It’s also interesting how this is specifically mentioning “crossroad”—in that that was the last song Komuro had done both the composition and arrangement. To me, that’s still probably one of the best Komuro song in her discography, but I also wonder if that means he had far less involvement in the other ones? (Were they just stock tracks that existed in his catalogue that she bought?) And by mentioning “crossroad”, I wonder if Ayu also feels this will be just as strong a song?
Edit: Wait, Sending mail was also both composed and arranged by Komuro. So now I’m getting into conspiracy theories lol. Were they done around the same time? Both meant to be a single? On the same single? Was sending mail in fact done first, making crossroad the “newer” one by technicality? Or did Ayu simply forget? Lol

The Show Must Go On and Dreamed a Dream are also TK compositions. I guess the translation wasn't accurate enough, but they are saying Mask is the first song he composed AND arranged for her since crossroad. All the other songs are composed but not arranged by him.
