Jpop News - November
|
Ayumi Hamasaki's Voyage single ranks number one in sales for the month of November. Look for her new album entitled Rainbow in stores this September. Hamasaki was inspired when she visited New York where the 9/11 attacks occured. The meaning of "Rainbow" in her album means to bridge hope between people. However, fans will not find the actual track on the CD. Special limited editions will be sold which contain a password for fans to log on to a special website where they can hear the instrumental version of this song. Fans then can send in their feelings, thoughts, or lyrics about the tune and Hamasaki will select the best one when she actually writes the lyrics. Once the song is finished, it will be released at a later date. |
