TA Blog: 春よ、来い。| Haru yo koi
EDIT: The translation has been replaced with a full one by remove-mom at the AHS Discord. Full credit goes to her and her efforts!
I feel this is one of the most important blogs we have had from her in a long time, so I hope everyone can read it. Previous post: Spoiler:

thank you so much for translating, koumori!
I feel like this would be an interesting thing as some kind of making-of documentary interview in the DVD. I always love her talking about the creative process behind her musical decisions. |

Thank you! I had a feeling this entry would be important. It’s interesting how she takes responsibility for not living “ayumi hamasaki” to its full extent in recent years. Curious to see if there will be a shift from here on out, as she seems to be promising.

sounds like she lost herself in the past few years and she's realized that now. This album is a wake-up call for her to bring "ayumi hamasaki" back to us.

Thank you so much for posting this translation of Ayu's message!
I'm very excited about this. Ayu is always at her best when she's fully devoted in heart, mind and soul to a project, and it seems like the weight of covering such an important song in Japanese culture made her feel committed to the highest creative standard. I found the original song (or a version of it) on Youtube and the lyrics translation and I really love the vibe of the song. I just watched the preview of Ayu's cover at the end of the A BALLADS 2 promo and the arrangement sounds downright royal, fit for a queen taking on a traditional song. And she looks spectacular in the video. I can't wait for the final version to come out!! |

Wow! First, thank you for the translation!
This was deep. Ayu is inspired after all these "lost" years. I think we are about to witness a new Ayu. So exciting! |

Of course, although I would encourage you to be ready to re-translate parts as soon as we get a better translation (I'm assuming someone else will jump in with more nuanced corrections by tomorrow). There's no need for the spanish ayu fan community to wait for the main message of this though imo

Some of us are always attacked when we dare to criticise that 浜崎あゆみ is somehow gone and that her spirit is missing. People get crazy over stating this, because they say she would put her all into it. But I can't say I feel she put her everything into much the last few years. Now she acknowledged that she didn't, but that she wants to go back to that 浜崎あゆみ and I really really hope she comes back. |

^Im on the same boat as you both. I’m glad she acknowledged it, and that she feels like returning the lost essence to Hamasaki Ayumi. Really hoping it is true and not another reason to hype us for this release tho. But knowing pray for you is done and not included on AB2, something seems to be on the works for sure. And if damn pandemics come to an end somewhere in the next months (year (?)) hope she can fulfill her desires performing wise, which she loves the most. Her 25th it’s not so far...hopefully the Hamasaki Ayumi we all want will be back to properly celebrate. Or maybe we’re reading too much into it and she’s referring to coming back to performing as she has always done until it became impossible lol

Thanks for translating this!
I'm thrilled to see Ayu so happy to be working on something. I've only recently discovered Yumi Matsutoya, and she seems very cool--very creative and interesting, much like Ayu herself. I'm not at all surprised that Ayu found inspiration in her. Recently albums are making much less money than singles in the music business. A single is released with lots of pomp, tied into products and video and whatever, and serves as a project in itself. I think that style suits Ayu very well. She can put so much into crafting each song/lyrics/video/product she works on without filler. My hope is that she'll start doing interesting projects with each single. Her albums don't sell as well anymore, but each digital single can become a small piece of art on its own and give her the time and space to maybe start writing her own music again, even! |
