Snowy kiss sounds really good! It doesn't sound like it goes with the pv... Haha

[macmaayu]

ewwww for the snowy kiss preview

[truehappiness]

Why do people hear electro in Wake me up? It seems more heavily 'pop rock' than anything.

Also, "UK composer" is not one of the song genres...

It's like...

- rock (aligns with Wake me up)
- uplifting sad track (aligns with Sweet scar)
- ballad with 'strong main voice' (???? snowy kiss ????)
- medium ballad (likely to be Ivy)

それぞれロックあり、切ないアップリフティング・トラックあり、メイン・ヴォ ーカル1 本で歌い上げるバラードあり、語りかけるようなミディアム・バラードあり

So it looks like all we have to hear now is the medium ballad which is Ivy.

^I agree with you ! this song has probably a few electronic arrangements but it's not like sparkle or ladies night !

Those descriptions seem pretty off. Wake me up doesn't sound that rockish judging from the CM. In fact snowy kiss sounds way more rockish.

It would be funny if the UK producer ends up being Bentley Jones...



It seems way too convenient to be a mare coincidence!

humm I don't think it's for ayu

Well, the descriptions tend to be a bit exaggerated. Missing was said to have a 'rock taste' which it does, but it's veeerrrryyy subtle.

Guess you're right. I was kinda hoping it would be him

I think the original LOVE announcement had Missing and Melody mixed up. Considering Melody does have a slight rock feel to it and it was supposed to originally have a music video...

snowy kiss sound NOTHING like ballad. her ballads are always BALLADS with big B in the front. /when they describe that is a ballad, it is nothing like snowy kiss /

If you just listened to 10-20 seconds of momentum's chorus, I don't think you could say it was a 'ballad' imo. We'll have to hear more. I think the verses may end up being more ballady, and if snowy kiss were not the 'ballad' of the album, then which one is?

They updated the description a few times and just moved Missing up. I think Melody was really originally supposed to have a PV before they changed their minds.

「Missing」は、数多くのヒット曲を生み出してきた原一博氏によるロックテイスト溢れる切ないミディアム・ナンバーで、胸に突き刺さる歌詞と張り裂けんばかりの歌声に心揺さぶられる、まさ にayuにしか表現できない究極のラブソング。「Melody」は、星野靖彦氏作曲によるミディアム・バラードで、耳に残るやさしいメロディと包み込むような歌声はまさにayuバラードの真骨頂。3曲ともayuの魅力 が存分に発揮された楽曲に仕上がっている。

[TeamAyu2004]

ah, nothing new...
Im sad now...

[JackieRos]

I'm going to like sweet scar pv.
It looks so beautiful.

[Foyuki]

sigh....
snowy kiss is sending mail style ....
nothing new....

[jyujiw]

The only thing that I liked from the section of PVs from all these releases so far is that they're now, with a great image quality.

[SURREAL__RAINBOW]

Can't wait!!!!

[Delicious n Bold]

I'm impressed so far!
Ivy is gonna be good as well!

[TeamAyu2004]

^ i hope so!
Everything sounds amazing right now...

[adantatu2]

snowy kiss sounds a bit like UNITE
I'm so confused, it sounds rock-ish

[happiholic★]

Well, if anything I'm now more hyped for this album. The titles, the sounds, the genres. I want to know how everything pans out.

[AYUCREA]

snowy kiss not a ballad...wow!!!!!
