What Now?

[AyumiAi]

I've been with AHS since may, and since then she has always been releasing something, or doing some concert, but now since the end of the 7 day tour, there seems to be a calm after the hectic schedual ayu has had, what is the next step, what will we keep on talking about, we have nearly no information on a new album, do we just simply stare at her singles on the oricon charts, its sales and speculate? (at least we have an annoucement for AyuTrance 4!)

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

All AHS does is speculate. It can get annoying. Sometimes there are "calms" or periods where she doesn't announce anything...but they don't usually last long.

I'd like an upbeat positive winter single. And ayu trance 4.

[primavera♥]

Omg I know what u mean, ayumiai....u see I've only been here since january though and so there's been non-stop stuff from rnrc to this 50th single project
So although there were calm times. Not very long ones

That's why I would say that with all this news, I would be on ayu-withdrawal.

But were expecting a new studio album soon so I don't think it will be too long ^__~

[emi♡]

lol sometimes you have to get used to down periods....but TRUST ME, there is ALWAYS something to talk about


Well, the least we can wait for is Kouhaku and CDL in december lol

but we'll more than likely get more news about stuff between now and then.

[gallowsCalibrator]

I can't really remember when the longest down time was since I joined... None of them last very long

[Ranma Matsuri]

Kinda glad for the down period, like Strawbari, I've only been here a little while so with the album, tour and singles project it's been non-stop stuff! But with confirmation of a new album, CDL, and now a remix album the calm definitely won't last long.

[GRACE]

she's working on the next album, right? I swear I remember hearing about her talking about it

[Picaflor 7/4]

this site is 25% official announcements; 75% speculations/claims/rumors/4000 posts of "omg i can't wait", "this wait is killing me", and "it's already been 2 hours since she announced she's releasing a new single! release it already!!"

[emi♡]

I think it's harder for fans now. Her release pattern is sparse now.

When I was new, she had just released fairyland, then heaven like a month later, then CDL and kouhaku, then bold and delicious...then the album lol

I cant even imagine how news must have been in her peak years lol

[Jennie Mae]

Now, we wait. Lol.
Next up is either a winter single or an album announcement. Wouldn't it be nice to have a late December/January 1 album release again?

don't worry we still get trolls trying to troll us some times... it's pretty entertaining

Yes you did. She talked about it on twitter.

I love you for saying that. It made my day.

[Kanzaki]

The calm won't last long, believe me. And I'm still all giddy after knowing that there will be an Ayu Trance 4, and to me that's just as good as new songs.

[love in music]

I don't think it'll last long. I'm waiting for the album announcement. I think it should be announced sometime this month (thinking/hoping for a December release). even if there isn't one though, I'm still pretty good with all these new singles for the next few months, then I'll be craving some new stuff again lol

[ohsixthirty]

The down time is always really short.

And there are always her TA writings and her twitter. There is always SOMETHING. And if there isn't, trust me, AHS members will find something to talk about.

[JackieRos]

She works too fast and I want her to rest.
If she slows down maybe her albums wont disappoint some people
because she would have time to think
"It's this good enough? will fans like this? what can I change?"

I'm happy what she's releasing but avex needs to slow down a little, ayu is human not a machine.

It has been a great ayu year, its normal to feel like empty now xD

[CHE.R.RY]

I'm really hoping for something new and fresh this winter. Maybe an upbeat song...I'm tired of the winter ballads as they're kind of becoming a habit now (even though I did really enjoy You were.../BALLAD last year). I'm guessing we'll get another album due spring or maybe even summer of next year who knows? Or next year might be like 2007 in which we never 'officially' got an album release. All I know is, I'm eager to see what Ayu has in store for us, and I'm ecstatic for Ayu Trance 4 !

But I know what you mean, the future does seem a little uncertain...I kind of feel that 'what now' thing too. But I guess I always kind of feel that way after a release, whether it be Ayu or someone else.

[ストロボ・EdGE]

She just released a ****ton of stuff for us, I hope no one is complaining about any "silence."

[jbrat2219]

^ Would you really be surprised?

I assume an album and CDL are next, not necessarily in that order (but hopefully in that order...)
