New single MOON / blossom 7/14, 1st part of 3 single project [VII]

[chocopockymaster]

So it sounds like Yuichi Nagayama's head is the one we should be demanding on a silver platter, since he's responsible for the awful mixing on moL and Last Links...

Luja, can you put that booklet pic in a spoiler, please?

[amorphose]

I still haven't listened to the mic recording of blossom and it's killing me. xD I haven't listened to the avex preview either. I want to wait to hear until we have it in full and HQ.

I did listen to the avex previews for everything else though. Microphone (THE LOWBROWS remix) sounds like it's going to be really freaking awesome. It's exactly what I was hoping the remix would sound like. I love it. Don't look back (Reggae Disco Rockers remix) is a little bit weird, but I was expecting as much because of the word reggae. I think I'll probably like the full version, but I don't wanna make any quick judgements. Last Links (Orchestra Version) sounds really... gross. Her voice does not blend at all with the background music. I don't think I'm going to like it very much. >.< & finally meaning of Love (Acoustic Piano Version)... I like it much better than the original, but I didn't like the original at all. It's an extremely forgettable ballad. We'll see when the single comes out, but I'm not sure if this version is going to be much less forgettable.

Ah! & I love the booklet pictures! So gorgeous!!

I think the covers are fine. They look decent as covers. And ayu looks at the cameras.
I'm happy the blossom/moon cover was used instead of the booklet as I can't really see her eyes or anything

The booklet photos are lovely nevertheless and good for being booklet photos. Simpler and non-attention drawing and less colorful
But she still looks pretty in that way. Mmhmm....

I guess the covers wouldve been more generally liked without ayus huge eyes staring us down?


^____^

I think this is really a lovely single so far. Covers, songs, remixes, and just waiting for full pv

[LEOyumi]

Wow, the booklet is really nice!
But I actually think the covers are better. Anyway, love the art for this single! <3

ayuchina had a deal with avex. I believe some staff are able to get the cds early, but they aren't allow to post the songs/pvs before release date.

please understand. if they were to go against avex and post the leak, they will get into trouble and we might don't even get to see the booklet pics early.

I love the blossom preview from the official site! Sounds so nice!
Microphone remix sounds wicked and Last Links the arrangement is nice but yah vocals are weird XD Meaning of Love Piano version sounds so nice, and Don't Look Back sounds very video-gamey.
Can't wait for next week!

[truehappiness]

Are people ignoring the random percussion in the beginning of the Last Links (Orchestra Version) preview? There are also various bells. Violins are there of course, but there are also some brass instruments used as well, so it's not JUST violins it seems. (Though the other instruments are likely programmed.)

-flips table over-

[Picaflor 7/4]

nga! I'd rather just not have scans of the cds at all rather than see that someone has them. it just makes me want the single more. *strangles!* lol

-the microphone remix sounds weird! I don't like it, yet I find myself bobbing to it.
-I'm also not fond of the orchestra version of last links. I really really wish the took the beginning of the original song with the guitar and violins and just worked with that. just took out the drums and power, and substituted more violins and stuff. It would have sounded a lot better.
-The dlb remix sounds like STEP you (DJ TAKI-SIT More Step Up Remix) part 2. but I feel like it'll be an ok remix.
-the piano version of mol sounds pleasantly nice.

[primavera♥]

^^An orchestra is not just violins and strings. That would be horrid at times if it were, truehappiness

The preview is okay. I may love orchestra. But I don't like them all. it'll grow on me

[Mirrorcle Monster]

I need to hear more blossom before having an opinion

[Ayumiko]

Last link sounds really awkward...but I really like microphone and meaning of love previews. Don't look back remix sounds ok.

The booklet pics are pretty! Love her dress!

[joshohhhhh]

the dlb and microphone remixes sound awesome! i've never liked mol or last links... and these remixes are far from changing my opinion.

Holy crap Those booklet pics are GORGEOUS!!!!!!!! I feel so tempted to slip them in the case instead of the real covers (>o<) But I'd like the single either way~ The real covers are still beautiful... But the booklet pics are just a little more so...

[PoetGirl]
