So a new Chinese single is in order? I'll listen to it when it leaks but I prefer her Japanese works better

&OMG that new song for RED CLIFF 2 is soooo pretty! Thanks for ripping it for us Karen!

[Yum!Fruit_Salad!]

Can't wait to hear the acoustic version of Gunjou no Tani!

[GRACE]

^Most likely~

So, the way this falls out is, over the next three months, we'll have four singles. Three Japanese, one Chinese, and then the album in March.

...Hopefully.

She's just like...laying them all down It's crazy

that will be cool

I know

[GRACE]

Apparently, maybe that's why Gunjou was postponed to February 4th to begin with. Liberty, according to wiki, is the drama tie-in, and Kyuuen no Kawa is to be the RED CLIFF part 2 theme

I see

but I find it strange that CDJapan already sent me the preorder links for Gunjou no Tani & that they haven't done so for Liberty (assuminging that will be the single to be released before Gunjou)

oh well I guess I have to wait for more official news on this matter

[GRACE]

Liberty just appeared today in the grand scheme of things. I also find it odd that her official site announced Gunjou before Liberty if it's coming first as well.

imo, Gunjou is probably going to be the 8th single. I just have a gut feeling.

Found this on Fuji TV's site:

■主題歌
　alan「Liberty」（avex trax）

ah ok & yes I find it odd as well

if it's so that Liberty will be her 8th single , then preorder links should have been sent a long time ago & not for Gunjou 1st

& oh for once there wouldn't be a B-side in Gunjou hmm

[GRACE]

Well, at least now I know the song Liberty exists for certain, I just don't know what it is yet. I'm calling it the 8th single for now because, since it's real, and the Drama airs in January, that's likely where it will fall, but it seems odd and rushed.

thanks for that & yes it does sound odd & rushed

it's like being sandwiched in between her other releases too

please don't tell me she's doing the whole 1 single single per month thing again

[Mirai Noah]

alan, you are confusing me with all your releases. Album now, please.

[mcken200]

omg ive been away for too long !! liberty ? Chi Bi , new releases already !?!

but omg Chi Bi as Red cliff song will be amazing, just wondering if its better than last one.

But it doesnt sound like alan cause she sounds like an opera singer ! but i love the song !
dammit alan ! u rule !

[GRACE]

Alright, so Kyuuen was confirmed as the RED CLIFF part 2 theme.

So, what we know now is:

8th Single: Liberty
9th Single: Gunjou no Tani
10th Single: Kyuuen no Kawa

2nd Chinese EP: CHI BI~Da Jiang Dong Qu~

1st Japanese Album: Untitled and scheduled for March.

did I miss anything?

[mcken200]

kyuuen is japanese version of Chi Bi right ? i cant wait for japanese version of Chi Bi

[GRACE]

^Yep! And Liberty is the drama tie-in. Gunjou's just... gunjou. It doesn't have anything special other than sounding pop-rocky

[mcken200]

^ oh excellent thats great to hear ! i cant stop listening to Chi Bi now, i just had no idea alan was capable of this singing style ! its so great i feel like crying lol

[Ayu_desu]

yeah, I'm surprised that she has an opera voice. Although she does not have the complete power of an opera singer, she's close!

her held notes are love.

[mcken200]

even though its not a proper oprea voice which i am glad, because her voice is just sheer elegance, and yes her held notes are love !

[GRACE]

Liberty has apparently been removed from her Japanese wiki.
