The song has just like a totally genuinely innocent feeling to it, like it should be sung by some young virgin. But ayu is a fully developed woman now and you can hear that in her voice, which contrasts too sharply with this piece.
Anyway, is the PV about remarriage? I think the images of the first girl was the first wife? And it is about the gift of remarriage? |

^^ yes maybe she's glad she got rid of Mannie and married her current husband but they decided to change the wife in the video so it wouldn't be too obvious

This pretty much.
Both the song and the video do absolutely nothing for me :\ But I'm glad other people are enjoying it. |

Too bad the song is so forgettable, and the pv too monotone overall. |

omg, that ending piano is haunting
The pv is so beautiful...I just felt the emotion behind ayu's voice and I saw the glitter in her eyes. She really is happy these days. The dreamy white & blue background reminds me of Zutto/Last Minute/Walk covers. I love how everything starts to connect. Last edited by Surreal17; 16th March 2015 at 09:46 PM. |

I like the song, the video (all though I find it super cheesy) and I think Ayu looks great in it.
Her voice in this song isn't too good though.

So I decided that since the PV was uploaded to her YT channel, I might as well listen to this one song before I get the album in my hands and wow... that PV was very heartwarming. Simple, and definitely not flawless, but quite amazing still and I think I wouldn't have liked the song quite as much without it.
While I agree that her voice sounds weirdly different in the song, I don't agree that it's bad, hearing how it melded into the ballad to make it sound much less generic. In my opinion, one thing that makes many ballads sound generic is the fact that they "spill over" with emotions to such a point that the emotions start feeling overbearing rather than significant, but "The GIFT" definitely didn't suffer as much from that fate (once again, in my opinion). Ayu's vocals helped a lot a with that, and I'm feeling very optimistic about the sound of the rest of the album songs, including the ballads. As if I wasn't excited and anxious enough after reading people laud several songs already!

I didn't LOVE the song, but the video looks really nice and it complements it well.

I actually really like that song. It's so warm and cosy and she sounds absolutely beautiful. She sounds calm and safe, somehow. I dunno how to explain it.
The theme of the PV is a bit megh, but it's gorgeous. Though i did think that dress bottom was not the best thing lol other than that Ayu looks stunning, over all it's a well done piece

I really like this song. But my favorite wedding ballad is still virgin road.

Wow. I feel like this video aged Ayu quite a bit. She just feels old in it. Again, the video seems characterized by the lack of action in her videos over the last 5 years. The video fits the song, but it's just hard to watch and feel excited about a video that consists of two or three shots of Ayu in the same outfit.
This is the full version of the song too, right? I think it could've been 55 seconds shorter and may have felt more special. It's the same thing with curtain call. If curtain call was only like 3 minutes, I'd probably be more entertained by it, but the extra 44 seconds makes it seem like it just drags on and on after the point was made. EDIT: I also feel like I missed the point of this video in contrast to videos similar to it. Like, I got the point of crossroad's PV but could never sit through MOON's PV. I hate to say it, but I do somewhat miss the PVs from Party Queen right now. At least NaNaNa was fun to watch. Last edited by orbitalaspect; 16th March 2015 at 10:32 PM. |

The PV looks really pretty - can't wait to watch it when I get my copy of the album.

Ayu looks beautiful but her position on the piano looks awkward. She should have sat with her legs over the edge without resting on her arm? Nicely shot though
Something about the song reminds me of HEAVEN and Ayu's vocals sounds good |
