100 out of 100 for the song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it was worth waiting!!!

the song is so gentle.. and soothing.. i like the tune of it!!!!!! oh gosh!!! repeating the video 10000 times now!

but the bad side, i dont like ayu's hair. she looks more "horizontal" with her hair and outfit.. and its evident that she gained quite some weight..... ??

I'm very surprised, I really like the song, it's very catchy though is piano music only. I want to hear the cd version!!
I do agree she has gained some weight but she looks very good

It really fits and it's very much what I wished for it to be, the more sad songs that's needed to balance up the total happiness attack of the rest of the tracks, haha.

I wish there was a song in mini album that would like "Memorial Address".

How can you say, coz you haven't heard the album version yet ;)

I love live version! Why I will not like album version? :P

That's not what I meant that you wouldn't like the album version. I meant that the album version might be better, although I love live version, especially concert ones.

I found that JEWEL is good song and fits for mini album.

yes because no one who knows music better than a babbling fan can't express when a singer is flat, sharp, pitchy, off key.

hunny just because you're a fan doesn't mean she never makes mistakes.

^I quite agree that the singing isn't perfect, but I'm certain the studio version will be close enough to perfect and that's the version you'll probably be listening to the most. Ayu's voice isn't at a high point right now >_<

Me too, although I'd prefer it to be rather different to JEWEL, or the album would get too boring.

Maybe 1LOVE will be like it? Or the yet-to-be-announced track?

It's the first time in a LONG time we see anything sad-tuned from Ayu, that probably has a great impact on peoples reactions right now. Everyone seem happy :).

I think the studio version will sound very good,and am happy with the song. Better than Moments though? In my opinion,absolutely no way.
I think she sounded out of tune(off pitch) as well,but I'm sure I will enjoy the studio version even more.Can't wait!

These are the lyrics as I see/hear them (there are a couple of parts I'm not sure about since I can't read too much kanji):

haiiro no shi ga koi (?) sora no shita wo kyo mo
arayuru yokubou ga umetsukusu
sono naka de hikari o mioshinawazu mae o
muite arukeru no wa itsumo kimi ga

kono machi no katasumi ni mo ketare no nai
mono ga nokotteiru koto oshiete kureru kara

tsukare hate takara nade nemuri ni tsuita kimi o
boku wa iki wo hisomete miteita
sekaichuu de tada hitori boku dake ga shitteiru
muobi (?) de itooshii yokogao

atari mae no you ni hizashi ga furisosogi
yasashii kaze yureta aru hi no koto

boku no naka de nanika ga sotto tsuyoku
tashika ni kawate yuku no wo hitori kanjiteita

kanashiku nanka nai no ni namida ga koboreta no wa
kimi no omoi ga itai kurai ni
boku no mune no oku no kizuato ni shimikonde
yasashisa ni kaete kureta kara

moshimo kimi ga kurai(?) kanashimi ni deattara
boku ni mo akete kureru to ii na
sono egao no tame nara nandatte dekiru darou
boku no taisetsuna takaramono
boku no taisetsuna takaramono

I haven't gotten goosebumps from listening to a song since the first time I saw the HEAVEN PV. But JEWEL...oh man, I don't know, JEWEL might surpass HEAVEN for me! @__@ Poor Ayu looked like she had a hard time staying on that chair with all the power she was putting into it. xD A little too much at times...but overall, the whole performance was quite breathtaking. I can't wait to see it in HD! *^_^* <3

Oh, I didn't remember that.. Now I can't wait either :D !!

^ Yesh...hopefully that way, we'll be able to see the talk too! I want to know if she talked about the mini-album. <3

The songs is very very nice. But I'd ant a version with a bit fuller arrangements, allthough I like this version. But it's a bit too simple for a "regualr version". I don't neccessarily want a full verison with percussion and el guitars and such, just a little more to make it full.

oh man!! Jewel really did not dissapoint me.. This song is so soothing and the piano is just so nice... Jewel is 1000/100 for me !

yea... so much emotions, THATS OUR AYU! overall, i love love love LOVE this song!

@petit - Ya, I think we can expect something way more full - arrangement wise. I'm pretty sure they won't use only a acoustic piano for the studio version.

Even if they do only use a acoustic piano, with the help of computers and the perfect atmosphere of a studio, it'll sound WAY better.

OMG I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!
anyone can translate the lyric plz?

It's really good ballad.....so I'm looking forward to see the lyrics too ^^
