One of the songs on the single is the theme to the TBS drama "—ö‚·‚éƒnƒjƒJƒ~." This source also mentions something about 7 versions based on 4 songs.

HMV.co.jp is also saying November 6th.


So we have multiple sources giving the same info about the single, but no official confirmation from Avex yet.

[Ayutada]

AWESOME! Thanks for the info dude!

[jerms]

um..well if it has a catolog number..isnt it basically true? =D..and ya know..how its on cdjapan..

7 versions based on 4 songs.

i'm confused. so therse going to be more then 4 tracks..including 4 songs on the single???..lost

[Grantith]

I have no idea. I don't understand what CDJapan means by that. It's the only English news I've seen about the track listing, and it's unclear.

When I read that, I was thinking remixes, but I could be wrong.

So I'm not sure. We just have to wait for more info to come out about it.

It sounds like the descritpion for & when it was first listed.
7 tracks. 4 new tracks with vocals, 3 instrumentals.

I think means that there are four songs with 7 remixes of them (not 7 versions for one song each) but it's kinda confusing....well i can't wait to buy it!! (or download it .....)

hah i hope not. all we need now is another &..that REALLY wont sell well..because if people get both & and &2, it'll be 8 tracks..thats more then half the cd! (probably)..stupid avex.. =P


it could mean 7 different versions of the same single..and the single has 4 tracks..but then i dont think they'd waste that much money on a single..or..7 tracks between 4 songs..i guess thats the most reasonable..although i'm still baffled... =\ tiem will tell i geus..eh?

[Piccolo]

Thanks for the info Grant. Looks like we are going to have to wait for a confirmed tracklist.

[Ryoko]

Thx for the info.. must add another item to Christmas list...

[ayubra]

awww... I was hoping that Ayu was going to release her 6th album ... but now I think she wont release it this year.... :

[ayumi_pukka89]

kakkoi!! I can't wait to hear all the songs ^^ tanx for the info

Another maxi-single?

That ruins the excitement of buying the album itself. We already have one maxi-single for this album.

[jerms]

samaraiDRIVE---> haha..she's released WAY more maxi's for an album before.. =]


---> wow. a third site that says so. can we all practically confirm it now? i mean..avex is always a little slow at things.. =]


and btw, the price is 1200 yen..thats more then all her 4track singles(1000 yen) recently..same prices as H, &, and all her 10+ track singles..lets just hope for the best


..and no word at tsutaya yet..

Maybe she'll release some B-sides... The only B-sides she has ever released are "everfree", "two of us", and "LOVE~since 1999~" Though, I suppose "LOVE~Destiny~" was never released on an orignal album. It was released on A BEST, but we didn't see it on an original.

Wouldn't it be weird to see B-sides from ayu, an artist who, as a rule, hasn't released them?

[jerms]

hanabiwings--- "theme of a-nation '03" is probably one too..

[CREA]

Actually she hasn't released much more singles before an album than this. Here's the list:

A Song for XX -
poker face (FRIEND was included on the album)
YOU
Trust
For My Dear...
Depend on you
= 6 songs

LOVEppears -
WHATEVER
LOVE~Destiny~ (which wasn't included)
Boys & Girls
A (which included Trauma, End roll, too late, and monochrome, all which were on the album)
= 6

Duty -
vogue
Far away
SEASONS
= only 3, because SURREAL was released the day Duty was

I am...
M
evolution
NEVER EVER
Endless sorrow
UNITE!
Dearest
= 6

RAINBOW -
H (independent, July 1st, HANABI)
Voyage
= 4

And now with the upcoming album -
& (ourselves, Greatful days, HANABI ~episode II~)
forgiveness
upcoming single (No way to say, ANGEL'S SONG, and two others, most likely one being a b-side like 'theme of a-nation')
= 7

So this will be the most songs from singles she'll have on an album. Hopefully its tracklist will not have as many instrumentals as RAINBOW and be about the same length of LOVEppears/I am...

And I find it extremely strange that the new single is going to be called "No way to say" She's never done this with any other multi-track single. But I don't think it's possible for her to use anymore symbols.. lol. I was actually very surprised to see her coming out with <i>another</i> single. And I have a feeling it's not going to sell very well either.. similar to &. Might even sell less. They should have just released a new album..

[Linzy]

You forgot Free & Easy from RAINBOW. And also from I am..., she released a song is born (even though it's not quite the same version).

[julie_so_smoothie]

well i think he got "free/easy" and "voyage" confused. free and easy came out first..anyways..i thgouht samarai was talking about maxi's not songs, so jerms was right i think..and & didnt sell too bad..it was forgiveness that was horrible..

[Whit3FoX]

Hm...anyway i'll wait for it to realease

[jkm444]

this seems like an interesting tracklist for the next single. I think that i will get since it contains 7 versions based on 4 songs. thanks for the info.
