I finally listening to the introduction and chorus of the song talkin' 2 myself. I like the song! Not disappointing at all. Though the introduction kind of has a 1LOVE vibe from the instruments, it's gonna be a great single. I think I'm going to purchase it.

It's out on Boajjang. talkin' 2 myself finally leaked. It is a refreshing song kind of. Revived my love for Ayumi

Though whenever I listen I get reminded of Because of You kind of it's still a good song.
I think I'm going to buy this single. I think I'm finally getting used to her deep voice.

Even though she released few rock songs before but this is different than them 
When I first heard the preview I loved it, I just knew that this song is going to be amazing ^^ And it turned out to be more than amazing when I heard the full version

I hope that this single will sell better than glitter/fated .. I really recommend everyone to hear this song and give it a shot ..

^ Hehe, Ayu looks really cute there! Reminds me of her My Story hair a bit, but it's more edgy.
The color scheme is good, too. It's a pretty strong single, it really reminds me of Because of You though...I'm looking forward to the sales, it'll be better than Glitter, that's for sure.

Translation by HiruNoKaze:
My frank resolution for this year.
The truth is, last year, I had an ear check-up, my diagnosis being that my left ear has completely lost all function and that there is no treatment.
Even so, I want to keep being a singer.
That's why I'll keep singing as long as this remaining right ear works, to its limit.
I won't quit.
I won't make excuses.
As a professional, I will sing the best songs for you*.
I don't really like the word "ganbaru," but...
I will ganbaru**!!!!! At all costs!!!!!!!!!
Until that day, someday...
*Here she uses the word for "everyone," but I think it is better translated as "you." Also, the literal meaning is "I will definitely deliver the best songs to you." for reference.
**ganbaru means persevere or try hard, and it is a word very commonly used in Japanese. For example, as well as being used to mean "try hard," it is used in the same situations that "good luck" would be used in English.

I'm really sad that Ayu has completely lost the hearing of her left ear. I really admire her for not being discouraged, but continue to make music. I just hope that by continuing music, she won't lost her right also.

Ayumi is TRULY a great singer.
Someone who deserve all my respect.
She worked so hard all these years and despite the fact that she can't hear in her left ear anymore, she still keeps going.
I love you AYU, my number 1 idol.
I will always support you~~~~.

^ She always wears ear monitors during live performances so she can hear the music/vocals better. This year though, she said she noticed her hearing in the left ear getting worse and thought it was the monitor so she had them replaced. Her hearing didn't get better so then she went to her doctor and heard the bad news. It's just so sad that she was just a bit too late to be cured...

She has tinnitus and it only got worse for her. Tinnitus is a symptom meaning "ringing in the ears". I guess after pushing to do the Dome Tour she lost 80% of her hearing because she fell a few hours before it started. It has been speculated by AHS members that she has Ménière's disease. Its symptoms are vertigo and tinnitus. The tinnitus could explain why she lost her hearing in her left ear and the vertigo could possibly explain why she tripped during her rehearsal at the Dome Tour. It's all
speculation about Ménière's disease so don't go around saying it's true XD.

On the Taiwanese Charts, GUILTY has been successful. Almost 39.78% of the Jpop sales are of the album and 6.7% of the overall music sales. That's pretty good.
