"Song 4 u" - Tales of Xillia 2 theme song revealed at TGS2012!
It's a speedy rock number with strings! Just as they said... there's quite a bit of a 'wow yeah' moment in the song, I think.

The excitement... agh!! I CAN'T HANDLE IT. IT'S AMAAZING!!!! It's a very classic sounding song imo.

A shame about the title though. Very... odd choice for Ayu.



Composers
Spoiler:
作詞/Lyricist:ayumi hamasaki
作曲/Composition:HINATAspring/Yuta Nakano
*not confirmed, but highly likely since they have downloads available


It appears that the song was a collaboration with Yuta and one of Do As Infinity's composers.


Lyrics so far
Spoiler:
Quote:
今だってそんなに自信はないよ

踏み出せない時もあるよ
もし間違っていたり
くり返しちゃったりしたら
どうしようって

選ばないだけなら
不安はないね
だけど変わることもないよね

いつからだどうなった
もう駄目だと全て
おしまいだってなってた
Uh~あの時

なんだったああ誰だった
そうなんでも
なんとかもう一度って思って
進めたのは

to u Yeah～ Yea　Yea　Ye　Yeaｈ～（×２）

信じてる
信じられてる

4～u Yeah～Yea　Yea　Ye　Yeaｈ～（×２）

空だってそう飛べる気がする

ただ1人君の為なら・・・
Some transcribed lyrics. May not be correct.

Actually, even now, I'm not that confident

I sometimes can't step forward
Thinking, "what to do,
If I make mistakes?
If I repeat myself?"

If you don't choose
You won't feel anxiety
But nothing will change either, right?

Translation of the first three stanzas by tenshi no hane.

An actually well-received Ayumi song in her fanbase? D: So it's either the best thing ever or generic as hell xD

I'm such a sucker for these typical Anime opening/ending songs, i wish Ayu did them more often cause she rocks the hell out of them tbh. This is exactly the type of song she needs to do right now and what i wanted from her. I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW

The title is alright, kind of cheesy but cute nonetheless.

The cutesy song title doesn't exactly fit with how the song itself sounds, and that's good. Would rather have a great sounding song with a crappy title than vice versa~ Can't wait to hear the song in full. Love epic-sounding rock tracks with a great beat. <3

thanks for the link.
Not really caring for the song from this preview, but I think it has potential!
I hope I like the full version.

My reaction really. I didn't hear ANYTHING special in the preview, really, really disappointing after Party Queen. But Ayumi is known for surprises, who knows what will come up in the second half of the song.
