Thoughts on Sunrise ~ LOVE IS ALL~?

[kotora]

It sounds to me like independent (Clapping effect)/ Humming 7/4 (just feeling) + NEXT LEVEL style of music (electric style).

Indeed, it is not like her BLUE BIRD / Glitter style of summer songs.

Nice try, ayu.


GUYS, No Fight Please.

[Dinex_Taiwan]

Unlike her other summerish songs, this one doesn't sound much attractive like BLUE BIRD. Also, it doesn't sound up-beat like July 1st. However, the new music style gives me a fresh feeling compared to her previous summer single. I think it is still a good try for her to use different music style.

[rakeru]

the chorus is great and fits the season, but the verse seems awkward. it's as if she planned the chorus and verses to be different songs and combined them suddenly. still sounds fun and energetic. i can imagine it being a concert staple.

[Picaflor 7/4]

recycled. its nice. but come on....

July 1st, independent, +, fairyland, next level, bluebird, greatful days, glitter ~episode LXXXVIII~

[Kingdom]

it's mediocre at this point for me, but that's liable to change when we get pvs.

i like the verses but i hate the chorus. i think that's the opposite opinion of most ayu fans

[Larisa-chan]

It's nothing special for me at this moment...

[milky_way]

I'm pretty 'meh' about it right now.

...it doesn't sound like any of those songs ^^;; well, you could argue it's on the vein of July 1st and independent, but those don't sound like any of the others on that list either.

I really like it <3 It's different and it's a lot of fun!

[Chu-Lip506]

i sure when its pv & single realease i might be better, I still like it. I can't wait to here the mega-mix thingy lol

Ayu already said in her daily this is an energetic song, but well everyone has different tastes and one song seems impossible to satisfy all of her fans.

Probably she needs to work with 中田ヤスタカ lol

[love in music]

god i love it. i need to stop myself from listening so much.
there are only some parts in the music that i don't like (banging noises?) but other than that, it's totally addicting and i love the voice she's using here! it sounds like something from 2002/2003 mixed with a bit of her NEXT LEVEL style. it's great

[yuki_unmei]

I love it so far and it sounds alot different thn her other summer songs. Plus her voice is much more natural in this song.
And the parts where the dancers sing...that's deffinitely gonna be where she has the crowd sing it in the concerts! ^^

[truehappiness]

NO.

And recycled? I swear some people want her to do some sort of Bjork-y like music just so that they can say "This doesn't sound like anything she's done before, which is nice..".

Which imo is utterly ~bollocks~ or whatever. It's like.. of course it's gonna sound like something! She has over 150 songs in her discography! Though she does pull out a song that's completely new every so often for an album, but of course, albums have always been home to her more experimental tracks like kiss o' kill and so on..

I just feel like this track was tailormade to please the Japanese public. Whether or not we like that.. depends on the individual.

To be honest, I've felt as though if Ayu goes too far out there [Bold&Delicious, Sparkle] some people might FREAK OUT.. and then when she plays it safe, people FREAK OUT as well. It's like there's almost no middle ground for most people. I swear I've stated this before, but I guess it's because the fan reaction [from the exact same fans] is the same every time she releases something new regardless if it's new-sounding or not.. hm. It's like.. people don't know what they want, so they complain, but they have nothing that they want to see her do. They just say it isn't what they were expecting or that they aren't happy with it. Then what WOULD they be happy with, you know?

Working with 中田ヤスタカ that was a joke, and that is the reason why I lol'd.

As she always gets inspired by Madonna, I hope she would not try to bring other singers in songs.. like

"STICKY feat. Koda Kumi"
"La La La feat. Teamayu members"

[truehappiness]

Haha, yeah.

If Ayu works with Nakata for a remix or rearrange, I am fine with that...

But, blah if they make a track together. It seems like only people who REALLY NEED IT go to him.

[Lee^ChaN]

i don't know..
it's meh.. nothing special..

[Andrenekoi]

I really liked it... fresh and new^^

[Lanz16]

Very refreshing and fun!

[thesilentspeaker]

I like the beginning~~ But the chorus dont seem to link~~
Hmm, maybe it'll sound smoother after listening it to a few more times..
It does sound like a summer song!! <3

[freedreamer]

Hahah..wasnt expecting a slower verse...I was thinking mabe that kind of energ throughout the song...

BUT ITS REALLY REFRESHING!!! she sounded quite cute and its just soooo happy!

issit me..she sounds different than the previous preview we had...especially at the higher parts...the men chorus really works! hahaha

And just wanna say...seeing that so many people are not feeling it now...i bet its gonna be a hit in Japan
