preview. I would love a YouTube short with the intro this Friday and one with the chorus Tuesday/Wednesday next week, that would get me so hyped!

Remember the time when we get an idea about the new songs from short ringtones? That was exciting)

Not going to lie, I miss snippets, CMs and full on leaks! Release cycles were always super exciting because of them!

and the TV drama/Anime opening and ending snippets. Dearest is the best for anime ending. Remember we need to guess the song title while the CM out? They only put "Song by Ayumi Hamasaki" and we had no clue what the new song name was, e.g. July 1st. TUKA is also iconic.. (I still have all TUKA booklets!)

I miss tie ups too.
I think she could have them tbh.

I kind of think she pulled away from them on purpose. (It’s possible the money offered to her was not to her standard as well.)

But at the same time, commercial tie ups in Japan are far less common than before.

In fact, I can’t even think of a current one O_o
I’m sure there’s at least a couple… lol

Dramas are where the biggest tie ups are now, but considering almost every drama has Johnny’s attached, it’s often one of their groups.

*sigh*

Music access is easier than ever before, but I certainly miss the times we used to have.

For me the most precious summer song is You & Me. It was my first visit to Japan, it was August and it was hot AF and she performed it at my first Ayu tour ever.
Anyway, I hope she appears on FNS or something.

We have what four days left and not a single snippet or preview. I can’t believe Ayu did this to us. The torture is too much.

Hace you seen her latest story? She’s showing a new shirt (which I love) and I believe that’s the second look of the PV. There’s some lyrics as well on the back

Goods for the TA summer live???
But… I feel like they’d have to be on sale real quick to get them in time, unless it’s also going on sale at the event space.
