What's Japan's reception to the single?
|
This single is my jammmmm
|
Not sure really...
I've only seen reactions to Pray recently. I imagine most fans are happy with the single though from the ones I saw before when short versions came out. |

there is no tv CM for this? any single promo truck around Shibuya? |
There are a lot of other releases before 12/25. If we are going to see promotion, it will be closer to release.
At the BBS I look at for info, they are saying they like the single and suddenly got obsessed with it recently~ They also have plans to buy it when it comes out. |
^ awesome!
is this an Ayu BBS or just a general one? Quote:
I love the trucks! Hopefully it gets billboards as well ;) |

whats that BBS? |
btw did Avex cut cost on Ayu PV? just a lil remark here,she wore the pink Neff beanie in the studio in TA vid,then saw it in Vivi diary then in MGR PV, Ayu never did this before,
|
so much new info for me! lol.
Cant wait to get my copy. |
Quote:
The PVs may look cheaper due to it being more expensive to shoot overseas. |

An unofficial Merry-go-round solo version I found through the tags of tumblr. Thought it'd be interesting to share with some people who may not like the feature. |
thanks for the solo ver.!
|
I didn't make it, I just stumbled upon it randomly! xD but you're welcome!
|
Ayu really loves Neff items now. I think it's just because they're really nice beanies. I need to buy another one.
For some reason they have split Merry-go-round's PV across three sites. The first part is at YouTube. Second part is at GyaO. Third part is at NicoNicoDouga. So odd! http://www.billboard-japan.com/d_news/detail/16948 |

But thanks for sharing. |
its her single after 3 years, poor single, Ayu dropped a bomb today
|
This single is going to sell 4 copies, which I pre-ordered
|
I don't think this will hurt the single. The Maro thing was messed up because it involved divorces/children/other women.
|
Her engagement didn't make me excited for the new single any less! Just realized how Merry-Go-Round is winter sounding to me.
|
Merry Go Round sounds decent...compared to the first one.
|
The single is doing pretty well on mu-mo's sales ranking, that's good :)
|
No full scan yet? A clean version from the covers?
|
The CD isn't out for a little under two weeks....
|
bummer... I thought there might be a leaks for that. Like that big cd+dvd cover. Oh does her website change the theme already?

i've listened to the single & i really think this one of ayu's best singles ever. it's absolutely amazing!
i love both "Feel the love" & "Merry-go-round" so much that it's hard to pick a favorite out of the two, lol. but if i had to choose, i'd say "Merry-go-round" would be my most favorite. i just can't stop listening to it! it's amazing. but i still love "Feel the love", too. :) |

it's too strange that all the hype about the single is over almost 2 weeks before the actual release :rolleyes
|
Well, the single came out and we got both PVs.
I am looking forward to the A Interview. |
^ I totally forgot about that! Actually pretty curious too, wonder what she will say.
|
Quote:
|
^ Or maybe she'll just talk about anniversary and thank fans and stuff haha Hopefully it'll be something interesting though and I hope someone will make subs
|
Finally bought feel the love/merry-go round from iTunes Indonesia, I LOVE THIS SINGLE, very catchy. Of course I already preordered physical CD from cdjapan and don't have plan to cancel it b'cos I just fall in love with this single and want to support ayu :)
|
whoever made the solo version, thanks! i love it a bit more than the rap one.. though both are nice.. haha.

|
She looks flawless on these covers - I can't wait to buy this!
|
i cna't get over how amazing the blasterjaxx remix is, its so omg i would go wild at a club with this
|
I don't get how some of you guys like the rapless version of Merry-go-round. Without VERBAL, the song sounds so empty. Y'all just gonna have to deal anyway cause VERBAL adds a lot to that song.
|
^ VERBAL's raps sound all the same in every song imo, not that good, and the second rap part was totally unnecessary, it sounds kind of misplaced in the song...

I don't really understand why people don't like the VERBAL rap anyway...

I think if they were gonna do a second one, they should have altered what was being said a bit.
|
I like Verbal's rap, without it the song would be less interesting
|
I like the rap part too!
And I like how the second part is misplaced, that adds something to the song. Just like Missing have something similar. Without that, the song would be just a random song. Microphone also have something "strange" on the tempo. It's not the first time a song have some part out of tempo :) |

|
I also like the rap part :)

It's weird going back and listening to this, lol. |
The final version sounds so much better and not really eurobeat like in the recordings XD Feel the love's fantastic!
|
Official Feel the love / Merry-go-round CM !
(not on ayu's youtube page but on LiveSpot's page, surprising ! ) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHwDj0Qzolo |
yay!
|
Wow!!! Yeahhh!!!
|
i think her 51st single is pretty good! its cover is considered one of the better ones in recent times and merry-go-round is so good! she's trying to make music that appeals to the mass market again!
|
CM! looks nice :)
|
|
OMG SLIM CASES FOR CD+DVD NOW
And I missed the "hamasaki ayumi.... Feel the love.... Merry-go-round" blurb in CMs. |
ALREADY?

|

ganbatte ayu!! |
All of the Feel the love/Merry-go-round related videos on YouTube now total 1.1 million+ views!
Somehow Feel the love's short version got a huge boost recently. |
^ Yep! Merry-go-round too. They just doubled in 2 days or so O_o
|
I'm very excited to be receiving my physical copy of the CD as my friend is gifting me it for the holidays. Ayu's latest single is really good. I do prefer Merry-go-round moreover Feel the love however.

Quote:
Hopefully this means that the sales will be good! In any case, I'm anxiously waiting for my copies to arrive so I can listen to the remixes I've seen several people praising highly. |
