even though i do agree, i think it was kind of unnecessary to bring Namie up. it could make this thread go in a whole other direction that i do not want to see it go, lol

I'm so happy to have this more HQ version of the rip! It sounds beautiful. <3 I can listen to it on repeat now without hurting my ears. xD

Time to learn the lyrics! haha

Love this song!

The only peeve I have with it is the wasuretakunaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiIIiii at the end, haha.

Since when did Ayu singing loudly = screaming? The chorus of You were... doesn't sound like Ayu yelling B&G in concert at all, you know, haha.

I actually think the ending vibrato is better than her usual ending vibratos lol, if you get what I mean. She's not doing it as harshly as usual, which I find refreshing. I love the HQ version, and I cannot wait to hear it in full. The PV is going to be great, I just know it!

ugh yes I dread to see her do that live


I like this so much more than Days (not nearly as good as Together When... though ), it is pretty generic but at least it's not horrible.

I love this song so much already... the chorus is just amazingly strong and powerful but really bittersweet and sad at the same time. Her vocals are stunning, and the melody is really beautiful. And yeah, I love the rockish arrangement really too This is one of those songs that just screams Ayu, in a positive way.

^ No you didn't first bring her up, but you certainly did all those other things and even in this post, you continued to do so. And I'm just saying there is no reason for it at all. You say you dislike comparing the two, but you are the one comparing the two...

And I never said the whole world has to love a song, nor was I even replying to you in that post.

Did you have a bad day or something?

Kinda wanted to ask the same but yeah, it was pretty bad. I wasn't trying to have a go at you, just said how I felt atm, as lately we had a lot of Namie this and Namie that all over AHS and to be honest I have a slight problem with that

^ I'm sorry that you had a bad day. But its just funny that you want to limit the Namie this and that, but then kind of contributed to it. I hope you have a better day tomorrow!

I just wanted to say that people started bringing her up a lot during the past few weeks, that's all (I really have nothing against her). Thanks~I sure hope I will.
