"Why" an artist does anything is an impossible question to answer. Your guess is as good as anyone else's, really.

Look up the lyrics and see if it gives you some insight.

I thought the guy said "yeah right" in response to Ayu's lyrics where she sang "Because I'm so strong".

^ Same here. . I never knew what the guy said, but I thought it ended so abruptly because of the "because I'm so strong", and the ending is saying that she's not. lol.

Hey Deli, I think I remember you having done a version that ended without the abruptness. Might you still have that? Or am I misremembering?

Well, there could only be a few explanations for that:

-The single version you listened was actually the LOVEppears version mislabeled.
-You have a bootleg A single, with the album version recorded instead of the single version.
-You listened to the A COMPLETE SINGLES version, and thought it was the single, when that album actually has the album version instead.
-You listened to the single version only once and didn't pay attention to the end
-you actually listened to the single version, but the mp3 player had a sound fading/transition for the next song that often erases the last few seconds of the songs when you're listened to a set of tracks

I also think the man is saying in response to the last line of the lyrics.
I think it's kinda special that it's included for A COMPLETE. hahaz

I got the same too. I thought it's just mine. Now I know many of you got the same. I think the guy is mad to something and closed the door. That is what I'm thinking of.

It's because Ayu is, like, edgy

Seriously, I've always wanted a complete version of Monochrome. I'd like to think it exists somewhere in Avex's archives of unreleased material.

I really should watch more of Ayu's older live performances

Wouldn't it be much cooler, though, if there was a cut-off even for the live version? Ayu and her dancers just stop all of a sudden, everything stands still, cue Evolution

That would honestly be AWESOME.

Pinkshinigami: If the length is 4:21, then that's the whole track.
