I'm honestly shaking, I don't remember the last time I was this excited for a J-Pop release.
|
I‘m super excited for it. This cannot be a letdown *fingerscrossed
|

In any case I am counting the hours, absolutely can't wait! |
EDM!!! It sounds promising. I havent been this excited for an ayu release in a long whileeee
|
At least it will definitely be something different from what we get since a long time.

Wooow it’s sounding great!! I’m relieved it doesn’t sound like the 90’s arrangements we had on some remixes. I expected something fresh. I’m so excited to hear the full thing.
|
Kinda sounds like a mix of Ayu’s version of Many Classic Moments and We are the queens from the insta snippet to me, you won’t catch me complaining if it ends up being so lol
|

|
That sounds amazing! :D I really can't wait to hear the final version!
|
I'm getting strong Nami Tamaki vibes from that snippet and I'm here for it.
|
Some sounds at the arrangement makes me nervous
|
|
Omg... it sounds so so good :weep :heart

Ahhhhhh this sounds awesome! That ending :heart

:weep :weep :weep :weep :weep :weep :heart
|
The ending is insane. wtf.
|
^Ikr
|
Wow it's been a while since I've really enjoyed an Ayu song the way I would have during the early 2000s! The full version was great!
|
Omg I am slayed. It's an instant classic... I don't have words to describe how happy and impressed I am. This song is everything...
|
The production quality seems amped up compared to anything from recent years... it's kind of astounding.
|
Now I can see why Ayu was so confident in doing that ayumix challenge preview. This blows the remixes out of the water (imo).
|
I really don't have words, haha. I really love the track, there's so many details to it. The drum beat in the background, her fierce vocals, the breakdown, that ending-! I haven't been this obsessed with a track since FLOWER...

I am a very long an loyal Ayu Fan but this song is the best since a very long time! |
Here is a MEGA link to that Baidu rip for now until the Spotify/YT Music/etc. versions pop up~
|
DAMN! This will go straight to my playlist once it's officially released on iTunes.
I hope it will sell well - best song I've heard in quite some time <3 |
I am PUMPED. Queen is back, no more shade.
|
This song is just so intense, I don't think she's had a track like this going this hard even since Sparkle...
|
It feels like everything was a blur since 2015 but THIS SONG MY GOD
|
I wonder if it's to refer to the past as a 'dream' and now this is reality?
|
Wohoo- I like the beginning and the verses more than the chorus. The end was unexpected though.
|
Amazing!
|
I'm happy to see everybody so pumped about the track, and while I also like it (love the instrumental parts that were in the preview, the bridge etc) I don't know what to think about the chorus yet. I feel like the arrangement doesn't really do justice to the chorus and it sounds a bit off. Maybe a more HQ version will change my mind, I don't know.
|
Hot damn! The woman has her mojo back!
Please please please mean this is a full album coming soon |
OH MY GOD!
I'm really disappointed everytime she has a safe, cheap sounding and uninspired release. And lately I have not been really happy... but I know sometimes she'll drop a bomb and that's why I'm still here. I know she still can do wonders. This song is not genius or else but... damn! It is so good! I was expected something as good as let's say... Sparkle. DaD already feels unique in her discography. I love everything in it. The voice, the diverse arrangements, the construction... You can tell this time they put some real efforts and thoughts into it and it shows. I also haven't been that excited since FLOWERS. Quote:
|
Can't wait to hear the song and loving reading everyone's thoughts! I'm waiting for it to hit Spotify!
|
I am PRAYING for a PV, maybe somethig like startin PV
|
Considering that there was only really one big release since M(A)DE IN JAPAN, I think it just felt like longer or that more had happened since things were soooo spaced out.
|
Love it! Love it! Love it! Yeeeeeeeees!
|
This is SO good!!! I loved everything about this :luv2

Hmmm I think I need to listen to it a few more times before making a set opinion - so far for me it's good, but not outstanding. I like that Ayu has taken a risk with this track, it's certainly more experimental than anything else she's released in a long time. But, I do feel there are parts where the arrangement and structure (the end of the song in particular...just why?) leave one wanting. It's a great start to a new era though, and will undoubtedly be fun to watch live.
|
The end of the song seems like a Party queen-Lonely queen moment materialized into a song finally as opposed to being live only.
|
I like it a lot! It definitely has some good surprises.
|
The HQ version is so, so good... probably going to be putting this on repeat for the rest of the day :tipsy There's so many details to this song, I hear something new every time.
|
^It sounds fantastic!
|
I like what I heard :love. I was just afraid that her voice would be too squeaky as in the acapella version, but this actually sounds good.
|
OMFG
THE QUEEN IS BACK! And Ayu saved 2020 XD |
The song is awesome! Love it ♥ The guitar bridge reminds me a little bit of fairyland, for some reason.
|
The ending gives me chills.
|
the perfect lovechild of identity and Song 4 U :luv2

