Could this FB profile be the real FB profile of Ayu ?
It has plenty of friends who are part of her staff ...

I'm late to the ABL live CD talk, but I was listening to Memorial Address and I was all, this is great... Until she turned into her dark monster voice. It doesn't fit when she goes that deep.

Since Summer is over, of course I'm already thinking about the winter playlists, lol... and I was checking Ayu's winter singles, and I couldn't believe how better You Were Music Box version is compared to the normal one! Like, You Were... is really nice and all, but that Music Box Mix is just magical!! (Already can't wait for Xmas, lol)

I almost couldn't recognize you Zeke, i was so used to your past set haha
Personally i feel that Together When is on a whole 'nother level emotionally, it always brings me to tears and the arrangement is so beautiful. The whole Guilty album was flawless in general, sadly it's really underrated and overlooked by fans. I agree with You Were, it's far from her most memorable winter ballad, it's very "by the book" but it's still great. I only mentioned BALLAD though cause it's one of my favorites by her.

I just realized how all the singles i mentioned are winter ballads, lmfao i guess i'm a sucker for them.

I'm not here for your comment as GREEN is my favorite song by her, and one of my favorite songs in the whole world.

The Panasonic CM mix of GREEN was fantastic. I was a little disappointed in the single cut. Anyways, GREEN is still one of her best songs and second best on NEXT LEVEL.

That GIF on the first page is the highlight of this thread. Did she really throw a table and then catch a flying chair with one hand?

I'm sorry you have such bad tastes in ayumi songs. lol. :p Green has got to be one of the... um... just down right unwanted songs, lol.. and the PV itself doesn't help it. Boring, drag, and insufferable comes to mind. And I think I'm being kind. LOL

seriously though, it was Green that made me lose faith in the girl to begin with... It was one disaster after another and Green was just the last straw in the bunch... which is a shame... its such a great color... LOL

I thought GREEN was crap, but one of her performances of it made me like it more, because it was one of the few performances where it was just her on stage, singing a song, and just everything actually being pretty.

That hardly ever happens.


People do have some weird ass taste though. But then, I was never one for her ballads. They're pretty, but I don't care for her mix of generic ballad with...ayu-strange-melodies.

If I want a generic ballad, I want the catchy, pretty melody that other people do better.

Well I always felt You were... was just so "FORCED". I felt the chorus was just a lot of shouting, like she was trying to get across a strong emotion, but the melody was just too bland. I love the kimi ga i... etc melody part though. The verses are nice but the chorus sounds as if it thinks it's better than it really is.

I also agree about GUILTY being a great album. It really evokes a certain emotion and I love that about it. The entire image of the album GUILTY exudes exactly what the album consists of I believe.

And yes, I have been working out religiously now for the past 2 1/2 years. Lol.

I place You were... near the top in my list of favorite ballads. My first impression of it was that it was generic and bland. After getting over my obsession with its A-side sister BALLAD, it grew on me very quickly. I think the melody is gorgeous from start to finish and Ayu does what she can with her smaller voice. I have no complaints (anymore).

I know AHS rules have become more lax lately, but unfortunately those photos are still prohibited.

MY STORY gets so much crap here but it is my favorite album. I had been listening to it a lot again recently and I thought the same thing. Her voice was very smooth and warm sounding.
