it's just "A song for," according to the CMs that came with the LOVEappears Bonus CD.

Ever since, it has spawned numerous jokes from me, such as "A Sniper For XX"(in reference to a Nagase thread)

I also think it's really "A song for "???"" The XX aren't pronounced...they are there just to say the song is for someone (or something) but it doesn't mention who or what it is. The CMS alsoi don't pronounce the XX like Grass Monkey mentioned. I like to spell the "XX" though lol

It is pronounced "A Song for". Ayu wrote it for her mother, but she put in the XX so that it could really be a song for anyone.

Mimika, do you have the Loveppears cd? There are a couple of "A Song for XX" cms on the second disk.

I'm pretty sure it was written for her mother. The info where I read that may have been incorrect, though.

It was most likely written for her mother 'cause her father abandoned them. So I would guess that it was written for her mom.

I'd like to add that "A" is pronounced as "ei". The album title is written in Katakana as "ei" in original Japanese version. And I suppose she did so because she liked to suggest that "A" was Ayumi herself. So the hidden meaning would be "Ayumi's song for Mother".

A Song For is how its pronounced. And Im guessing the XX is a variable...

my teacher's right! everything does relate back to math!
