The MUSIC MAGAZINE special on Maaya has some really nice photos, a detailed interview and then a 'complete guide' to Maaya's discography. It also has an interview with Suzuki Shoko.

The CDJournal articleis an interview, some messages to Maaya from Suzuki Shoko and Kano Kaori. There's also a page with artists who have influenced Maaya and artists who have a similar feel. There's a little history section as well.

If you are going to get one, go for MUSIC MAGAZINE. It's probably worth it.

I REALLY enjoy the new version of Loop. I didn't like the first one, but this remix emphase all the goodness of this song.
For the rest, I don't know if I feel a difference between this versions and the former ones. It may be psychological, but it seems to me there is more stereophonics works than before, but as I generally listen music in mono, maybe it's just I'm not so used to the headphone rendering of the Maaya songs ;)

Isn't this the third version of Loop? Never liked to earlier versions so I rarely have it on my playlist. Anyway, I too think they finally got it right :)

There's the concert version if that counts. CD-wise it's only the second.

Releasing the CD on the day of the concert and having it on sale at the Budokan was a very good move, I'm sure it gave a nice sales boost.

OK, I finally watched the full PV (I was a good little fan and waited until the DVD came in the mail today), and I want to go on the record as predicting that by the time Maaya turns 31, she'll announce that she's getting married. Something about the wedding-ish scenery in the video and the lyrics of "everywhere" makes me feel that way.

If my prediction fails, well, it's not like the world's going to end or anything. I just thought I'd put something in a public forum so I could point to it and say, "Aha! I called it!" if it does happen that way. Of course any such finger-pointing would likely be drowned out by the cries and weeping of thousands of Maaya fanboys.

I haven't decided if I like the song yet. It usually takes me about ten listens to make that decision.

She sorta dropped some hints at the concert too, about how her dress looked almost like a wedding dress.

[quote="deltafour"]and I want to go on the record as predicting that by the time Maaya turns 31, she'll announce that she's getting married.[/quote]

yes she sings that shes not too far off anymore from her "goal".
BUT i mean it cant be that some1 just decides "hey im 31 now i grab some random guy and get married". if you marry some1 then you need to be together with that person at least for a few years.

if your correct then that would mean shes already in a relationship for quite some time now. OMG she hid it from us T.T *cuts wrists*

but after her birthday concert she said she went home alone. i mean if you got some1 your together with then that person defenitly stays with you on this special day and night. even if she had to go up so early the next day. or maybe not? >< uaaaaaa
