I agree. Duty and I Am were phenomenal albums. I especially love I Am because she composed most of the songs and thus it feels more personal and meaningful to the album's theme. Her subsequent albums were also great, but there was an apparent decrease in quality. Basically, all her songs after Guilty were lacking for me. Next Level was okay and fun, but not memorable and RNRC, although pretty nice, was also forgettable in terms of its songs.I just don't feel energy and emotion from her songs anymore. They all sound the same. She needs to compose again.

I like Virgin Road and Last Angel quite a bit though so I'll check out the album. But I won't buy it unless it's really consistent, creative, or different. I really doubt at this point, however.


I'm pretty on the fence on this one, don't see myself buying it. Her and Koda need a break bad. badbadbadbadbabdbad.


Yeah I get what you mean. I bought both Next Level and RnRC and basically, they were both really not worth the money. I most likely won't be buying Love Songs considering the music she has been releasing lately. And I totally agree with Ayumi and Koda needing to take breaks. Seriously, are they burned out at all? They really need a break to freshen themselves and their music.

I know Ayumi can release wonderful music, but I feel like she's all out of ideas and inspiration. That break would help.

Ok, so the album came out today.
And I know alot of people are on the fence about it, but in all honesty. I kinda like it. Especially the new songs.

It seems like Ayu is now married to Mannie (the guy from "Virgin Road" MV) according to this:
http://www.sponichi.co.jp/entertainm.../01/01/01.html


-Avex says Ayu and Mannie met last August during the "Virgin Road" PV shoot
- Ayu and Mannie used their free time at night to deepen their relationship while in Los Angeles
- Mannie auditioned for Ayu's PVs in a video featuring local LA actors
- Ayu consulted Avex in early December about her intentions to marry Mannie
- Mannie is described as looking like a bearded Keanu Reeves (lol)
- Ayu and Mannie always had conversations in English
- Ayu is NOT pregnant and will continue her career
- No ceremony date has been set as of 1/1/2011
- Ayu will be traveling back and forth between the United States and Japan to live

Yeah, she retweeted one of his tweets, about marrying someone in the new year. I wondered why would she retweet that. And now it makes sense XD

The album is presented by the title of the song, love song, which begins with a light piano scale, then passes through a rock's early influences in his devotion and dedication to music. Ayu's voice is strong, raw, and you can really tell that she was taking care of herself. His voice does not sound painful when the strong momentum of the song.
