^ I'm sorry that you had a bad day. But its just funny that you want to limit the Namie this and that, but then kind of contributed to it. I hope you have a better day tomorrow!

I just wanted to say that people started bringing her up a lot during the past few weeks, that's all (I really have nothing against her). Thanks~I sure hope I will.

Since when did Ayu singing loudly = screaming? The chorus of You were... doesn't sound like Ayu yelling B&G in concert at all, you know, haha.

I actually think the ending vibrato is better than her usual ending vibratos lol, if you get what I mean. She's not doing it as harshly as usual, which I find refreshing. I love the HQ version, and I cannot wait to hear it in full. The PV is going to be great, I just know it!

LOVE the HQ version! <3 !! it sounds so emotional!! *tears*

Ayu_Ready · #**325** 26th November 2009, 08:52 PM

Gorgeous ! can't wait for the clip ><

Maemi · #**326** 26th November 2009, 09:04 PM

After listening to it after a couple of times... I really like it. The refren is very nice, and when I heard it for the first time I wasn't impressed at all and I even thought that I might not like it. Even though this isn't the whole HQ song, it's enough for me to judge it.

The only and weird I don't like - Ayu's voice. To me seems like she's straining and it's frustrating. The music is very beautiful, even though it's nothing new from her discography.

agashi · #**327** 26th November 2009, 09:15 PM

now i can say... I LOVE IT!!! ...is she screaming in her song??

Crystal_Ageha · #**328** 26th November 2009, 09:27 PM

She's not screaming.

I actually really like her vocals here! I like the song much more now that I can hear it clearly. ^.^ The chorus has grown on me extremely--I love it!!

Verses still need a little more time on me, though. Overall, yeah, it is her best ballade in a while, but I still don't think it can touch Dearest.

Yes, it's quite the universal question, isn't it?

It actually sounded better to me in LQ than HQ... I just couldn't get any emotion from the song, it has become a bit flat to me. But then again, I'm not feeling too well right now so my opinion may change when I feel better.
And c'mon guys, this is AHS! The forum where we go off-topic, discuss and argue constantly, I don't complain over getting different people's views all the time despite them being different from mine. I actually like that about this forum, it always keeps things so interesting (as long as it doesn't go out of line, of course)

I hope I'll wake up to a full song leak of the song(s) tomorrow. Wishful thinking, but tomorrow's such a good day, I'm free from school then!

beautiful ballad atm

JackieRos · #**331** 26th November 2009, 10:42 PM

screaming you say?

i think is because shes so emotional in this song

adantatu2 · #**332** 26th November 2009, 10:45 PM

ayu is back

ugh yes I dread to see her do that live

I like this so much more than Days (not nearly as good as Together When... though

), it is pretty generic but at least it's not horrible.

hidekirby · #**334** 27th November 2009, 12:41 AM

Thank you so much Luna !
Better in HQ, I'll definitely love it ! Better than Curtain call and Days (I'm not a fan of them). The song in itself is not really original, but it certainly has its own feeling. I'm looking forward to listening to the full song !

Picaflor 7/4 · #**335** 27th November 2009, 12:53 AM

Normally I'd be all over a new leak, but I feel like waiting for the full single to come out before seeing/hearing anything. thanks for the rip though.

Max_ZZZ · #**336** 27th November 2009, 01:10 AM

IN HQ IT'S SICK
but ya her voice... i feel like her tone doesn't need to be that low sometimes

ハート〜ブレーカ♥ · #**337** 27th November 2009, 01:33 AM

It sounds a tad... uhm... boring...

It doesn't seem like something new, the way she did Sparkle and RULE..

Crystal_Ageha · #**338** 27th November 2009, 01:35 AM

It's hard to do something too new with a ballade, though. Especially just a regular winter pop ballade. :\ Ballades are just kinda boring in general, lol.

nanakopy87 · #**339** 27th November 2009, 01:40 AM

this isn't the complete song right?some part is like being cut off.
But the song is ok.sad song.but the chorus melody there is repeated for at least 3 times.which makes it quite boring,IMO.
but overall is a nice song

TITANIC · #**340** 27th November 2009, 01:44 AM

after hearing You were... few times. im getting bored with that. I expected Epic ballad like Dearest HEAVEN or forgiveness.
this is kind of NWTS rock ballad. but 1 thing I like is her voice getting better and better.
this song is hard to sing
