Winter diary (Preview)

Ayumi made a carol xD For now i takie it as b-side and main part will be classical versions of songs :> Beginning was fun but later very generic, i will like it but just like it ;-)

it's so generic =) filler song

Hmmmm, I was expecting for a slower-paced song but it's rather cheery! Very christmas-y also, even more than Close to you. This said, it didn't impress me but I like the direction she took with the song. Give it sometime and I may grow fond of it, but right now I wouldn't say this is an amazing song.

This will be my first time not going to listen the full song because of this high quality preview.


It sounds very disconnected to me.

The first video was only the chorus, it was 30 seconds long for anyone wondering why the first video was removed. I'm also not impressed by this unfortunately :// It's very christmas-ish but meh...

Wow, this is probably ayu's second Xmas anthem after Close to you. Its different from her other winter ballads. I kinda like it.

Love this a lot. Is super Christmasy. Probably the most Christmas-like song Ayu has ever made. I would totally see this as a cover of some general Christmas song lol It's so Christmas-like.

I'm not gonna listen until the full high quality, but I don't know what to think based off comments. I had a feeling it was gonna be a snoozer with TK working on it, but I see there are comments on it being Christmasy and that type of atmosphere might save it for me. I mean, I used to hate Close to you for how dull it was but now I loooove it for its unique atmosphere.

I LOVE IT, finally a real xmas song! Now i need to refrain myself from listening to the preview too much.

Ah.. I almost wanted to stop the song after hearing the beggining..very boring..

I actually like it. I think I've gotten to a stage now where if Ayu releases something that is somewhat unique to her discography I get quite excited haha.

I had no idea where the song was going melodically LOL. Wanted a sadder song too hahah! But i guess...

Sounds very TK.

I think this is OK. Looking forward to the classical arrangement of other songs though

It's not my cup of tea. The song is disconnected itself and I don't like it. Quite disappointed !

I LOVED IT!!!! Especially the part after chorus !!!

I'd like to hear something like Carols.. can't wait to listen the full version.

I like that the lyrics mirror those of summer diary and there's a direct reference to it (when she says "ano natsu mitai ni" -> like that summer after mimicking a sentence from summer diary) but I would have preferred a similar melody a la sunrise/sunset if she had to do this. In this way it kind of looks like she's reusing same lyrics instead of having a "proper" scheme like she had on sunrise/sunset.
Aside from that, the song is not bad, I like that it's so wintery. The first 30 seconds with that engrish re-hash of silent night was awkard as hell and I couldn't stop cringing tho.
