I'm hoping that CREA will make a return on this album, though that's kinda useless to hope for. :/ For the album cover I'd have ayu all diva-ish .

So, is it safe to say that Timmy wasn't an Ayu fan previous to working with her?

That's more often the arrangement than the vocals themselves. Mariah Carey and Celine Dion are overpowered by their instrumentals all the time.
Ayumi sings the melody well, the instrumental is just so full and loud it overpowers her for a moment there.

this happens so many times in Celine songs and I have to tell you she does not have a weak voice!

That was my whole point? Celine and Mariah are amazing vocalists, yet they are so often overpowered by their arrangements.

@Heavenly
I don't like the choice of font but it's a lot better than the other fan-edited cover in this thread.

My thoughts on the song have changed. I liked it at first but now it reminds me of meaning of Love.

I find this interesting cause Ive been listenimg to more french stuff, and they seem to favor lower, more soothing, sensual, and sometimes even husky, vocals.

Well studio wise I absolutely love her vocals tbh imo. I mean like the whole FIVE album; all her vocals were great on it INCLUDING progress imo. When she's performing LIVE she almost always sounds bad imo (I'm talking about CDL 10-11 and CDL 11-12, she sounded great imo @7 days and the recent progress performance on tv imo). imo imo imo imo. I don't want to hear any theory about how her vocals are super awesome right now, and that I might be deaf or stupid or retarded or whatever because I don't think she sounds awesome, hence the imo's. Oh this is off-topic, I realize.... :/

Im not understadning it.. I think she is sing quite well in the song and hitting all the notes just fine... the music tends to get a little loud and she isn't trying to over power the music, which is a good thing...

If you ask me, Timmy is a little obsessed with chanting... hope he doesn't over use it.

Have you seen her UNEDITED live performances between 2006 and 2010? They were MUCH worse when it came to hitting notes as high. She wasn't far off for HBYA most of the time, while the notes are amongst the highest in her reach. Her range stops at E5 nowadays(ever after her hearing loss) and HBYA scratches at that.
