^ lol yeah. It's just so pointless imo. It reminds me of when Secret showed up on Ayu's glitter/fated single when it was just on the previous album..so pointless. Oh well, I hope the new songs are good at least and I look forward to hearing them!

Well ... you can look at it either way :

1) OMG they added OLD songs? How stupid do they think we are? Those should've been a total of 7 new songs!

2) Wow, we get 4 new songs, plus, as a bonus, 3 old songs, which is nice for the fans who hadn't bought her first album yet!

I prefer to look at it the second way, even if it is sometimes most likely the first one. XD

EDIT :

I see people complaining it's a single? It has FOUR new songs. How is that a single? Sounds like a mini-album to me.

^ i actually own many singles with four songs on them (all from japan) so that is why people are saying it's just a single. mini-albums usually have 6 or 7 or more *new* tracks.

they should have just made this a single with the four new songs but oh well, i guess anything extra is an added bonus!

Well, I know Japan is sometimes a bit odd when it comes to naming, but in the general case, something with 4 new songs or more is considered a mini-album.
Most of those "singles" with 4 songs are counted as a mini-album by Oricon for a reason ; P

But I guess in the end it doesn't really matter. We get 4 new songs, which is good news in itself XD

Wow, EXILE releases eight brand new original songs as a "maxi single" while four new songs for ICONIQ make it a "mini-album."

You're supposed to make people re-buy songs for your stupid best albums, Avex! And then on top of that only a few months later... @@; Hopefully it isn't exactly like this and they'll make changes to it, but right now it looks pretty stinkin' stupid.

Well, the EXILE one was still called an album by Oricon and the RIAJ. It's only EXILE that insisted on calling it a maxi-single and we all know that's because of all the crack they've been doing : P

Anyway, I'm pretty curious about the new songs. I can't wait to see if there'll be any in a new style for her.

Lol, what's the deal with all these vague new releases that get changed completely, are pushed back or just disappear? We want some clarity dammit! XD

As far as we can tell, yes, but for all we know it might just disappear like that XD.
