Yeah that should have been the cover instead, they should redeem themselves by making it a poster.

I'm all with everyone else!! The promo pic is MUCH BETTER than the cover!!

Also I think the cover more represents the B-Side "Beautiful" than "Big Boys Cry".... Shouldn't a cover really better represent the A-Side more?... Just my personal thoughts.

Also found the link in there for BBC, but it wont load the video. Says something in Chinese, and have no clue what it says or wants me to do....

Big Boys Cry is damn weird, it's like a cutesy version of Beyoncé's Run The World (as some have already mentioned) but i love it!
This is so unexpected for a single release wow, kind of risky actually. I have no idea how this will chart!

It's a double A-side.

OK, honestly at this point, I can say I don't really care for BBC... I can see it being one of my least liked tracks on her next album.

@Benikari47 Yeah, but don't the Japanese love cutesy? There's SO many cutesy songs in Japan that top rank on the charts.

The song is so strange but in a great way. I really enjoy what I'm hearing. But lol that "oh **** baby" line caught me off guard. At least it sounds that she says that.

Iunno, I like it haha.

I think it's just really unique when compared to the stuff being released in Japan right now. (by popular artists, that is) In terms of the actual music? it's just not a sound I'm hearing right now, so it's interesting to me.

Yeah, it's an interesting sound. I wonder how it'll chart.

It's really catchy and although it's repetitive..I like it. I think I'll enjoy this single.

Weird but at the same time interesting.I've only listened once the full song so I haven't made a solid opinion about it.

OMG I love the promo picture! Too bad it didn't pass as a cover

I like the flute... and the song may be very repetitive, but it sounds so fresh!
Darn you Namie, I don't buy CD-only releases but this might make me... xD

(I think she said more like "Oh shoot, baby" instead of ****)
