Yeah, but since they're calling these 'mini albums' and both Memorial address (sans the title track) and FIVE had one PV per track, it seems like they should have at least done it so that it feels like more bang for your buck. People would be more willing to swallow that they're minis anyway if there were more clips-per-release.

Also, I think they could've done Melody with a Days-type PV that people could have gone ga-ga over.

Assuming that was supposed to be funny or witty in the first place (which it wasn't), I do.

Anyway, regarding the sound of Wake me up... the arrangement of the guitar towards the end of the preview reminds me of taskebab's which is promising. Kind of funny that people thought it would be related to Are You Wake Up? for some reason.

Hmm I dunno about that. I don't really see Melody ever having a PV.

The problem imo is not that some songs have no PVs, but that ONE song does not have it. It bothered me so much back in Memorial address, kinda bothered me in LOVE and it seems the same will go for again...

On Sweet scar PV... You know what, this is not a bad thing at all, but I'm tired of watching a preview for a ayu PV and thinkin "At least it is pretty"

And Wake me up sounds amazing so far, it's like the evolution of taskebab HEEELLLL YEAAAAHHHHH

Haha, little (miss)understood there?


Seriously, these days have been good with the new information...
I only bad that I am not satisfied with this info only: me want so much more!
*sigh* Stay strong, don't lose that little amount of patience there Lu.


But I have high expectations now for Ivy, since we don't really know much about that song yet... Excitement is killing me at the moment!

Yeah, it's pretty weird to get new info every week! It feels like we're back in 2000/2001 or something.

I agree with this. If all the songs had PVs I don't think people would have fussed the way they did about the mini being a single in disguise.

i kinda like the simpleness of sweet scar...
but, I mean what we got now is what, 1:20... hopefully the song is around the 4 minute mark, so there is a ton left!

and it was 4minutes but then someone said it was remixes at the end and I
thought that it was an interlude.

so all in all it is a full song then.
I felt so slow.

Kind of annoyed at the Wake me up remix too...I really dislike dubstep...I love progressive trance where it builds up and the beat explodes...this just builds up and then I get...crap. UGH

Don't take everything so seriously.

I'm really excited for this mini, I've liked both the previews we've had so far, so I'm hoping the other songs are just as good. Sweet Scar is very typical, but it's really nice. Playing it safe is best sometimes. Wake me up sounds fun, I want the full version!

The Sweet Scar PV though... eh, I can't see it going anywhere. It's been a long time since I've liked an Ayu PV, and even then, there's not many I really like.

Honestly, her pvs are really boring now. There doesn't seem to be much of a vision to them. I think people get doubly disappointed because everyone knows that she is capable of better. I think the last pv I actually liked was brilliante. Since love songs, that is the only one that has stood out to me.

Music wise though, Again is head and shoulders above Love.
