I like Zutto a lot.. sad ballad

I love Countdown and Last Minute doesn't remind me of it lol.

I just listened to Last minute again and I'm in tears because the backing vocals are legit louder than the main vocals. I'm just so dead at Ayu's team still being like "what is mixing" all these years later

Thanks :P ok, where do i start...

Zutto...: Still with the same opinion as before, Hello new me's winter cousin.

Walk: It started nice, but i got bored as it kept playing.

Last Minute: Nice beginning, then i was like whatah when she started getting emotional, then BOOM! Things started to sound good until the chorus came in. Still, the best song all of these three.

And i take back what i said before about it sounding like Last Links, it doesn't at all... just a little bit. :rolleyes:P

Yeah, I would say the melodies are very subtle this time around.

These kinds of songs are great, though. I feel like, since the melody doesn't instantly grab you, you sort of discover all the nuances of the song more gradually with each listen. I mean, I can tell they're not awful melodies, they're just not entirely straightforward.

It's a shame about the mixing. the awful mixing has been going on since Party Queen, and especially with her rock songs. reminds me and Return Road were HORRIFIC.

oh ayu, I'm at work now! don't make me cry in front of people
Last minute is amazing

Agree! My first reaction to walk was like "what is this I cannot remember anything" But somehow something keeps grabbing me back and now I'm obsessed by what it tries to convey.

Overall opinion based on the short versions:
+s of this single: Ayu is back, the Ayu sound is back and the musical arrangements are really good (yay for pianos
- of this single: all three songs will remind you of any song from her discography. To be specific: it sounds like LOVE again, again.

So yea I am not really digging it. I might be able to say something bad on every song of the trilogy, but it's 7 AM in the morning here, I am really tired and really do not feel like starting my (and your) day with negativity. I guess I am as much as a ballad type as I am a morning person.

I guess I agree they are sort of generic, but I actually think these songs are some of the better ones she has released in a long time. They are better than the whole Colours album, imo. (I didn't like that album at all, so yeah.)

yay finally the previews are out!
I love what i've heard from all 3 previews.
my fave track would be Last Minute! always love her rock ballad.. ala count down!
walk sounds very unique, love it.
zutto sounds like the ballads in love again album n it sounds pretty great.

so, last minute > walk > zutto

waiting for zutto PV!

Last minute is soon good. I wasn't won over with these until I put some headphones in and heard the various intricacies of the arrangement. And really felt the compositions more. I'm excited to hear the full songs.

Amazing arrangements, and her vocals are stunningly interesting!

I love them. They sound just like Ayu, classic one meaning Last minute studio version is messy but studio version of Memorial Address is also not listenable, live though....oh god strenght of this song is stunning, i say here it will be very similar in this case. It's a mix of Memorial A. with Count down - it will be a good song live. Zutto and Walk sound really nice too. No experimenting this time, strong release and she realised somethingm i trully do hope people will see it.

Walk : I rarely like TK song...so no wonder, i don't really like the song...

Zutto... : I love this song...

Last Minute : definitely have Memorial Address vibe on it...but i like this song better than Memorial Address...

for me Zutto... > Last Minute > Walk

Zutto I like it. Yeah, it's been done before, but that's nice once in a while too.

Last Minute: Great lyrics! ;-; The rock part needs to grow on me a bit.

Walk: LOVE IT. Love the arrangement or whatever you call it.

I think I like zutto the least of the previews.
But videos can often make or break a song for me, so we'll see :)

I see myself listening to Walk the most.

I'm interested in this song the most

I'm not impressed with the previews. I hope the songs will grow on me after I listen to them in full. Walk is boring, I don't even remember it. Last minute would be the same if it weren't for that rock part. Zutto is ok and I think I'll like it the most.

Overall, I like all three songs. I think Walk is the least memorable, but still.

Wow!!!! Can't wait for the full version! I really like what I hear from the 3 previews.
