![]() ![]() I'm really sorry if my thoughts about these PVs differ from anyone else's. This, to me, is a reference to how modern idols are more and more 'manufactured', and like she's asking 'Where's the Originality?' In Red/Purple Ayu however, we see scenes where she looks like a robot we also see Purple Ayu putting on this weird head machine at some points in the PV too. At least she performed as a natural human being. And then she becomes Purple Ayu, which looks like Lady Gaga, showing an even more pronounced sexual evolution in idols in modern times.ģ) Idol Ayu, in her short time in the PV, was at least presented as being 'natural'. This, to me, is like how singers become more "sex-ified" in the 90s with idols like Britney and X-Tina. Indeed, the 'clean' image was the right way to go back in those days, but when Red sexy Ayu comes along, it's like Britney in 'Oops! I Did It Again'. When sexy Ayu comes along, the screen changes to 16:9 that's a reference to HDTV which is getting popular, even Pokemon anime is switching to 16:9!Ģ) Idol Ayu is presented as innocent and adorable. I think it's more like a statement that singers/idols in the past are different from them now.ġ) 4:3 screen ration during Idol Ayu TV screens in those days were all 4:3. ![]() Some people say the sexy Ayu is a fantasy of Idol Ayu, but I get to differ. Along the way, there were a lot of people (Nagase, her deceased friend, her 'mama', her dancers, etc) who helped along the way. it's like she's walking (her career), she has faced many seasons and a lot of time has past. and the guy opening up the umbrella for her for that few seconds was so symbolic to me. Something like the falling leaves, rain, fireworks are representing seasons passage of time (possible reference to her 10/11 years in the music industry). This, to me, is kind of like a watered down version of Dearest. and the horses are like traveling at the "same speed" and seeing the "same scenery" as her. but the PV to me is mostly just references to the lyrics. I like how another user has said the road she's driving is like endless road of life. How everything is a set (movie set) = she can't control anything like not ayu, but some idol singer who secretly wants to be exciting? LOLĪnyways, think Curtain call is about ayu, staying the same but going through the seasons (rain snow ex), it would explain how the chorus is repeated again later, and she is missing someoneĭifferent weather = moving moving past her I think Sparkle tells more of a story though. During her dream she frees her fantasy and body and explode in a sexy young women. The real Ayu is a cute Idol, polite, not sexy and always pretty simple and childish, a humile submissed figure. I think it is a parody of japanese society. Mmh.just a few words for Sparkle (even if i love it). We don't know why we keep going on, when and if we could reach our goals or where this road takes to, we have only to drive on and on reaching everyday new levels, that means become more mature, self confident trying to make our best. I felt that this neverending road where Ayu is driving on, rappresents her/our life. When i firs saw the PV I linked the title of the song with the images.
