I almost stopped watching, I hate ballads so much but
When she hit those high notes I got goose pumps.
Such a beautiful pv.

And JJ Lin when you get married you're supposed to kiss the bride but
I thought that the head kiss was cuuuuute.

I mean she's 36 but she doesn't look old at all. She looked gorgeous.

It's nice.

I think the editing is really good, everything is crisp. I have my reservations about some things, but really it's a pretty video.

I think the song is pretty too, I'm excited to see it live! Hopefully some fantastic wedding dress flanked by another wedding dress song lol.

After the Colours PV mess this is sooo refreshing and it please my eyes. It's still pretty boring since it lacks some action, but whatever. There's still Virgin Road's PV for that lol.

I feel the same .
The song it's so warm and calm, also really innocent. Maybe people would hate me for this, but I kinda feel the same when I'm listening to JEWEL. Not like The GIFT would ever beat JEWEL as one of my ever favorites Ayu ballads, but I like it even more now after listening to the full version.

I like it a lot, more than HEAVEN, which I didn't like because I found it boring. >.>

I loved the PV. It's relaxing and beautiful.
I am a bit disappointed, though, that the we practically got to hear the whole song in the beginning when we got the preview... I thought there'd be more to it than the preview. I'm probably gonna cut the piano intro/outro when I get the song hahaha

^^ It does have a slight resemblance to JEWEL, kind of a 'safe' feeling. I wasn't sure what the PV was about, but the remarriage thing makes sense. The bit where she's singing on top of the piano did make me chuckle, it seems so out of place lol I also thought the song would be longer, since the preview practically gave it all away, but any longer than that and it might have dragged.

I'm really love this pv and the song is so emotional and that's is the feeling of the bride in her weeding, the most happiness day.

and yes the song, the melody is like the gift from the sky.

So where is the duet version where JJ's vocals are added in? He's already mouthing the words in the PV, so... XD

I love the beginning and ending piano parts. I wish that there was a piano solo of an extended/elaborated version of the melody in the middle of the song instead of just rehashing the intro part at the end.

Simple and beautiful song. Simple and beautiful PV. Forgettable? Probably. But I love the intro/outro piano part.
