crossroad is much better than I thought. The verse is really good... and I dunno why but the chorus part triggers me to think of something like "wishing upon the star in the pale blue sky".. The feeling is quite magical.

Because people thing that preview is enough to say the song is good or bad.
It's why I never say my view before to listen to it in HQ.

I love crossroad. The arrangement is really beautiful.

^ Yeah, I appreciated the vocals much more than the actual song. I keep paying attention to that alone and forgetting what the song sounds like.

Haha yes!! The only thing I recall now every time is how wonderful she sounds.. Of course the verses are the most beautiful part of the song for me. I also LOVE the buildup of the song. I wished it didn't end so abruptly...and that guitar bridge is reallly 90s lol.

I have to say I had a lot in crossroad, but I love the short mv. I'm amazed they salvaged the song because after hearing the chakuuta and preview, it wasn't looking so fantastic. The mv was pretty cool besides the fact ayu's staring at lit matches literally the whole time, an older version of ayu from the "M" and "never ever" days was singing on the television in the background, nostalgic.

Her performance at MSta is the only one I listen to over and over as audio rip. Maybe it's because that I don't want to ruin full audio version listening to it in not that high quality, but they were really pretty solid vocals here. I'm soooo proud of her. I've never enjoyed her live voice that much until now!

Wow...so L releases in 18 days and we still have no info. I KNOW this has never happened before...I thought I'd wake up today and it'd be there for sure.

How the hell do they expect to promote it?

not even giving us the tracklist by now is so rude lol. some people might want to like.. preorder the version they want but they can't tell which one because the full tracklist isn't out. it's kinda annoying.

What I've understood, they're not really promoting it because they expect it to go along with the success of Crossroad.

Or something.

I really want some info, though!
