Peco usually does the lower note harmonies, and Princess does the higher note harmonies. In the vocalization at the end of the song, there are more lower notes than there are high, hence the extended Peco time.

As for favorites, I don't really know. I think Peco has been with Ayu longer (before being a backup singer, she was involved in the choreography and costume design).
Yeah, except since they used the album recorded version of "decision," all of the backing vocals are done by Ayu and not Peco or Princess, so them acting like they're singing the backing vocals when it's all Ayu that you hear, seems kinda silly.

i loved it.

Princess made it cool, because, as far as I saw, she totally neglected PECO.

Yeah, that kind of confused me too considering Peco and Princess only back her up in actual live concerts, and this is just a recording O_o

I thought it was a really cool and a wonderfully shot PV! There are lots of really nice close-ups of Ayu, for example:

Pretty boring compared to the "talkin' 2 myself" PV but I did like the lighting. Otherwise, nothing to write home about.

i like the quality of it. i like the lights and ayu looks good. the only thing i hate is those two freakin background singers!!!!! jeeeeeeeeeezz, i swear i'd slap them any day, for always overreacting in their performances, n now in the video. God, show me love.

i dislike it cos its rather plain. we have seen this kind of performance before. i jus dont really like it when they focus on something that is not ayu.. Luckily they had the lightings and all to make the PV looks nicer.

otherwise i feel that its jus as bad as talkin' 2 myself. oh both are plain.

I still say it's better than talkin' 2 myself. Her dancers are just starting to become a pain in the neck. It's much better seeing her band.

Ok, I have to admit it's kind of boring with only one shot. It's only more interesting because the scenes and angles keep changing within 2-3 seconds. Someone please fire Tetsuo Inoue as a director for Ayu's PVs. I wonder what's wrong with his concept.

I think Humming 7/4 was way better, despite utilizing basically the same concept, they added just a 'few' details (audience, dancers and the cage), making a lot more visually interesting. I wish Decision PV was a bit more like Humming 7/4, or evolution PV.

watched and heard the song ....

hmm.... ayu's hairstyle reminds me of rich old woman? :?



the song is ok...nothing outstanding or special, typical rock-song from ayu just like glitter is typical summer-song...

decision's PV is nor great, nor bad; it's okay I guess.
I mean, Ayu is awesome and all, but it really lacks of creativity... :/

The PV was pretty boring. XD Not as bad as I thought it would be, but still boring. I liked the camera angles and shots of her eyes. Especially the bit where they showed the "A" on Enrique's bass guitar for a split second. XD

It's a pity really, a song like this had potential to have a PV like Because of You. :/
