BLUE BIRD is still a maxi single though...

It was either saved for another single or dropped altogether (same thing happened with Namie Amuro's single. She was supposed to release a third song titled "Nobody."). It sucks though. If Ladies Night ~another night mix~ is on the single. Then we can kiss thoughts of a remix album goodbye.

[truehappiness]

Well, we don't HAVE to~ :p

With avex you never know. x.x The release of B&D caught a lot of people by surprise last year.. maybe we'll get another surprise this year!

Oh no I know that xD

I just mean for all those who don't know, you know? XD

Maxi single is a big thing people might not know either~

[Hazuki]

I wonder how the remix of Blue Bird will be.. The original one from the CM dosen't really catch me D:

[truehappiness]

Well, it's going to be a trance remix it seems.. so..

it's anybody's guess. :p

...

hm... Anyone think we might get AT2006 footage on the DVD? :/

i swear you post about 300 times on each page lol





Am I the only one who doesn't care about any other song on this single aside from the Ladies Night Remix? I hope they put it on the new album, or else it'll be a new b-side

Wow, what an idiotic move. She's completely vulnerable to break her #1 streak now (to TOKIO, sadly), and I hope she does. You don't promote as a 'special' single, and then at the last minute demote it to a usual single. I would have for sure cancelled my preorder. I don't know, I think Avex owes an apology. This is beyond disappointing since BLUE BIRD and Beautiful Fighters sound like two cutesy similar-sounding songs to me. Is she not getting it through her head that she's 27 years old? I'd rather have more songs like Bold & Delicious honestly, even if it turns out successful or not, at least she's making an effort to take musical risks. Really, give us something we haven't heard.

o_o ouch..

[Coelacanth]

she got served. =D

[micster]

Meow.

Im sure we all know as she keeps churning people will keep buying.

Im sure she will get a #1 with the single cos .. well its ayu.

Its too obvious

[Ryoko]

Still, I wonder if avex just posted the supposed tracklisting and title to satisfy public demand. I'm really hoping it'll be changed so that there's a third NEW song on the single. And like some other people said, judging from the previews, the single really does need a third a-side - which should be a ballad since one is upbeat and the other one is slightly slower.

[elepop]

I'd rather have songs like "Heartplace" or "I am...". I agree the cutesy pop songs are getting boring. Plus, they all sound so alike.

True. It's unfair how they said it was a "special" single. It sounds just like the other singles too me. Two a-sides, two PVs, a few remixes, two covers, same price... Now, it's just really dissapointing. All I care about now is that the songs are good. I wanted a rock song though...

Maybe they'll add another song later on? Remember when "Startin'/Born to be..." tracklist was out? There was no instrumentals, but they updated that a few weeks later.

[truehappiness]

Well, I don't get why people don't think she'll get #1~

Tokio doesn't sell all that much compared to many of the other Johnny's groups. Sadly, they rarely ever break 200k. :/ Last single they had which was in Feb sold a total of 143k :/

And they got number one probably due to a lack of any competition whatsoever.

And about hearing the same thing over and over... I think she does know that she's 27, but it's a summer song and what do you think of when you think of summer? Happy super upbeat songs. She's had one every year for quite a while.. July 1st, Greatful Days, fairyland.. I don't see why she should stop now. A lot of her 'musically risky!' songs are in the album anyway. Singles that sell well tend to be what people have been used to and etc. B&D shouldn't have been released, but whatever. Just look at HEAVEN. That was one of those classic-y Ayu ballads and it sold 320k++.

Yeah.. alterna was one of those 'mmm' summer songs, but I think Beautiful Fighters might be compared to alterna.. after all all we heard was 'We are beautiful fighters.. l;alalalalala.... ee yoooo .... lalalalala.. end. xD' ....Hm... I wonder if they'll make it so that Ladies Night~another night~ gets a PV O_O

[elepop]

I think Ayu will be #1. As previously said, it's too obvious. She always does.

And yes, I do post a thousand times. xD Whee~

I feel the same way. I'm not saying she will get the #1 position but most odds she will and personally I don't see her #1's streak ending anytime soon... I'm also not that worried about the single only because I loved the preview for BLUE BIRD and Beautiful Fighters sounds like its going to be a great song. Ladies Night is my favourite song off (miss) understood so its great that theres a remix (although I don't hear the difference from what I've heard) and trance remix of BLUE BIRD will be interesting to hear. I have always loved her PV's (even Endless sorrow and she wasn't in it until near the very end). The covers will most likely (not saying it will) because it is a summer a single. & had a nice cover H had a nice cover. fairyland had a nice cover. BLUE BIRD might (most likely) have a nice cover as well.
