i dunno whether it's a rumour ~ in fact, Tower records JP site did post the above-mentioned CD info

Can't wait to hear the song...I always love her end-of-year ballads. Let's hope this's her 22nd no.1 single. ^^

Yup me too! I always love her end of the year ballads always gorgeous of course, despite the title I'm looking very forward to hearing the new song and anticipating it won't be a stupid X-Mas song. I'm hoping it's as good as 'Dearest' but that's a long shot since that's my fav. Ayu song, somewhere along the lines of 'Voyage' I guess then.

I have a question; is the DVD-Audio going to contain the PV too? Or just the songs?

DVD-audio, as the name implies, only have an audio function
u can't see PVs on a DVD-audio, as for the 'RAINBOW' DVD-audio version
The only way u can see the PV is by buying the CD+DVD version

1 song 3 versions?! That's reli a SINGLE...

possible tracklist:
CAROLS 'Original Mix'
CAROLS (an acoustic version or a wintery dance remix)
CAROLS 'Original Mix' -Instrumental-

but i dun want an acoustic version... I want a remix
It was '4 songs 7 versions' last year for NWTS... unfair... I want more remixes!!!

I hope CAROLS is composed by a new composer or maybe even CREA or DAI... Just please something other than BOUNCEBACK or Yukimi...

People whined about 4 track singles and this is what they got, you better watch out or 2 track singles are on the way. :o

I hope it's NOT DAI. I do not want another 'WE WISH'.

Wee, I want a 2 track single like Hikki's Darekano! :tipsy

I wish Crea would compose.

I want a 'RAINBOW' calibur DAI, if I could get DAI on that level then all would be good.

If it was the same price, the single would definately pass 300,000 :yes :yes

I don't mind who composes, as long as it's something that I wont get sick of after the first listen.

Good point, need a stand the test of a few months kinda song.....

it's TRUEEE !! Check out this site and you'll see :

damn doesn't anyone read pass the first page of posts anymore, it's already updated on the avex ayumi official site.

I'd be surprised if some people even reads past the thread title. Somebody needs to edit the first post with Avex's confirmation as well as tag the topic with [CONFIRMED].

Wow...I hesitated to comment on this threat initially because I thought it was just YET ANOTHER rumor and I didn't really care for the title, but then I heard it was confirmed from another site and was like...WHAAA!? I'm surprised because the title sounds so unlikely and seems like it is being released too early in the year. If this song is tied up with a Drama though, it does make sense I suppose. And, the name isn't so bad. Besides, I'm confident that when I know the lyrics and hear the song, it will all come together and be great! I'm pre-ordering as soon as this hits yesasia! :yes

im surprised by the earliness too. i mean carols = christmas, but this single is being released at the end of october.... that's 2 months b4 christmas...

the different betwn AUDIO CD and DVD AUDIO is only 500 Ye, ahhh.. better get the DVD one.. Im also hoping that this single will be as good as Voyage/Dearest.. coz those two songs are AMAZINGLY beautiful..

9/29 would be the end of September. October is the 10th month.

Heh...but wouldn't it be fun if it were released two days before Halloween...then it could have a spooky Halloween theme. LOL! :tipsy
