[Official Message] New Single 16 December 2009 - You were.../BALLAD - Page 7

alternarist · #**121** 22nd October 2009, 07:40 AM

yay good news!!! probably ayu is too busy to find a name for her new ballad. so she name it BALLAD.

SURREAL__RAINBOW · #**122** 22nd October 2009, 07:41 AM

About the 'for the fans' song, maybe she's trying to get even closer to them? (Like, she had her fans in 2 videoclips this year, and now a song for/to them!!) She really wanna keep her fans xD I like it ^^

EDIT: Now, I've done my math about what I have to buy (Ayu's 2010 calendar, 3 new single versions, alan's new single and new album = more than 200 USD!!!!!! D: )

I'm really gonna have a poor lonely Christmas XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Why would anyone say that?

She's one of the most devoted artists ever...

if BALLAD turned out to be an up-tempo song then it would be a great title xD

the titles are kinda meh.. I wonder what 'red line' stands for, the red thread of fate maybe? but it's a 3 new songs so I'm happy ^-^

That was attempted (I think) with the high quality download/stream of t2m months before release, and... that didn't work out so well.

Polyrhythm · #**128** 22nd October 2009, 07:59 AM

Initial thoughts....hmmm...alan already did BALLAD....also Red Line is the lamest thing I've ever heard. Second....uh....damn...she's been working with that idiot who doesnt know how to shoot photos....hope this isnt another disaster

C+R+E+AYUMI · #**129** 22nd October 2009, 07:59 AM

But t2m was never meant to be something that was free. In my hypothetical situation, a song that is for the fans would be free and therefore no one would care how much it spreads because it was never meant as something as an income source to begin with.

yoshino · #**133** 22nd October 2009, 08:04 AM

yeah!! tat's interesting.. I so gonna look forward to the covers. I like the titles and the versions that they are coming up with! =)

puddinx · #**134** 22nd October 2009, 08:05 AM

Finally, new single!

Hmm, why is there only You were... making PV?
I hope You were... & BALLAD aren't a similar PV like Sunrise/sunset.

AyumiBest · #**135** 22nd October 2009, 08:12 AM

OMG! SO EXCITING!

i think it'd be better if it was ~for fans~ or something because not all her fans can be in TA

Agree.. I mean, we can't be members of TA, but we buy her CDs from Japan (or, I guess, most of us from HK), I guess that's just as big fans as the ones in TA..

GREAT NEWS!

Me too. Last years "Days" was a god-send to me. I guess since it was such a hit that they are trying to go for something like that again. I hope the songs are as good, if not BETTER!

SOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED for AYU WINTER RELEASE!

Aderianu · #**139** 22nd October 2009, 08:16 AM

I think I will buy the CD only version. Because all PV and making wiil be at the DVD with the album
