Maybe some people just like it in general? I hope so. And I say "some" because although we are celebrating it, it isn't anything groundbreaking and pretty average as far as sales generally go, but hey it isn't all about sales anyway and it's a great song.

Also, reaction to the song on the official tales boards is overwhelmingly positive, just fyi

I laughed out loud.

Well that's great too then ( :yes ). As long as there's someone out there enjoying (and buying) it, it's all good~ But I don't understand why you posted the cover in this post?

It can't completely be contributed to the game of course. I can't think of any well known singers whose singles don't get tie ups, and if BoA got a big one that's great but it can't be just cause of that of course.

I don't mean this in a rude way, but it's almost mean to assume that the only reason she got better-than-average sales is because it's tie up is a popular video game.

Huaka 25th December 2009 05:26 AM

You get a special download code for the game if you buy the single so that might be why a lot more people are getting it. I know my boyfriend is buying the single just for that reason, not because he necessarily likes the song.

FAIL

It IS just being bought because of the freaking tie up then ( :dead2 ). Maybe they should do this for all of BoA releases ( :laugh ).

Misato 25th December 2009 12:14 PM

Wow! I love the Cover! BoA looks so hot on it!

Tom Punks 25th December 2009 01:19 PM

LOL WHAT A BAD TRACKLIST. @__@

Seriously, two interludes for a 13 track album?! AND her most boring song ever, "THE END soshite and..." is gonna be on there? No thanks, but I think I might pass on this one. :<

Maemi 25th December 2009 02:13 PM

The covers are probably the worst in her career, if we don't count MIT. And about tracklist...it sucks that there will be 2 preludes, but maybe new songs will be great, so it's pointless to argue about that.

noisy_harmony 25th December 2009 02:49 PM

Covers are good. I like the second one.
is this love and my all remind me of Ayu xD LOL fallin' also, because of rollin' ;D
I have positive thoughts about this album. Interludes are new thing and I hope they'll be good. It's a shame that songs from eien single aren't here, but I understand it. Nevermind, any BoA next album including this will be better than horrible THE FACE...

~Inori~ 25th December 2009 03:07 PM

Don't really like the first cover. The second one is my favorite.

I'm liking the title of some of the tracks like "This Is Who I Am". (Who has a feeling it like "Girls On Top", but just about BoA?)

Kinda doesn't make sense they make a PV for "possibility" and they didn't even add it to the DVD track list.

Also I wonder how "Neko Love" (ネコラブ, Cat Love) is going to sound. It just seems weird to have a song with that title.

U-GO-BOY 25th December 2009 03:34 PM

^ it will of course be a cover of Anna Tsuchiya's Virgin Cat ;) xD

freedreamer 25th December 2009 03:44 PM

I thought there's a new PV?

This Is Who I Am, LAZER, is this love, Possibility duet with 三浦大知
12: fallin'
13: my all

THose are the songs i wanna hear.
fallin' and my all..LOL..titles ripped from Stephanie and AYu totally

Actually if you look at the Oricon page it shows that most people are buying the CD+DVD version than the Tales of Graces version.

Week 1
Week 2

roanmy 25th December 2009 05:20 PM

I like the covers =D

ayumisrael 25th December 2009 05:22 PM

I like the CD+DVD cover though I wish BoA would be there with a long hair.
Oh well.

I'm dying to hear BoA's rendition for her own my all (MY ALL). XDDD

Mirai Noah 25th December 2009 05:32 PM

I like the first cover, but only 13 tracks? :(

kotora 25th December 2009 06:12 PM

To be honest, some people needs to get the **** out of there once there is thing to criticize or complain yet they don't really like BoA. It is so obvious those (or that) members has barely / never write things for BoA.

Stop your drama and get your drama out.



I think the cover is kind of inspired by ayu "Identity" because the cover is "rockish" and ayu's "Identity" is "rockish" too.

The font on this cover is better than LOVE LETTER a lot.

GRACE 25th December 2009 06:17 PM

I love the cover and the tracklist *____* the titles all sound really interesting, I hope they're good <3
