And anyways, I don't care for the song, so I don't care about the release either. I don't see it being successful after HEART STATION already releasing though. Blah...

Actually, "Last Friends", the drama which will feature this song, is (IMO) the powerhouse of the Spring. Artistes like Ueno Juri (Nodame), Nagasawa Masami (Proposal Daisakusen), Eita (Orange Days, WATER BOYS, Atsu-Hime), and Nishikido Ryo (1 Litre, vocalist for NEWS) really kill, to be honest. So many big names starring in one drama is bound to bring A LOT of attention. So those that didn't purchase HEART STATION will (or the single), and if the -quiet version- is featured, then that'll boost sales, chaku-uta or otherwise.
