I think I'm going to buy this single. It sounds really good, and its so cheap!

[YuriChan]

WOAH!! That's awesome! I've recommended her to a friend that's a JROCK fan! ^_^

I've still not heard the full version yet .__.
I wish I knew what the first press, I might consider buying it

[Sakura_Genki]

Vampire Knight airs soon so we'll get to hear the song from that.

On the official site it says content undecided so maybe they've not decided on the bonus yet?

A little doll would be cute, but that's not going to happen XD

[Sakura_Genki]

XD That would be the cutest! A little Kanon and a little red cello.

[WillofDusk]

Any rip out yet? I cant wait to listen to the song

[bondingo]

I want the song/single to leak so badly. The preview sounds amazing. I very well may buy this single if the first press extras are anything interesting.

[Sakura_Genki]

I found them!

Vampire Knight ending @ Youtube.
Short promo clip for still doll single @ Youtube

Also two pictures of Kanon from 2006 from some kind of performance.

[octocoffee]

^ Holy crap thanks so much for that! The song sounds really great. The full version should be fantastic. The ending is so creepy.

[WillofDusk]

I love the song, its so beautiful and mysterious XD, I think I have to buy the single lol

I can't wait to hear the full version o____o
Gah, it's so beautiful.
Mana picked a star here

You know what?
I'm going to go and pre-order this single right now.

Edit~ I've never been so obsessed with listening to a preview before o___O
It's so haunting.

[Beauty4123]

the still doll PV airs today: http://www.m-on.jp/regular/detail161.html

[Sakura_Genki]

Mana's good at picking musicians with amazing qualities~

Thanks for that Beauty4123!

Looking forward to seeing the pv, shame her single isn't going to be in DVD versions .__.

Maybe on the album, huh?

Still anxious to know what the bonus is going to be -___-
Pre-ordered it anyway

Thanks Sakura

[Sakura_Genki]

I'm looking forward to the PV, the short promo clip looks promising.

An album would be great, but it's a bit too early for that ._.

I'm anxious to know what the bonus would be too~ I've been looking and asking around but I've got nothing back. A poster wouldn't be bad I suppose since I love how Kanon looks for this single.

I loved how the promo looked, exactly what I would expect from Mana tbh

Maybe an album by the end of the year?
That'd be nice, a winter album.
I'm feeling optimistic about Kanon

I'd love a poster as well
But how cute would a little doll be. Not a big one, maybe just the size of a japan mini, a little material one. I'd love it.

[Sakura_Genki]

Me too~ It says Mana all over. With his Kanon producing I hope he still has time for Moi dix Mois. I'm so anxious about getting news of their 'rumoured' new single. Mana's already confirmed a new song for Moi dix Mois.

That would be gorgeous~
I can image a gorgeous winter angel kind of outfit/booklet.

A poster would look nice, but a doll would be even better. Maybe I should drop another one of my annoying emails off to Mana and demand him to make Kanon dolls with little cellos.

Hahaha, maybe you should ^___~

Eeep, I'm excited about new Moi dix Mois releases too, it's been a while since I've been really interested in the music but listening to Kanon has made me want to listen to all the records I have again

Siigh, a winter album would be so beautiful
I love her style, and her voice. She's the most talented I've heard in a long time, and her cello is amazing <3
