Noo that's popcorn!
But she did use them in WHATEVER in 1999. On a side note, these single covers are beautiful! Welcome back. Edit: seems Deli beat me to it since I was searching for the pic too!! Edit 2: I was ready to bring out the nukes for this release date!! Time to scale back... Last edited by JinHamasaki; 19th November 2009 at 06:08 AM. Reason: people beat me |

it will be funny if Kanjani∞ got their revenge against her with their 3 GIFT single releases from 23rd - Christmas Day
after all HEAVEN did put a stop to them getting #1 with regards to Kanfuu Fighting but somehow I doubt it because all the 3 GIFT singles are limited releases so that could be a good or bad thing

Yea because Namie is the only one allowed to use feathers in a picture...
And to the point I was making... They moved the release date so they would be closer to the time of the tie-in's release dates. So I guess if she gets #1 again it's being handed to her, and Ayu doesn't deserve it? Like she doesn't work her butt off to make music and keep people happy? Seriously.

just because the promo pic is similar to one of Namie's covers doesn't mean it isn't gorgeous. i like both of theirs, and i think without the floating feathers the pictures would be kind of boring. i also think that the promo pic will be one of the changeable jacket covers and we'll get 2 more versions of it! and i would love if that was the poster..but i hope there will be different versions of the poster and not just 1. but whatever, we're already VERY spoiled with this single so it doesn't matter.

I go away for a couple of hours and came back to find the covers after obsessively refreshing this page for the past week! But I'm so happy the covers are finally out and they are BEAUTIFUL!!! I can't wait to hear these songs! I'm kind of loving the ashy dark brown hair. : )

Tinkerbell? Aren't Ayu's lyrics a bit heavy (interpret as you see fit) for Disney?

I think Disney chose Ayu for her -image- as a talent/singer rather than the song, which is probably why the song is very loosely associated with the movie, haha. That's what I got from their reasoning anyway...
On a random note, how interesting that those two songs' teams for Curtain call and NEXT LEVEL just flip-flopped arrangers. NEXT LEVEL - DAI composed and HAL arranged BALLAD - DAI composed and Yuta Nakano arranged Curtain call - Kazuhiro Hara composed and Yuta Nakano arranged You were... - Kazuhiro Hara composed and HAL arranged Maybe these combinations will work out better.

^ I didn't even think about Namie's picture until someone posted it. They do indeed look similar, but feathers is a very common theme.

I'm so sure that B'z will maintain most no. 1 (collectively and consecutively) until someday an unknown artist beats them up. This fate will be applying to ayu, Mr. Children, KinKi Kids, and NewS as well.

^ I believe I already answered those points in the last thread about this about why I believe some (if not all) of those artists streaks to have more validity to them. But yeah, you are right that Fukuyama got scared of Kanjani8 as well and changed his release. (which I also wish he hadn't done) Basically, I just want this whole system to change, lol.
So, if she were avoiding say, an Utada release date you'd be against the release date change then? As for the cheating of numbers, there are actually several people that think that has already happened last year. Ayu will have the two CDLs to boost sales now. But now though it seems that Oricon will not count concert sales because the propensity of record companies to cheat is too large. Or is it just sales from handshake events and the like that have been banned? I'm not clear on that. Last edited by SunshineSlayer; 19th November 2009 at 06:54 AM. |

Honestly, avoiding other competition is a cop-out imo.
It would be great if there was more variety in who gets number one. The position now, to me anyway, is kind of a joke, based mostly on promotion and obvious strategy from the labels. But whatever. Honestly lol Ayu could hold the record now, and it really wouldn't change anything at all with her status or her popularity.
