come on :P! we were not going to have any clip ! it has been done without any improvisation and to promote the song and the lyric!

according to IG, she saw imitating her on twitter and the got the phone number, they met and recorded this video for all her fans

I got a feeling this was filmed by her using drone lol

I like how they censored faces, but not Louis Vuitton

Her vocals are really nice on this track. There is a nuance in this style of ballad that’s different than her other ballads.

I just love the song. It really speaks to me

The video fits perfectly to the song and the message. There’s no need to be top model / top notch production, it’s okay just the way it is.

Loving the last two releases... her studio vocals have been ON FIRE, and pretty fresh (for her standards) songwriting as well

Loving the verse rather than the chorus, so fresh by using an acoustic guitar. Simplicity and nothing over the top. While the melody on the chorus is not my favorite.

When I first watched the PV, I wondered if this is just another "creative" promotion for the song, that they released this version with this comedian acting as ayu first, and will release another "true" version of the PV some day later, with ayu in the position of the girl...(or maybe showing her as the director holding the camera/drone is also a very special point of view) but then I think I was totally wrong. THIS IS THE PV OMG

Edit: The song itself is very nice, and I love the lyrics and the messages.

And Hermes.

Just the way you are is beautiful. I cried a bit. I'm sure it'll be very emotional if she sings it in concert

Exactly this. I've seen especially Japanese fans complain that they want a version with Ayu, but I think the simplicity the video has, while also starring a girl who's not conventionally beautiful, sells it much more. Yes, it's low budget, but that again feels like a strong point, because it makes it seem like just one person walking down the city. It feels human.

I've watched the video without sound, because I want to try and not listen to it until the album releases. I caved for (N)Ry, but if I listen to Jtwya too, then only Remember you and VIBEES will be new, besides the interludes and remix of course.

and now she created a challenge for making the video likes that #justthewayyouare challenge

I think based on her post, this is a sudden idea that she got and twist it to make a marketing strategy as well. I hope it works.

The song is great, classic ending ballad, nothing out of the ordinary. The beginning reminds me a bit of ''Love Letter'' by GACKT.

It would have derserved to be maybe a minute longer as it ends is soon as it builds up.

I like it. Great vocals, nice lyrics and it doesn’t have that “wall of noise” vibe that bugs me in her other recent songs.

Just saw the video and I which they hired Naomi Watanabe to lipsync in that video.

Otherwise I am not of fan of the message of that song and video, I find it hypocritical a little when ayu hire fat people to say they are beautiful when she had how many cosmetic interventions and has always been very careful of her body and always edit her promo pictures (and I am not saying that in a bad way).

It feels she just picked somebody she judges unapealing to her standards and pretend to empower her. I don't know if that actress is famous, if she is, then my mind may change.

I would have prefer to just see ayu shoot the video without make up and filter.

Ooh the video was so sweet! How often I have pretended I sang Ayu's songs live for a big audience... in the bathroom! The video got that atmosphere! Seeing her doing this together with a fan is so special.

I love the lyrics, not a big fan of the song yet. But I have totally grown into NRY, so I will give this one also to chance and give it a couple more listens.

I am so ready for VIBEES. I think Remember you is going to be something like TODAY, but I can't imagine anything for the other. I pray for a Sparkle part 2!

I want to know the meaning of the lyrics. Anyone has an English translation, please? I need to listen to this song more and understand the lyrics before... hahah. Thank you in advance.

I second that man!!! Hahah

I think there is a back story on this, on her Instagram post, on why she choose the lady to act

I did a little bit of research about the lady, she is a part of a comedy duo, active on Instagram but more active on Twitter (https://twitter.com/KumamoP)
