Ayu ~Anything Goes~ XVI

[Ryusei]

I love the version with JUNO

[truehappiness]

Wow uhhh...

I just was listening to a Singapore radio station called YES 93.3... and they use the instrumental for meaning of Love in one of their trailer spots.

[truehappiness]

Yeah, there was a CD only, CD+DVD A and CD+DVD B. I believe it was because one had a BLUE BIRD making and the other had Beautiful Fighters' making.

Also BLUE BIRD was originally a triple A side.

I think we could get a fansite like that eventually but for now I just use the Japanese monochrome site which has been updated since like 2000. Also nick is still here but doesn't like Ayu too much.

^ THE Ayu resource IMO from Japan. AyuLoveAyu was also good for a bit and one other but they stopped doing stuff for a while.

I used to love looking at the bootleg section on eneabba, it really is interesting.

Wow, thank you for that Japanese site. It really is amazing. They even have pictures of the balloons and streamers!

omg yes! I used to read that page for hours when I was bored

[truehappiness]

Yep, the owner is super dedicated. I hope they keep going for the Ayu fandom's sake cause not many others also document all the goods, TV performances, overall songs, and old setlists.

I just realized I should probably backup monochrome every few months just in case LOL

[Xianghua]

haha, you never know! Everyone here would probably love you for it.

It's pretty awesome that a Chinese fan already covered FLOWER, lol. Linked from the Ayu Bar @ Baidu. Very cute.

wow thats reallycool, curious how she make the instrumental...
i want it

[truehappiness]

I think they used the usual method of inverting the soundwave once or twice in Audacity to make a faux karaoke track. It works very well for most songs.

[Surreal17]

Catcher is the Light is so fantasy-like! So many things happen in this almost 3 min track. I really like the industrial sound mixed with the ethereal vibe.

[truehappiness]

Ayu's intros are world class IMO.

[Surreal17]

exactly. Catcher in the Light, Not Yet, Mirror and tasky are masterpieces.

[truehappiness]

Bridge to the sky is among my TOPS OF TOPS.

everlasting dream is also godly.

[Gustavopc]

^ everlasting dream is totally my favorite intro of hers E V E R

[DonkeyKongRemix]

I really really love Summer Love... it's like everything You & Me and Feel the Love wanted to be but new and improved by a lot.

Some said they were disappointed by the chorus but I find it to be tremendous fun.

[love in music]

Yay, glad to see other people appreciating Why feat JUNO.
I've always loved Catcher in the Light, it's an amazing intro. I'm not even sure which intro of hers is my favorite, there's so many good ones. tasky is definitely one of my top favorites now.. also still love Not Yet and Bridge to the sky.

What's your guys' favorite interlude that you wish were a full song?
I remember desperately wishing Disco-munication was a full song when NEXT LEVEL came out, and still would love to hear it as a full track.

[luna7996]

Her intros are always amazing but I have always been obsessed with Not Yet. I had it on replay the other day and I truly wish we had gotter a longer ver.

[DevilsClap]

^ I love Not Yet as well. I also wish it was longer tbh

[Corvina]

For me Not Yet as well and everlasting dream. Love those and I do like more of her intros, but those two have the quality for a full song.
