^ I'm downright glad it's not the same melody. I very much prefer the connection between the two songs to be on the lyrics instead of recycling the melody.

I like it!! I'm surprised and quite pleased it's not a ballad, I really like the direction she took with it. It's very Christmasy and I love it for this :heart

Wow, this is something new for Ayu haha I need some time to digest it before deciding if I like it or not. But yeah, it's very Christmasy.

P.S. "We can feel the love tonight" is back

Not in love with it, but at least it does sound different. I wonder what I'll think of the fill thing lol.

i actually really like it, i just wish the chorus was a bit more rich than what it is. But this is nice. Very uplifting and happy compared to her other christmasy ballads.

The intro is a bit eh but aside from that , Winter diary sounds nice

A typical Winter song , I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing

Her English was really good at the beginning! Not a big fan of the song tho

Won't listen to this again. WTF is this shit? She need to get a new vocal recordist/editor/technique/mixer...just something. It literally just sounds like they add her vocals to an already mixed song in Garbageband then render it as a stereo MP3, it's that bad.

Seems that another preview snippet from Winter diary ～A7 Classical～ will be uploaded tomorrow

Wonder what will it be

Sounds quite dated and bland.

A mega mix of TK's most boring songs.
A mega mix of Nakano's most boring arrangements.

And the english beginning feels really forced.

Oh wow apparently they're going to decide based on the votes!

It doesn't do anything for me. The lyrics (so far) are really bland. Pity.

There was a poll already when I posted XD

I'm afraid Step by step will be next... I want Warning!!
23 hours for voting

Oops my bad I didn't see it just now haha

I voted for WARNING too

f*ck Warning, gimme sorrows!

Winter diary doesn't really sound that christmasy to me.
Strange preview.

Winter Diary is disappointing. You were... is much better

I want Sorrows put aside SbS

It reminds me of ABBA, somehow...

I liked the melody, but the final result is very bland...

Don't like the intro at all and the song's arrangement feels pretty bland.

the song sounds kinda weird.. but i have to wait for the full version to decide once again.. it's not that memorable like her usual winter songs.
