I'm writing this as I first listen to the album, and, if this song sets the standard for the other album tracks, I may just wet myself.

I love this song. So much. I thought of evolution as well, and that's my favorite song.

It's like an angry evolution. Works for me!

although it's not my favourite, it is very powerful and again, this is going to be a song that would be great live^^ maybe she'll do a little medley between this and evolution (ie SURREAL-evolution-SURREAL in AT04) evolution-until that Day...-evolution or vice versa, although I don't know how that would sound like...

(typing as I'm listening to until that Day ... on FIRST LISTEN)

Weird blooby and electronic sounds at the start but I really like the consistent beats that come afterwards. Oh my, ROBOTIC sounding Ayu! Yeah! I like it! Wow, there's the acoustic guitars and then it morphs into this whole techno sounding thingy. I reckon I hear some bird chirping in the background.

Ayu seems to be playing with structure this time round! Oh my, the chorus is on now and it's REALLY fast! Yeah! LOVE IT! Sounds like a remix! Ooo ... those good old remix days. EXPLOSIVE chorus.

Yeah, those acoustic guitars are back again on the bridge! It's nicely fused together! She better perform this song for AT07! It's amazing!

And the ending is truly unique! I like how Ayu's voice bursts out in the end as the ending note. Superb!

Am I the only one that thinks this song is bland and monotone?

This is nothing like evolution. =/

Let's just say my only complaint is that I can't sing along to the chorus, and I like songs that I can easily sing along to.

It's very retro, it's badass. Minor complaint is that it seemed just lower in volume to me than the rest of the album, it's not a really good headphone-iPod song, I guess. More like a cruising down the highway jam song. I don't know.

LOL maybe that was also your complaint with "evolution" and "About You"? I like those, they're like a harder level to those who want to learn how to sing these songs. once you sing along to them several times you actually end up learning how to do it quickly and you can then nail it alright!

I love this song, even though the song is a bit empty since it's filled with instrumentals and the "ooooooooooh lalalal" than her actually singing.

Well, you must remember:

"This song was an interlude but I wanted to make it into a full song!"

I think the fact that the song used to be an interlude made it just so much better. I love songs from her that includes late arriving chorus, because it gives time to build up tension and atmosphere, for ie M and Free & Easy.

I do have one say in this song though. Is it me, or does ayumi's voice sound just a little choppy in this song? Don't get me wrong, I love the use of her new singing technique, as well as how powerful her vocal is during the chorus, but I think the verses sounded a little rushed (I guess its the lack of vibrato and her fading out technique). Just how I hear it.

Maybe she should do an album where they base full songs off of instrumentals. Her instrumentals have awesome structure.

I love this song too along with just 2 other new songs in the album. All the other new material is just recycled fluff.

I was a bit suprised how long it took to get to the chorus in this song, especially since I had been reading about how fast the lyrics were in the song. So I was all like, ok, where is the fast lyrics? It really did take a long time for that chorus to come up. But now I love it that way because it's something different and I like that she played with the structure a bit because I do think a lot of her songs start to get boring simply because she uses almost the same structure for most of her songs.

I just want to say exactly.

So...

exactly.

It really is different, the delayed chorus is something we don't see much of by Ayu.

A new day has come, and I'm just as much in love with this album, if not more.

The preview of this song was only "OK" to me. Not that promising.

But then I heard the full song...

I love this song! My favourite song at the moment.
Rock and dance music in one song. Perfect. And the "playing with the structure" -thing was a good choice.

At first I was dissapointed, but then the chorus came and it was shockingly good. So the starting parts served as very good build up. Overall, a really great song! I love the structure.

Yeah, I had the little of the same feeling. Especially after having listened to the preview which I loved, and then the song was so different.

But after hearing all of it you change your mind .

One of the best tracks. Very original, powerful and rockish.
