すれ違う恋人達が 肩を寄せ合い歩いてく
冷たさが身を染みるのは 君が居ないから
季節さえ忘れる位 他に何もいらない位
そう夢中で輝いたのは 恋をしていたから

君が最後の人だと思ってた 君と最後の恋をしたかった
こんな広い夜空の下ひとり 一体何を思えばいいの

今 誰の隣で笑顔 …
ねぇ どれ程の時が経ったら 苦しみは終わるのから

いつか話してた夢の続きを いつも言っていたあの口癖も
全て忘れられたららくだね だけど一つも忘れたくない

…に包まれた 瞬間に…
優しくて暖か過ぎる 思ってた

I didn't feel the Together when... vibe there, and certainly not Dearest (never really liked any one of those two that much either). To me it sounds slightly generic, but with a really great chorus, and unlike anything she's ever done before. But as I said earlier, I really, really liked the preview I won't buy the single though, I'm too poor for that...maybe after christmas sometime...

I want the poster so bad. She's so amazingly beautiful in the picture.

It's much better than Dearest, I still don't get what everyone likes about that song lol.

Thanks for the uploads, I'll try not to spoil myself *_*
Hahahaha Yeah I had the same thought! Very end of a great movie kind of song.

I don't think this sounds like Together When... (what's with the hate?! xD; ), Days, nor No way to say. I can't wait for this single now! If for this song only!

The chorus is probably the only part of the song I remember, but it's excellent lol.

I don't think it sounds like any of those either, but people tend to lump songs together. Just like all her future summer songs will "sound like glitter, BLUE BIRD and fairyland" even none of those sound similar to each other. xD

thanks for the record.

anyway, i don't think You were... reminds me of any of ayu's winter ballad. it's just You were..., a brand new song.

i like the soft rock in this song. and ayu's voice, from the LQ version, sounds not so squeezed or hoarse as in NL album. Curtain call and Sunset are very beautiful songs, but ayu's hoarsy vocal made them a flaw.

looking forward now to the PV and the other 2 songs.

of course they do, its how they did the mega mashup. -_-
its just that her seasonal songs tend to blend. july first/fairyland/bluebird/greatful days/glitter. and then together when/jewel/no way to say/days/momentum.

no they do not sound exactly alike, but they have that annoying similarity that makes it a little too generic. Chances are, she's singing about love, lost love, found love, in second person singing to "you". she's crying in the music video, there's snow. then all her summer songs are happy joyful, upbeat, and have some of the same composition.

Lol. Like your post. But in Ayu's defence, they expect her - and every other J-Pop artist - to be that way. And thankfully she does manage to change it up at least a little every time.

I agree with her summer singles being similar, but not her winter ones.

I really don't think any of those songs sound similar at all, besides for the fact that they are all upbeat. @.@ Must just be me... xD