I was such a bad mouth when I criticized TK when I heard that he was composing this song... it seems like he is still able to make impressive tunes lol I really like the song !! its like globe in their experimental days meeting Ayu.
|
BOPPPP
|
Love the full version! (but not gonna lie, a small part of me still prefer the ats version...)
|
Official audio on YouTube:
|
lol is the Spotify link rly leading to a totally different song? xD
Wanna add it to my playlist ._. |
I've been super excited about this song and it really doesn't disappoint. like, at this point I really don't care what flaw people might find with this song because I'm just so happy to have a ferocious upbeat song that I find to be so catchy.
Quote:
I hope this song gets the exposure it so deserves! I don't know how possible a (good quality) PV is for her right now but I hope there is one for this song! I really wish there were a good anime or film to tie this one with. I love this song so much. EDIT also that ending! I really did not expect the song to go to -that- direction. hahaha I was really caught off guard (in a good way) |
YESSSSS THIS SONG IS E V E R Y T H I N G
What a banger! I love ittttt <3 |
WOW. Just...wow. That guitar bridge is EVERYTHING!!!!
|
Quote:

to me if ohia no aki and dad its the beggining of a new ayu doing music
GIVE ME MORE now i want a PV dammed |
Quote:
I'm really happy with the song, honestly that bridge is everything, with the voice sampling and the guitars... instant classic! But I must say, almost more than the song, I think I'm just happy to see AHS come alive and be (fairly) unanimous as to the quality of the song! |
I liked the song, but not LOVED it. And I didn't think it's so much different from the things she did in the past years, sounds like an "updated" (it feels a bit weird 'cause it's a throwback-sounding song) version of A ONE songs like NO FUTURE and The Show Must Go On. But I'm really happy with the production quality of it.
It will be a fantastic concert song, though! |

Apparently the song in spotify is still greyed out
https://open.spotify.com/track/7nFHw...Q16xyBDN_ilJWQ whyyyyy:no |
Spotify drops at midnight in your region. So for the US, we have to wait till at least Eastern time hits midnight.

But they opened up after a few days to all, I assume it'll be the same for Dreamed a dream |

I’m glad so many people like it!
Personally... I think it needs to grow on me. I will say that I’m happy to have a memorable melody, and the production value seems much better than a lot of what she’s released in the past few years. She seems excited to work again so I hope this means she’s back! :) |

|
Thx for the information truehappiness^^
Then I can listen to it tomorrow before I go to work^^ |
Hope we can get a PV with good budget and visuals! maybe is too much to ask but one can only dream a dream (see what I did there? lol)
|
has anyone dabbled with romanising/translating the lyrics?
Quote:
|
THIS. IS. SO. GOOD.
And the lyrics are beautiful as well. Damn, Ayu. Killing it. |
Just listened to the song for the first time and ugh... it's an iconic, ground-breaking, show-stopping anthem. :weep
It's even more incredible than I expected it to be, I'm so happy right now. :luv2 |

Ayumi's signature pose! LOL
I like the song. I'm happy she's making music again! |

I actually like with chord version better, I found the actual version arrangement a bit too busy
|
Arranged by Yuta Nakano
|
I also prefer ats' remix, I really hope Ayu approaches some of the remix creators and asks them to create full versions. :)

I love the lyrics; so uplifting that I felt like crying as I read it while listening to the song. they give me the impression that she wrote this with a long-time and very dear friend in mind, instead of a romantic partner. the idea of quarrelling with a good friend, making up, acknowledging diverged paths, while staying true to each other, and chasing a common dreammake me so emotional as I think about my good friends :love |
OMG this song is so hot. I thought I'd be disappointed but damn, she proved me wrong.
When was the last time she released sick beat like this? Talkin' 2 Myself perhaps? I'm so happy that it's not another ballad. |
I really love it, I prefer this version to the remixes, the remixes were good but as someone said, they sound like remixes not original tracks, they are a bit too edgy and lack of melody to me. This version sounds more balanced and memorable to me.
|
Oh boy, I am blown away by the song! Is EVERYTHING, it has a urgent feeling to it that gets me so hard, for me, SHE DID IT!
|
JUST LOVE IT! Amazing!
|
Thanks for the lyrics Koumori and remove-mom I love them, they scream ayu to me and they are very meaningful with a great message. The song keeps growing on me and it was already amazing at the beginning :luv2 I hope it charts well, it deserves it so much!
|
Quote:
P.s. Thank you @remove-mom for the lyrics! |
I think the 'partner' bits do refer to Max especially since he's producing her actively again after not doing it for like 20 years.
