They do it all the time Like I said in another thread, people are never happy. They'll find any little thing to criticise

Pride has a nice tune however the vocal sounds a bit too low and dull to suit the song. Also it sounds lyk songs hitomi shimatani sings.

i think Pride is rather sad and slow.. which makes it boring.. and i hear Bold & Delicious again, it sounds nicer to me cos its rather ALIVE... lol

we should not criticise too much.. wait till the full version is out...

And this is her 4th single this year which have drastically different side dishes! Bold And Delicious and Pride are total opposites too! Just like all the others! Which means the new album will be full of everything for everybody! ^^ I love all her singles this year!

I really like it! XD...

I must point this out but....

a few notes well~ the tune is like...EXCATLY THE SAME as Gackt's Hoshi no Suna XD...with about 3 notes differences?! XD

...the part where she goes "hito kimushi nani mo na baka ni mo... (from hearing)", the first 3 bars of the chorus EXCALTY the SAME as the first few 3 bars of Hoshi No Suna, the piano part XD Even if Gackt's one is only use like twice or three times and was not a "main tune" XD

NEVERTHELESS!! I STILL LIKE IT! XD I want to know who composed it XD

Yeah, it DOES sound the same. How on earth you noticed that?

I totally agree! For example, I loved Fairyland/Alterna -single, but wasn't too fond of HEAVEN/Will (Will is okay, but I find HEAVEN boring, although it's lyrics are great). As you said, it's everything for everybody!

Oh, and a side note: I've really started to like Bold & Delicious now. Way more than Pride.

My ranking of this years songs would be:
1. Alterna
2. Fairyland
3. Bold & Delicious
4. Will
5. STEP you
6. Pride
7. HEAVEN

Sorry... I just don't like HEAVEN that much.

I think I'm the only one who likes Pride more than Bold & Delicious..

As for Bold & Delicious..Bland & Tasteless is the best way to describe it.. *cough*

Ooh! Sorry, I did indeed. So then the list would be like this:

1. Alterna
2. Fairyland
3. Bold & Delicious
4. Will
5. STEP you
6. is this LOVE?
7. Pride
8. HEAVEN

Don't get me wrong, I don't think is this LOVE?/Pride/HEAVEN are bad, I like them all, but the other four are just better. It seems that almost everyone here loves is this LOVE? and HEAVEN...

Let's see how the single sells, then judge her.
Two years too many.

I for one don't worship people to fill a void in my own existance. If something they do is lame; I'll say it.

Huh? Rushed? Not at all. Her new album was beautifully made with a lot of ethereal tracks. It's actually one of my favourite albums to date.

Bold And Delicious is anything but bland or tasteless. Its more shocking than bland, thats where her fans are divided, the shock factor.. ^^

My ranking for 2005 so far..

1. A+ Alterna
2. A+ STEP you
3. A+ Bold And Delicious
4. A Will
5. A Heaven
6. A Pride
7. A Fairyland
8. A- Is This Love

I'm with //hikari. Unfortunately, I think B&D will sell well. People as a mass have bad taste.
