Well they're really not...unless you're in Japan...and I agree...it's such a shame. Too bad they're avoiding 'Overseas' versions of her BDs.

please tell me they're releasing studio versions of all those covers on an album :O I want to hear them so badly.

What about those who don't like live DVDs?
It's like being forcefed broccoli.
It's supposed to be a gift to her fans right?
I know we have to PAY for it... But... This could be any other release. She was gonna release this DVD anyway, I think. Or maybe Slavex thought it would BOMB of it wasnt part of the 5 month release hype train (that has already derailed for the most part)

They release studio versions but only aired on the radio. But I think they'll release an album with all the covers. They MUST do it xD You can hear them here: http://www.youtube.com/user/WTlover9...ow=grid&view=0 and this one that I don't know why it isn't in the other channel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gnx-Vx3F_Y8 They are in the best quality I found. Enjoy them ^^

Sorry for the off-topic :p

I think the dvd would have been better received had it not been chosen as the fifth release....Like, I actually think that if they had wanted to make the five-release-extravaganza more exciting, they should have switched the dates for A Classical and the concert dvd. Not like it really matters though, since they would have both come out at some point in time. Whatevs.

Since I was expecting this, I guess I'm not too disappointed or anything.

Try to be positive
what if the 5 consecutive items could have been 5 singles, but something like this :

single 1) a song 4 U / melody (+2 PV)

single 2) wake me up / (remixes) (+1 PV)

single 3) missing / Sweet scar (+2 PV)

single 4) snowy kiss / (remixes) (+1 PV)

single 5) Ivy / Bye-bye darling (+1 PV)

Instead of that now we have a nice "classical album" and "dvd/blu-ray" and a new album with new songs

I'd much rather get a dvd than a best album right about now haha.
is difficult try find words of comfort when some fans are dying for having an A BEST 3, other praying for not yet, others want an ayumix collection, others don't like remixes, other want only singles other new album, other ballads, others rock, other techno...

If she is going to try pleasing every ****ing one from her overly spoiled fanbase everytime she releases something, it's better for her to retire at once.

And I didn't know people hate live DVDs so much, I always though her fanbase liked to see her performing.

Edit: Can't wait for the meltdowns once people discover the special gift for those who bought everything isn't a HD expensive TV, a private jet or 5 drops of Ayu's blood on a glass.

I would like the special gift to be related to some unreleased music. However I think I'll be ok if it isn't as I don't plan on getting the 5th release.

I agree with you. No matter what she does, there's always going to be fans who aren't pleased about it so to try to give every fan exactly what they want is unrealistic. I don't buy her singles, remix albums, and I don't really care for best albums as I have no interest in rebuying the same songs I already purchased from her studio or mini albums, but I don't complain about them constantly every time they're released. At the end of the day, it's up to each individual to decide if they want to buy something or not, but I really don't see the point in complaining about the same thing over and over. I mean, I can understand expressing your displeasure a few times but to constantly complain about the same thing over and over when you know that nothing is going to change comes across as pathetic, especially when someone is whining about it for a span of several pages. People should focus their time and energy on things that they're happy about instead of nagging about something that they don't have to spend their time reading about or buying if they're not interested in it. I'll never understand why people invest so much time and energy into things they don't like and willingly wallow in their misery for so long when they have a choice to not deal with it at all if they don't want to.

^ Agreed, completely.

It's one thing to generate a discussion using different opinions. It's another to just whine. But idk I like the fact that people can come together and share their thoughts no matter what, it's just frustrating when people seem to take a loooot of stuff for granted and realize that Ayu could have totally gone some half-arsed Kpop route with her career by now. At least she didn't "re-package" Party Queen with just one new song and consider two months of silence grounds for a "comeback" lol. Sure, the mini albums going on another album is a bit of a surprise and you can dislike it, but guess what? They're going on there and that's that. Just because you have to clear off some hard drive space for her new live DVD doesn't mean it's a joke or a crappy fifth release.

I think commenting on the marketing nonsense that is avex is totally valid as far as complaints and discussions go, but that's something separate from Ayu herself. I don't think she really gets to have much of a say in how they try to sell her stuff anymore. In fact, I think she kind of ignored that whole aspect of her career since I would hazard probably around L's release. Now that she isn't releasing physical copies of singles anymore, they're scrambling. Is it really that difficult, I wonder? Marketing people aren't always the most resourceful when it comes to change.

Theories are floating around that it will be the 2013 calendar, haha. However, that would mean overseas fans are screwed if that is the case.

So why do people complain about the people complaining, if we already know they'll complain anyway?
