No way to say Featured on Oricon

The homepage of the Oricon Charts has featured ayu's new single No way to say in its Recommended CDs spot. This is not the first time a release by ayu has been featured, but the words are very special and very telling of the impact this single is having on listeners already. Provided that this single is given credit for what it is, it may be a huge step toward recementing widespread for ayu and perhaps gaining a higher demographic than she already enjoys. The words of this recommendation on the Oricon Charts hompeage were extremely candid and very moving.


The text is as follows:

お恥ずかしい話ですが、先日のスペシャルライヴで初め て、彼女のかわいさと根性と完璧さを目の当たりにしま した。これほどの人がこんな弱い気持ちを歌ったら、そ りゃ私のような平々凡々人間は気持ちを掴まれます。心 底納得。「No way to say“Original  Mix”」は『恋するハニカミ!』(TBS系)テーマソング、Panasonic『MJ57』CMソング 。

Translation:

It's embarassing to say this, but beginning with her special live some days ago, her charm, spirit, and perfection were placed before my eyes. When she sings this much of the feeling of weakness, she has a full grasp on the emotions of any ordinary person, like myself. [No way to say "Original Mix"] is the theme song of TBS's [The Shy One I love] and the CM song of Panasonic's [MJ 57].
