wow I'm really surprised at the title. Not too fond of the "circus" part cos it makes me think she's gonna don ugly costumes and act all stupid ala STEP you @ Future Classics.

BUT. The "Rock 'n' Roll"... omg <3 I hope she's going full-on rock with the new album; that'll be SO HOT.

How the hell does a pink maid-like costume from Alice in Wonderland make you think of a circus?

If anything, I'd be thinking more along the lines of alterna @ AT06.

I think she might actually do a centre stage for once?! No wonder the AT is so expensive.. Ayu mentions about the new stage as well. I think their smart at using the AT as a main promotion now instead of an album.

Regardless...I saw Rock'n'Roll at first..so I was like..hmm this is gonna be interesting..then I saw Circus and when u put those two words together, it's BOUnd to catch attention...Very neat Ayu!

circus... i think of clowns and i think of 1LOVE!

I cant wait for it~
Seems like the new album will be rockin'~

I somehow think that the Rock'n'Roll Circus is the tour title, and the album might just be named "Rock'n'Roll." It kind of works, I think.

hidekirby · #**106** 17th February 2010, 02:10 PM

Wow, new tour's title! Unexpected! Thanks.

Sure, the "circus" theme is 'in' since Britney's done it not so long ago... Then having a "circus" theme is not a clever idea right now...
Yet, as it's based on the Rolling Stones, it can be completely different, so why not.
As long as it's not a simple circus theme it'll be fine I guess.
I'm really looking forward to hearing the album now. Ayu's never done properly rock but maybe it will be the case this time? Even if it's rock-inspired as always I don't mind as long as it's a bit different.
The title in itself souns good. I like long titles, they seem less simple than just one word, and more interesting to me.

freedreamer · #**107** 17th February 2010, 02:20 PM

I wonder if her rock will even be appreciated by the japanese who arnt too fond of rock..but pop
i hope she sings rock renditions of her old songs...old non-rock songs

cos you can be rest assured that's what she's thinking by "circus" - being retarded.

Of course I'm hoping that's not the case, but... whatever "cutesy" section she's gonna have I hope she doesn't go ott with the circus theme.

and alterna wasn't circus to me... it was art.

teppei_chan92 · #**110** 17th February 2010, 02:24 PM

WHEN WE THINK ABOUT IT, 1 LOVE, Marionette, GAME, About You and alterna are suitable songs for circus themes.

freedreamer · #**111** 17th February 2010, 02:29 PM

^Lol true...About You...im not too sure though the PV had traces of some artistry circus stuff..GAME was because of her show girl costume (which i pray she does NOT reuse)..the rest, yea i gotta agree...and IT'LL BE AWESOME to see them again..though, i doubt she'll do 1 LOVE.

AngelSenshi · #**112** 17th February 2010, 02:37 PM

I think this is going to be incredible. I'm a rocker at heart, and Ayu really is the only 'jpop' artist I listen to, so I love her rock songs; I'm looking forward to this! Hopefully the new album and the tour really will have a cool rock feel to it; I'd really really look forward to it.

Now I really can't wait~! We need album news!

Bigtop · #**113** 17th February 2010, 02:39 PM

Well, unfortunately, I'm going to break the streak - I don't like the title very much, because it's quite weird, and the title seems to be out of my comfort zone as part of a newly different strategy in my Japanese pop music situation...

fanayutic · #**114** 17th February 2010, 02:40 PM

WOW! the title is <3
Judging by the title of this year's tour, i will be assuming that there will be huge stage props and big surprises!!
Looking forward to that! =DD

nemesisyume · #**115** 17th February 2010, 02:41 PM

omg the title is so original.

nanakopy87 · #**116** 17th February 2010, 02:45 PM

Oh, I wasn't referring to her xD It's because Koda Kumi and Mika Nakashima did something using this kind of theme, and I'd like something new. That's all

prussian blue · #**118** 17th February 2010, 02:47 PM

omg *speechless*

i hope it will be good and no more recycling stuff
