[Didz-19]

OMGG!!!! I'm gonna cry!!!

[SURREAL__RAINBOW]

It sounds very nice! Hoping for it to become a single

[Deep snow]

From the preview this seems to be a promising number! I hope she's releasing this as a single before a wonderful new album

The only thing I have reservations for is that she's using her Ivy voice here. I don't know how to describe it. It sounds raw at times, e.g. "Tatta hitotsuu moshi negai gaaaa" - in the bold part she sounds...struggling to be on pitch. And I noticed this repeated several times in the preview as well. Raw, is probably a good way to describe it. It would be good if she touches up on her voice for the final mix but somehow I have a feeling that that's not gonna happen :s (but it happened before in her old songs, i.e. STEP you, About You, GREEN, Moments - they're all different from their CM versions)

Yup, I agree about that raw-ness, I think she needs to work on her technique for that part, don't think its going to be good for her voice in a long run.
It sounds like a good song but the music is abit cheap I think, for a movie like this, I feel they should have went with more orchestra sounds to get the real impact.

There's definitely an orchestral backing here.

Lots of strings/piano/horns going on.

The song was completed a few months ago, Deep snow. This doesn't exactly count as a CM Mix, I think.

[Deep snow]

Yeah so that 'feeling' I got is pretty much confirmed by that, then.

[truehappiness]

I kinda hear it too, but it's just how she sings now.

This preview... I JUST KEEP LOOPING IT. Also that woman's 'aughhh!' cracks me up.

[Mirrorcle Monster]

I already know im gonna love it, ayu is the absolute queen of ballads

[YUKARI]

the trailer is nice, I want to see this anime in the cinema *.*

[kendelle]

That "aishiteru kara" part gives me goosebumps

Hells yes to this song. I am so excited!!
