Thoughts on NEXT LEVEL (FX40 CM Version) - Page 3

I really like NEXT LEVEL, it sounds very nice and peaceful...

Waiting for the entire album to come!

Only listened to it a few times, but yeah it's completely different from what I expected. From the title alone I thought it would be rock or dance. Something fast and powerful.
But "NEXT LEVEL" sounds indeed very peaceful. A nice mid-tempo pop song. I get a bittersweet vibe from it (similar to "MY ALL").

At first I was quite surprised, but now I'm looking forward to the full version. Specially the lyrics. ^^

It's simple, nothing special, but sounds smooth and relaxing, it depends on the whole song, of cuz. If Next Level is not a techno album, it better be as diversified as I am... or (miss)understood. Anyway, I'm buying it.

NEXT LEVEL reminds me about Life......both released in spring, and they're much softer compared with other hard rock songs

I find the song pretty cute! ^^

The CM version sounds a bit like Ayu's usual pop songs, it's not really interesting. I think I'll wait and see what the full version is like.

I hate the preview... Hope the full song will be better =D

Yeah.. its quite underwhelming for me as well. I hope that the full version will fire up my mood.

We do have hopes for that, because Sparkle was quite mellow in the cm, but the full version shines

I like it, it sounds relaxing and cheerfull

PoetGirl · #50 20th February 2009, 09:57 AM

i love it

Alien · #51 20th February 2009, 10:19 AM

the only i dislike is the title
wth ayu used such two hidebound letters to name a pretty, refreshing and a little bit cheerful song like that?!

i was just thinking that NEXT LEVEL should be used as a concept but a exact song.

TofuBunny · #52 20th February 2009, 10:48 AM

its wonderful ! the title gives the feeling that the song might be techno or rock
and like someone mentioned, most of the title tracks weren't cheerful
it gives me such a spring like feeling ~

Rocky Raven · #53 20th February 2009, 12:17 PM

The song is nice n sweet in team of Usual Pop Song!
It's really nothing NEXT LEVEL to me =_=

Aga-chan · #54 20th February 2009, 12:37 PM

From the chorus part translated by maikaru it seems like ayu has forgiven her past. She doesn't ask herself if she will forgive or if she will be forgiven anymore, yet she states that the scar from the past has become dear to her. Maybe she feels that she can finally move on now, so she titled the song as "NEXT LEVEL".

Neferet · #55 20th February 2009, 12:49 PM

I like it! As many people said I was expecting rock or trance sounds (or a song similar to sparkle), but this is totally refreshing, relaxing, and brings a spring feel! I want to hear more of it!

i think you're right!!
next level is not about music but her life??
it's gonna be very interesting to listen to this album

Mari-chan · #57 20th February 2009, 01:37 PM

The part I heard.. I really like.
I hope, the rest of the song also sounds good.
I prefer such songs that Rock-Songs. (^.^) So.. I think, I will love it.

Kirshwasser · #58 20th February 2009, 02:27 PM
