It makes me wonder if she has produced other material?
If so, I hope that it is similar to this.

I hope that Ayu includes this song with her next album.

It's definitely not just her own harmony, it's not the correct notes for that. I'm hoping it's a production flaw since Ayumi sometimes has subpar producers that **** up her mixes. Not gonna judge the entire song from a low quality preview of course It was just...quite shocking to hear a) a song that quite disappointed me(again, based on 90 secs, who knows what will come afterwards?) and b) doublevocaling reminiscent of her old studio recordings.

I cant tell whatever technique they used for her voice but it sounds good to me and that's all that matters. She might probably shout the YEA YEA YEA parts live though..
Yeah, the 'ye-ee-yeah' is probably gonna get shouted but that's kind of how it's supposed to be sung from what I hear... the same with the 'woah woah yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah' in progress.

It's not as rockish as I expected it to be. It sounds like an older Ayu song, something that would appear on "LOVEppears" or "Duty". I do like it, it's not what I expected (I expected a more "progress"-y song). I am excited for the full version

Well, the only thing that they mentioned regarding progress was that it lives up to it and in the same way that progress did, fits the world view of this game. I'm really excited to hear the full version!

It seems like a calmer song chorus-wise... that is if what we're hearing is the chorus.

It sounds like a Nana Mizuki song with a bit of ayu's unique style

Thanks for posting the trailer!!!

I really feel like I understand the title "Song 4 u" more now after watching it. And Ayu's voice seems to match the emotional aspects of the game. I kinda grew to like it a bit more after watching that!

I thought she weren't able to make another epic song for ToX as progress. I was so wrong!
Song 4 u reminds me a mix of LOVEppears and RAINBOW eras, that is perfect for me (love both albums).
Her voice is also so clear and good so far. I really hope to don't be disappointed by the full version, because I love it

So much that I don't care about the title lol.

WOW! the animators really out did themselves this time around!!
I'm still a little 'blah' about the song... I really want to hear it without all the talking and what not.

But I think Im gonna be happy with it over all.
