I don't hear either song... It sounds like nothing like rule... But it could just be the speaker on my phone.

well it has the same kind of genre as sparkle, obviously it's not sparkle nr2 -_-" and her vocals remind me of rule , not the song itself.

so...again... peeps, when do we usuallly get the info on te mag apparences?

I like Wake me up (well, the preview is promising). It sounds a bit like Rule.
And Sweet scar is good, i thought it was boring, but now is growing on me

"Sweet scar" has something that keeps reminding me of "Far away", in particular the beginning of the chorus does.

I'm really shocked how promising things're turning out to be... I loved "LOVE", now I'm going again to adore "again"... Ayu, dear to my heart, is here.

a rock song = Wake me up
a sad but uplifting track = Sweet scar (is this right?..havent heard it)

a ballad sang with a "big voice" = snowy kiss?
a medium ballad that'll speak to the listener = Ivy?

honestly was expecting Ivy to be the darker and more haunting song..but since there's Sweet scar, I wonder how interesting Ivy will be..I love the title so much. but seeing how it has no PV and its midtempo could mean it being kinda toned down (not saying thats a bad thing..since I love Melody)

I don't really "hear" rock in Wake me up CM. It's more Startin'/dance-electro song feeling than anything rocky.

And don't compare it to Sparkle, please. It's nothing like Sparkle.

I really like she did something fast at least, buuuuut the chaotic melody disturbs me.
But it may change after full track ;d maybe Wake me up is "sad but uplifting" track? I don't know japanese so I can't judge by the lyrics. It might be just one of these lyrics like "Wide Awake" by Katy Perry (waking up after some sort of mistakes you've made or problems you've been through and still going forward = sad but still uplifting melody and lyrics) Her "dance/electro" tracks sometimes have really bitter lyrics (like (Don't)Leave me alone etc.)

the more I hear the preview, the more I like it! but I think we have still 2 ballads left lol. This can be "a rock song". It just can be descibed like in the tracklist. (I mean, the order of tracklist)

I still hoping for more mini albums and more tracks like Wake me up! I should do a bagde for my siggy... "NO MORE BALLADS" lol.
