Okay.

So, I lost to myself. I downloaded the preview. T_T Damn temptations! D:

I love how she sings it! I'm sure I've heard of the melody somewhere, but I think it's the "generic" tone of it that caught my attention, much like "It Was" from Secret. And I like it for that. And besides, Ayu's been making a lot of rock songs recently, and now that she finally released a sweet-sounding, mid-tempo ballad, I'm really happy for that!

But, now that I know it's a ballad, I'm getting more confused about the PV. Won't this be the sort of song that Ayu would just stand in the middle of the stage and sing to? God, when are the PVs going to be released?

There is going to be a bridge in Days (due to the parts download on musico).
So happy!! I can't wait to hear the full version, must be so pretty...

Days is an extreme disappointment for me. It holds no emotion. It feels like its just...there.

I'm with you on this.

I don't know, it sounds all too MIDI to me. And the lack of emotion is definitely prevalent from the preview.

I think the lack of emotion in the preview is at least partially due to the quality. After all, ringtones themselves aren't exactly the highest quality, and then put that low quality through a microphone?

Same here. Sounds too generic. But I may change my opinion 'bout it, 'cause when I first hear Kuu's stay with me preview I also hated it. lol But now I love it. Even ordered both versions of the single.
So I hope full version will be so much better. Still this type of song doesn't fit Ayu at all. IMO
Still GREEN is just amazing!!

Didn't like it too much. It sounds so bland and generic. I really disliked CAROLS too, and it reminds me of that one.

I really just do not get how this reminds people of Carols. I mean, out of all songs. Lol. I HATED Carols. It was so pathetic for a "winter" ballad. It had none of the x'masy/wintery/cheery effects that this one seems to have. Lol. I say this because Carols is like, exactly the type of winter ballad I don't like and Days is the one I have been praying and hoping for since as long as I can remember. I just can't connect the two. Lol.

^Seriously, I don't get people here at all

They only heard some seconds that are recorded through a microphone from a ringtone and they decided they know how the thing sounds (and whole song too) and they hate it =P
I think that many will change their opinions after hearing the full song in a high quality.

C'mon stop it ^^'

We wait the full song, and we finally judge it.
But It's hard to change my mind, Days sounds really awful

I don't have really any opinion about the song yet, but I must say to people who judge the people who dislike the preview, if someone shouldn't decide to not to like the song by the preview I don't think anyone should say they love it either. I think this topic was created a bit too early..

Sorry dude! I am bad in english..
I wanted to say that I am surprised that people can have a comment for the song when they only heard the chorus.. Maybe the chorus is indeed bad / good, but we don't know how the real song is..., so I was surprised (I repeat) that people can have a comment for the song, when they only heard a little part of it..
Sorry for my english, I have to practise more -_-'

Aww, this sounds like a bittersweet song to me. I like what I'm hearing even though it's just a preview. I like her voice in it, like some of you have mentioned, it's got that "It Was" feel to it, and I absolutely love that song.

I'm really looking forward to the full version now

Sometimes the song you hate the most becomes your favorite song of all time...

I'm finding love in many Ayu songs I HATED before and now love. But it wasn't based on a 45 second low quality ringtone xD;... I think we have to wait for the full version at least!

If the full version is ANYTHING like the preview, I am going to be so satisfied with this single. <3

i thought he was agreeing with luna?

anyway...I can totally see why people don't like this.

And I can totally see them not liking it when the song comes out too.

Honestly, it really depends how Ayu goes about this...and for me, there's two ways.

One way, it will be totally awesome and powerful, and then the other way...it'll be a total boring flop.

I'm really banking on the first, or at least hoping for it...I doubt it'll come out somewhere in the middle...People's opinions never take the middle road anyway lol.

Yay I'm glad too! bridges can be so powerful and wonderful....

I also can't see how people think this song is like carols... I don't think this song sounds anything like it (so far) and I really disliked carols...
still looking forward to the full version!
