I think one of the most expensive things about it was hiring out the club that they used.

judging from the props used in the pv wouldn't make it expensive
what club was it? and if it have the same value as the jewels used in JEWEL, it must be expensive, is the club in europe?

no idea man

I always thought JEWEL was the most expensive PV coming from ayumi , I was surprised it goes to fairyland

for fairyland I think it's because of the house that was burnt down at the end . If so it seems silly to burn & throw away US$2 million down the drain if that's the case !

If it's for JEWEL , then I can understand due to all the bling bling that was used .

For my name's WOMEN , I really don't know . I always thought that the club venue in the PV was in the studio & all

for fairyland, i think it will be quite expensive to borrow a piece of land from hawaii government, besides that, the helicopter they used, the burning house and other stuff, it will be make sense if it is damn expensive. for my name's women, maybe the women are all super model in their country?

I still think that it's the whole burning of the house which constitutes a big bulk of the production $

oo what about earring ayu was wearing, could it be really expensive?
but how do they determine how expensive a pv is? do they keep count of everything they used? everything they rent

fairyland, i think what's most expensive could just be the land they were filming on, the helicopter...could cost a lot to rent, but i still think airplane fees would be a lot..., maybe they had a boat at the beginning, when the camera was coming close to the beginning. what about the dance lessons?

Edit: did the people in my names WOMEN costed a lot to hire?

I checked on travelocity.com for ticket pricings from Tokyo to Honolulu and it was about US$1,300 for one adult.

i would think a lot, and include the camera people, unless they use natives?
but did they shot it during summer or spring, cause the plane tickets are more during the vacation seasons
