Hmmn, since I've listened to Chikai before, I assume it's no harm to listen to the new preview. Rush to the official website immediately... :P

Edit: Somehow I'm listening to Hatsukoi preview again. Goodness I need that song so much...

Have to agree. Definitely fits when you hear the site's preview. Now, I have to go back to not listening to any previews. Not ruining this for myself.

Hatsukoi short PV:

^
Such a beautiful song

I don't know if its the angle/light but she looks so skinny in the pv :( or maybe its just me. I think she is pretty anyway, and I hardly talk about artists bodies, but this got me a bit concerned.

The full song is very beautiful, and i think it will be a grower

I like the cover, but it is very similar to her Passion single cover. Anyway, I can't wait for the album.

Finally!!!!! Love the song so much!!

very melancholic and beautiful..i thik the album is shaping up to be very strong

The more I listen, the more I like it.

I've watched the entire 初恋 pv. Though I don't know the exact meaning behind it, I think it is the best one out of three (Forevermore and あなた). The scenery is very nice.

Full PV is here btw

It’s amazing,

This will def be my “ore no Kanajo” for this album :luv2:luv2

I feel weird! I'm not really feeling Hatsukoi. This is only her 3rd song ever that I'm not really into. (The other two being Kairo and Hymne a l'amour) Maybe it will grow on me?

^I hope it will grow on you, because it is definitely excellent :yes.

This is a beautiful song. I do wish she didn't try to cram every word into a melody that she possibly can because some of it sounds a little awkward sometimes, but regardless, the song is lovely and the bridge in particular is stellar.

She always love to cram a lot of words into the melody :P. I'm more concern about how she sings this song live. It's not as high as BLUE, but the key is still pretty high in the chorus lol.

Recochoku ranking 5.30:
- Single no. 1
- Hi-res no. 1
- Uta no. 1
- Video no. 2 (sigh...)

Hopefully it will have a stronger power than Play A Love Song :D.

I’m not exactly feeling “Hatsukoi” either. It’s the way she sings the choruses. The rest of the song is fine though.
