It's so strange that instead of just releasing the music videos MEANT for promotion and for fans (and non-fans) to hear/see, we have to now wait and rely on leaks in order to hear the songs in full.
it just seems backwards to me.
I swear it's like, Avex: "Our new strategy is, instead of airing full videos, we air half of it, but only sometimes. Sometimes we don't even do that. Sometimes we hold on to them and only air them a week after release. And since people in China get the cd's really fast, we'll let them leak it illegally before it's released and before videos have been shown. Also, we've just heard of this new site called YouTube, we're still looking up how to properly use that. We hear some people watch things on it."
I just remember the time when fairyland was sang on Hey!x3 like, a long time before the single was even released, and listening to and watching the show over and over and over and being so excited. I feel like it was much earlier than most of her performances went in terms of promoting before release date. (June 27th, 2005 was the Hey!x3 air date, the single was released August 3rd.) She performed it 4 times before it was released! gah
