^totally agree)))Ayu said,that this years countdown is called ayumi hamasaki PREMIUM COUNTDOWN LIVE 2008-2009 and it will contain around 30 songs!!!So it'll be for about 3'5 hours)))

I'v only just started listning to Ayu, her music is amazing! her music style reminds me of Gackt a lot, I just bought the Best black and white and i loved every song, which is amazing because usally an album i buy will have at least a couple of songs i don't like. (except Malice Mizer, i love all there songs too).


Request Can anyone help me with pics please? I'm looking for large clear pics of Ayu from photoshoots that i can use for making wallpapers. um please don't post thumbnails unless there photobucket please, the sights don't load for me, thankyou.

^ hey im glad ure liking most of Ayu's songs, i relli think Ayu has alot of good songs compared to other artists

u should also watch her concerts, it's truly amazing, she also produces them herself!

for pictures u can look around this site, it has almost all her magazine photoshoots, she has nice pictures especially in the popteen ones on the 2nd page

Actually when i bought the best black and white i got the DVD version with the MVs and concert, i thought the concert was amazing, i was glad to here that Ayu's music sounds just as great live!

Ah Unfortunatly the links don't load for me ToT but thankyou very much

i dunno why but these days she seems to need really long to release a new single..-.-

when did panasonic release the new adv. with her new single?!?

2-3-4 months ago?

btw GREEN lyrics & translation(credits to Ayu_no_tenshi):
JAPANESE

光輝いて凛とした木々達が
身を隠すように色を消してゆく
希望へ繋がる何もかもを遠ざけて
温もりをこわがる私のように

あの人の笑顔がもう
眩しくて優しすぎて
弱さ見せてしまいそうで
泣き出してしまいそうで

触れた指の先から
想いが溢れだしそうに
なったあの瞬間から
この恋に気付きました

どうして人は心のままに従い
歩いてゆくのが難しいのだろう
本当はきっとずっと分かってたはずなのにね
現実に目を背けた
真実を否定してた

見つめるその先には愛しきあの人の姿
風が変わる頃にはこの想い伝えようか

触れた指の先から想いが溢れだしそうに
なったあの瞬間から
この恋に気付きました

見つめるその先には愛しきあの人の姿
風が変わる頃にはこの想い伝えようか

la la la...
la la la...

再び芽吹いた木々達が
色づいたら今より
素直な笑顔見せたい

ENGLISH

The color disappeared, erasing the form
Of the trees emanating a cold light
Keeping distance from everything connected to hope
Afraid of the warmth, like me

That smiling face
Is too kind and dazzling
That I show weakness
And burst into tears

From the moment those feelings overflowed
Before our fingers ever touched
I became aware of this love

I wonder why it is so difficult
For people to walk the path their heart lays out for them
Even though I should have always known,
I averted my eyes from reality
I denied the truth

At the moment the wind changes,
Before I can see my loved one,
I wonder if I should say how I feel

From the moment those feelings overflowed
Before our fingers ever touched
I became aware of this love

At the moment the wind changes,
Before I can see my loved one,
I wonder if I should say how I feel

la la la...
la la la...

When the color
Reaches the bloomed trees again
I want to show a more honest smile

i can't believe "Green" is her 2nd most expensive(?) PV she ever made.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGYPJQVTZIc&fmt=18

view the video quick!

QUOTE

Ayu goes global with "Dragonball" movie
Ayumi Hamasaki has been chosen to provide the theme song for the Hollywood-produced live-action "Dragonball" movie. All releases of the film worldwide will use her new rock tune "Rule," sung in Japanese. Director James Wong, said to be a big fan of Hamasaki, extended her the offer.

It is rare for a song by a Japanese artist to be used in all international releases of a movie. And for Hamasaki, this will also be her first time doing a song for a foreign film.

The movie is being released under the title "Dragonball Evolution" in Japan on March 13, ahead of the U.S. release in April. The film is expected to be shown in more than 60 countries around the world.
