The close-up pic has grown on me so much <3 She looks so cute, and the "fish lips" aren't overdone at all <3 They're perfect! I love her hair, the bow, the glasses...omg

Not to you specifically Jackie, but I don't really get the whole complaining about her being "over Photoshopped" all the time. As if fairyland and My Story didn't have a lot of work on it lol.... Sometimes, yeah, they do take it too far in some magazine shoots (and random magazine scans from people aren't necessarily exactly what it looks like on paper too in any case...) and stuff but it's not like these or any of her other covers look like, say, BEST FICTION. No hate on Namie btw.

My first thought on the covers was that I liked them and then I realized it did sort of look like a blah magazine spread by Kazu-rin. Idk.

I'm a bit impartial to the covers. My first thought was that I liked them and then I realized it did sort of look like a blah magazine spread by Kazu-rin. Idk.
I think the usage of the term "too photoshopped" should be banned. It's like saying "Ayu is a female."

Of course photoshop is going to be involved. Everything she does is "too photoshopped," even the photos you LIKE!

^LOl.
These photos don't even look that photoshopped, only to the extent that everything is nowadays. Even commercial and things are photoshopped (or whatever that's called).

I thought that MOON / blossom covers were bad but these are worse!

D:

What's going on...

I didn't even liked the songs on MOON / blossom............

And these are supposed to be like better singles than usual

I feel so dissapointed and I hate the photographer / stylist so much

Nothing good is coming from this!

It's the Ayu-apocalypse >.<

Wow, at first I was like "those are the covers?"--but actually, I really like them.

They're completely different than anything she's done before.
I like how she looks, I like the colors, and I like the font.

And also, OMFG SEVEN DAYS WAR. I love that song so much. I can't believe she's covering it xD

^Thinking about... all the pieces have fallen together.... TK composing the single, the cover of SDW (which I assume is a popular song, right?), blossom being left off of M/b and all the hype from that Jae guy being in the PV that will carry on to the 50th when it's released JUST the week after... it all makes sense now. Any doubt I've had before about this release has been completely stamped out, that #1 is as good as hers.

I actually don't mind all of it.. I do agree the idea to have Jaejoong star in the PV will definitely rake in the money, and helluva lot of curiosity!!

Yeah, something that says that SEVEN DAYS WAR is not an original track and is a cover from TM NETWORK, because you -know- people are going to wonder if it's a new Ayu song.

I don't know if I could ever imagine Ayu writing a song called SEVEN DAYS WAR, haha.

Someone needs to simmer down a bit... rather than the Ayu-pocalypse, it sounds more like the visionfactory-apocalypse, sorry to say.

^isdgi XD Sorry, I'm a little slow tonight so I'm going to flat out ask are you referring to the 1st post because I did mention it was a cover there or are you talking about something else? (again, forgive my slowness XD)

I feel partways towards the cover, on one hand, she looks pretty and sweet, on the other, i think she looks like she made another VIVI shoot for the singles. -__-U nothing outstanding or too special.

Anyway, thanks true happiness for the seven days war lyrics, I LOVE THEM. They're gorgeous and i can't wait too hear the song. This looks now very promising indeed...now i hope Crossroad is gonna be cool also
