I LOVE the front part of Face my fears but the chorus is atrocious...destroyed a potentially good song

[Gustavopc]

I don't think the featuring is bad, but the drop part sound too dated Some years ago I'd be screaming all over tumblr cause of that lol I hope I get used to it

Sad that I absolutely loathe this song :-(

So I was listening to Chikai today and I think I'm hearing things. During the outro when she sings "Kiss me once, kiss me twice" is she singing the English lyrics of Don't Think Twice "if you want to take it to an even higher level/All you gotta do is say the word, you know I'll follow/If you wanna take it to an even higher level" in the background. I originally thought she was singing the Japanese bridge.

Yeah, I was noticing the same thing. I've tried to identify what she was singing when Chikai was released and assumed it was the japanese bridge. There's and moment during Chikai she sings the "I don't bite" thing and I just noticed now.

Oh, for people who don't know, Chikai is also available at streaming services.

That's so cool. Where in Chikai are you hearing the "I don't bite" part?

After 4:04, "I don't, I don't bite", just before the "hi no noboru oto wo..." part. I just identified it was "bite" now, because of "Don't Think Twice" haha
