On Music Fair 21~

I'm sooooo excited for this.

She's been invited too, for the end of March HEY! HEY! HEY! special.

Whenever people don't capitalize her name properly... I just think, "And you say you're a fan?!" That goes with other artists like KAT-TUN or EXILE too. D: It's not "Exile" or "Kat-Tun" people, THEIR NAMES ARE COMPLETELY CAPITALIZED. D:

[Guest garnet_moon]

Yes me too! I am excited for that episode!!!!!

[Guest Raw Sugar]

ayaka - Te wo Tsunagou (Music Japan)

She looks and sounds great. : D

Did they air that episode of Music Fair 21 already? O:

[Guest garnet_moon]

^ Yeah they aired the first part of the whole month special of MF21

ayaka performed Towani with Gospellers, DBSK, CHEMISTRY, Hideaki Tokunaga, Mika Nakashima. Also she performed Te wo Tsunagou.

[darkdragon88]

Yes! I found the ayaka thread. She's is awesome awesome awesome. My favourite singer of all time!! I pretty much love all her songs, but the ones which stand out for me are all her ballads.

[Guest lisaaa]

looks like there's no new album in april. instead, there's a new single on may 14th, called "okaeri". it's the theme song to the drama "Zettai Kareshi" (which airs on april 8th). the song's described as a mid-tempo love ballad.

[Guest Raw Sugar]

^ I heard about that. I'm quite disappointed. I was really looking forward to an album. Now, when she does release an album, it's gona be full of her A-side singles. This is going to be her 6th single since First Message, and two of the previous singles were double A-side. Which means if she puts all her A-side on her future album, they'll be 8 tracks already. ):

[Guest chocopocky]

She's definitely talented. She's worth looking forward to.

[Guest supper]

woot new and solid thread! gonna catch up with her updates~~

haha i love her perfomance much more than her records.

hmm the 2nd album really gonna be a full a-side, no new songs?

[Guest AkiraXHebe]

^I don't think so. Someone above mentioned that there'll be 8 track already in her new album, but there may be 15 tracks in total, so we'll have 6,7 new tracks. Anyway, there hasn't been any confirmation about the 2nd album yet. On the contracy, it's rumored that another single'll out at May 14th name おかえり (Okaeri).

Te wo Tsunagu's sale's low, so did the recent ones. I wonder if her new album can reach 500k mark (not to mention another First Message).

For no reason, i'm really excited to see Ayaka and my DBSG boys together

[Guest supper]

woo ok thanks for telling. if its a dvd-cd ver., with her mvs, i definitely gonna get it no matter the cost.

yeah just hope that her 2nd album sales can break her own record.

[Guest xjuyonx]

Love her! Her voice is so pretty I watched Music Fair 21, and she performed Te Wo Tsunagou... so good!

I think ayaka is more of an album seller than a single seller. Or well, I'm hoping she is. ^^; I'm guessing she'll release an album during the summer or something.

if its a dvd-cd ver., with her mvs, i definitely gonna get it no matter the cost.

I don't think Warner Music releases CD+DVD editions that often. ayaka isn't much of an "idol" so she doesn't need CD+DVD editions. She's not like Aragaki Yui - who has more of an idol image - who released a CD+DVD edition of her album.

[Guest garnet_moon]

I really can't wait for ayaka's new album. I just hope it won't be full of a and b-sides

The Dream Live performances were just amazing as always.
